Is Kansas really that bad?
From Fox Sports preview:

Quote:HOW MANY GAMES DOES KANSAS WIN?
--Bruce Feldman: One, and it won't be an FBS win, but David Beaty took over the bleakest situation in major college football in years.

--Stewart Mandel: One. And that's the first game against South Dakota State. Thanks a lot, Charlie.

--Joel Klatt: One. I like David Beaty, but I can't remember a Power 5 team in such bad shape. ... Oh wait -- Colorado was really bad.

--Clay Travis: Zero. If they don't beat South Dakota State, which I don't think they will, they go 0-12.

Yikes. I realized they were not good but I did not realize they were that bad... Guess that means I will be enjoying a win in Lawerence.

Always a good idea to let a team play a game or two before conclusions like these are reached. Note Memphis last season. 03-wink

If we waited that long, we'd have nothing to talk about.

I don't think they had a lot of talent to begin with and I also believe they are at a low scholarship level for this year.

Let us hope the players dont buy into this and overlook them. Could end up being a bad loss that bleeds into the psyche of the players and coaches for the remainder of the season.

The young man that had won the QB job got hurt and is out for the year.

Always respect your opponent. Talk wins every few games.

Honestly this game scares me a little bit just because of the potentially HORRIBLE blow it could deal the entire season. I visited their fan forum, and they don't seem to have much hope. Let's pray we don't give them any reason to believe early in the game.

Scares me a bit too - don't overlook the fact that they still have a lot of talented football players. They played some really good teams close, at least at times, last year. You can't just show up and win against them.

Kansas's coaches and players fully expect to beat us. They will fight hard - we must execute.

Personally, I think our guys will relish slobberknocking a p5 program. 50 points on a big 12 opponent will turn some heads.

We should beat the brakes off of Kansas. But we all have doubt because this winning stuff is kinda new to us. Same with BGSU. The fact that they are road games worries me.

We will utterly destroy Kansas and send a message to P5. We will win by at least 4 TD's. Bowling Green is scarier then Kansas. They keep going on about us losing 8 starters and the D coordinator. They have no idea how many guys played last year due to our depth or how long our D coordinator has been at Memphis.

This will be a bloodbath.

Even Charlie Weiss referred to his own team as a 'piece of s*!t' on national tv. Kansas is that bad. Heckuva chance for Memphis.
