I think we're bound to have some sort of letdown, which in this case means a closer win than we'd think.

Plus, I heard ARob has been sick this week...not sure if he'll be 100%.

31-20 Clones win...

Unless Arnaud has a rough game (I doubt it), this won't be close.

38-17. Not a blow out but always in complete control of the game.

32-6 ISU

Considering Kansas's recent performance against b12 teams, that still counts as a letdown game score for ISU

I hope he is doing alright because he's a great guy as well as a great player so I want him to have another 1,000 yard season for the books, but running back is the one position where we can afford to have one or two guys go down and still have D-1 caliber back-ups ready to jump into the line-up. If we had to be short a guy, running back is the place for it.

I think people are giving to much credit to a Kansas offense that has been horrible and is without it's QB and one of their only playmakers. Defense will hold, I just hope our offense can let loose for once.

What I expect and want to see 31-3 Clones.

What it will be if the players don't come out and play like they did last week: 14-13 Jayhawks

KU shows up, gets hit coming off the bus and immediately goes home seeking out the meaning of life.

ISU wins 0-0.

ISU 31 KU 28 OT. "letdown" but still a win, KU turns it over in OT and Mahoney is the hero.

OT? If we let KU take it to OT, we are ****** for the rest of the year.

ISU 54- KU 17

They get 14 of those points in the second half when everyone on the field is second and 3rd string.

Anyone scared of their QB since he has yet to play?

Not unless he can somehow be amazing enough to cover for all the points KU's defense has been letting everyone score on them.. And losing Beshears is a big loss as well

I think a lot of you are giving too much credit to KU's offense as well as ISU's offense.

ISU-24
KU - 6
I agree with this 101%, but I also think that some KU turnovers will allow the Cyclones to score more than 24 points.

Very true, but he was redshirting so he was on the depth chart and likely did not get a chance to start.


That's the first I've heard anyone say he was redshirting. That wouldn't even make sense given that they are starting young guys instead. I thought he just fell out of the running pretty quick in fall camp and that's why he hadn't played.

Edit: I stand corrected, according to the Tokepa Capital Journal he was redshirting (http://cjonline.com/sports/football/2010-10-28/kus_no_3_qb_to_start_in_ames). I have to assume that it was a "redshirt because I'm not on the depth chart" thing though rather than saving him for the future.
