Should be a high scoring game. Both sides will score. I wouldn't count this as win until the game is over.
Naw that can't be right. According to the resident *&^#$ in here anyone saying something like that is being negative. Just love it when the experts come out and say something i have said days before. Then watch those who bash me for saying it, try to spin things.

Bashing for an opinion that it'll be close? I have no problem with anyone who thinks it'll be close or that we'll lose. I think they're wrong, but no issue whatsoever with holding the opinion.
Tigers cover the spread IMO. Game isn't close.

They have a decent offense, and will probably put up some points. If we don't give the game away with turnovers and special teams mistakes, we win....period.
Do not look past their Juco All American RB who rushed for over 1600 yards and 22 TDs last year. And 161 yards and 2 TDs last week.

Do not be surprised to see KU stacks 8 in the box and forces Lynch to try and beat them with the pass. Do not know how he looks in practice but he was off with his down field passes this past week. What few they threw down field. The key this week will be our wide outs and lynch. And if they can move a few of the defenders out of the box with some mid range completions. If they cannot then KU will stack the box until they do.

I'm not exactly sure where hera is, but wherever it is, it is elevated.... and it is within some structure....

Lynch threw about 10 passes Saturday night...most of which were about 6 yards. There was no need to open up the offense against an overmatched defense. Please stop with the hand wringing.

Pshaw. A coach is saying that the next opponent his team faces has strong points and shouldn't be overlooked?

I mean he did say that Kansas was looking past their first and most winnable game.

RE: Kansas
Good grief. I suppose there is always a chance that Kansas could win, but what, maybe one time out of a 100? Did anybody actually watch them play last Saturday? Worry about a game where the outcome is reasonably in doubt. Like Bowling Green on the road, lol.
If we lose to Kansas, we would have to be so bad that we might not win another game all season. Does anybody here really believe that?
And before anybody says it, we can be confident all we want. None of us are suiting up Saturday. Let Fuente worry about that stuff.

Triple A...you are 100% correct.
But, as a Tiger football fan, do you not have a little guy in the back of your brain that is telling you, "It's Tiger football, we are going to find a way to screw it up, lay an egg and limp our way to a 5-7 record, and 10,000 in the stands for Senior Day"?
In reality, you are dead on. I'm with you. Just having my heart-broken so many times before, I can't help to think we'll go Ben Stiller in the prom scene, from "Something About Mary"...

Starting to think dude is a football troll. Never seen someone hype up a ****** Kansas team like this. It's like someone hyping up the Larry Porter tiger teams.

Let them go ahead and stack the box. Lynch threw for over 3,000 yards that lead to 10 wins last season and has two full season of experience under his belt... I am fine with a game plan that depends on his ability to lead this team up and down the field...

If they are going to continuously stack 8 in the box, then Lynch will be on Heisman watch after the game, and Mayhue's quarterback rating will go from 799 to 4000.
