Condensing two threads into one. Maybe I should have waited until tomorrow and that would be more accurate.

I'll check my DirecTV on-screen guide to see if the game is available on TV.

I'm seeing ESPN Plus at 1 on the schedule.

I doubt it will get much network play since it's opposite the Peach Bowl.

We're at 22 point underdog.

No way...Bet the house, your life savings, and your car on Kansas. They'll be up 22 midway through the first half.

Is this game on ESPN3 as well as ESPN+
I got a subscription to +, but not sure if I needed one.

Game Time...

EMU leads KU 5 - 2.

Yeah, not a bad start. Still only 10-7 4 minutes in. Are we the only 2 watching?

Toure sucks on D. EMU sucks on O. Absolutely no plan for what they'll do with the ball.

Though EMU stayed solid for the first 10 minutes (or at least within 6 or 8). Not bad against the #5 team in the country.

But, yes I agree. I wonder what this team would look like if they played/practiced offense.

Down by 21 at the half, on the way to a 40 point loss. Another pathetic performance.

Unfortunately, this is what we expected.

While a 46-25 deficit at half is hardly a moral victory, it is against the #5 team in the country so could have been worse... like the Duke or Rutgers game. EMU has looked much better in this and the TCU games.

Progressing in the right direction??

No progress. We're overrated.

Oh was there a game today?

In Murphy's defense it does have to be difficult doing a job when everybody knows you suck at it.

Not everyone, unfortunately.

Not the blood bath I feared.

Hopefully this is the end of the Thompson/Toure experiment. Or you can expect a similar score next Friday.

Not a blood bath at all. Almost what I would have expected if EMU was playing to it’s potential (almost).

I do agree with Sam, Toure/JT4 need to be separated. Both started today, but may have been a matter of Kansas being such a big team. I am hoping different for the Buffalo game, but we will see...

On the game not being a bloodbath: We didn’t cover the spread, so let’s not fall over ourselves with relief.
