Two mistakes by the offense: 2 INTs
Two mistakes by the defense: 2 dropped INTs
Two mistakes by Special Teams: fumbled punt and missed XP returned for 2 pts.
KU might have survived 4 of them but 6 self-inflicted mistakes was too many. They just aren't quite there yet. the future is bright as they will only continue to improve but these were two very winnable games the last two weeks and KU walked away from them 0-2.

Yup.
That and a 7 point mistake by the officials.

Apologies if this was discussed before. That blocked extra point return for 2 turned out to be huge. KU late 4th and 5 interception in the end zone-without those 2 points, it would have been a 2 point lead-KU kicking short field goal for the lead.

I think if we had any faith in our kicking team we wouldn’t have gone for it in the 4th.
Our kicking game is BRUTAL

Kansas should be 10-1. That is tough to take. The dropped pick at OSU also cost us. To take the game out of the hands of bad calls, you can't make mistakes. The winning margin was extra point mistakes

Errr.
That’s too Sparko for me.
I’ll say we should be 8-3.

I am still stoked.
7-4 seemed a long ways away last year.
1 possession games with our 2nd string QB down.
This team is building something great.

The F1 race in Las Vegas starts in a little over 45 minutes.
Hopefully, I'll be asleep.

Meh.
Third string quarterback.
Doesn’t matter.
If I was ksu I’d be embarrassed.

Bobbling the ball has been a clear standard for incomplete pass for years.
I’m fine with the call.
If it had been called incomplete to begin with then that’s the call too.
Instant review should only be for obvious overturns.
No problem with the final call, just saying with the ball moving an NFL crew would probably ruled incomplete. The guest booth official tonight thought it was incomplete. I'm just saying that ruling wouldn't have been "ridiculous".

Some odd in-game coaching errors again should be talked about. Wilson fielding a bad kick in traffic. Blocking not accounting for rushers on XP. Bad play calls on a couple of first downs.
And a bobble and completed catch OOB is incomplete. Except KState. The loveable soil samplers. One penalty. One.

No.
I actually weirdly agree if it was the NFL that call would be reversed.
Not certain why.
I like in the spirit of how replays should be called that it stood.

KSU's defense was ass tonight. They should have lost by three touchdowns. They were gifted this pretty clearly. I want to see this team clean up the garbage and rise to the challenge in the last two

That muffed punt. I hate even catching them. There is also almost always a penalty. Take. The. Ball.

7-4 is great and all, but this team should be 10-1 and looking forward to playing for that WWE belt. Lance and staff are great, but they have made some shit decisions that have cost KU a minimum of 3 games.
