We would most likely need a defensive touchdown to win this game. Our offense simply can't produce enough to outgun McCoy and Shipley.

I have been around internet slang for years... never ever have seen this until football forums.. I am feeling it means you have something in your koolaid that makes you think a crazy way?

Someone explain please.

It's a reference to Jim Jones and Jonestown. Jones forced his followers to drink Kool-Aid laced with cyanide. Ever heard of wikipedia?

Drinking the Kool-Aid

Just wait to see the officiating in the CCG if the Big 12 has a chance to put a team (Texas) in the MNC game.

Look what happened to Kansas when they had a chance to beat Texas in 2005. A phantom Offensive Pass Interference call that cost them the game.

We dang well better take care of business. If we don't, I will get to hear from these myopic K-State fans all year (I'm a Kansan). I generally like KU fans, but I have yet to run into a K-Stater that doesn't think A) that college football started in the 1990's, B) that their school is the premier one in the state, and C)Montgomery Burns is the greatest coach of all time.

Looking around on other Husker sites.

Our Kansas friends have some really rosy glasses through which they view last year's game. Kansas earned a mere 28 points in the game, against a defense still learning the system. The garbage-time touchdown scored with two minutes to play makes them feel better about the outcome, but it was still a ten-point loss against a learning defense.

 

I dig the optimism, I really do. I like the Jayhawks and really think they've got a good team. But let's not lose touch with what really happened last year.

 

i guess i could pull the old, Sharp with broken ribs, meyer injured, reesing injured but still scored against your D defense.

I cannot believe so many of my Big Red faithful think a victory in Lawrence is so assured. The teams are fairly equal on paper and they have HFA. Underestimating the Hawks is a bad idea, IMO. Yes, they have an inexperience OL, but we have an inexperienced QB who hasn't really played many meaningful downs. If I had to bet, I would probably bet on NU, mainly because we're better on paper, but there's a reason we play the games.
