I don't know why you didn't like it accountability, it was an exciting game. I am very sad that we lost, I thought we had them. We made som huge mistakes. That said, it definitely had some great plays as well and was a good game for a college football fan to watch.
jayhawk, I haven't looked to see the fallout yet for Mangino, what are your thoughts on his situation? I am sure that the ending to that game couldn't have helped him at all. Completely bungled that game away.
To be fair, Rell's runs were on passes out into the flats. I think KU is not built to line up horses and smash people in the face, especially since Toben Opurum is out. If he was here, I would maybe take a different view. But in the end, KU gets 2 first downs, we win. We didn't, so we lost. MUs kicker is the most accurate in the country this year, so 3 runs and punt was not going to likely win. Rell is a small back, you never know, but he is not a great between the tackles runner. Of course, since we didn't win, it looks like the way to go. But, I can see why they just ran the offense that had worked pretty well all day to try and get the 2 first downs to force MU to burn that last time out and run the 2:30. Obviously I wish we could redo it and try the running, since I know already the plan failed. Given the situation, I would have run my offense, though. I guess I woulda lost too.
