    Gave it away.

    Gave away 20 points.

    Two missed chip shot field goals.

    Two fumbles inside the 5 yard line.

    KU breaks their 23 game FBS losing streak.

    At least we still have FIU on our schedule!

    Too many turnovers but overall played way better than last week. This one hurts bad because we were so close, BUT our Dawgs showed heart.
    I don't feel as bad as last week!

    Proud of the effort from our team. Missed field goals & fumbles by an inexperienced kicker, first time starter QB, and a BEAST of a running back that was just trying to get into the end zone. Hard to swallow but I saw much improvement and flashes of what could be if we continue to improve. Higgins must have been reincarnated since last week - he was way better.

    Still should have won by 2-3 scores BUT turnovers kill.

    Re: Gave it away.

    One example of poor planning and a lack of preparation: Our new coach gave away 2 scholarships, even before he met his existing players, to Logan McPherson (K,P) and Kyle Fisher (K). McPherson wasted no time proving he wasn't ready by putting his/our first kickoff of the season in Raleigh out of bounds and averaging 36 yards per punt, then horrible punting again in the Lamar game and then 2 more duds in the Tulane game. then finally CSH let the punter WE ALREADY HAD, a walk-on from last year (Shouse), come in and show us some great punting, like we saw in every practice LAST YEAR! Then today, apparently just to stubbornly prove he was not wrong, CSH started McPherson again. Shame on you for sticking it to the Tech Nation and to OUR PUNTER.

    Re: Gave it away.

    We did GIVE the game away today. I just think we actually looked better than we have all year. Yes, Kansas is a terrible team, but we played Lamar and Tulane and we made Tulane look awesome. Today, we handed it to them on a platter, but the O-line played better, the defense played good, we had really exciting moments and we had a lot fewer 3 and outs. I think we can win a couple and last week I would have not had any hope.

    Chip, punting hurt us vs. Tulane. It hasn't hurt us in any of the other games. Average punt yardage is not the best indicator, but that hasn't been bad. Return yards is the best indicator and return yards have been minimal in all but the Tulane game.
