Thursday and the good news is the football weekend kicks off with what I think could be a fun matchup, K-State vs. Nebraska. Gridiron for today previews the "Hawk Bowl" a game for redshirts and those that aren't seeing much PT.
As for KU football it's still a slow week as their are no media activities with the coaches out on the road. As mentioned yesterday Coach Gill was in Garden City checking in on Maurice Couch and it REALLY sounds like we're in a good spot with him. Potential game changer or at the very least a big boost if Kansas can bring him aboard.
Today we've got a statistical post coming from Warden. Not the typical tale of the tape but more an effectiveness of Kansas through five games in different scenario's.

Shameless plug here. Not KU related in the least, but my cousin who is from the KC area plays soccer at Notre Dame and she spent some of her summer volunteering abroad. I know we've got a few soccer fans around here so maybe this relates in a round-about way.

A 35-year-old man was charged in Missouri with possessing marijuana after his girlfriend called 911 and said she was tired of him smoking pot all day instead of working....I just couldn't help myself.
