“I’m pleased with our identity,” Beaty said. “That was the big thing for me to see our identity as we were playing games. We’ve talked a lot about playing at a high tempo and being able to see that carry over to the football field has been good to see.”

Beaty said his offensive players were able to watch situations on tape during the off week where the defense presented additional opportunities. The Jayhawks are taught to look for certain signs of fatigue in their opponent, and when that happens, they’re asked to speed it up.

Most of Cozart's deep balls have been overthrows this year, and that continues a trend of inaccuracy on long throws from years past. The KU coaches worked with the quarterbacks on their accuracy over the bye week, having them aim throws into nets deep down the field.
Likens says most of the time inaccuracy stems from a quarterback’s feet and that player being off balance. He said some of Cozart’s throws, though, simply needed more touch.
First-year Kansas football coach David Beaty talks with media members about what the Jayhawks addressed during their bye-week work, and the preparation involved for KU's first road game of the season, at Rutgers.
