''They control the temperament on the field,'' said Kansas defensive coordinator Clint Bowen, who was interim coach last season when Charlie Weis was dismissed. ''You need to get your guys to understand that a good play doesn't mean go crazy and get too excited and a bad play doesn't mean get all down. I think the captains being on the field will keep that under control.''

The 'neighborhood' call is stupid and makes me mad every time. Touch the base when you have the ball if you want the out.)
