Did Byron Pringle save our season?
If he doesn't run his ass off here it's 16-10.
That would have made it 19-13 before the Cowboys last drive. Which would have made Dak a lot less desperate. Holy **** byron ****ing pringle |

And I think what pisses me off the most is that our receivers have no reason to be dropping these balls like this. It's not like Pat is out here leading guys into potentially career ending hits across the middle. There's no need for the yips. |

I don't have a good number of how many were thrown behind the receiver, but the INT last night sure was. Normally Kelce pulls that one in and we go about our business. There have also been a couple of tipped ball INTs that weren't tipped in the past. It looks like the timing is still off a bit.

Terrible drop by Kelce. Awesome hustle play by Pringle.

Yeah, there's really no justification for these drops. I wonder if part of it is that the offense is getting played tighter so fewer guys have open space in front of them as they catch the ball. So they're just not as used to getting those 'poorly placed' balls that allow them to defend themselves since in years past, they haven't need the ball thrown there. They're used to catch and run balls and they're still operating as though that's what they're going to get. But man, playing against these bombshell defenses with guys coming downhill as the ball is being delivered, you try to do that every play and you'll get your receivers heads taken off on a weekly basis. |

Gotta catch that ball but Kelce was focusing on the run after the catch before he secured it. And I don't even blame him - that play was set up for another 20 YAC yards. But Kelce just has to bring that ball in. |

Byron Pringle played 62% of snaps this week compared to 32% by Mecole Hardman.
Pringle is the #2 WR. |

Whoa! Settle down there, little guy. I wasn't disrespecting KSU. My wife is a KSU fan. I am a KU fan. But I have much respect for Snyder. I give her crap all the time but I admit that Pringle is a player that just does what's asked of him and always plays hard.

Pringle had a great game. A couple really nice kick returns, a huge 37-yard catch, and that tackle to possibly save a touchdown.

That about has to be wrong, but that's the best I have at the moment. But yeah, that pass was as good as you can ask for. Right, and frankly, if KU football could find a Bill Snyder, that would be the best case scenario. Hopefully Leipold is that guy, but it's unlikely he can build what Snyder did. |

Save our season?
No. Make a great hustle play? Yes. |
