It seems like it has been since 2008 for KU to have a game where they managed down and distance properly for 4 quarters. Leipold's Buffalo teams were physical, nasty teams on both sides, particularly on the line of scrimmage. He doesn't have the horses on defense yet but he does have a big O-Line that is starting to understand what leverage and technique can do when married up with attitude. The first drive against TX was a thing of beauty. Neal getting good yards each carry, setting up Daniels for play action. 3rd and manageable for most of the game and KU kept getting first downs. Keeps the burden off of the QB and keeps the defense off of the field. It is the formula to beat TCU.
The trick this week is staying away from a big letdown. I don't know the numbers but each time KU has won a game or played a team like OU tough, it seems like we get blown out the next game. If the boys can show up focused and give the same effort as last week, there is no reason they will not beat TCU. This is the next step for the team to take. Put back to back wins together!
