Arizona's Unimpressive Day

Not impressed with Tommy Lloyd’s coaching this game. Kansas is running the same plays and Arizona hasn’t figured them out. Annoying.

Big 12 Expansion Still Feels Odd

Arizona @ Kansas is fun but this just doesn’t feel like a conference game.

Kansas Uniform Complaints

I know it's the norm now, but I will not apologize for my unwavering belief that if you're at home, you wear the home whites (Kansas)

Now get off my lawn
