KU vs. Throatslashers game thread

[chiefqueen]

So far........

KU - 7

NU - 2

[Coach]

ROFL @ throatslashers

[KCFalcon59]

blocked punt....TD KU

[chiefqueen]

ROFL @ throatslashers

It's not as clever as Zero-U (for OU) but IMO its original and appropriate.

BTW......

KU - 14

ThroatslashEEES - 2

with KU driving

[chiefqueen]

Swanson intercepted

[chiefqueen]

KU ball on own 23.

[Imon Yourside]

Gee I'm so happy we get to see texas play baylor instead of my hawks.

[Imon Yourside]

40 yard shuffle pass to the (N)owledge 30.

[chiefqueen]

Gee I'm so happy we get to see texas play baylor instead of my hawks.

Is this a complaint I'm hearing about the Big XII "wonderful" TV package?

[Imon Yourside]

Is this a complaint I'm hearing about the Big XII "wonderful" TV package?

yeah the wonderful baylor bears have been on tv about 5 times this year and KU once. It's all about texas.

[chiefqueen]

I don't where you live but KU FB will have the rest of their games on TV after today.

[Bugeater]

GOd, we SUCK!!!!!!

[chiefqueen]

1st and goal on the NU 7

[Imon Yourside]

I don't where you live but KU FB will have the rest of their games on TV after today.

So the Clone game will be on next week with a possible bowl birth at stake?

drive stalls at the 3, fg is good 17-2!

[Bugeater]

The KU fans might as well tear the goal posts down at halftime.

Thanks for occupying our spot as bottum feeders, muchos gracias!

Yes, but it's the Sat. after Turkey day, your significant other (if you have one) may be having you decorate or something.

In my case, the queenmum will be here & will probably want to go to a movie or shopping.

[Bugeater]

No problem, the more we suck, the sooner we can get Callahan out.

[chiefqueen]

No problem, the more we suck, the sooner we can get Callahan out.

That's why KU fans want this game SSSSSSSSSSSSSSOOOOOOOOOO BAD. NU will probably be wiser with their next hire.

[Bugeater]

Dammit! We just scored!

[Imon Yourside]

Yes, but it's the Sat. after Turkey day, your significant other (if you have one) may be having you decorate or something.

Luckily I think my wife will be working that saturday so I can lounge lazily around the house. :)

TD Throatslashers

KU 17

NU 9

[Imon Yourside]

halftime 17-9 good guys.

[Spicy McHaggis]

Charlton Keith is going to be playing for money next year. That guy has had a great year.

[Imon Yourside]

7 minutes into the 3rd quarter N is punting from their own 21.

[Imon Yourside]

Dammit fumble N recovers at KU 20.

[Coach]

*As Chris Berman* Oh, it's a fumble!

[Imon Yourside]

TD bad guys, now 17-15 with 2 pointer pending, were gonna blow it.
2 pt convo intercepted still 17-15 and our offense is sputtering again.

[Coach]

Nebraska scored a TD.

[Coach]

2 point failed.

KU still have the lead. 17-15.

[Imon Yourside]

Cornish for 70 yards! TD GOOD GUYS!!!!!!!!!!

[Spicy McHaggis]

Good for Jon. He really busted his ass this offseason and it shows.

[Imon Yourside]

already kicked the ep.

[Braincase]

Look slike KU has found a running game... another long run, this time Green. 1st down KU in Nebraska territory.

[Spicy McHaggis]

One of my fellow high school alums just had a tackle. Sniff, memories.

[Coach]

Northwestern defeats Iowa 28-27.

[Imon Yourside]

End of the 3rd, 24-15 KU and their punting from the (N)owledge 42.

[Spicy McHaggis]

Northwestern defeats Iowa 28-27.

Glad I'm not working today. Our manager is a huge Iowa fan.

[Imon Yourside]

1st and 10 N, from their own 2 1/2.



SAFETY BIATCHES!!!!!!!

[Spicy McHaggis]

Safety!!!

[Imon Yourside]

Last time we beat the cornholers I wasn't even born, 1968 is dead to me.

[Mr. Kotter]

Holy crap.....how the mighty have fallen. :shake:

RCJHGKU! :KU:

[DJay23]

Last time we beat the cornholers I wasn't even born, 1968 is dead to me.
Save that shit for 0:00, please.

[Imon Yourside]

I must emphasize, a big shout out to Bill Callahan, once a faider always a faider.

KU driving at the (N)owledge 21, 3rd and 1.

[Braincase]

Somewhere Frank Solich is laughing his ass off.

[Imon Yourside]

1st and 10 good guys at the bad guys 24. KU now using the Schittenheimer approach of 3 qb sneaks to kick a fg.

[Imon Yourside]

HAHAHA 1st and goal at the (N)owledge 10.

[Braincase]

Damn. KU is going to find a way to get into the end zone again. Huskers are looking for time-killing runs, and Swanson is airing it out.

[Coach]

Somewhere Frank Solich is laughing his ass off.

And that somewhere is in Ohio.

[Imon Yourside]

bleh, 3rd and goal at the 11, bring the fg team in now!

[4th and Long]

May we have a score, quarter and time remaining please?

[Imon Yourside]

TD MARK SIMMONS!!!!!!!!!!! fade pattern, the streak is over...i repeat the streak is OVER!!!!!!!!

[Coach]

Any throatslashing gesture from Challahan?

Heh heh.

[Lzen]

Today is the day, my Jayhawk brethren!! :)

[Imon Yourside]

Any throatslashing gesture from Challahan?

Heh heh.


yeah i think it means he's quitting after this game.

[Mr. Kotter]

Game's in Lawrence, I take it?

[Imon Yourside]

Game's in Lawrence, I take it?


Yup and the (N)owledge faithful left early in the 4th quarter.

[chiefqueen]

Let's use correct grammar, now:

KU - 33

ThroatslashEES - 15

[Spott]

I bet people in Lincoln will be jumping off bridges today. I never thought I'd see the day when MU & KU would beat Nebraska in football in the same season.

[Coach]

I bet people in Lincoln will be jumping off bridges today. I never thought I'd see the day when MU & KU would beat Nebraska in football in the same season.

I would imagine it would be utter chaos if K-State beat Nebraska at Lincoln as well.

[Pitt Gorilla]

I bet people in Lincoln will be jumping off bridges today. I never thought I'd see the day when MU & KU would beat Nebraska in football in the same season.Not just beat, but OWN Nebraska.

[Imon Yourside]

Most points scored by KU against (N)owledge since 1891 even before Max can remember.

I know it's a big lead, without much time, and a stellar KU D, but if NU pulls this out I'm holding all you bastards responsible. You're tempting 36 years of bad mojo with all of this early celebrating.

Lighten up francis, it's 40-15 with 5:23 seconds left, even horseface couldn't pull this out.

Normally, I would agree with you, but c'mon man, relax. The score is 40-15 with about 4 minutes. No way we lose this game. 38 years of NU domination is over, baby!!! :) :) :)

Thanks! but you better get your tv tuned to the big 12 north championship game, it's 7-0 CU with MU driving.

[Mr. Kotter]

It's both, my brotha. :thumb:

Wouldn't that be sweet?!

Jayhawks going to a BCS bowl every year for the next 30 or so? Along with the future of Self's squad???

We'd be frickin' UNBEARABLE to the Mildcat and Tigger fans..... ROFL

[Imon Yourside]

Forgive my pessimism, but I will celebrate when the clock hits zero.

3:37 left and our ball at around the 50.

[DJay23]

By the way, was there even a TV camera in the place? I haven't seen a single highlight today. You would think with the history being made in the 3rd most played series in college FB, they might want to show a clip or two.

[Braincase]

Congrats to the this years KU Jayhawk squad. There's some teared up eyes in Lawrence today. The streak is over! The streak is OVER!!!!!!

NO, cuz tejas at baylor was the highlight early game of the day. :cuss: :cuss: :cuss:

Nope. Had to show all the games in involving Texas teams... decision was made at the Big 12 Offices in Dallas. Assholes.

[Pitt Gorilla]

Thanks! but you better get your tv tuned to the big 12 north championship game, it's 7-0 CU with MU driving.I don't get it up here. I have to listen to Mike "bellies to the left; popped off his feet, intercepted and dropped" Kelley over the net. Ick.

[Braincase]

Loudest Rock Chalk chant EVAR!

[KCFalcon59]

GO Hawks. One thing for sure, they won't be able to carry Mangino off the field.

[Braincase]

Mangino gets the Gatorade bucket.... and not a drop hits the ground.

Damn, I wish I could've gone to this game. I was in Lawrence earlier today for my son's football tournament. What a great day!!!!

[Imon Yourside]

IT'S OVA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 40-15 and the goal posts are already down!!!!!!!!!!!

[Mr. Kotter]

GO Hawks. One thing for sure, they won't be able to carry Mangino off the field.

He and Whitlock ought to do a Sumu-Wrestling fundraiser together. Holy crap!

Almost an appropriate end to the streak. We wander so long in the woods, and when our day of reckoning arrives, "no one" gets to see it.

Loudest Rock Chalk chant EVAR!Granted, I'm a Tiger fan, but that chant really seems silly. I asked one of my colleagues who is a KU grad about it, and he said he always thought it was gay. Do any Jayhawk fans really like that chant or are you just appeasing the cheerleaders?

[DJay23]

GO CRAZY EVERYBODY, GO CRAZY!

I raise this can of beer with my Jayhawk brethren in a toast:

Good bye to old streaks,

Hello to new!

Make it 3 wins in a row next week!

Such is MU's fate. If not for bad luck, we wouldn't have any luck at all.

Your colleague should be stripped of her diploma then.

The greatest sports chant ever invented. How anyone can listen to it and not get goosebumps is beyond me.

[Coach]

Well, at least KU will play aganist Texas on ABC, next week.

Should be interesting.

I thought it was silly for the first few times I heard it. But hearing it Allen Fieldhouse....from nearly 15,000, it's sends chills down the spines of alum and students. I swear, I got goosebumps during the thing after a big win, over say.....Billy Tubbs, or Norm Stewart.

I think it's easier to relate to, if you are a KU alum, and a big sports fan.

[Pitt Gorilla]

Wouldn't that be sweet?!

Jayhawks going to a BCS bowl every year for the next 30 or so? Along with the future of Self's squad???

We'd be frickin' UNBEARABLE to the Mildcat and Tigger fans..... ROFL
Honestly, not everyone is as petty as you. I think a bowl game for any North team would be great. It wouldn't hurt Nebraska to miss one or two, but overall it's good for the conference. Perhaps you should think before posting?!? :)

What you perceive as petty, is nothing more than good-natured smack. If you'd make it to a CP event, you'd figure it out I'm not nearly as obnoxious as you have in your head. A bit histrionic at times, but not a bad guy. Lighten-up. Let it go....

:)

[Pitt Gorilla]

Your colleague should be stripped of her diploma then.

The greatest sports chant ever invented. How anyone can listen to it and not get goosebumps is beyond me.Greatest? Rock chalk? You're chanting about minerals? What does that have to do with anything (ouside of rhyming?)

BTW,
My brother-in-law, who lives in lawrence, and wears nothing but KU garb doesn't like the chant either (he was the one that first brought it to my attention). Is this just a skewed sample?

Eh, I'm an asshole, but I love Big 12 north sports. Hell, I root for the south when they're not playing the north. Wins for the Big 12 are good for everyone in the conference.

[Coach]

Let's not get crazy, now. The Longhorns will spank us. :banghead:

Heh. Well, strange things has happened before.

At least KU did put up a good fight aganist Texas Tech.

[Lzen]

Let's not get crazy, now. The Longhorns will spank us. :banghead:

I think most any Jayhawk fan chalked up that game as a loss when the schedule came out. Playing against the #2 team in the country at their house is pretty much impossible. But I wouldn't be surprised to see us give them a nice challenge. We have the defense to keep the game close as long as our offense doesn't turn over the ball.

[Mr. Kotter]

Eh, I'm an asshole, but I love Big 12 north sports. Hell, I root for the south when they're not playing the north. Wins for the Big 12 are good for everyone in the conference.

I suspect you won't believe me, but deep down....I actually agree (with the asshole par, anyway :p ).

Seriously though, in the NCAA Tourney pools, my achilles heel is my loyalty and homerism to the Big 12. :banghead:

[Lzen]

Eh, I'm an asshole, but I love Big 12 north sports. Hell, I root for the south when they're not playing the north. Wins for the Big 12 are good for everyone in the conference.

I was just messing with you. Actually, I usually root for the other Big 12 teams. Although it is fun to give my wife crap when the Wildcats lose. :D And I hate Oklahoma. It's always good when they lose.

No matter how objective you claim to be, you are blinded by your disdain for KU, and these "people" who don't like that chant are the first KU fans I've ever heard of who don't like it.

You have to understand history and tradition. KU is built on Mt. Oread, a limestone outcrop smack in the middle of the Kansas plain. Limestone of course, is chalk rock. The story goes that the KU chemistry club was returning from some place on a train and in a moment of school spirit rhymed words to the beat of the click clack of the train. The words are meaningful to anyone who has attended KU or spent their lives devoted to the University in any way.

There is an almost religious quality to the sound of 16,000 people doing it in a closed arena and the feeling that many of us get from it is also religious.

You don't have to understand it. You don't have to appreciate it. But as long as you are a fan of Mizzou football or basketball, you sure as hell are gonna hear it!

[Spicy McHaggis]

Wow, KU only allowed 135 yards. And only 30 of it was rushing. This defense is the best I've seen in a long time.

[Imon Yourside]

Man I thought we played the clones before texas, but i guess we'll have to wait until the 26th before we know our bowl fate. Is there any chance we can substitute baylor in place of texas?

[DJay23]

I was just messing with you. Actually, I usually root for the other Big 12 teams. Although it is fun to give my wife crap when the Wildcats lose. :D And I hate Oklahoma. It's always good when they lose.
This is the one thing my dad didn't manage to pass on to me as I was developing my sporting loyalties. He tried to get me to root for the Broncos in Super Bowl XXII. If we are supposed to dislike a team on game day, why would I root for them at any other time? I will never root for an AFC west team, and I will never root for another Big XII team in any sport unless it has some meaning for KU's destiny.

Pro and College sports are a little different to me, I will Always root for the big 12 north to succeed whereas any other team in the afc west can lose every game for all i care.

Well, I can't bring myself to root for the Broncos or Raiduhs. That's a whole different thing.

I remember a co-worker of mine that was a so called "die-hard Chief fan" that used that same logic in rooting for Denver back in 97 against GB. Needless to say, I was a die hard Favre fan that day. No way will I ever root for Denver or Oakland.

Fantasy football has changed my view a little. I'll pull for individual players now, but could care less how their team does.

ROCK CHALK JAYHAWK, GO KU!

[DJay23]

During the College Gameday Scoreboard show, Reece Davis did the Rock Chalk Chant over top of some horseshit Mark May was trying to say about Nebraska. I love how KU absolutely whips Nebraska in all phases and all they want to talk about is how bad Nebraska is. Give us some props damnit! It's been 36 years!

[chiefqueen]

Wouldn't it be funny if some newspaper had the headline "KU Slashes Huskers"?

The huskers had A LOT of fans in the stands... they represented well. It was glorious to watch them flock out of Memorial with 10 minutes left in the 4th quarter. :D I give the husker fans props... they were loud, w/o being obnoxious. A large percentage stayed 'til the bitter end.

Sidenote: My 2yr old son is officially good luck for the Jayhawks' football team. Every game he has attended, KU has won. EVERY game :D That's good news for Jayhawk fans: we're season ticket holders, attend every game, and my son loves going. The only home game he missed this season was the OU game... which we lost.

:KU:
