Passion - Commitment - History

I love Jayhawk sports. I love watching them. I love reading about them. I love writing about them. I love talking about them. I love bringing a group of friends together to watch a game. I love the emotional ups and downs that go with every play. I love spending a day in Lawrence and soaking up the history of Allen Fieldhouse and Memorial Stadium.

That is the reason for JAYTALKERS.com. It's a place for me to share my passion with Jayhawk fans around the world. I hope you enjoy it.

KEEP ROCKIN' AND CHALKIN',

All Streaks Come to an End

I'm not too upset about this loss. The streak had to end some time and everyone knew that KSU's best chance in a long time was this season. I hadn't said it on the list, but while I was happy with the winning streak and the win over CU on the road, I was under no impression that this team was going to be a buzzsaw the rest of the way. Self has talked about all season how this team can labor to score. We had 3 pts. in the final 8:45 of the first half when we could have buried K-State. But just before that drought, they scored about 10 points in 3 minutes. They have spurtability and it all comes from their defense. But when they slack off on defense, it slows down their offense almost to a crawl.

It's a loss and it sucks, but there is no time to sulk because we have the morons on Monday.

I will say that I hope Self has himself and all of the big men on the treadmill at this very moment.

And there is no excuse for us going for 2 with 9 seconds left.

Sometimes the ball bounces your way. Sometimes it doesn't. And sometimes it bounces of Brandon Rush's face.

    I think the day of streaks in BB and FB are over. KU beat Neb in football this year and probably should have beaten them a dozen times in the last 30 years. Texas Tech broke Neb homecoming streak this year also. Recruiting and coaching changes are making new powers in college sports. The dynasties are not going away, but they will not have the upperhand as before.
