Lance Leipold wants to see rivalry continue, injury at linebacker, OL will face a test
- Kansas linebacker Bam Crouch is doubtful for Missouri after an injury against Long Island. Quincy Davis shifted from Mike to Will during the opener; Lance Leipold says offseason cross-training and Davis' understanding of both roles give him confidence in that adjustment. The article does not identify Crouch's injury or declare him out. - If Crouch cannot play, Kansas may also use Malachi Curvey and Jibreel Al-Amin for additional linebacker snaps. Leipold says Curvey keeps improving after his first extended college action and describes Al-Amin as active and athletic; he does not announce a snap split or name a permanent replacement. - Leipold liked Kansas' offensive-line rotation and sack-free opener against Long Island, but wants cleaner holding technique and greater consistency before Missouri's larger, faster front four. He links holding to redirecting or stopping the feet and emphasizes disengaging in time; the FCS opener is a starting point, not proof the protection will hold against Missouri.

Everything Mizzou head coach Eli Drinkwitz said on Tuesday
- Drinkwitz described Kansas quarterback Isaiah Marshall as an accurate downfield passer and dangerous runner, requiring Missouri to maintain pass-rush lanes while also defending his throws rather than simply concede the passing game. - Drinkwitz said Kansas coordinator Kotelnicki builds complementary passes, quarterback runs and trick plays from repeated shifts and motions, including unbalanced formations that complicate defensive recognition.

Lance Leipold on Kotelnicki's return, injury update and players getting opportunity
- Andy Kotelnicki's return as Kansas offensive coordinator opened with more than 600 yards in a 51-6 win over LIU, which Lance Leipold called a positive first step for an offense still early in its re-install. - Leipold said Kotelnicki had to start over with a roster mostly new to him, using spring, summer, and fall camp to evaluate personnel and find multiple ways to use the talent. - Kansas linebacker Bam Crouch left the LIU game with a shoulder issue, returned with his arm in a sling, and was expected to undergo further testing. - Leipold said Crouch was the only injury concern after the opener, which is important because Crouch had been playing well through fall camp after an injury at Boston College last season. - Kansas played 86 players against LIU, giving depth pieces and younger players live work in a game where the starters were able to support the reserves from the sideline.
