⚡ CFB Dashboard

- Kansas QB Marshall completed 7-of-16 passes from a clean pocket against Missouri, averaging 4.6 yards per attempt; the article reports a PFF passing grade of 57. The writer attributes numerous misses to the quarterback, indicating that pressure alone did not explain the passing problems in the 38-21 loss. - Kansas rotated Connor Stroh extensively at guard; he led the guards in snaps and had the offensive line's highest grade. Amir Herring played 36 snaps, his fewest since last year's Missouri game. In protection, Calvin Clements allowed four hurries and DeAndre Harper two pressures. The report documents rotation and performance, not a confirmed permanent lineup change. - Kansas WR Cam Pickett played only five snaps against Missouri and wore a warming wrap on his left hamstring for extended stretches. The writer observed that he tried to play but was not near full strength. This is a game observation, not a reported diagnosis, recovery timetable or next-game availability ruling. - Kansas DTs Blake Herold and Marcus Calvin played 63 and 56 snaps against Missouri; the writer interprets the heavy workloads as limited trusted depth. Kansas generated just five quarterback pressures on 29 Missouri passes. Both the workload and pass-rush production raise front-line concerns, without establishing any announced rotation change. - Kansas LB Jibreel Al-Amin played five snaps against Missouri and has 12 across two games, while Malachi Curvey logged 13 on Friday alone. The writer questions the preseason enthusiasm around Al-Amin based on that usage. Those snap totals show his limited game role so far, not an announced demotion.

- QB: I can't find the threads but someone asked who the third string quarterback would be if Ballard is out and also how many players they took on the trip.

- Pick/market: Kansas and Arizona State will face off at Wembley Stadium in the first-ever Power Four football game played in England.

- QB: The MU QB was averaging between 1.9 and 2.2 seconds on his time to throw.

- At Kansas's Sept. 14 pre-London presser, Leipold said the Missouri film showed a failure to establish the run and poor ball security that created short fields. He put average second downs at nearly second-and-10 and third downs around third-and-11, making early-down efficiency a preparation priority rather than announcing a new offensive system. - Reviewing Missouri on Sept. 14, Leipold said Kansas quarterback Isaiah was inconsistent against a faster defense and played through an early hit. As staff considered discussing getting Cole ready, Isaiah's touchdown throw to Nick helped persuade them to continue with him. This explains that game's decision, not a new quarterback order or subsequent medical clearance. - In the Sept. 14 Missouri review, Leipold emphasized that Kansas blocked two field goals with different players attacking different spots. He credited sustained effort and push, and said maintaining that push mattered because opponents had now seen the blocks. He did not announce a special-teams personnel change.

- LB: POV: the first-ever American college football game will be played here tomorrow

- LB: Regarding Bam Crouch (in addition to what the coaches said on the record), I'm hearing there is optimism that he will be able to play this week.

- Intel: the Leroy and Todd grades don't line up with the tape .
