Four questions KU answered against Arizona State
- Against Arizona State in London, Kansas replaced Austin Alexander with Syeed Gibbs after early completions against Alexander. The review credits Gibbs with a deep pass breakup and says Roman Pearson also rotated for Gibbs. This was an observed in-game secondary adjustment, not a confirmed permanent depth-chart change.
- Kansas quarterback Isaiah Marshall said he asked coaches at halftime to use passing concepts already planned for the Arizona State game. The review reports an up-tempo second-half response while trailing by 17, with 195 of KU's 235 passing yards coming after halftime. This describes use of existing concepts, not a newly installed offense.
- The Kansas review says inside runs were frequently stopped against Arizona State, while outside zone found success, especially on the second drive. It also identifies disrupted snap timing between Isaiah Marshall and Kasen Carpenter and back-foot throws as execution problems. These are the writer's game-specific observations, not announced personnel changes.

The OL
- QB/OL: I thought, other than the snaps (which, admittedly, are a really, really critical part), the blocking was better yesterday.

Sunday Snap Judgments and Big 12 Actually Accomplished Rankings
- In Kansas's 2026 loss to Arizona State, the article reports that Kansas held the Sun Devils to 95 passing yards, 3.1 yards per rush and 4-of-17 on third downs. Kansas nearly doubled Arizona State's yardage and first downs, so the loss was not simply evidence that its defense could not get stops.
- Kansas failed to convert those advantages against Arizona State: the article records 0-for-3 on fourth downs, a missed field goal, a red-zone fumble and a red-zone interception, despite a punt-return touchdown. These are game-specific finishing and turnover failures, not an announced quarterback, kicker or play-calling change.

Found our next quarterback.
- QB/LB: Not sure what he said in interview, but sometime the player just doesn’t listen and screws up and the coach will take the hit for the kid.

The bag of offensive plays

RB John Kelly
- Pick/market: Was wondering the same thing given they put Micah Johnson out there on 4th and 1 after Willis went out.

We could be 3-0 right now
- Pick/market: Or maybe we should quit whining about the schedule and try wining a ******* game against a rival.

Lance
- QB: STs, clock mismanagement, not knowing when to go/kick, penalties, etc has nothing to do with a QB or NIL $ LL gets all those things wrong with staggering consistency year after year

Running Back room
- RB: Was actually impressed with Edwards who was running really patient picking his spots - dude also got a lot stronger etc - looks more like a Devin type RB vs prior years..

Was watching 30 for 30 on Charlie Ward
- Pick/market: If they can figure out how to get Zeke settled and get the OL stabilized, they might get to 4 wins this season vs the likely 2-10 they're headed toward.
