Some good news with your breakfast this morning

Want some good news?

You know that's what I'm all about.

Read what Tom Keegan of the Lawrence Journal-World wrote about the defense of Colorado's next opponent, the Kansas Jayhawks.

"In the past three weeks, the KU defense has surrendered 54 fourth-quarter points. In four Big 12 games, the Jayhawks have allowed 14 touchdown passes, three thrown in the fourth quarter Saturday by senior quarterback Shawn Bell."

Now, brothers, I'm tellin' you if the Buffs can't throw on these guys then they can't pass it on anyone and coach Dan Hawkins ought to send Bernard Jackson to remedial quarterback school, make offensive coordinator Mark Helfrich the new defensive backs coach immediately, and invite all the fraternity cats to an open tryout to see if they can throw and catch, even if they are coming off a hard night.

Either that or start playing option football.

With a pretty-boy defense like the Jayhawks have, "ooh, quit running so fast, wait, wait, wait for meeeeeeeeee," CU has to find a way to successfully chuck that pig all around the stadium and find a way to break, oh, I don't know, 200 yards through the air.

Besides, basketball season's coming up and you know two beatings are coming for Ricardo Patton's young Buffs against KU's loaded team of all stars. This is the last chance to get some "scoreboard" on the Jayhawks for a while. Don't let it get away.

And, trust me, KU, despite a couple more wins than CU, is in as much disarray as the Buffs, if not more, and feeling a lot of heat from the media and fans. People aren't any happier in Lawrence than they are in Boulder.

They just have their attention diverted a little more, by the prettier girl on campus.

Her name, basketball.

This week is the grand opportunity to look like a real offense again. Get fat, even.

Better take advantage of it.
