I'm not arguing for the eligibility or non-eligibility of the remaining two players. I'm arguing for a rink. In the weeks leading up to tax day on April 1, places like H&R Block hire hundreds of part-time employees to lighten the heavy load pushed upon them in tax season. It makes sense. I'm no math major, but the number of incoming freshmen this time of year — in every sport, not just football and basketball — is a pretty significant number. And if I can't mistaken, most high schools graduate around the same time of the year. Why not hire a truckload of extra help in the summer so guys like Justin Hunter and the Kansas duo can get an answer before they turn 30? I'm arguing for a ruling.

Texas Tech's offensive numbers, but not quite what they used to be, are still very daunting, as the Red Raiders average 523.3 yards of offense per game. Kansas defensive coordinator Vic Shealy said that, although he doesn't have the same running capabilities, Red Raiders' quarterback junior 7 So when the Jayhawks take the field Saturday against Texas Tech, the odds will be against them to break the four-game losing skiid. To overcome those odds, they'll have to have a defensive game plan that has not yet been seen in the previous matchups against the Red Raiders. "You've got to be able to pressure the quarterback to get him out of rhythm," Shealy said. "In three ball games, they've had 21 passes for over 20 yards. You've got to limit that big play, and no one's done it.
