South Florida. In the event that he isn't ready, senior Adam Barmann is listed as the second-string quarterback.
After watching tape of Friday's loss, Mangino said he should have pulled his quarterback, despite Meter's objections. Although he couldn't see the full effect of Meier's injury during the game, Mangino noticed it more on tape.
"Watching the tape, you can tell he's not perfectly fine," Mangino said. "His elbow is down low, his range of motion is affected, and it affected at least three or four throws in the fourth quarter."
The injury obviously affected Meier's right arm. He tossed two interceptions after the injury. Both
He lobbed a pass downfield, but Toledo's Barry Church intercepted the ball and ran it back for a touchdown. In the second overtime, it was nearly the same situation. Meier's pass was a few yards short of his receiver and was intercepted in the end zone.
came as Kansas was driving deep into Toledo territory. The first interception came on the same drive where Meier appeared to injure his arm.
Even with his quarterback suffering an injury, Mangino said the situation might help his team.
Sophomore cornerback Aqib Talib made his return to the starting lineup after serving a two-game suspension. Talib made several key plays including knock downs of two passes in the fourth quarter.
Football Notes:
"It should serve us well in the long run, no question about it," he said. "He's a tough, hard-nosed competitor and we respect him for that."
Kansan senior sportswriter Ryan Schneider can be contacted at rschnieder@kansan.com.
Mangino said Taili's return helped bolster his defense.
"He's a fabulous player," Mangino said. "I think that it helped us overall."

But Quartaro decided to let the freshman Meier try to win the game. The result: a forced fade pass into double coverage and another interception.

down. But it was given a first and goal because of a Toledo 15-yard penalty. What would you do? Remember, Meier had already thrown three interceptions. Run the football? It's what Kansas should have done.
The lack of logic behind those calls boggles my mind and they all have one thing in common: Each
Iowa State attempted 26 passes against Toledo during a triple-overtime victory and Western Michigan attempted only 15 in a 21-point victory. Kansas passed as many as both combined, with a freshman quarterback no less. That's just not smart scouting.
Cornish only had 20 carries in a game that lasted more than four hours. In comparison, Meier ran 19 times and threw 41 times. Considering that Cornish entered the game as the Big 12's second-leading rusher and as Kansas' best offensive player, Quartaro was foolish to let Meier try to handle that much pressure in his first road game instead of giving the load to Cornish.
mistake could have easily been avoided by feeding Cornish the ball from a normal formation.

TV (CONTINUED FROM 10A)
a victory in the Fort Worth Bowl, Kansas has played its way onto the tube. The record for the KU football team's appearances on television was in 1996 when the team appeared in seven telecasts. The record followed the 1995 season when the Jayhawks were 10-2 and beat UCLA in the Aloha Bowl.
Since coach Mark Mangino took over the Jayhawks in 2002, they have had 12 television appearances prior to this season with five of those appearances coming last season.
terback match-up - Kerry Meier for Kansas and Dylan Meier for Kansas State - gave the game its television potential, that is, if the two teams have good records approaching the game.
The exposure from television is beneficial to the football program. Along with the assistance in recruiting potential athletes to the University, television appearances generate revenue. Kansas receives approximately $180,000 for every conference game on TV and $360,000 for nonconference games, according to Marchiony.
Kansan staff writer C.J. Moore can be contacted at cjmore@kansan.com.
One potential television appearance later this season would be the Kansas State game on Nov.18. Allen said the Meier brother quar-
