37-34. Reesing throws a bad INT. long return and the freshman kicker who missed earlier makes it. Great game.
5:32 4th quarter: And it just gets better. KU scored again. 34-34. this is an example of two exhausted defenses trying to play on nothing but emotion.
9:51 4th quarter: This is turning into a hell of a game. KU QB Todd Reesing somehow escapes pressure again and throws a TD pass. 34-27 USF leads.
4th quarter: Another TD pass for Grothe and 23 unanswered points for USF. Not sure why KU refuses to blitz. Grothe is just sitting in the pocket, picking that zone apart.
1:09 3rd quarter: wow. what a momentum swing. now it's the KU defense that's completely exhausted. Grothe is making the right decision on every snap. If they play zone, he finds the seam. When they played man, he runs with it. At some point, KU has to blitz right? it wouldn't hurt if they could keep the ball for more than a minute at a time.
4:22 3rd quarter: Great catch by the USF receiver for a TD after the overturn of the original call. Grothe is doing a nice job picking KU's zone apart and USF is running the ball well. Not sure if KU can regain the momentum here. 20-20.
9:30 3rd quarter: Nice drive by USF after holding KU to a 3 and out. But not getting a TD there hurts. 20-13. Observation - KU gets great field position off a penalty on the opening kick and proceeds to throw three incompletions. Total time off the clock? 16 seconds. Why not run the ball? You have a 10-point lead. Shorten the game. One run takes almost a minute off the clock.
2:14 2nd quarter: Wow. Great run by USF QB Matt Grothe to make it 20-10. After missing a wide open tight end, Grothe just kind of ran around until he found a way in. Maybe USF will show a little life now.
3:25 2nd quarter: KU just scored again to make it 20-3 and this is looking like a complete mismatch. USF looks dead tired on defense, not to mentioned very confused in their coverages. KU went hurry up and it only accentuated USF's problems. It didn't help that USF went three and out on the prior posession so the defense went right back on the field.
7:45 2nd quarter: Kansas has looked very solid so far. USF missed a field goal, but the Jayhawks have moved the ball very well with a number of screen and short passes and eventually setting up a long ball. Have to say though, Kansas runs a boatload of pick plays that don't get called.

Wow. USF is playing much more inspired football in the second half. This is turning out to be a great Friday night game. The only real question now is when does ESPN consider South Florida's fans the best in the nation?
