WASHINGTON President
Barack Obama vowed Wednesday
the United States would work with
the Libyan government to bring to
justice those who killed U.S. am-
bassador Chris Stevens and three
other Americans in an attack on
the consulate in Benghazi.
Make no mistake. Justice will
be done, he said in a Rose Garden
appearance at the White House.
Obama, who ordered an in-
crease in security at U.S. facilities
overseas, said he condemns in the
strongest possible terms the outra-
geous and shocking attack.
He spoke afer Republican presi-
dential challenger Mitt Romney
also condemned the attack but
criticized the administration for its
initial response to a separate inci-
dent on Tuesday, the breach of the
U.S. embassy in Cairo.
Te president spoke with Sec-
retary of State Hillary Rodham
Clinton at his side as the deaths in
Libya quickly roiled the U.S. politi-
cal campaign, now in its fnal seven
weeks.
Stevens, 52, and three other
Americans were killed when he
and a group of embassy employ-
ees went to the consulate to try to
evacuate staf as the building came
under attack by a mob armed with
guns and rocket propelled gre-
nades.
Te incidents in Benghazi and
Cairo have been attributed to the
work of protesters angry over a
flm that ridiculed Islams Prophet
Muhammad.
In his remarks, Obama said: We
reject all eforts to denigrate the re-
ligious beliefs of others, but there is
absolutely no justifcation for this
type of senseless violence, none.
Romneys criticism appeared
limited to an initial statement is-
sued the previous day by the U.S.
Embassy in Cairo. He said it was
akin to an apology, and that said
as president, Obama bears respon-
sibility for it. Tey clearly sent
mixed messages for the world, he
said of the administration.
Te U.S. Embassy in Cairo is-
sued a warning to all Americans in
Cairo early Tuesday morning that
it expected there would be dem-
onstrations in the general neigh-
borhood of the embassy. When it
became clear later in the day that
there would be a demonstration
outside the embassy, it issued the
statement referenced by Romney.
Tat statement said that the
embassy condemns the continu-
ing eforts by misguided individ-
uals to hurt the religious feelings
of Muslims as we condemn
eforts to ofend believers of all
religions. Te statement was is-
sued before protesters breached
the embassy.
Vice President Joe Biden, cam-
paigning in Dayton, Ohio, said
there is no place in the civilized
world for the attacks and rein-
forced Obamas vow to bring the
killers to justice.
Biden made no reference to
Romneys criticism.
Stevens is the frst U.S. ambas-
sador to be killed in an attack since
1979, when Ambassador Adolph
Dubs was killed in Afghanistan.
Te State Department identifed
one of the other Americans killed
Tuesday as Sean Smith, a foreign
service information management
ofcer. Te identities of the others
were being withheld pending no-
tifcation of next of kin.
Te White House said Obama
was informed Tuesday night that
Stevens was not accounted for and
was notifed Wednesday morning
that he had been killed.
In a written statement earlier
Wednesday, Obama called Stevens
a courageous and exemplary rep-
resentative of the United States.
Te four Americans, he said,
exemplifed Americas commit-
ment to freedom, justice, and part-
nership with nations and people
around the globe.
Monday is the last day to add or swap
a class, and the last day to get a 50%
refund on dropped classes. Tuesday,
the refund drops to 0%.

KU Endowment sets
fund-raising record
Private gifts for the University reached
an all-time high of $156.5 million in
the fscal year 2012.
it was the ffth consecutive record
year, and the number of donors has also
set a new record at 46,257.
The gifts and donations were made
to KU Endowment in support of the
University and the University of Kansas
Hospital. Contributions reached $153.2
million in the fscal year 2011, rising
$3.3 million in one year.
The contributions were encouraged
in part by Far Above: The Campaign for
Kansas, a fund-raising drive publicly
launched April 28. The program is set
to conclude in 2016 with a goal of rais-
ing $1.2 billion.
We have been communicating
our priorities for the campaign to our
donors, and they seem really excited
about it, said Rosita McCoy, senior
vice president of KU Endowment.
The campaign has reached the
halfway-mark of the $1.2 billion goal
for 2016 in less than fve months.
it makes us confdent to succeed in
reaching our goal, McCoy said. The
success so far bodes well for the cam-
paign in the future.
KU Endowment is an independent,
nonproft organization that is the off-
cial fundraising and fund-management
organization for the University.

HAVANA A senior Cuban
diplomat said Wednesday her coun-
try is prepared to negotiate a solu-
tion in the case of a jailed American
contractor, but is awaiting a U.S.
response.
Foreign Ministry ofcial Josefna
Vidal also rejected allegations by the
wife of 63-year-old Maryland na-
tive Alan Gross that her husbands
health is failing afer more than 2
1/2 years in custody.
Cuba reiterates its willingness to
talk with the United States govern-
ment to fnd a solution in the case of
Mr. Gross and continues to await an
answer, Vidal, who heads the min-
istrys Ofce of North American Af-
fairs, said in a statement sent to Te
Associated Press.
She gave no details. It was the frst
time a Cuban ofcial has hinted that
a specifc proposal has been made
and indicated that the ball was in
Washingtons court.
Previously, senior ofcials in
President Raul Castros government
have raised the case of fve Cuban
agents sentenced to long jail terms
in the United States, though they
have not spelled out publicly that
they are seeking an exchange.
U.S. ofcials say privately, howev-
er, that Havana has made it increas-
ingly clear they want a quid pro quo,
something Washington has repeat-
edly rejected.
Jared Genser, a Washington-
based attorney for the Gross fam-
ily, said in a telephone interview he
knows of no active proposal that the
Cuban government has put forward
for his clients release.
He said American ofcials had
long made clear to the Cubans that
trading Gross for the Cuban agents
is a nonstarter.
My defnition of a proposal is
something that is specifc and ac-
tionable, he said.
Genser challenged Vidal to pub-
licly name a date, time and loca-
tion where the Cuban government
would be willing to meet with U.S.
ofcials to negotiate a release.
Grosss wife, Judy, traveled to
Cuba and visited her husband in
custody several times last week. She
said upon her return to the United
States that she feared he would not
survive his ordeal.
PRAGUE, Czech Republic At
least 19 people are dead and 24 oth-
ers hospitalized. Some of them have
been blinded, while others have been
induced into comas in the hope that
doctors can save them.
All had drunk cheap vodka and
rum laced with methanol, a toxic
substance used to stretch alcohol on
the black market and guarantee high
profts for manufacturers.
Te Czech Republic announced
emergency measures Wednesday
as the death toll from the methanol
poisoning mounted, including two
women aged 28 and 21. Kiosks and
markets were banned from selling
spirits with more than 30 percent
alcohol content and police raided
outlets nationwide. At 410 sites, they
found 70 cases of illegal alcohol.
Prime Minister Petr Necas called
on all Czechs to refrain from drink-
ing any alcohol whose origin is un-
certain but authorities still feared
the death toll will rise further.
Little is ofcially known about the
culprits other than that they work in
the countrys depressed northeast, a
former heartland of industry under
communism. Te Moravian-Silesian
region near the border with Poland
has unemployment about 50 percent
higher than the national average of
8.3 percent.
Of the 16 confrmed dead in the
Czech Republic, eight lived in the re-
gion; two others died in neighboring
Poland and one more in Slovakia.
Senior police ofcial Vaclav Kuc-
era said all the poisoning cases so far
are likely connected and two suspects
have been arrested one in the east-
ern city of Zlin and another in the
northeastern city of Havirov. Te
frst two fatalities were announced
Sept. 6 in Havirov.
Methanol is mainly used for in-
dustrial purposes but unscrupu-
lous criminal networks sometimes
misuse it to illegally produce cheap
liquor because its cheap and impos-
sible to distinguish from real drink-
ing alcohol.
Despite the current tragedy, such
outbreaks have been rare in Europe.
In Serbia, 43 people died in 1998
from illegally-made plum brandy
and a man was sentenced to 12 years
in jail.
MOGADISHU, Somalia
Somalias new president sur-
vived an assassination attempt on
his second day in ofce when two
suicide bombers blew themselves
up Wednesday while trying to gain
access into a heavily guarded hotel
that is his temporary residence, of-
fcials and witnesses said.
Te attack highlights the chal-
lenge that insecurity caused by an
Islamist insurgency poses to Soma-
lias fedgling government, which is
expected to help transform the east
African country from being a failed
state to one with functioning gov-
ernment.
Te African Union Mission for
Somalia said one of its soldiers
was killed when the two suicide at-
tackers attempted to penetrate the
Jazeera Hotel where the President
Hassan Sheikh Mohamud and Ke-
nyas foreign minister were giving a
news conference.
Te two suicide bombers set of
explosions afer they were shot by
soldiers guarding the Jazeera Hotel,
while another was intercepted and
shot dead as he attempted to scale
the walls of the hotels compound,
the African Union Mission for So-
malia, known as Amisom, said in a
statement.
Witnesses say at least one more
person was killed, bringing the total
death toll to a minimum of fve, in-
cluding the three attackers.
Te president, who was elected
by Parliament on Monday, was
undeterred by the explosions and
continued to speak to the media,
AMISOM said.
Al-Shabab, a radical Islamist mi-
litia that is afliated with al-Qaida
and waging an insurgency against
the Somali government, quickly
claimed responsibility for the attack.
Al-Shabab had opposed Mohamuds
election, saying it had been manipu-
lated by Western powers.
African Union forces are helping
the Somali government fght al-Sha-
bab, which the U.S. has designated
as a terrorist group.

Some School of Music students
recently returned from a nine-week
program in Lawrences sister city, Eu-
tin, Germany. Now, more music stu-
dents will prepare for a commissioned
concert in New York this spring.
Members of the University wind
ensemble will perform Mohammed
Fairouzs In the Shadow of No Tow-
ers, a concert that explores life post-
9/11, in the Isaac Stern Auditorium at
Carnegie Hall on March 26. Tey will
return to Lawrence to play the con-
cert at the Lied Center on April 2.
Te school is also working with or-
ganizers in Germany to plan another
trip to Eutin in summer 2013.
I think it will be great for the stu-
dents to do this every summer, said
David Neely, director of orchestral
activities for the school. Its a great
experience for them, and its a great
gain for KU.
For the past two summers, stu-
dents performed at a music festival in
Eutin. In 2011, more than 70 students
a whole student orchestra and op-
era cast traveled to Eutin. Tis past
summer, 33 students were selected
to go. Tese 33 students performed
alongside professionals and other
students from Germany and other
countries.
Madison Mikenna, a graduate
student from Birmingham, Mich.,
performed in the chorus at the per-
formances in Eutin.
In the opera chorus there were
about 65 people, and 14 of them were
American singers, Mikenna said.
Te rest were a mixture of people
from Bulgaria, Germany, Poland,
Sweden and Korea.
Te festival spanned from June
15 to Aug. 20. Students rehearsed
in Eutin for two weeks before the
concerts and operas Nabucco,
LElisir damore and Die Blume
von Hawaii began. Mikenna and
the rest of the chorus rehearsed nine
hours each day, but the instrumental-
ists, like French horn player Stephen
Meiller, had time to travel.
Meiller, a junior from Normin,
Okla., had a free day at least once a
week. He travelled to Berlin and small
cities and beaches near Eutin.
I auditioned because I wanted to
have the music experience of playing
in a diferent country and getting to
meet other musicians from around
the world, Meiller said. It was the
frst time Ive been in Europe. I en-
joyed getting to travel around and ex-
plore the diferent cities.
Neely explained the importance
of music students playing in festivals
and concerts, either in the U.S. or
abroad, during the summer months.
He said that in Eutin, students were
able to learn the diferences between
European and American instruments
and how to act professionally during a
performance. Tey also were exposed
to new perspectives on music.
Its unwise to stop playing, he
said. Tey need to stay active and
network with new teachers, get dif-
ferent points of view and have new
experiences.
Neely went to Eutin for the last
week of the festival. He conducted
a concert alongside the German
organizer to show the cooperation
between the sister cities. Neely also
invited the conductor to travel to
Lawrence this spring and participate
in a concert.
I thought it would be nice to in-
vite him over to conduct, Neely said.
Tis is a pretty rare thing. Its pretty
special.

The KU Natural History Mu-
seum is bringing sexy back.
Students can visit the museum
tonight to learn about group sex
among mollusk species, cannibal-
istic sex among spiders and bees
that explode after copulating.
The event, at the museum in
Dyche Hall at 5 p.m., is called
Sexy Science, and it kicks off the
fall lineup of new events.
Sexy Science focuses on the
suggestive side of natural history,
said Kitty Steffens, visitor servic-
es and events coordinator for the
museum. It will help students
look at science in an exciting and
different way.
For ages 18 and older, the
event includes Condom Olym-
pics, where students compete to
properly put condoms on mod-
els while blindfolded or wearing
beer goggles. Visitors can also
look forward to a museum-wide
scavenger hunt, refreshments and
prizes including t-shirts, water
bottles and condoms.
Chris Wildgen, a senior from
Lawrence, works at the museum
and hopes Sexy Science will
stimulate students interest in the
museum.
Its edgy, Wildgen said. The
sexual nature of the event en-
tices the college demographic to
explore the museum and learn
about science.
The museum is always free
for students, but Wildgen thinks
many have never seen its attrac-
tions. Some of the highlights: the
worlds largest fossilzed Mosasaur
a prehistoric marine lizard
12 live snakes and a triceratops
skull. A jackrabbit with tiny ant-
lers, commonly known as the
mythical jackalope, sits in its own
display.
This semester, the museum is
tripling the number of events it
sponsors and is staying open until
8:30 p.m. on Thursdays to appeal
to students and the community.
Sexy Science is cosponsored
with the student-run Peer Health
Education group, which hopes to
push safe sex education in a fun
atmosphere.
If you use contraceptives cor-
rectly, they can be very effective,
said Ken Sarber, public health
educator at the University and an
organizer of the event.
Sarber said improper use re-
duces the effectiveness rate of
condoms by 15 percent.
Museum visitors Thursday
night will find information about
proper use of different types of
contraceptives. Theyll also see a
demonstration of the strength of
condoms that involves filling one
with oranges.
Its a very fun way to learn
about sexual health and safety,
Sarber said.

I couldnt seem to keep up with
fads as a kid. I was busy enough try-
ing to get used to writing in cursive
and reading books without pictures
to notice what was trending in the
world of fourth grade fashion. I
was still wearing crew socks when
everyone else switched to those ris-
qu no-show ankle socks. I donned
light-up sneakers rather than those
wacky Styrofoam gardening shoes.
Hell, I was still trying to fgure out
the fner stratagem of the Pokmon
trading card game when my friends
were moving on to the even more
Japanese Yu-Gi-Oh! So I swore
of fads; I was going to be my own
man. What was the point of briefy
getting caught up in some craze
just to abandon it weeks later?
Its March 5, 2012 and my Fa-
cebook cover photo isnt embla-
zoned with Kony 2012. Its just a
picture of me, in a feld, wearing a
hat. Tats irrelevant, but the point
is, I didnt watch the freaking video
and it didnt change my freaking
life. Nevertheless, I was intrigued
by the mass attention it drew and
did some research of my own. So
I found what everyone else would
soon discover: Invisible Children
is possibly just an awareness cam-
paign. It turns out that the people
dont like to see their donations
go towards manufacturing cheap
wristbands and T-shirts instead of
fghting a warlord and saving chil-
dren. Only a week afer this unify-
ing revolution manifested itself in
a 30-minute propaganda flm, it
disappeared. Tey truly did stop
at nothing.
Fast-forward a few months. Te
white man saved Africa and now
hes on to dismantling a far more
sinister threat: homophobic chick-
ens. Chick-fl-A has made their
conservative values clear since its
inception, but the liberals of the
world were waiting for just the
right time to smite down these ho-
lier-than-thou chicken-mongers.
As I watched the Facebook statuses
and tweets roll in, I realized that we
had arrived at the divisive issue of
our time. People took to the streets,
either hen-picketing the anti-gay
restaurant or showing support by
raising the collective cholesterol of
America. And as usual, I watched
from the sidelines.
Teres a storm coming, Will.
OK, so the world has already for-
gotten or lost interest in the Chick-
fl-A issue. Just look at good ol
KU: in the heat of battle, students
were petitioning to remove the fast
food chain from the University. But
recently, I walked into the Under-
ground food court to see hoards
of Jayhawks clamoring for their
wafe fry fx. Whether its a fad or a
movement, or some combination
of the two, all things must pass.
I believe that real change is pos-
sible. I believe that real dedication
starts on the individual level. Any-
one can fnd issues that have some-
how deeply afected him, her or
someone they know; and that mo-
tivation is all it takes to actually ac-
complish something. But subscrib-
ing to Revolution of the Month
magazine will never make any im-
pact. Honestly, I have more respect
for that longhaired kid from my
high school that scrawled, legalize
it on every single bathroom stall
theres a man on a mission.
So am I just a cynical jerk who
has no faith in the masses? Pretty
much. But at least I never wore
Crocs.

TRENDS

A year ago, quidditch took this
campus by storm.
In the interest of full disclosure,
I should tell you that I have never
read a Harry Potter book nor have
I ever seen a Harry Potter movie. I
am that holdout you all know, kind
of like the kid that still doesnt have
a Facebook. Tat being said, I hold
on so that I have a fun fact to share
during ice breakers. Hi, my name
is Chris and I have never read a
Harry Potter book nor have I ever
seen a Harry Potter Movie. But
dont worry I do have a Facebook.
What have I really missed out
on? Oh, youve seen the latest Har-
ry Potter movie? Dont you love
what Potter did with the musical
score during the title screen? Wait.
Harry Potter is not the director of
the movies? Well, dont you love
the last Harry Potter novel? Dont
you enjoy Potters grandiose con-
clusion to his epic series? No way.
Harry Potter is not the author of
the books?
OK, so I am not that unaware.
I know who J.K. Rowling is. What
I am is ignorant and I get that. I
dont know much about the Harry
Potter universe. I grew up think-
ing that Harry Potter was from the
devil and that if I read the books,
I would one day try to cast curses
and poke scary voodoo dolls with
needles. It wasnt my parents fault.
Tey are awesome. But I will let
you say what you want to say be-
cause I know it already my child-
hood was ruined by my childhood.
I am late to the Harry Potter party.
Not two hours late, when everyone
with swag shows up. Fifeen years
late. Despite this, I cant help but
think there is still hope for me.
Tat hope is quidditch. By
hope, I mean that I have heard
of quidditch. By heard of, I mean
that everyone will not stop talking
about quidditch. Quidditch is so
ofen spoken of that Im positive
there is some kind of hidden J.K.
Rowling conspiracy out there to
keep her books relevant. I am sure
you all have heard of quidditch as
well. If you have not, I guess I can
end your struggle and explain what
I know, which is very little. Basi-
cally, quidditch is a sport inspired
by a fctional sport from the Harry
Potter series. Athletes put a broom
between their legs and run around
in rugby fashion and throw balls
like dodgeball.
Google will help you describe
the game. But, how to actually
play is an entirely diferent story.
I actually look forward to the day
that quidditch is a ubiquitous
term. Does anyone have to explain
the game of basketball every time
someone says basketball? Te
very need to explain quidditch is
clear indication that I am not the
only ignorant person who has
room to learn more about it. I am
trying to further educate myself,
but its not going so well. I tried
reading the Wikipedia page. I tried
reading the ofcial rules on the in-
ternational Quidditch Association
website. But, I dont understand
much of the vocabulary, and the
Wikipedia page keeps making it
seem as if people actually fy on
brooms. Im sure they dont.
Here is my plan. It is so simple.
If you did not already know, a
quidditch tournament between
every residence hall will be held
on Sunday, Sep. 16 at 11 a.m. be-
hind Robinson Hall on Sunnyside
Avenue on the feld afectionately
known as the cage, because it is
partially surrounded by a fence.
Each residence hall will feld a
team and the winner will have
legitimate bragging rights. I am
tired of hearing about quidditch
and not knowing whats going on.
I am actually going to take oppor-
tunity to watch people play quid-
ditch. Live. In person. On the feld.
Maybe I will even learn to play.
According to Samy Mousa, who
is hosting the tournament, if you
arent in one of the residence halls,
you can still play.
We all get annoyed by that per-
son who complains about some-
thing but does nothing to change
the problem. Te only thing worse
is a person who complains about
something they dont understand.
You know, that girl who screams at
the referees correct false start call.
You know, that guy who still thinks
President Obama was born in In-
donesia. Dont be that girl. Dont
be that guy. Get outside and watch
quidditch with me so we can all be
less ignorant.

Te Kansan hit the nail
on the head with its Tuesday
headline, Civilization Falls.
Eliminating the HWC require-
ment does more than interrupt
a seven-decade tradition, it
undercuts the value of a degree
from the University of Kansas.
Erin Rifells comment that
you need to know a little bit
of everything is indeed true.
Competing and prospering
in a global economy demands
aggressive and well-rounded
education. If one of your Fa-
cebook friends posted the pic-
ture of how science tells you
how to build a dinosaur, and
humanities tell you why you
shouldnt, then youve seen a
similar argument already.
21st century Americans
must understand what events
happened, why these hap-
pened, and what past people
have thought as they coped
with a world and shaped it.
Understanding the present
and planning the future re-
quire some familiarity with the
past. What HWC provided
here at Kansas for so long was
a surprisingly interdisciplinary
examination of a surprisingly
broad western world.
Te Greeks were there, but
so were the Founding Fathers
and WEB Du Bois. Pauls
Christian letters stood be-
side the Koran. Dostoevsky
wrestled with internal struggle
while Locke considered con-
fict between men (then only
men) and government; Rous-
seau and Marx, respectively,
challenged the notion that such
conficts exist. Virginia Woolf
and Sigmund Freud probed
the mind and the human ex-
perience, and came to diferent
conclusions. Te conclusions,
the paths and the context, all
mattered then and now.
KU, like other schools in the
U.S., took a fresh look at hu-
manities in the wake of World
War II. Industrial slaughter,
systematic persecutions, geno-
cide, and advancing destruc-
tive technology convinced
American intellectuals that
something could be done, and
must be done, to stave of an-
other such calamity. Informed
young minds, using historical
context and cultivated reason,
could make a better future.
KU understood this in 1945,
inaugurating its HWC tradi-
tion. If HWC ceases to stand
as a requirement, it is because
the university, not the world,
has fundamentally changed.
Maintaining HWC as
an optional class, as now
stands, completely misses the
point. Te perspective ofered
through HWC provides a
foundation. And a foundation
is universally necessary before
anyone can think clearly or
build anything.
And thinking and building
are exactly what the University
of Kansas stands for.

SCHMIDT HaPPENS
ON-CaMPUS
By Marshall Schmidt
To many western Kansans, sites
like the Berexco rig site 25 miles
northwest of Liberal, Kan. arent
unusual. Tanks to a research part-
nership between Berexco, the De-
partment of Energy and the Kansas
Geological Survey, it could be one
of the frst sites used for carbon di-
oxide (CO2) sequestration in the
state.
Te drilling of the 7,500-foot
well in Cutter feld began Aug. 1.
Te research group, lead by KGS
geologists Lynn Watney and Jason
Rush, is attempting to investigate
the use of CO2 in enhanced drilling
practices and the storage of CO2 in
underground saline reservoirs.
Regardless of where the CO2
comes from, our perspective is to
get ready for the large-scale use
of CO2 for the oil felds as well as
examining the saline aquifers for
storage, Watney said. Tis would
be very useful should we have caps
on emissions from sources like
power plants and ethanol plants
that could be taken from the atmo-
sphere and stored.
University of Kansas graduate
student Christa Jackson is a mem-
ber of the team working to collect
this data. Jackson said she mixes
the test samples with reservoir core
fuids and submits them to tem-
peratures near 50 degrees Celsius
and pressures between 2,000 and
2,500 psi.
Im looking for what kind of
reactions will take place, Jackson
said. By mixing the core fuids and
the rock together and by adding
the CO2 to these experiments, we
can see what minerals dissolve and
what minerals precipitate.
Jackson said the goal in her work
is to make sure that CO2 doesnt
breach the feld.
Te DOEs National Energy
Technology Laboratory provided
nearly $21.5 million for the project.
Te remaining funds come from a
cost-share agreement among the
KGS and its partners in the energy
industry.
What the DOE is, in efect, say-
ing is today we may not need to dis-
pose of CO2 because the economic
and political considerations dont
exist, Wreath said. But that may
happen in the future. What were
going to do now, when we have
some time to fgure it out properly,
is basic research to see if the deep
Arbuckle formation in Kansas is a
safe place to dispose of CO2.

As the Kansas City Renaissance
Festival continues its annual sea-
son in Bonner Springs , attendees
are transported back in time with
an array of activities and perfor-
mances.
Te festival, now in its 36th year,
has added new attractions while
keeping old favorites.
We are sort of challenged with
the idea of coming up with some-
thing that is new but that is also
500 years old, said Will Peterson,
marketing coordinator for the Kan-
sas City Renaissance Festival. Tis
year we are anticipating a big turn-
out for our mermaid.
Te mermaid, captured by pi-
rates in the Atlantic, is housed in a
tank of water flled with shells that
she hands to onlookers. Te festi-
val has also added a secret garden,
fairy forest, barbarian battles and a
royal pub crawl.
With all the festivities looking to
be perfected, the jobs of the crew
are not a single-season ordeal.
We have a full-time staf year-
round, from marketing to getting
the site ready, Peterson said. It is
quite a bit of preparation. Weve got
to fgure out scheduling and fgure
out all the new things we are going
to do every year.
Te performers also have du-
ties outside of the festival season
whether it be casting, auditioning
or attending acting classes through
the Canterbury Conservatory.
Peterson said the Conservatory
is an academy teaching everything
from a British accent, to interact-
ing with patrons, to staying in and
developing characters. Two Kan-
sas students, Elizabeth Ernst and
Erika OShea, have made their way
through the academy and are now
festival royalty.
Ernst, princess Etiz of England,
has been visiting the festival for
seven years and has taken a liking
to her newfound royal blood.
Its a very good opportunity to
step out of other responsibilities
for awhile and make people happy,
she said. It is rather remarkable to
see a little girls face when she meets
a princess.
According to OShea, princess
Tea of Denmark, she has been
royalty all her life but a temporary
resident of Canterbury for three
seasons.
I do believe my favorite part
about being a princess is seeing the
look in the little childrens eyes as
we crown them, OShea said. Tey
get to join us in all of our games,
and playing with them is the most
marvelous thing.
Te princesses take part in four
performances throughout the day
as well as instruct others on proper
manners and discourse.
Te festival is open weekends
from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. through
Oct. 14. Tickets are $19.95 at the
gate. Te weekend of Sept. 29 has
been dubbed Lawrence weekend.
Attendees get a discount with a
valid form of Lawrence residency
or with KU Student ID. Te themes
vary from weekend to weekend and
can be found on the website.

LOS ANGELES Suspected
bank robbers feeing county sher-
ifs deputies hurled cash from
a speeding SUV on Wednesday,
drawing people into the streets
until a pickup blocked their path
and they had to surrender.
In a bizarre scene followed by
TV helicopters, a large crowd
pressed in as deputies with guns
drawn pulled two men from
the SUV in South Los Angeles.
City police came to their aid and
formed skirmish lines to move the
crowd back.
Along the pursuits route, peo-
ple were seen scooping up the
money.
Police Department spokesman
Cmdr. Andrew Smith said it ap-
peared the suspects threw the
money in hopes of drawing peo-
ple into the roadway to block the
pursuing patrol cars.
A lot of people came out their
houses, they saw this on TV,
they saw that money was being
thrown, Smith told KNBC-TV.
Several hundred people gath-
ered around the deputies during
the dangerous moment of arrest.
I think one of the folks told me
that they thought there was more
money in the vehicle and maybe
they were hoping to get a little bit
of that, Smith said.
One ofcer had a foot run over
during the incident but was ex-
pected to be OK, he said.
Te incident began 35 miles
northwest of downtown Los An-
geles in the suburban Santa Clar-
ita area where four men commit-
ted an armed bank robbery, Los
Angeles County sherifs Capt.
Mike Parker told KCAL-TV.
Te robbers fed south by free-
way and en route two robbers
bailed out of the SUV in the Syl-
mar area of the San Fernando Val-
ley. One suspect was taken into
custody there Wednesday afer-
noon but the other remained at
large.
Te SUV pursuit continued into
downtown Los Angeles where the
SUV exited the freeway and be-
gan a circuitous route through the
older, narrow streets of the citys
central and southern areas.
Te 90-minute chase came to
an end when a big, heavy duty
pickup made a right turn from a
side street and blocked the SUVs
path. It was not clear whether that
driver did so intentionally.
Wednesdays at the Union just
got a lot more favorful.
Te Student Union Association
will be hosting free cooking dem-
onstrations every Wednesday at 3
p.m. in the fourth foor lobby until
Oct. 3. Tese events will feature
experienced cooks from the Uni-
versity and Lawrence area.
We want to educate students
about how to eat healthy and
about culinary options they may
not have heard of before, said
Kelsey Ball, culinary coordinator
of the SUA.
Tis weeks demo featured Nan-
cy OConnor and Lily Siebert from
Te Merc Community Market and
Deli, a locally owned natural food
cooperative, and Kevin Roberts,
Te Food Dude. In addition to
owning four restaurants and two
cookbooks, Roberts is the host of
the TLC television show BBQ Pit-
masters and was a contender on
Te Next Food Network Star.
OConnor and Siebert showed
attendees how to prepare red qui-
noa salad with black beans, avoca-
dos and a simple salad dressing, as
well as a simple and yummy kale
salad. Tey ofered samples of two
of Te Mercs products grilled
zucchini mix with Mediterranean
couscous and cilantro-marinated
tofu.
Roberts prepared his breakfast
bagel sandwich for the crowd, as
well as an innovative way to cook
eggs using only a mug, plastic
spoon and a microwave.
I was poor as a college student,
so I had to get creative with my
techniques, Roberts said during
Wednesdays presentation.
Many students can relate to
Roberts situation. Both demon-
strations highlighted the conve-
nience of making the recipes with-
out the need of a full kitchen.
You could make this in your
dorm and eat it for days, OConnor
said about the kale salad.
In addition to their recipes,
OConnor, Siebert and Roberts
ofered students tips on snacking,
cooking techniques and nutrition-
al facts. Afer the demonstrations,
samples of each dish were served.
It went really well. Tere were
lots of students and the instructors
were very informative and recep-
tive to the event, Ball said.
Students were drawn to the
event for reasons beyond the free
food. Dustin Pickett, a sopho-
more, was frst introduced to Te
Merc a year ago, and he said the
demonstration was an educational
opportunity for him.
I learned how to use the food
they sell there to make meals more
favorful, Pickett said.
Freshman Annie Matheis said
she found the event informative
and helpful.
It taught me that there are
healthy options available in college
and to have a good diet while Im
staying here, Matheis said. Tere
are healthier options that are
afordable for student living.
Roberts demonstration of how
to nuke an egg was popular with
the student crowd.
You can basically make scram-
bled eggs in the microwave. Its
taking cooking to a whole new
level, sophomore Subha Upadhy-
ayula said of the technique.
I was actually texting my room-
mate about it while he was making
it, said Danny Sanchez, a junior.
Im not the cook in the house, so I
learned recipes I can tell my room-
mates to make.
Ball said the SUA moved the
event from the Impromptu Caf,
where it was held last semester
to the fourth foor lobby in order
to attract more students like San-
chez.
I was actually strolling through
the Union and saw the sign for it
and stopped by, Sanchez said. It
was a good show.
Next Wednesday, KU Dining
Services will host a session about
easy hummus and salsa recipes.
Afer that, Ball hopes to have a
baking demonstration on campus.
Ball said, We want to educate
students about diferent kinds
of food and open their minds to
things they didnt know about.
For more information about the
cooking demos, contact the SUA
at (785) 864-7469.

Dead Winter Carpenters, a
California-native band, will be
performing their album release
in Lawrence at the Bottleneck
next Monday, Sept. 17. Te band
released their second album in
May, titled Aint it Strange. When
asked how this album compared
to the frst time around, singer/
guitarist Jesse Dunn felt that
overall we kinda created our own
sound. When we were working on
our frst album, we had only been
together as a band for about 4 or 5
months. We had a bunch of songs
but hadnt played together that
long. Dunn felt that as a group
not only has their sound grown
over the past couple of years, but
their songwriting has, too.
Dead Winter Carpenters is an
unlikely name for a California
band, but Dunn explained that the
group is from Lake Tahoe, a ski-in-
dustry town that gets lots of snow
and cold temps. Te fve-piece
band consists of Dunn on guitar/
vocals, Jenni Charles on fddle/vo-
cals, Sean Duerr on guitar/vocals,
Dave Lockhart on upright bass
and Ryan Davis on drums. Te
band collectively agrees on Old
Crow Medicine Show as a leading
infuence, along with Ryan Adams
& Te Cardinals, Neil Young and
Nirvana.
Te group has kept extremely
busy playing several shows and fes-
tivals this year. Dunn mentioned
High Sierra Music Festival as one
of his personal favorites. Weve
played there the past two years;
its fantastic. Te band also played
at String Cheese Incidents: Horn-
ings Hideout, along with others.
When asked where he would play
if given the opportunity to play at
any festival anywhere at all
Dunn said, Coachella, if youre
trying to go popular.
Tis October, the band will
play at Railroad Earths Hangtown
Halloween Ball in California.
Delta Spirit and Blind Pilot will
play the festival as well. Its ben-
efcial for smaller bands like us to
play with bands like them, Dunn
said. It gets you more exposure
from many diferent outlets from
all over, especially social media.
Were excited about it, not only
to play with them but to see them
play.
Its not the years, honey, its the
mileage.
More than three decades afer its
original release, Steven Spielbergs
seminal swashbuckler Raiders of
the Lost Ark remains the purest
distillation of the action adventure
genre, forever embodied in the
fedora-topped, bullwhip-wielding,
globe-trotting, snake-loathing Indi-
ana Jones.
Endlessly imitated but never once
equaled, the flm that birthed an
icon has received a glorious high-
def restoration that can be seen this
Saturday as part of AMCs Indiana
Jones: Te Complete Adventures,
an exhibition meant to promote the
series Sept. 18 Blu-ray debut.
Fear not though, Indy purists.
Unlike series co-creator George
Lucas, Spielberg is not using this
re-release as an opportunity to fx
what isnt broken. Te serpents in
the Well of Souls arent blinking CGI
stand-ins, Indy still shoots the mar-
ketplace swordsman and the villain-
ous Belloq (Paul Freeman) doesnt
exclaim, NOOO! as he opens the
Ark of the Covenant and feels his
skin begin to liquefy.
When I caught Raiders dur-
ing its brief IMAX run, the only
technical diferences I saw were a
vastly improved picture and a fully
remastered, crystal clear sound-
track. Parts of the flm looked as if
they could have been shot yesterday.
Te majority of the matte paintings
and practical efects have held up re-
markably well.
Harrison Ford seems almost
impossibly young and dashing in
his frst turn as Dr. Jones, blending
bare-knuckled aggression with a
bookish charm that seems entirely
appropriate given the characters
second home in academia. Hes also
surprisingly idealistic with his It
belongs in a museum mantra and
implicit faith that the U.S. govern-
ment actually plans on letting his
university keep the Ark afer wit-
nessing its power.
Te rest of the cast is uniformly
excellent. Karen Allen exudes feisty
sensuality as Marion Ravenwood, a
consummate foil the sequels would
later try and fail to imitate. Here was
a woman who could drink hard and
fght dirty without sacrifcing her
femininity in the process. She re-
mains so much more than another
pat love interest. Other acting high-
lights include John Rhys-Davis as
the jocular Egyptian excavator Sal-
lah and Ronald Lacey as a ghoulish
Gestapo interrogator.
Something else that struck me
was the fuid, breakneck editing
courtesy of Michael Kahn and an
uncredited Lucas. Teres literally
no fat on this flm. Every chunk
of expository dialogue is succinct,
cleverly written and, perhaps most
crucially, relayed while our heroes
are in motion, fghting or feeing
their dogged Nazi pursuers.
Te violence, including decapita-
tions and exploding heads, still feels
jarring within the context of the PG
rating. Tere are no narrative gim-
cracks or dated pop culture refer-
ences, just a simple story well told.
Raiders of the Lost Ark is a flm
that was made to feel timeless, and
thats exactly what it has become.
Funny and touching without
resorting to weepy sentiment, Ro-
bot & Frank might also be the frst
flm to qualify as domestic science
fction.
Jake Schreiers Sundance win-
ner is a slight, soulful exercise that
dares to imagine the future not as
some bombed-out hellscape but
rather as a familiar gloss on our
present, complete with robot ser-
vants and marginally advanced
Skyping technology. Te flms real
strength, though, lies in the casting
of Frank Langella, who brings can-
tankerous charm to a comedy that
defly comments on the subjects of
age and memory loss.
Ex-con Frank (Langella) is a
man literally going through the
motions. Recently diagnosed with
Alzheimers, his daily routine has
dissolved into an aimless shamble:
frst to the library to pitch woo at
sweet Jennifer (Susan Sarandon),
then of to flch decorative soaps
from the store that replaced his
favorite restaurant. His adult son
Hunter (James Marsden), grudg-
ingly devoted to the father who
neglected him growing up, decides
that Frank could use a helper. One
arrives in the form of Robot, a plas-
tic fantastic robo-butler voiced with
deadpan wit by Peter Sarsgaard.
At frst the old man has noth-
ing but contempt for his shiny new
babysitter. My favorite exchange,
afer the nutrition-minded Robot
throws out all the Fruit Loops:
Frank, that cereal is for children.
Enjoy this grapefruit.
Frank sneers, fumbling for words
until coming up with the optimal
retort. Youre for children!
Tensions ease afer Frank dis-
covers Robots untapped talents as
a safecracker with a conveniently
erasable memory and decides to
resume his career as a jewel thief, a
profession he says once found him
rappelling down the walls of a ca-
sino during a hurricane.
Te new partners target is Jake
(Jeremy Strong), an insuferable
yuppie seeking to turn Jennifers
library into a kitschy museum for
the printed word. Teir plan is com-
plicated by the arrival of Franks
daughter Madison (Liv Tyler), who
doesnt want her father becoming
dependent on any machine.
Robot & Frank simply wouldnt
work without Langella, a true mas-
ter of his craf who only seems to
improve with age. His portrayal
avoids making Frank too dodder-
ing or loveable, a choice that bol-
sters the flms surprisingly poignant
third act. His presence also seems
to bring out the best in Tyler and
Marsden, both of whom turn in
frst-rate performances as Franks
ofspring-turned-caretakers. And
special mention must be made of
Robot, played by Rachael Ma in a
bodysuit inspired by the real-life
Honda ASIMO.
Schreier, a flmmaker/musician
whose band Francis and the Lights
also provides the flms agreeably
retro score, has made an art-house
crowd-pleaser that doesnt skate
by on style or schmaltz. I honest-
ly cant wait to see where he goes
from here. But he would do well to
bring Langella.

For the Kansas offensive line, it
comes down to simple math: Six is
greater than two.
Yet when trying to piece togeth-
er a core group of lineman, having
men on the left with a combined
six years of starting experience
and men on the right with two,
it creates a trickier problem than
basic arithmetic can solve.
Its a situation no Kansas coach
can cheat their way around.
It is what it is, and weve got
what we got, said Kansas offen-
sive line coach Tim Grunhard.
Were going to go with the people
we have and make them the best
they can possibly be.
Even with three seniors on the
offensive line, the inexperience
on the right side of the line has
caused coach Charlie Weis to
alter his game plans while right
tackle Gavin Howard and right
guard Aslam Sterling continue to
develop.
In the season opener against
South Dakota State, Weis called
the majority of his run plays to the
left side of the field specifically
citing the experience on that side
of the line as the cause.
While running back Taylor Cox
scored a 47-yard touchdown on a
called run to the right, the limita-
tions of the linemen effectively cut
the field in half for the Jayhawks
run game.
Grunhard said the only way to
make up for the lack of experience
that Sterling and Howard have is
to play them and coach on the fly.
But those guys on the left, seniors
Tanner Hawkinson and Duane
Zlatnik, arent leaving the younger
lineman out to dry and thats
not including the Traffic Cop,
senior center Trevor Marrongelli.
Hes the director, Grunhard
said of Marrongelli. He tells
where the guards are going and
where the tackles are going. He
tries to keep the guys going the
right way.
When Marrongelli isnt direct-
ing traffic, its Hawkinson and
Zlatnik who help Howard and
Sterling navigate through games,
serving as both strategic and men-
tal coaches for the younger guys.
You always want to make the
play, but sometimes youre going
to get beat, Hawkinson said.
When youre a younger player
you can dwell on that too much.
You just have to realize that play is
over and move on.
At the same time, Weis is judg-
ing the offensive line as a whole
group and not giving any slack to
the guys on the right. Howard and
Sterling are held to the same stan-
dards as the seniors. Grunhard
said its causing Howard and
Sterling to take larger strides in
their development.
Hawkinson and Grunhard
agree that its almost harder to
coach linemen in practice than it
is in games given the difference
in atmosphere. However, there
are techniques that can smooth
out linemen without wasting a
Saturday and Howard and
Sterling have been taking advan-
tage of them all.
Its hard to simulate what hap-
pens out there on the game field,
Hawkinson said. You just have
to get into watching film, going
over plays and taking every rep in
practice like its a game.
Edited by Stphane Roque
Coming off one of their best
games of the season, the Jayhawks
hope to improve on their impres-
sive six-game unbeaten streak
before moving into conference play
after facing the Denver Pioneers
this Friday.
Kansas took down the Missouri
State Bears last Friday evening.
The match ended in a score of
4-1 despite Kansas not playing the
best they have all year. The game
proved to be an offense-driven
game for Kansas, however, finding
three different players to score for
them.
Junior forward/midfielder
Caroline Kastor snagged two goals,
flying past the Bears defensive
units to find the back of the net.
Sophomore forward Jamie Fletcher
found the net early on in the game,
scoring off a pass from Kastor in
the 7th minute. Freshman forward
Ashley Williams continued to be
scoring presence for the Jayhawks
after she capitalized on a penalty
kick in the 64th minute.
Kastors offensive prowess
pushed Kansas to victory Sunday
against the Wolfpack of NC State,
scoring twice in the match, includ-
ing the game-clenching goal in the
59th minute.
However, credit must be given
to Kansas defensive stamina as
well, as that helped the team hold
on to the one point lead until the
match was over.
Senior forward/midfielder
Whitney Berry scored first, starting
the hard-fought match off to what
eventually would finalize as a 3-2
victory in favor of the Jayhawks.
The game proved to be one of the
best-played games of the season
for the team. That win improved
the Jayhawks to a 6-1-1 record
for the season and increased their
unbeaten streak to six games. They
plan to use the momentum against
a strong Denver team this Friday.
I think we did a good job of
dictating the game, so we need
to keep doing that, head coach
Mark Francis said. I challenged
them to perform at a little bit of
a higher level. I think weve been
pretty consistent, but can we take
it up to the next notch, take it up
a gear? Thats what I want them
to do.
The Denver Pioneers are on a
win streak of their own, coming
out victorious in their past four
games, bringing their record to
5-1-1. The team just hosted the
DU Invitational, at which they
moved past Colorado and UC
Irvine to win. This year Kansas also
hosted a tournament, the Kansas
Invitational, at which they won by
beating out UNLV and Georgia.
While the Pioneers are coming off
a good tournament victory, Kansas
has started a habit of ending oppo-
nents winning streaks, and the
Jayhawks dont plan to stop their
own win-steak with Denver.
[NC State] came in with a five-
game winning streak, but I think
we had a good performance, and
now we just have to keep playing
at that level and not drop out,
Francis said.
The Pioneers are quite talent-
ed offensively, scoring four goals
in each of the two games before
playing against Kansas. With a
strong midfield that likes to create
chances off of corners, Kansas will
have to work defensively to ensure
that the midfield is shut down.
Kansas has a strong midfield of
their own, however, and plenty of
players to use against such a like-
minded team.
Denvers off to a great start this
year, and were familiar with them,
so I think its going to be a great
game, Francis said. They try to
play the same style of soccer that
we do, and I think the midfield
is going to be the battle; whoever
controls the midfield will control
the game.
Kansas may be coming off
their best game of the season, but
Denver may prove to be one of
the most equal opponents in style
and level of play so far this year.
The team has worked hard during
practice this week, focusing all
of its energies for the only game
this weekend before jumping into
conference play.
Our goal isnt only to win, but
to keep getting better each game,
Kastor said.
The Jayhawks will host a prom-
ising match against the Pioneers
this Friday at 5 p.m., at the Jayhawk
Soccer Complex.

Two weeks into the season, as
Kansas fans were supposed to
be singing the praises of starting
quarterback Dayne Crist after two
particularly easy non-conference
home games, its been the running
game that has carried the offense
and kept the Jayhawks from staring
down an 0-2 record as Big 12 play
begins Saturday afternoon against
TCU.
Crist hasnt been awful.
But he hasnt been great, either,
throwing for 313 yards, two touch-
downs and three interceptions
against South Dakota State and
Rice. The running game, on the
other hand, has been one of the
better units in the country, cur-
rently 27th in the nation with 493
total yards. Newcomer Taylor Cox
and sophomore Tony Pierson have
led the way for Kansas with four
combined touchdowns.
There wasnt too much nega-
tive you could say about them,
Coach Charlie Weis said of Cox
and Pierson after two games.
The efficient running game is
a must, but it cant be the only
consistent force for the Kansas
offense, not with the two easiest
games on the schedule out of the
way and one of the best defensive
coaches in the country TCUs
Gary Patterson coming to town
on Saturday.
The passing game has a lot of
room for improvement, and it bet-
ter come along in a hurry because
the better your opponents are each
week, youre going to need to score
more than 24 points, Weis said
Tuesday. You can get it into the
20s when you run the ball like we
are, but you need more production
out of the passing game.
Weis is right.
With a defense as suspect as
Kansas, final scores in the 20s wont
cut it in this years Big 12 against
teams like TCU, Kansas State, West
Virginia and Oklahoma. And while
the running game has been good,
expecting more than 30 points on
the ground each week is a losing
bet.
Any great, winning offense is
going to have a solid running game,
and its awesome weve got that,
Crist said Tuesday. Now weve got
to build on the passing game.
Crist admitted he tried too hard
in his first two games in a Kansas
uniform. Weis said Crist doesnt
have to try and save the world
out there. And while a glance at the
schedule would be enough of an
excuse to try and do exactly that, it
does no good for this Kansas team.
Running the ball effectively, eating
up time of possession and playing
the passing game off that is the best
recipe for whatever success Kansas
can find this season.
Weis said theres no need for
Crist to feel he needs to do more
than hes capable of.
Im going to feed the ball to
the running backs a whole bunch
of times anyway, Weis said. And
even if they stop them Im still
going to feed the ball to the run-
ning backs. We just need to be
much more efficient when we do
throw the ball.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. The
National Association of Intercol-
legiate Athletics has put all ath-
letic programs at Haskell Indian
Nations University in Kansas on
probation through 2014 for vio-
lations involving ineligible play-
ers.
The penalty took effect Mon-
day at the Lawrence school, said
NAIA spokeswoman Kay Hawes.
No other information was pro-
vided on the associations website,
and Hawes said specific informa-
tion on violations and penalties is
available only from institutions
themselves.
University spokesman Stephen
Prue declined to comment im-
mediately Wednesday, saying the
school was drafting a statement.
In May, the school announced
investigations by the university
and the Department of Educa-
tion into claims that two student-
athletes had falsified ACT scores
dating back to 2008. It was not
immediately clear if the NAIAs
action was related to those allega-
tions.
The investigations resulted in
official action on the employ-
ees and students involved and
the discovery that three other
students transcripts were ma-
nipulated, the university said in a
news release at the time. Two em-
ployees involved no longer work
at Haskell, the release said, and
some games were to be forfeited.
The release also noted that chang-
es had been made to the schools
database and admission process.
Nedra Darling, a spokeswoman
for the Bureau of Indian Affairs,
which overseas Haskell, didnt
immediately return a phone mes-
sage Wednesday seeking com-
ment. A spokeswoman for the
U.S. Department of Education
said the agency was looking into
the matter and couldnt immedi-
ately comment.
According to the NAIA hand-
book, the use of ineligible stu-
dents leads to the forfeiture of all
contests in which the ineligible
student participated. Athletes
also lose at least one season of
eligibility.
Institutions placed on proba-
tion also must submit a written
response detailing the correc-
tive measures they plan to take.
Future violations can lead to the
suspension of programs, a move
that would bar them from post-
season play, the handbook says.
Haskell is part of the Midlands
Collegiate Athletic Conference.
The conferences commissioner,
Al Waller, said he knew few de-
tails about what happened.
Senior middle blocker Tayler
Tolefree is planning to play Loyola
Marymount like a game of one-
on-one.
Its not the standard strategy in a
volleyball match.
But when the Kansas volleyball
team goes to South Bend, Ind., this
weekend for the Golden Dome
Invitational, they expect to see an
isolation game from Marymount,
one familiar style of play among
three unfamiliar opponents.
The Jayhawks open the tour-
nament Friday against Loyola
Marymount University, a team that
likes to create one-on-one match-
ups, much like Wyoming, a team
Kansas beat last weekend.
Loyola tries to play pretty fast,
Tolefree said. So were just work-
ing on everybody handling their
own hitter, assuming that youre by
yourself.
The Jayhawks lead the Big 12
with 16.2 digs per set, 15 kills per
set, 14.1 assists per set, and a .281
hitting percentage. Junior libero
Brianne Riley leads the conference
individually with 5.7 digs per set,
junior setter Erin McNorton leads
with 12.5 assists per set, and red-
shirt junior middle blocker Caroline
Jarmoc leads with a .468 hitting
percentage.
Although none of those statis-
tics guarantee victories, they show
Kansas balance through the sea-
sons first 10 matches. That and
its efficiency will be important this
weekend, coach Ray Bechard said,
because Loyola Marymount uses
a two-setter system and aggressive
serving to increase the matchs pace.
He said a hallmark of coach Tom
Blacks teams at Marymount is an
ability to wait for opponents to beat
themselves with errors.
Coach Black did some time with
USA Volleyball, helping with their
serving strategies before they went
to the Olympics, Bechard said.
And theyre in every match because
they dont make a lot of mistakes.
Theyre just waiting for you to have
an off-stretch in a set, and theyre
going to be trouble.
Kansas played three tournaments
so far, and all of them were two-
day tournaments. This weekend, the
Jayhawks have only one match a
day: Marymount on Friday, Xavier
Saturday and Notre Dame Sunday,
giving them more time in between
matches than usual.
Riley said the extra time in
between matches would actually
help the Jayhawks, as will playing
on the road for the first time in eight
matches.
I think its good for us to get out
of our little sanctuary in here, Riley
said. I think our team could use a
little bit of rest so hopefully we can
use that to our advantage.
Bechard said fatigue added to the
need for rest. After four weeks of
tournaments, the three-day tourna-
ment would help his team be ready
physically and mentally for all three
matches, he said.
Thatll be good, especially as
you get in this deep, he said. The
wear and tear starts to show a little
bit
After Loyola Marymount, the
Jayhawks face Xavier on Saturday
and Notre Dame on Sunday. Xavier
went 21-11 in 2011 and finished sec-
ond in the Atlantic 10 Conference.
Notre Dame is the Jayhawks third
major-conference opponent of the
preconference season.
Tolefree said the Jayhawks are
unfamiliar with both of those teams,
and that the team that can adjust
better will probably win the match.
How fast can we adjust to what
system they throw at us, and how
can we figure out how to run our
system against them and figure out
what works? Tolefree said.
Bechard said he scheduled a
tough non-conference schedule on
purpose, so his team wouldnt wilt
when conference play began. But he
also said his team cant hang their
hat on their 9-1 record.
Youll be able to look back once
conference starts and say, Hey, we
played a plenty toughenough pre-
conference schedule, but weve got
to have success in these last four
matches, too, Bechard said. To this
point, nine out of 10s not bad, but
the real work lies ahead right now
over the next four matches before
conference starts.

Murray wins his First
Andy Murray is on a roll afer winning
the gold at the London Olympics last month
and now winning the U.S. Open. With leg-
endary actor Sean Connery in attendance
on Monday, Murray beat Novak Djokovic in
fve sets to achieve his frst U.S. Open title.
Murray had fallen short fve previous times
in the U.S. Open fnal but outlasted the
tough Djokovic to get the title.
Murray won the gold medal in the Mens
singles at the London Olympics last month,
as he beat out Roger Federer 6-2, 6-1, 6-4.
Murray also beat Djokovic in the semifnals
of the Olympic Games. Murray has always
had trouble beating the games top players,
but winning the Olympics and U.S. Open
will give his confdence a much-needed
boost. Murray is currently ranked No. 3 in
the world, according to the ATP ranking,
right behind Federer at No. 1 and Djokovic
at No. 2. If Murrays success continues he
will likely move up in the ATP rankings, but
it will take beating the big dogs Federer and
Djokovic more than once as they are both
proven winners. Murrays 2012 statistics in-
clude two singles titles and an overall singles
record of 40-11.
In the past the media has criticized Mur-
rays play, believing he will never get to that
elite level, but this has changed with his re-
cent success. Murray is young, healthy and
ready to not only play against the top ten-
nis players but beat them. He has only been
a professional tennis player for fve years
and feels like he has much to improve in his
game. Te next goal on Murrays list has to
be winning Wimbledon, and he has a great
chance. Roger Federer is aging, Rafael Nadal
is fghting knee injuries, and Novak Djok-
ovic knows that Murray is the real deal afer
losing to him in his last two matches.
When asked about his future, Murray
said, If I was to stop playing tennis now, Id
retire very happy, but Ive hopefully got fve
more years or so at the top of the game. Tats
what Ill try and do, if I can stay healthy and
look afer my body. Tats my plan.
Only 25 years old, Murray has tremen-
dous upside and is optimistic that hell be
one of the top tennis players in the world for
years to come.
Bears-Packers Preview
Tonight the Chicago Bears take on the
Green Bay Packers at Lambeau feld. Tis
heated rivalry will certainly feature an in-
tense, physical game with both teams loaded
with frepower. Te Bears and Packers both
believe that they are one of the best teams
in the league this year. Te Bears won their
frst game last Sunday 41-21 over a rebuild-
ing Indianapolis Colts team. Quarterback
Jay Cutler threw for 333 yards and 2 touch-
downs. Cutler and big-time receiver Bran-
don Marshall were in rhythm as well, with
Marshall catching nine passes for 119 yards
and a touchdown. Te Bears rookie receiver
Alshon Jefery displayed his big-play ability,
catching a 42-yard touchdown from Cutler.
Te Bears have always featured a great over-
all team but have continually lacked a big-
time receiver. Look for the Bears ofense to
roll this year as they are set at receiver and
have one of the games best running backs in
Matt Forte. Forte had 80 yards and a touch-
down against the Colts. Te Bears rushing
attack also features Michael Bush, who adds
a physical presence and can contribute when
Forte needs a breather. Tese two running
backs will provide the Bears with a domi-
nant ground game and will prove capable to
catch passes out of the backfeld. Ten theres
the Bears pride and joy, its defense. Players
such as Brian Urlacher, Julius Pepper, Lance
Briggs and company look to cause havoc to
Green Bay quarterback Aaron Rogers and
the Packers pass-heavy ofense.
Te Packers didnt look to be on par in
week one, losing to the San Francisco 49ers
22-30. Tis wasnt an amazing display of
ofense by the 49ers; rather the Packers
defense not really showing up to play. Te
Packers secondary blew multiple coverages
which allowed for the 49ers receivers to be
wide open for much of the game. Te Pack-
ers must improve their defense as the Bears
feature a quarterback who throws great deep
balls and has one of the leagues best receiv-
ers in Marshall.
On ofense I look for the Packers to try to
run the ball more in tonights game. On Sun-
day Aaron Rodgers was the leading rusher
with 27 yards. Cedric Benson had 18 yards
as the Packers starting running back. Tis is
unacceptable even for the leagues best pass-
ing ofense. Tey have to be able to run the
ball with success in order to set up screens,
the play action pass and big plays. Te 49ers
played most of the game in man-to-man
coverage with deep safeties as if they were
daring the Packers to run. When Rogers was
asked about the Packers ofensive struggles,
he said, We didnt have the opportunity to
take a lot of shots downfeld, but when we
did, they made some plays on it. Look for
Rodgers and the passing attack to bounce
back tonight with more big plays, more pre-
cise routes by the receivers and better deci-
sions by Rodgers. As for the running game,
I dont expect much, but the Packers did
win the Super Bowl in 2010 with a primar-
ily passing team. Look for this game to be
one of the most exciting, down-to-the-wire
games of the season thus far. Te Packers
fans will be loud and intense tonight as they
do not want to see their team fall to 0-2. Te
atmosphere will be rocking at Lambeau, as
this matchup has all the signs of a future
playof game.

DEFENSE
The jury is still out Dayne Crist. The once highly-touted quarterback has com-
pleted 33 of 64 passes for just 313 yards an average of fve yards per comple-
tion. Crist has also been easily fushed out of the pocket and forced into bad
throws. Fortunately for the Jayhawks, tailbacks Taylor Cox and Tony Pierson have
each racked up two 100-yard rushing games to pad Kansas total yard count.
Dave Campos defense leads the Big 12 in forcing turnovers (8), but has given up
more yards than any other team in the conference (814). The latter statistic comes
against two teams that combined to average 700 yards of offense per game last sea-
son. A season-ending ACL injury to Prinz Kande wont help Campo, yet senior transfer
Anthony McDonald has made the depth chart for the frst time this season and will
look to fll in the hole at linebacker.
Both TCU coach Gary Patterson and
Kansas coach Charlie Weis want to make
a statement in their frst Big 12 confer-
ence game, but its more likely to come
from Patterson. TCU comes to Lawrence
for the frst time since a 17-10 Jayhawk
victory in 1997. Ranked #16 in the na-
tion, the Horned Frogs should put up
more points than the last time they faced
the Jayhawks.
AT A GLANcE
With running back James Sims set to
return from his suspension as soon as the
fourth quarter ends on Saturday, this will
most likely be the last week of the Tony
Pierson show. Sims addition to the depth
chart will create a three-back scenario in
which Pierson, Sims and Taylor Cox fght
for touches. The speedy Pierson has re-
ceived 20 carries per game this season,
totaling 244 yards and two touchdowns.
When Sims returns those numbers will
decrease, but not because of Piersons
skills.
PLAYER To WATcH
Charlie Weis has gotten his frst taste
of defeat in Lawrence and hounded the
team in the locker room directly after be-
cause of it. Weis has wanted to change
the culture of losing connected with
Kansas football since he took the job.
His opportunity may have come much
sooner than expected, but the Jayhawks
have responded well from a loss to then
face a ranked opponent in the past. After
losing to North Dakota State in the 2010
season opener, Kansas rallied to beat
#15 Georgia Tech a week later. Weis has
an opportunity to do the same.
coAcHING
1-1 (0-0)
PREDIcTIoN 38-13, TcU
BABY jAY WILL cHEER IF ...
Sophomore kicker Nick Prolago relieved junior Ron Doherty of his kickoff
duties against Rice and has stayed on the depth chart for TCU. Coach Charlie
Weis has been looking for a kicker to replace Doherty since the season began,
and it is likely to see Prolago keeping the job until a better option comes
along.
The Jayhawks were ffteen min-
utes away from a 2-0 record and
may have let up too early on Rice.
Finishing has been a problem for
Kansas in recent seasons and has
transferred over to the Charlie Weis
era. Now back at square one, a win
against TCU would mean much more
than a loss to Rice.
?
qUESTIoN MARKS
Kansas doesnt get blown out. When accepting the head
coaching position at Kansas, Charlie Weis said he couldnt
believe the amount of games that the Jayhawks where
thrown around in. Weis largest platform was that Kansas
would be competitive throughout the game no matter the
score. TCU provides the frst test to Weis proclamation.
TCU gets off to an early start in its frst Big 12 match. The
Horned Frogs are getting ready for their frst ever conference
match, and they have their frst shot at making some noise on
the road when they face Kansas.
SPEcIAL TEAMS
MoMENTUM
BABY jAY WILL WEEP IF ...
?
What happened to Kansas in the fourth quarter against Rice and will
it happen again?
The Jayhawks were cruising toward victory until they began to coast to
the fnish line. Its clear if the Jayhawks play at anything less than 100
percent every snap they wont win, so will they? Can this Kansas team keep
its head up? And can Dayne Crist settle down enough to make big plays?
Averaging fve yards per pass wont light up too many defenses espe-
cially not TCU.

DeFeNSe
The perfectionism displayed by TCU is being brought to Memorial Stadium this
week. Patterson knows an incompletion will come at some point in this game. But the
Horned Frogs are still held to high standards and are expected to look strong on the
feld this weekend and make a big impression on their future conference rivals.
TCUs shutout win over Grambling State forces Charlie Weis to spend a lot of
time planning on how his offense will move the ball against TCU after struggling
to do so last week against Rice. Junior safety Elisha Olabode is a ball hawk and
showed that last week when he picked off Grambling State quarterback D.J. Wil-
liams for a 28-yard touchdown. TCUs defense is dangerous when it comes to
interceptions, as three of its last four picks have gone for touchdowns.
Teams normally fnd that they have
a few things to work on after their
frst game of the season. But for the
Horned Frogs, they were perfect on
both sides of the ball to start the sea-
son. Junior quarterback Casey Pachall
and freshman backup quarterback
Trevone Boykin connected with all
of their targets on all 17 total pass
attempts. TCUs defense pitched a
shutout against Grambling State.
At A GLANCe
PLAYeR to WAtCh
Since 2000, Gary Patterson has
coached the Horned Frogs to a 110-
30 record. Before being named head
coach, Patterson was the defensive
coordinator for TCU for three seasons
under the direction of former TCU
coach Dennis Franchione. Patterson
has ties to the state of Kansas as he
coached the linebackers at Pitt. State
in 1988. He was also a graduate as-
sistant for Kansas State in 1982 after
playing for them for two years.
CoAChING
1-0 (0-0)
?
qUeStIoN MARKS
TCU has a young core of players on special teams but have some standout
players. Coach Charlie Weis described freshman punt returner Deante Gray
as a home run hitter. Gray took a punt back 70 yards for the frst touchdown
of the game this past week against Grambling State. The Horned Frogs have
Jaden Oberkrom, also a freshman, who handled kickoffs and extra-point at-
tempts last week. Oberkrom did not attempt a feld goal other than an extra
point, but he made a 61-yard feld goal during fall camp and a 60-yard feld
goal in high school. TCU may consider long-range feld goals on fourth down.
SPeCIAL teAMS
TCU has a nine-game winning
streak riding on its shoulders com-
ing into Lawrence. In 24 of the last
27 games for the Horned Frogs, they
have scored at least 30 points per
game. Their offense has challenged
several defenses by scoring a lot of
points. If the Jayhawks want a shot
at TCU, they will have to play at
their level in terms of scoring.
MoMeNtUM
?
Can tCU avoid turning the ball over against Kansas?
The Jayhawks have created eight turnovers in two games so far this
season, the most of any team in the Big 12, but can they keep up the
defensive pressure? Even though Kansas let Rice steal a win at Memorial
Stadium, Coach Gary Patterson wont take the Jayhawks lightly, but will
his team be fully prepared to take care of the football against the pesky
Jayhawk defensive unit?

OklahOma State vS. lOuiSiana-lafayette
After falling to Arizona, Oklahoma State will need to
make a few statements to jump back into the polls. That
starts with the Ragin Cajuns, and for Cowboys fans any-
thing less than a blowout will be a letdown.
Prediction: Oklahoma State wins 55-21

JameS madiSOn vS. #9 WeSt virginia
After putting up 69 points on Marshall, the Mountain-
eers have had two weeks to prepare for James Madison.
With Heisman-hopeful Geno Smith quarterbacking for
WVU, it could be another fun day for Dana Holgersons
offense.
Prediction: West Virginia wins 62-13

texaS tech vS. neW mexicO
The Red Raiders new defense hasnt had to prove
themselves yet, although New Mexico might give Tech
coach Tommy Tuberville a better idea of what hes got on
his hands.
Prediction: Texas Tech wins 45-14

iOWa State vS. WeStern illinOiS
The Cyclones are riding high after defeating in-state
rival Iowa. With Western Illinois separating ISU from
conference play, the threat of a trap game is present but
not likely.
Prediction: Iowa State wins 38-10

#15 kanSaS State vS. nOrth texaS
Dont look now, but Bill Snyder has something brew-
ing in Manhattan. The Wildcats stormed over Miami last
week (52-13), and North Texas isnt exactly on par with
the Hurricanes. Ugly might be an understatement here.
Prediction: Kansas State wins 55-10

BaylOr vS. Sam hOuStOn State
Many wondered how Baylor would fare after losing so
many assets from last year. Turns out, coach Art Briles
wasnt as depleted as some thought. After Baylors 59-24
win over SMU, Sam Houston should be worried.
Prediction: Baylor wins 62-20

#14 texaS vS. Ole miSS
Beware the SEC. Ole Miss might not be anywhere near
the same level as their conferences powerhouses, but they
are not a team to sleep on. The Rebels are averaging 38
points, and Texas has yet to be challenged.
Prediction: Ole Miss wins 35-31

wIchIta, Kan. a federal judge
is refusing to throw out the sentence

u.s. District Judge Monti belot on

belot denied Jones request with-

Jones is serving a 46-month fed-

In his filing last month, Jones had

FORT WORTH, Texas
Everything seemed to go so right
for No. 16 TCU in its season
opener.
Two quarterbacks combined to
complete all 17 passes they threw,
four for touchdowns, while the
Horned Frogs rolled up 531 total
yards without a turnover. Their
defense even scored a touchdown
while allowing only 70 total yards
in a lopsided shutout victory
to inaugurate their completely
redone stadium.
And the Frogs did all of that
while playing 12 true freshmen,
twice as many as coach Gary
Patterson had ever used before in
an entire season. Redshirt fresh-
man quarterback Trevone Boykin
played the entire second half.
What Patterson did this week
was point out on film the many
mistakes they made in a 56-0
victory against overmatched FCS
team Grambling State (0-2).
Is it they really played well or
the other guy played real bad?
Weve got to put everything in
reality, Patterson said. For us,
we watch film, is that what we see
what we coach. Not necessarily
was that the case Saturday night,
but well take it.
Patterson also had another
way to get their attention, a fresh
reminder of what happened to
fellow Big 12 team Oklahoma
State. The Cowboys opened
their season with an 84-0 victory
over Savannah State, then were
ranked 18th when they lost by
three touchdowns on the road at
Arizona.
Weve got to go get ready to
play, Patterson said. You better
get better and you better keep
everything in perspective. Its
plain and simple.
TCU, whose nine-game win-
ning streak is the longest in FBS,
plays its first Big 12 conference
game Saturday at Kansas (1-1).
We expect nothing less than
what we did last week. Thats the
mindset were going to have com-
ing into the game, said quarter-
back Casey Pachall, who was 9-of-
9 passing for 201 yards and three
TDs playing only the first half in
the opener. Were not going to
lack in focus or anything because
were going to come out with high
intensity and ready to play.
Then again, that kind of atti-
tude can be expected from a
second-year starter who was also
part of the team when the Horned
Frogs completed a 13-0 season
two years ago with a victory in the
Rose Bowl.
The challenge is not to lose
focus, dont get too hyped up
about last week, senior linebacker
Kenny Cain said. Last week was
last week.
This is easily the youngest team
for Patterson, who with his 110th
victory last weekend passed Dutch
Meyer to become the winningest
coach in TCU history.
TCU has also won 24 consecu-
tive conference games, but all of
those were in the Mountain West
while winning that leagues title
the last three years.

Quick Note: All fantasy advice is
doled out as of Wednesday. Pay
attention to fantasy football news
throughout the days leading up to
Sunday to ensure your players will
be active for their respective games.
Week one of the fantasy football
season is ofcially in the books,
and if there is one thing I have
learned about this strategic game
in my seven years playing it, its
that a matchup is never over until
the last second ticks of on Mon-
day night. My heartbreaking 1.74
point defeat last week is evidence.
One would think a 17-point lead
heading into Monday nights game,
with only a kicker going for the
other team would be a comfortable
position to be in for an opening
week W in fantasy. Nope. San
Diego kicker Nate Kaeding put my
opponent on his back and carried,
rather kicked his way to an im-
probable come-from-behind win,
putting me in an early 0-1 hole
and wondering how everything
fell apart at the last minute.
Im sure everyone has simi-
lar sob stories, and believe me,
Ive played enough fantasy foot-
ball to know that kickers are
easily capable of 20-point plus
performances.Te lesson here is
keep the overconfdence to a mini-
mum, no matter how much you
are up on your opponent heading
into the fnal NFL games of the
weekend.
Enough of my week one lament-
ing, lets get to this weeks very frst
startem/sitem post.
StARteM
Robert Grifn III, Washington
Redskins QB
If youve paid any attention to
the opening weekend of the NFL,
youd know that RG3 put up an
incredible fantasy point total for
a rookie starting his frst game.
320 yards and two passing touch-
downs plus 40 yards rushing is a
solid fantasy performance for any
fantasy quarterback, let alone a
rookie. Grifn isnt likely on the
waiver wire afer his breakout per-
formance on Sunday, but Id start
him over the likes of Michael Vick,
Tony Romo and both the Manning
brothers. Dont let that scary Rams
defense deter you from starting
Grifn this weekend.
C.J. Spiller, Bufalo Bills RB
Bills starting running back Fred
Jackson confrmed what his fan-
tasy owners had feared this whole
of-season; hes fragile. Afer accu-
mulating 15 yards in the frst quar-
ter, Jackson went down with an
apparent knee injury. Word com-
ing out of Bufalo is that Jackson
should be back in 3-4 weeks, but
in the meantime Spiller made the
most of his opportunity, rushing
for 169 yards, including a 56-yard
touchdown scamper against an
above-average New York Jets run
defense. Start him with extreme
confdence this week against Kan-
sas City.
Reggie Wayne, Indianapolis
Colts WR
Tanks to Peyton Mannings
absence last season, Wayne was
a non-factor in the fantasy foot-
ball realm. Anyone having Curtis
Painter chucking passes their di-
rection is likely to take a produc-
tion hit, and Wayne was unfor-
tunately in such a position. Tis
season is diferent with the addi-
tion of number one overall draf
pick quarterback Andrew Luck.
Luck didnt look particularly im-
pressive in his debut, but Wayne
showed that he has plenty in the
tank at age 34, as demonstrated
by his 135-yard receiving efort
in week one. Luck will progress
throughout the year, and I fully
expect Wayne to be the direct ben-
efciary of Lucks improvement.
SIteM
Michael Vick, Philadelphia
Eagles QB
Let me start by saying, if Vick is
the only realistic starting quarter-
back on your roster, you have to roll
with him. Im operating under the
pretenses that if you drafed Vick,
like I did, you drafed some insur-
ance for him in the later rounds.
Vick faces a stout defense in Bal-
timore, and Ed Reed sure looked
like his old self against the Bengals
on Monday night. If the Ravens
can contain A.J. Green, what do
you think theyll do to the smaller
and easily pushed around DeSean
Jackson? With Jeremy Maclin in
serious doubt to miss this week-
ends game because of a hip injury,
Vick simply doesnt have the ofen-
sive frepower to compete with the
Ravens secondary and safeties.
Kevin Smith, Detroit Lions RB
Smith almost single-handedly
carried me to two victories in fan-
tasy last weekend against a porous
Rams run defense. Tat will all
change this Sunday when Smith
squares of against what is argu-
able the best run defense in the
past decade. No one runs for big
games on the 49ers, and if Smith is
to get any fantasy value, it will be
through the air, not on the ground.
Too risky for me, and there are
plenty of other running backs fac-
ing much easier matchups that you
could start in place of him.
Mike Wallace, Pittsburgh
Steelers WR
Wallace went predictably high
in fantasy drafs this year, and I am
one of the fortunate owners to not
roll the dice on him. Wallace is the
prototypical boom-or-bust wide
receiver. Tere are games hell get
you 28 fantasy points with long
touchdowns and dazzling speed to
go with it, but then there are the
games where it appears as if Wal-
lace isnt even on the feld.

PACKeRS (-6):
Everyone knows that the Pack-
ers strength lies in the passing
game, and that the rest of the team,
aside from Clay Matthews and his
luscious, glorious, golden locks,
really hasnt lived up to the level
of greatness exhibited by Aaron
Rodgers. Da Bears on the other
hand started out slow but picked
up their play in the second half,
stomping a terrible Indianapolis
Colts team. Its a short week, and
with how bad the replacement of-
fcials calls have been so far, theres
no way either team will fnd much
breathing room in this one.
Pick: Da Bears

tAMPA BAY BUCCANeeRS @
New YoRK GIANtS(-8.5)
Te Giants became the frst de-
fending Super Bowl champion to
lose in the NFL kickof game since
it became a yearly addition to the
NFL slate in 2004.
Judging from his appearance on
Saturday Night Live last spring,
Im not sure Giants quarterback
Eli Manning is capable of showing
emotion, but if he is, you can bet
he doesnt want to start the season
with back-to-back losses.
Pick: Te New York Giants

ARIzoNA CARDINALS @ New
eNGLAND PAtRIotS( -13.5)
Te Cardinals havent said who
will start at quarterback this week,
but they managed to reignite their
preseason quarterback controver-
sy afer starter John Skelton went
down. Honestly, it doesnt matter
who starts for them, because nei-
ther one deserves to keep Tom
Bradys Uggs warm, let alone play
on the same feld as Brady.
Pick: New England Patriots
New oRLeANS SAINtS (-2.5)
@ CARoLINA PANtheRS
No one wouldve thought each
of these teams would open the
season with losses. Maybe Cam
Newton scammed Carolina fans
into thinking hes better than he
is, but more likely hes in a sopho-
more slump. And seeing that he
couldnt spend more than one
year at a single institution, Im
willing to venture that he doesnt
have experience getting out of
these slumps.
Pick: New Orleans Saints
KANSAS CItY ChIefS
@ BUffALo BILLS (-3)
I dont think either of these
teams fan bases are too encour-
aged afer they both allowed 40+
points in their season openers.
Tis game probably will have
signifcant implications as to the
draf order this coming April. Its
almost a shame this game is being
played so early in the season, fans
are being deprived of the hype that
would surround a Matt Barkley
bowl if these teams were to meet
in December.
Pick: Bufalo Bills
Minnesota Vikings(-1.5)
@ indianapolis Colts
Despite winning last week, Vi-
kings fans should be very con-
cerned that they let Blaine Gabbert
put up 23 points and a 96.1 passer
rating. Luck might be a rookie
that threw three interceptions
last week, but I still would rather
have him starting than a Missouri
graduate.
Pick: Indianapolis Colts
BALtIMoRe RAVeNS @
PhILADeLPhIA eAGLeS (-2.5)
I have no idea how the Eagles
are favored afer Michael Vick
threw four interceptions against
the Cleveland Browns last week.
Flacco became the nations second
most prominent unibrow afer
the emergence of Anthony Davis
on the basketball scene. Flacco
could regain his status as the best
unibrowed athlete by guiding the
Ravens to the Super Bowl this sea-
son.
Pick: Baltimore Ravens
Monday night Football:
denVer bronCos @
atlanta FalCons (-3)
Maybe ESPN gave credit to the
wrong person when they pro-
fessed their love for Tim Tebow
last season. Perhaps the magic re-
ally belonged to Vice President of
Football Operations John Elway.
Te last four seasons that Elway
was ofcially involved with the
team, theyve made the playofs-
and won two Super Bowls.
Pick: Denver Broncos
Padways picks of the week
nFl PrediCtiOns
By Ethan Padway
epadway@kansan.com
MANHATTAN, Kan. When
John Hubert scored on a 95-yard
run in No. 15 Kansas States sea-
son opener, nobody could blame
him for cherishing the moment.
He doesnt get there all that of-
ten.
Te 5-foot-7 running back ran
for 970 yards last season, but he
rarely reached the end zone
hallowed ground belonging to
quarterback Collin Klein, the
quarterback-turned-battering
ram who racked up 27 touch-
downs rushing during the Wild-
cats 10-win season.
We give John a lot of grief,
tight end Travis Tannahill said
with a laugh. He always runs the
ball and always gets pushed out at
the two or the one, and then, oh,
let Collin get another QB sneak.
He gets quite a bit of grief for
that.
Even in postgame news confer-
ences, the scrum of TV cameras
usually disbands from Hubert the
moment that Klein steps to the
podium. Hubert is lef with his
hands in his pockets, talking to
a few reporters straggling behind
the rest of the pack.
I set my goal to get a thou-
sand yards, Hubert said afer the
Miami game last weekend, never
mentioning anything about scor-
ing touchdowns. Tats what Im
going to do.
Kansas States red-zone scoring
formula was on display again Sat-
urday, when Klein scored three
touchdowns rushing two of
them from a yard out in a 52-
13 romp over the Hurricanes.
Getting the Wildcats to that
point, however, fell on the shoul-
ders of Hubert.
While words like shify and
elusive tend to describe run-
ning backs of a similar stature,
thats not necessarily the case
with the Wildcats junior ball car-
rier. Many of his yards come afer
frst contact, and its not uncom-
mon for several defenders to gang
up in bringing him down.
Last season, Hubert had three
100-yard rushing games, and he
already has two this season: He
ran for 152 yards in the opener
against Missouri State, highlight-
ed by the second-longest run in
school history, and went for 106
yards against the Hurricanes.
Hell try to make it three
straight Saturday against North
Texas.
He never stops, Klein said.
He runs extremely hard. Some-
times hell bounce of two or three
people and just keep motoring
right along. He will punish you.
Sounds a lot like Klein, too.
Watching Hubert battle
through much bigger players,
powerful legs churning furiously,
ofen inspires his teammates.
Wide receiver Curry Sexton
compared the momentum gener-
ated from Huberts carries to the
adrenaline infusion the team ex-
periences when defensive players
get sacks.
When you see John out there,
running a guy over, stif-arming
a guy, that gets the team going a
lot, Sexton said. Johns not a big
guy, but he runs big. When you
see John run a guy over whos
twice his size that kind of gets the
teams juices fowing.
Hubert wasnt hotly recruited
out of Waco, Texas. He showed up
simply trying to make a name for
himself, and wound up earning
the starting job last season over
Bryce Brown, the heavily touted
Tennessee transfer who eventu-
ally lef the program.
Now, even though Angelo
Pease gets the occasional carry,
Hubert is clearly the No. 1 run-
ning back, even if hes not always
the No. 1 option in the running
game.
Te coaches have a lot of faith
in him, Tannahill said. Since
he got here hes just been putting
confdence in the coaches eyes.
Teyre the ones who make the
call and obviously they see some-
thing in him that they dont from
the other guys.
