New Faces & Bigger Expectations By Brennan Keller Charlie Weis accepted the head coaching position at the University of Kansas fully aware that he had a major rebuilding project ahead of him. Weis, who has been around the game of football since 1979, has the coaching ability to rejuvenate a program that won the BCS Orange Bowl only five years ago.

Well, KU lost. Here are my thoughts. But we can take solace in the fact that other teams lost in a myriad of more embarrassing ways. Falling from Grace Where to begin? How about Arkansas getting taken out of the Top 25 entirely by Louisiana Monroe? Razorback fans are going to make the excuse that QB Tyler Wilson left the game at halftime due to injury, but come on, shouldn’t the #8 team be able to beat the Warhawks with their 3rd string in the game?
