GAMETHREAD: v. Kansas (3GMS)

So, not all Classic Logos are created equal...
Finally I don't have to go scouring through official athletics sites to get a bead on the opposition. Kansas (9-3) has already been destroyed by Arky (15-3) and Arky isn't having the best of years. Still, a series is different from a mid-week and the Jayhawks expect big things from their middle relievers.
This should be a great final warm-up before SEC play. If our own concerns about middle relief are true, it will definitely show this weekend. But even if we have problems, our offensive prowess should be enough to pull us out of a jam.
TV starts next weekend, and with no basketball, It's Hawthorne & Hanagriff all weekend long.
Weather will be just fantastic this weekend. 70 and breezy.
Still no official word on Landry's Hammy, but I still expect Deshawn to start for him, at least for tonight.
