SportsBeat KC: Why Mizzou, K-State and Kansas could all use a conference-play restart
The losing trends on the gridiron continue at Missouri, Kansas State and Kansas. Conference play hasn’t been good for any of them. The Wildcats gave great effort in falling to Oklahoma. The same cannot be said for Mizzou against Tennessee and KU against Iowa State.
In this episode of SportsBeat KC, The Star’s daily podcast, college beat writers Lila Bromberg, Kellis Robinett, Jesse Newell and Gary Bedore break down the teams they cover — all three are 0-2 in conference play — as the midway point of the season approaches.
Also, with basketball around the corner, the Jayhawks held their annual Late Night men’s hoops scrimmage last week. We talk about that, too.
