Episode Details

For only the second time in the Bill Self era, Kansas opened the season with a loss. And there was no guesswork about what went wrong for the Jayhawks against Duke in the Championship Classic. KU committed an incredible 28 turnovers. Is this a problem that can be fixed? KU beat writer Jesse Newell joined SportsBeat KC host Blair Kerkhoff to break down the game. Also, the Chiefs haven’t named a starting quarterback for Sunday’s game at Tennessee. But Matt Moore met the media on Wednesday and spoke to the opportunity to play for Andy Reid and with Patrick Mahomes.
