• Gill re-emphasized that KU’s defense played well against Nebraska. The Jayhawks tackled well, created turnovers and were physical.

• The whole team is competing well. Gill says that has especially been the case the last three games.

• Gill says he and Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy talk quite a bit.

• Gill’s keys to the game: 1. Score touchdowns; 2. Have ball security; 3. Create three or more takeaways on defense; 4. Continue to tackle well.

• KU safety Lubbock Smith is doubtful for the OSU game with a concussion.

• Gill believes the potential is there for KU to build a dynasty and build a program in football. That’s why he accepted the job at KU.

• Quinn Mecham will start at quarterback for KU. Gill says KU could play both Mecham and Jordan Webb.

• KU will do different things to disrupt the timing of OSU’s passing offense. The biggest goal is to disrupt OSU quarterback Brandon Weeden.

• Last week, Webb was somewhat limited in practice. He did get some reps. This week, Webb shouldn’t be limited at all.
