Are you starting to feel the excitement of the return of college football? For us Kansas fans, it’s more like dread. You know there’s only about a 10% chance that KU is even going to be competitive on any given Saturday, and it’s been like that since 2010.

I for one am getting beat down.

I even worry about the 2018 season opener against FCS Nicholls State, and today, you’ll see why.
