Eli Drinkwitz had plenty of praise for Kansas' associate head coach Andy Kotelnicki ahead of Friday's rivalry game.
Kansas also needs to protect Marshall. The offensive line did not allow a sack against LIU, but Missouri will bring more pressure and physicality. Keeping Marshall upright will allow Kansas to run its offense instead of constantly playing behind the chains.
In his first start for the Jayhawks, Marshall recorded 246 passing yards and two touchdowns on 14-for-19 passing, along with 49 rushing yards on seven carries. At a position of doubt for Lance Leipold’s Kansas Jayhawks, Marshall certainly eased some nerves with a calm pocket presence and strong ground game.
