I'm sure we will have plenty of hate watching opportunities in the future. For now, he rides the bench for a team that can't beat Oklahoma State.

Remember all that extra talent they have over us? Let’s not forget about the scenery!

What is it? Academic prowess or something?

Mahomes is a sneakerhead, so maybe baby Mahomes also really likes fashion and all those uniform combinations convinced him to go there.

What if we are just good now? This team looked much different than last week.

Tulsa loss might end up being the best thing that ever happened to this team. Gave them a harsh reality check very early in the year and looked like a completely different team this week. We'll see if it continues into big 12 play.

It's certainly possible, I thought Oklahoma State was going to look more like this than the Tulsa game coming into the season.

He's getting paid a lot of money to ride that bench. Probably more than we could have afforded to pay him to play 🤷‍♀️ certainly a load off our nil.

There's no way he's making more at Oregon than he was here, he took a paycut to play for a contender that would prepare him for the league. We'll see how it works out for him I guess.

His deal with Oregon is around $2M while at Nebraska is $3.5M but considering we are paying AC $2.5M I'm betting Nebraska wasn't going to continue paying his rate. So while I'm wrong about Oregon paying him more I'm not about us not being able to afford him.

I'll wait till we get into Big Ten play to make any big claims about AC.

Based on...one game that wasn't exactly a glamour win?
