In the first three games, there was a glaring weakness with Alley’s defense, though, and Kansas completely exposed it — the big play. “Gave up one or two big plays.”Unlike Ohio and Pitt, Kansas broke off a lot of big plays. That’s fine, Alley’s defense can give up one, or two big plays, and the offense should still have a chance to win the rest of the game. Alley’s defense gave up four scores of 10-plus yards and three were of 30 yards or more. On a couple of big plays, there were missed tackles, even on the kickoff return touchdown on special teams.
