A Lawrence column contrasts Kansas Universitys football prosperity with Haskell Indian Nations University struggles since NAIA status began in 2000. It notes Haskells 19-64 record in eight seasons, no TV or bowl money, sparse alumni support, a decrepit stadium, no tuition yet low retention, and calls for wealth redistribution in college football.

An expert says Kansas University’s place in the BCS could depend less on the Big 12 title game than on scenario math. Jerry Palm suggests no clear path to four at large bids without Kansas, potentially keeping KU headed to the Fiesta Bowl regardless of Missouri-Oklahoma results. Hawaii also eyes a possible seventh berth if they finish in the top 12.
