Zac Taylor on Ganz’ ability to step up and lead this team:

“He’s been ready for it the last three years,” Taylor said. “I know Joe didn’t want it to happen like this, but he’s the most confident person I’ve ever been around in my entire life. He knows this offense way better than I ever did.”

Ganz is excited to take the reigns. This is what he said last Saturday:

“I want to get my team to a bowl game,” Ganz said. “It’s my job to win these next three games and get our team to a bowl game. We can end the season on the right foot. If it falls on my shoulders, I love the pressure.”

Beating undefeated KU on their field would certainly be an auspicious debut.

Go Ganz. Go Big Red.
