tcu and baylor both will beat us by as much as they want to so those percentages are way off. but it's awesome that no one else is going to be great and that we are exceptional at beating average teams. 8-4 here we come!

Hate to be Nancy Neg, but that is a very optimistic forecast.

4 points away from 12-0.

Not trying to be a dick, but that 1.5 O/U is so hard to pick for KU.

Those numbers all look pretty spot on. This feels like a 7-5 team.

If I had to bet on one of those I'd take KU and the over

I'd take the ISU under.

Edit: Nevermind, that's overall record. I was thinking it was Big 12 win total and couldn't for the life of me figure out where ISU was finding 3 wins.

The TCU over is super tempting.

I think the margin for deviation is pretty low. Defense and ST will be good enough that we probably won't go under six (3 non-con rummies, KU, ISU, plus one more).

I think the difference between 6-6 and 8-4 all happens in this group: @Tech, @Texas, WVU. Win all three? 8-4. Lose all three? 5-7. But I just don't think we're losing all three. I think we win two. 7-5.

I'm marking TCU, Baylor, OU, and @OSU as losses. However, with three of those being home games...eh, you never know.

So is the OSU over.

MixBerryCrunch · « **Reply #17 on:** May 28, 2015, 05:18:44 PM »

Depending on how good OSU is we should go 8-4 or 9-3. If WVU finally gets their crap together we might go 7-5 but I would bet against that.

See, that makes me think we can steal one of those games. So 1-3 vs. TCU, BU, OU and OSU, 2-1 vs. Tex, WVU, Tech, and 2 W's vs. ISU and KU. I feel it's an 8-4 season unless either the offense is epically bad or somehow Banks/Delton go all Cam Newton on everyone.

Pete · « **Reply #22 on:** May 28, 2015, 10:15:26 PM »

I am not convinced our offense can score enough to justify more than 5-7 on paper. I think we win ONE out of WVU, Tech, Texas, OU and OSU. 6-6 is the number, boys.

I've got us at 8-4, but I might reevaluate if practice talk indicates that Banks is a stud. The Big 12 just is never as tough as you guys claim it's going to be.

What in the world of dogshit big 12 defenses and the last 20 seasons of LHC Bill Snyder football would lead any rational person to think kstate will have trouble scoring the football????
