The funny thing about about Texas is, you look at them on paper and they should be way better than Kansas

The funny thing about ksu is that you look at them on paper and they shouldn't be any better then KU, but the big difference is they have LHC LHC Bill Snyder and they're at home, which will result in KU losing by at least 3 touchdowns
What paper do you suppose he's looking at?

There are hundreds of KU fans on that board that are still convinced that their players are on the same level...The last 7 years have plunged them into an unhealthy state of denial.

What's really going to hit home...is when we don't have LHBC anymore...and KState still tromps them. It might wake them up as to what the future looks like for their basketball school.

We had our big day last Saturday.
This week reality returns in a pumped stadium of overall wearing hillbillies, a coach possibly playing his last game who is idolized even though he's this far from using a walker, a bowl bid by simply taking care of business, and their most hated rival teed up to be treated like a pinata.

It's back to our traditional road game performance.  Those of us watching will be drinking everything that's left over from Thanksgiving.

That's actually a really solid take. ... impressed.  Although the bowl bid is already assured...this win on Saturday just moves us up a rung. 8 wins is looking likely. TCU has issues. Shoulda been 10 wins but let a couple close ones slip, (no Klein bailouts)

Honestly, I expect KU to get the first points and for us to be tied at the end of the first, then we go up a couple scores by half and make it embarrassing in the third. Hubes gets at least one TD. :ksu:

UTEP 2009. It's not the longest ever

Uh, yes it is.
It's late or early....but what is going on with this?

It's the last time they won a road game.

Thank you.

That guy is saying that they don't have the longest road losing streak but they do. They have the longest FBS streak ever. The only other longer documented road losing streak is from a D2 school from the 1920s and 30s, and they use this to deny they have the longest streak, as if we compare D2 records to FBS records in any other aspect of college sports.

It's not the fault of the LJ-W... They believe this because the Rivals/Scout/247 recruiting rankings annually place their class equal to, or above, ours. 

The difference lies in the intrinsic values, guys.

Any given Saturday.
We are LHC Bill Snyder's super bowl though. He likes to destroy Kansas on a regular basis to distract the KSU fanbase from his bowl record and overall lack of success at a high level. He gets what he can out of KSU, but not much more.

Yet they tear the goalposts at the drop of a KU basketball dorm panties

Thank you for fleshing that out for me.  That's a nice stat to put KU's troubles into perspective.

Our players are, in real life, bigger, faster, stronger, more athletic, and better conditioned. But, some internet website that pretty much gives 80% of college recruits the same rating says their players were almost as good 4 years ago.

It is their only road win during the Obama presidency. It's a shame they beat UTEP, because being winless would be a truly remarkable factoid.
