Title: Hypothetical: If you were coach of the team right now
Post by: WildCatzPhreak on November 09, 2009, 08:54:18 AM
Would you completely blow off the MU game and focus on Nebraska?

Or do you do what Bill does and put the NU game at the back of your mind until Missouri is out of the way?

F^ck the NU game.  That game is completely worthless in the grand scheme of things.

Do you really think blowing off a bowl game to put your team in a winner takes all matchup on the road is sound thinking?  I would hope that Snyd's would be pissed off when they watch the film against uk and they guys will come out of the tunnel with something to prove.

Have the youngsters focus on the MU game while the master is focused on Nubb.

Have to beat MU first.  I still think ku can beat NU.

Doesn't matter. If Nebraska losses to ku and wins the rest, they are 5-3 with the tie breaker over us. The Missouri game doesn't amount to much in terms of the Big 12 North race unless teams are dropping like flies. Beat Nebraska and we are in.

Problem is because we lost that game to La La we're not bowl eligible yet.  We need to beat Missouri it's a big game for us gets us a bowl game and gets us a winning record in conference.  I think both o :piratewave:f those are important milestones.   Also be nice to re-establish the fact that Snyder owns both ku and MU.

I would hit up the AD for an extension and focus all my efforts on that.  Added bonus would be getting an extension with a ridiculously large secret buyout!

I bolded the part that's relevant to the OP's question for you.

i look at the rest of the reg. season as a three step process.

1. Beat MU, become bowl eligible
2. Beat NU, win the North
3. Beat Texas, win the Dr. Pepper

4. Hopefully get matched up with some non-bcs team in the fiesta and then rectify Ell's 2 minute drill.

Gotta beat Mizzou, it's the only game that matters this week.  The way the conference has played out this year, it's kind of stupid to count on ANYTHING with regard to other teams more than one week out.

The MU game is huge, and anyone who doesn't think that is a complete and utter Tard . . . like a 41st degree Tard in fact.

Wrong IMO.  The kids have worked too hard this year to not get to a bowl.  Win MU and that goal is achieved.  Then move on to Nebraska and play off of the... "1 game to the CCG".

Gotta, GOT TO win this weekend and earn bowl eligibility. The importance of a bowl this season cannot be overstated. The last thing I'd want to see is the NU game become an all or nothing scenario, bowl + north title or go home with nothing.

assuming we beat mizzou and nubb beats uk, then you'd have to think that all of the pressure will be on nebraska.  they were expected to win the north by most before the season started, so they have to live up to that. 

plus, the smartest college football fans in the nation will turn on their ass if they get behind early.  the khatz really have no pressure as long as we beat mizzou.  we're bowl bound.  better than predicted.

pretty sure that bo and his band of retards will piss down their leg.
