That's a good sign for us, at least according to Petro before the last game.  He said that if the spread was 5-6, he expected KSU to keep it a game, but if it were 10+, he expected a blowout.  I believe the spread was 11.

That line is the definition of "free money".

Just a quick word of caution.  He said the exact same thing regarding our game against Mizzou.  (Our spread at Columbia was 5 1/2.)

I went against him and won.

That said I am avoiding betting this one....this blackout thing scares the $hit out of me (sarcasm.)

6 pts is a lot to give at home.  i wouldnīt touch this game, and not just because i donīt always trust myself to stay rational on ksu games.
"these are no longer “games” in the commonly accepted sense of the term. these are free throw shooting contests leavened by the occasional sprint to the other end of the floor."

The main problem being that they're better at every position than we are...and their backups are better than our starters at the 1 and 5.

Yeah . . . but KSU should've kept Jim Wooldridge.

I nominate Jim Wooldridge for next ku coach.  HE WAS AN EYELASH AWAY FROM 9-1 IN THE BIG XII!!!

I would have to say KSU never should have hired him, but that would just be too easy...and, it's in the past..

Move on.

I agree.  ku is playing so well right now.  I'm not a bettin' man, but I would toss some $$$ at ku giving the 4.5 right now.

Heck, I'd toss money at ku if the line was 15.
