most disappointing ksu season?

[fatty fat fat]

disappointing 

[FBWillie]

04 really stung the most as I just started a new job and everyone I worked with was a ku fan and took great delight in watching me suffer... I didn't know everyone that well, so telling them to &@#% off wasn't taken lightly.

2001, no question.

[catdude33]

I voted for 2001, but the way 1998 ended is the most disappointing thing that's ever happened in my entire life.

[cireksu]

04 for sure.

[ksuftballfan1]

04- we had high expectations coming off a big 12 championship and not even making it to a bowl game disappointed me the most

[catzacker]

For the ones you listed, I'd rank them as such:

1 - '04
2 - '01
3 - '05

excluding '98, the year I was probably the most disappointed was 2002....7 freaking points.   Although now, I'd give anything to have that kind of "disappointment".

What about 1987?  Winless season and a loss to Austin Peay State.  The fans would have been on cloud nine to have a 6-6, 4-7, or 5-6 season back in those days.

1992 and really 1982 as well.

2005 was like spit in the face after getting kicked in the nuts (2004).

And if we include the Fiesta Bowl  (1/2/04), 2004 doubly sucked.

[michigancat]

Anyone with half a brain saw the writing on the wall in 2004.  I predicted a loss to Fresno, and none of the losses really surprised me.

2001 was like a brick in the face.  That was a pretty salty team that just gave games away.

Before the season started, did you really think that the o-line and DM was going to be that bad?  Combo that with the defense falling off the face of the map.  If so, major Nostradamus props.

That season was much closer to my expectations than 2001.  That's all I'm saying.

1904 was a crapty year.

That doesn't stop it from being disappointing, numbnuts.

[KSU176]

04.  Sitting at home during bowl season absolutely sucked.

[catfan28]

End of 1998- agonizing pain
2001- disappointing
2004- frustrating


The loss to ku in Lawrence in 04 made me realize
that we took our past "Snyder success" for granted....
I knew then we were about to turn to a different chapter.

qft. we were still "the sh1t" during that timespan.

[cireksu]

In 01 i figured that breaking in a new qb in the big 12 wouldn't be a walk in the park, esp having to play NU in lincoln, and OU in Norman and Tech away.  Colorado was the only real suprise suckage that year.

Completely. Even the bowl game was pathetic. Syracuse had yet to master the forward pass and we still lost.
I don't know how anyone could vote for anything but '01.

[greasd up deaf guy]

Did we still have Ron Hudson in '01? I remember Kentucky trying to run the same qb run plays with Lorenzen (lols) after he was here.

2001 gets props for getting to a bowl (with a brutal schedule) and holding MU and ku to w/o a TD for what seemed to be the 15th consecutive year. However, they were way more talented than 6-6, and losing 4 straight big 12 games when you had gone 34-6 the past 40 was just plain weird.

2004 gets my vote because of how easy the schedule was, and going 4-7 is just awful no matter the season. Seriously..4-7. They also just blew a bunch of games with terrible special teams, and that defense was depressing. the team was also coming off a conference title, so there must have been more talent.

2005 was pretty excusable. extremely young team.

[KSU4ME]

2001:
One of the 10 toughest schedules
Top 5 rushing offense
Top 3 total defense
Win at USC
Destroy ku
Go to bowl game


2004:
Middle of the road schedule
#25 rushing offense
#43 total defense
Destroy NU
Lose to ku, breaking the streak
Blow bowl hopes by giving up 3 TDs in the final 3:30 to ISU

Oh yeah, and 2004 was the year we had to weep as Sproles didn't get the send off he deserved.
