Just another example of why the situation that Mangino walked into was not anywhere close to what Snyder walked into at KSU.

ku football is still dead, they are just less dead then the rigor mortis infested Big 12.  Timing is everything to be the best dead team in a dead conference. :frown:

4 teams in the top 15 is a "dead conference"?

ku is leading the big 12 so the only reasonable explanation is that the big 12 must be absolutely horrible.  And if the big 12 has 4 teams in the top 15 then the only reasonable explanation is that the entire nation must be terrible.  Right?

Sometimes, the moons & stars align just right. ku fans should just count their blessings & be happy.  No other time in the history of college football would they be ranked with that team.

Our conference is benefiting from the national perception of KSU's DoD.  If we are middle of the pack, than it stands to reason the the teams above us must be really good.  Since we were the only team with the balls to play someone out of conference the sham continues until Big 12 gets exposed in the Bowl Season.  After Bowl season, we will be lucky to have one team in the top 25.  OU = #9  all the rest 20 - 50. Just being honest.

Balls to play anyone?  For years KSU was chastised for playing soft schedules?  Where do you think Jabba got it from?

Wow, Hatter. That's a huge reach.

So TA beat Texas Tech on the road.  Okay.  He also lost to SMU, got embarrassed at home by San Diego State, and fielded a team full of 1-AA talent in his final year on campus.

What, exactly, are you trying to argue here?  That Mark Mangino walked into a quality situation when he accepted this job? 

Come on.  Rivalry smack aside, you know better than that.

You've got to stop using "Mangino" and "dead" in the same sentence, you're going to upset the squawks.  Of course since he's leaving for Notre Dame at the end of this season he might live long enough to make it out of Lawrence.

I think he's trying to argue that it took your coach 6 f-ing years to finally beat a south team not named Baylor.

In contrast, Ron Prince accomplished that in his 10th game as head coach.
It is a tragedy because now, we have at least an extra month without Cat football until next year. I hate wasting my life away but I can hardly wait until next year.

It must suck to have to sit through 5 straight years of sub .500 big 12 play, before your coach has a decent season.

5 straight years??  How about 11 straight years of sucking ass in the Big 12 before doing anything.

Plus, the season is far from over, but many ku folks have already crowned ku Big 12 champs.

You can play whoever you want, just don't expect to be crowned a legitimate top 25 team until you beat someone with a pulse.

How is being the BCS #8 not a "legitimate" top 25 team?

The k-state win was tainted by consecutive phantom hand to the facemask calls on AA effectively killing any momentum we had to completely squash you in the 1st quarter.

Colorado just sucks and caught OU on a bad day.....it happens.

Face it, you are the beneficieries of probably the worst overall qualty of football being played in the history of the game.  The big 12 is probably at its lowest point since the incepetion of the league.  Any one of our teams through out the D of D would smite this year's ku team.

Texas A@m vs Miami
Osu vs Georgia
Ou  vs Miami
Nu vs Usc
Colorado vs Arizona St @ Florida St.

yeah your right Ksu was the only team to have the balls to play some one out of conference.

I was comparing the level of balls between ku & KSU.  Try to keep up.  :nono:

Thanks for further proving my point... :woohoo:...OU was the only one to win against a crapty Miami team thus reiterating the overall stinkiness of the Big 12.

None of those teams are even close to being as good as Auburn, btw.

Hey remember when BMW started that thread asking if KSU had ever been in the top 10 BCS rankings.  God that was hilarious.

All this DoD talk is great.  Ksu had a great 10 years and even won a Big 12 championship. YES!  This has to be an all time sports record.  I glad ku hasn't made a CoD basketball  video.  I'm suprised that no other team in football has ever had 10 years of winning football capped by a conference championship with out a BCS win.




We won 109 games over an 11 year span.

Seriously. What is ku's greatest win total over an 11 year span?

KSU can make a DOD for basketball. We've had one. We also realize just how small and insignificant basketball is compared to football.
