blair kirkoff really hates us this year

[pissclams]

blair jerkoff is a freakin' mongloid

[fatty fat fat]

ku ahead of Texas A&M. Wow.

[IceHawkE]

Apparently the expectations of ku are higher than those of KSU - that in itself is refreshing and telling.   It's not unreasonable logic and Blair Kerchoff is no aplogist for ku.

ku football sucks.  KSU football sucks worse.  This is neither news nor a good thing.

I still have yet to hear a good reason as to why ku should be better than K-State this year, team-wise (i.e., schedule isn't a valid reason).

Kougar...

How about the ku-KSU game is a home game for ku? That could be all the serarates them this year in the standings. ku wins this one at home.

[bigdeal]

Someone give me the logic why ku will be better. 

1. Redshirt Frosh QB
2. D carried them last year and lost all the playmakers
3. No offense last year
4. Several pre-season injuries..he will play lots of freshmen per Mangie himself
5. Possible sanctions looming

The only positive is a weaker schedule.

And really, the schedule only gives them a 1 game advantage over us... outside of Texas, our Conf. schedule is just as easy, if not easier considering our home field advantages.
