    The very best.
gmafb. what a joke that system is. It treats a win over a #200 team like it's a much bigger deal if you had beaten a #300 team.  :rolleyes:

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.

Yeah, and they lost last night to 14-14 Wichita Fracking St.
Makes me believe now with Texa$$ beating OU last night, the media
will  again lick lick their dck, and even if we finish a clear 4th,
Expect to see Tx get picked before KSU.

We need to beat Mizzou to make it a non-issue. :curse:

So we're 10 spots behind the nubs, 20 spots behind Baylor, and 40 spots behind A&M.   We have road wins over A&M and TX (2 spots in front of A&M) and a home win over #15 (MU).  Before the ku game I figured we needed to get to 24 wins to get in, including the conference season and Big 12 tourney.  I still think that might do it because of the low number of Mid-Majors that will be players, but wins over MU and probably OSU are important.  MU would boost RPI and OSU will likely get in ahead of us if we lose to them (of course, as has been shown in the past even beating them head up at the end of the season might not matter).  Frank just didn't count on Oregon being pathetic or Iowa being bad....and us losing to both in addition to Kentucky.

RPI is a joke of a system. People just throw the RPI out there and all of a sudden it makes or breaks a team's tournament chances. Not only is it flawed, but it is also the only thing alot of voters look at when they pick teams for the NCAA's.

Our resume is looking like it did 2 years ago, except even then we had some decent non-con wins (we won that tournament in vegas)

We're &@#%ed
