Mangino's coaching last season was subpar. Combine that with Reesing's mid season slump, and it's easy to undrstand why ku lost so many games. That team should have been better than 5-7.
Besides the last drive against MU, was Mangino really coaching that bad? The crapty defense you had didn't help, but your crapty season should be blamed on Reesing the most.
Using your logic, if KSU had better QB play during the non-con schedule, we would have won a couple more games. We should have been better than 6-6.
