2002:  2-6; wins over Oklahoma St., Texas
2003:  2-10; wins over Texas Tech, Colorado
2004:  1-5; win over Texas
2005:  0-7; (this is when he should have been fired)
2006:  2-3; wins over Kansas an Texas A&M
2007:  2-5; wins over Texas and Texas Tech

Just an FYI

What were we this year?

Just goes to show how irrelevant that stat is.

[WILDCAT NATION]

The more things change, the more they stay the same it seems...

[catzacker]

So basically, anytime OU, TT, or OSU have a bad year, expect 4 bids?

[michigancat]

I think if we get more than two top 50 home games, we win more than two overall.

Wooldridge had zero top 50 road wins.

[Dan Rydell]

I think if we get more than two top 50 home games, we win more than two overall.

Wooldridge had zero top 50 road wins.

What about @ ku last year?

[coitus]

I think if we get more than two top 50 home games, we win more than two overall.

Wooldridge had zero top 50 road wins.

huggins had zero top 50 home wins.

maybe we need to never wear the black unis when playing a top 50 team.

[kougar24]

I guess we should have forced A&M and OSU to come to Manhattan this year, for the good of the conference.

Oh, and did USC fall out of the top 50?

Also, doesn't "The Committee" view road wins as much more favorable than home wins?

That stat is misleading due to the location of the games.

[ksu_FAN]

I think if we get more than two top 50 home games, we win more than two overall.

Wooldridge had zero top 50 road wins.

And only 1 in the OOC, his first year.  

We should have at least 3 or 4 games next year vs potential Top 50 RPI teams in the OOC.  If we could split those it would be a great OOC slate.

The stat is beyond retarded. Simply looking at it you'd think we haven't improved vs the last 6 years.

[WILDCAT NATION]

We were apparently ever so slightly better this year.

There's no excuse for this team not making the tourney.

[fatty fat fat]

I'm trying to get rusty to defend the stat fwiw.

Maybe huggins is manginoing us.

It's very important to the committee.
