TITLETOWN - A Decade Long Celebration Of The Greatest Achievement In College Athletics History => Kansas State Football => Topic started by: Dugout DickStone on November 16, 2012, 07:57:38 AM

Think through it, Jayhawk fans. First, a National Championship in football is a far bigger deal than basketball. Sorry, we love our hoops and there is no one prouder of our multiple titles. But college football is a much, much, bigger sport everywhere in this country than college basketball. So plenty of bragging rights there.

I wonder who's having more nervous shits, KU or K-State fans?
-
man, danny clinkscale, tsc much? (no)

Seriously. "I'd love to get a free trip to Miami in January, but gawd just don't let them WIN!"
-
It is killing them to admit that even making it to the NC game is worth all of their basketball titles, Helms included.
-
To the phog...
:moreira:
-
i got a friend who is KU/ND fan (started out at KU and xferred to ND). he's not much of a TSC'r so this season has been tough on him.

They cant see the forest for all the trees, man...

It is ridiculously difficult to win a football title.

It is ridiculously difficult to win a football title.
I think it is more because absolutely no one outside of Duke and Kentucky GAF about basketball titles...and either one of those fanbases would trade being a contender in football for basketball success. Kentucky especially
-
The argument could be made that for some schools it is easier to win a BB NC than it is to win a big 12 conference game
-
12,000 people in Octagon of Doom.
50,000 people in BSFS
5 men on the court
11 men on the field
It's simple math guys.
-
Danny is BITB at being a BITB's counterpart
-
It looks like he is trying to play both fan bases but fails on both counts.
"I love everything about Kansas State I really do, I don't have a bad thing to say about the bunch. But success at K State means hard times at UK and we can't have that, but I still love Kstate."
Typical media sock. TSC or don't, whatever...just make up your mind. Don't be a wet blanket that cheers for us to be successful enough to get to the game but not successful enough to win it.
-
Didnt Clinksdale get degrees from both KSU & KU? :dunno:
-
How many NCAA basketball titles would equal one BCS football title? I think it would be in the 5-10 range for the first one and then about 3 for each subsequent title.
-
I don't know anything about this Clinkscale guy. :dunno:

-
If conference realignment taught me anything it's the college sports = 95% football, 4% basketball, 1% all others combined
-
I'd argue that any BCS game is exponentially harder to get to than a BBNC. I mean Butler did it twice in a row for gods sake.

they're both super easy you respects. KU has done both

I'd like to see phog's reaction to this, but got banned.....apparently because they lost a bball game. I hadn't posted there for a couple days.

Dang that guy handwriting worst then mine and i have a reason for mine being bad because of my cerebral palsy. His handwriting looked like a drunk midget wrote it.

I just told a midget I know about Brad in general and that insult in particular and he laughed so rough ridin' hard he stopped breathing for 84 seconds. He almost rough ridin' died it was so funny to him.

It was mostly all the ways in which he is clearly far superior to Brad that got him. Basically in every respect. He thought is was adorbs on Brad's part.

football is much more difficult than bball b/c you've got to go undefeated (sans SEC schools).
Cindarellas don't make it to Championship game in football. Final 4 is full is cindarellas.
-
It is killing them to admit that even making it to the NC game is worth all of their basketball titles, Helms included.
Not even close. KU has a program built on long-term success and long-term stability. We recruit at an elite level and have one of the best coaches in the game. If K-State wins the BCS title this year, you'll just be a flash in the pan like Auburn was back in 2010.

Disagree. Basketball is much more difficult because you have to win six games in a row in a single elimination format, and you have to do it all on the biggest stage in sports.

you're wrong

Surely you don't believe this, right? All you have to do is be one of the top 68 teams in the country and get hot at the right time of year and you can play for a NCAA championship. You can literally have 10-12 losses and win a national title in basketball.

Michigan with the Fab 5 and Kentucky under Calipari have proven you can just wing it. Hell there are more examples on how easy and non elite BBall titles are but I don't have the time right now.

In Football, you have to win 12 games in a row in a single elimination format (sans SEC schools), and you have to do it all on THE biggest stage in sports. And when I say biggest stage in sports, I mean highest TV viewership.
This year is a pretty perfect example. Bama is the best team in America and because of a poor 1st quarter against A&M in week 10, their path to the MNC is now beyond their control.

Don't even have to do that really. Win 4 games in confy tourney + 6 games in dance = 10-28 season and the 'ship

You're proving Danny's point. FOOTBALL, every Saturday in the fall, is the biggest stage in sports, particularly for teams that are pretty good at it. March Madness is just a distraction until next football season. And like most squaks, you don't quite get that.

LSU won a national title with 2 losses. This myth that you have to go undefeated is cute, but it's simply not true.

Except that has never happened.
In football, all you have to do is go undefeated in a BCS conference, and you've got a seat in the national title game. Your schedule could only include 2-3 top 25 teams, and if you win those games, you're in.
In basketball, not only do you have to win your conference or finish high in the standings to earn a top seed, you have to win six straight games against teams that present varying challenges. By the time you reach the Elite Eight, you're playing teams that are in the top 10-15. It's exponentially more difficult. Not even close really.

Wait, would that be like a team with a 21-11 record? Playing for a national championship? Sounds like you don't even have to be very good to win one.

By the time you reach the Elite Eight, you're playing teams that are in the top 10-15.
:dubious:
-
And again, midmajor upsets are a dime a dozen in NCAA tournament (see KU). Not so in football. Teams like Butler and VCU play are routinely in the Final 4 - Butler being in back-to-back championships).
In football, there are no Cindarellas. You've got to be good and you've got to be good 13 weeks in-a-row.

This. You can lose 1/3 or your games and still get a chance. In college football if you lose 1/12 you're basically out

TCU, Boise State, Cincinnati, etc, etc. College football has cinderellas, they just don't have a system that allows cinderellas to compete for a national title. It's this exclusivity that makes it even easier to win a title in football. K-State doesn't have to play Texas A&M or Alabama to win a national title in football. All you have to do is win a conference game at Oklahoma, and you're in. It's a joke.

Multiple teams outside of the SEC have won national titles without going undefeated.

The last time KU won at Oklahoma and also beat Kansas State in the same year was 1975. The Jayhawks finished 7-5 that year.
So easy it's a joke.

This is the point. Because there is no playoff, cindarellas like TCU, Boise, Cincinatti, Louisiville, aren't allowed in. It's not like the NCAAs, where teams like Bucknell, St. Mary's, Bradley and the likes routinely win and advance.

Yeah, I'm serious. What other games have had national implications outside of Oklahoma? K-State's non-con schedule sucked. The Big 12 is looking more and more mediocre as the season goes along. I just don't see how you can argue that going undefeated in this year's Big 12 is really that much of a challenge.

That winless team has almost beaten Texas, Oklahoma State, and Texas Tech. Three teams that are supposed to be "challenging."

Guys, I'm pretty sure basketball is harder. They play more games and have to score more points to win. It's basic math.

So much fun. :billdance:

Just like old times here.

Because it's harder.

Would you rather win the NCAA basketball Tournament or the College World Series?
Basketball is higher profile (slightly), but the CWS would be harder. I can't decide.

Beems, why did the phog get all butthurt and ban all the K-State posters just cause you guys lost a basketball game? I'll listen off the air, TIA.

The last time KU won at Oklahoma and also beat Kansas State in the same year was 1975. The Jayhawks finished 7-5 that year.
So easy it's a joke.
Your whole argument is based on the toughness of winning at Oklahoma. Sure, it's tough. It's also tough to win at Allen Fieldhouse, but if a team does it, they still have to play in an NCAA tournament where they will have to win six straight games. Imagine if K-State had to play Oklahoma again in a Big 12 title game, and then they had to beat Louisiana Tech, Texas A&M, and Oregon to win a national title. That's how it is in college hoops.

football is much more difficult than bball b/c you've got to go undefeated (sans SEC schools).
Cindarellas don't make it to Championship game in football. Final 4 is full is cindarellas.
Disagree. Basketball is much more difficult because you have to win six games in a row in a single elimination format, and you have to do it all on the biggest stage in sports.
oscar Weber did it.
No he didn't.
Yeah, he did.
Again, no he didn't. He didn't make it to the championship game in football, either.
Because it's harder.
Actually it's because he coaches basketball.
-
Would you rather win the NCAA basketball Tournament or the College World Series?
Basketball is higher profile (slightly), but the CWS would be harder. I can't decide.
How is the CWS series harder? Do you not understand the statistical difference in winning a six game, single elimination tournament vs. a series that's best out of five?
-
Multiple teams outside of the SEC have won national titles without going undefeated.
Since the BCS was created, this is false. Every team outside the SEC to win a MNC since '97 has been undefeated. Only non-undefeated champions are LSU ('03, '07), Florida ('06, '08), Bama ('11).
-

My God you are amusing. Have you ever heard of Roy Williams?
Or did you just completely erase all of the bad memories?
-
You have not responded to me destroying your "Big 12 is a mediocre conference" talking point.
But that's ok. True or False: if K-State lost 1 of its previous 10 games, or loses 1 of its next 2 games, it will still play in the national championship game.

Seems like you're making the argument that it's harder to win the SEC than it is to win a BCS title. I would agree with that.

This year is a pretty perfect example. Bama is the best team in America and because of a poor 1st quarter against A&M in week 10, their path to the MNC is now beyond their control.
LSU won a national title with 2 losses. This myth that you have to go undefeated is cute, but it's simply not true.

The Big 12 is good on paper. I'll give you that. I'm not sure how anyone could argue that it's better than the SEC, though. The Big 12 has less bad teams than the SEC, but that's mainly because it's a smaller conference now. K-State is by far and away the best team in the Big 12, with Oklahoma a distant second. Outside of that, I just don't see much to write home about. The SEC has BCS #4 through #9.

Texas A&M may as well be in a different conference than South Carolina because they will never play each other, and therefore should not be used to help each other's SOS argument or perception.

Would you rather win the NCAA basketball Tournament or the College World Series?
Basketball is higher profile (slightly), but the CWS would be harder. I can't decide.
How is the CWS series harder? Do you not understand the statistical difference in winning a six game, single elimination tournament vs. a series that's best out of five?
Best out of five? You have no idea how the CWS works.
The College World Series or CWS is an annual baseball tournament held in Omaha, Nebraska that is the culmination of the NCAA Division I Baseball Championship, which determines the NCAA Division I college baseball champion. The eight teams are split into two, four-team, double-elimination brackets, with the winner of each bracket playing in the best-of-three championship series. The tournament takes place in June of each year.
Welp, looks like I was wrong. It's best out of three. And seriously, you're going to try to compare the CWS to the NCAA tournament? That's pretty desperate, even for the most butthurt of butthurts.

Texas A&M may as well be in a different conference than South Carolina because they will never play each other, and therefore should not be used to help each other's SOS argument or perception.
The SEC is set up to maximize the number of 1 loss teams in the conference.
They each play 4 Western Carolina type teams so even a winless conference team like Tennessee doesn't look like a bad opponent when they get beaten.
Then the top 6 teams only play 2 or 3 of the other top teams. So if you go 1-1 or 2-1 in these three games and you sweep through the UK, Vandys, Ole Miss of the worlds you end up with 5 or 6 teams in the toughest conference in the world all sitting at 11-1 or at worst 10-2. This enough to put any BCS team in the top 10.
In the big 12 it is mathmatically impossible to end up with more than 3 1-loss teams. The round robin automatically makes the conference look worse no matter how good it is. This is why K-State was in the top 25 but picked 6th in the big 12 before the season. 5 road games in this confernece and having to play every team guarantees the team that emerges has nothing to be ashamed of.
By the way, welcome back beems! :thumbs:

This thread with oregonsmack is as entertaining as his idea that ku actually does have as much talent as K-State, but it is somehow underappreciated or undercoached or something like that. Maybe if ku got more comfortable pants, they would win more games?

College football is so much harder, the teams don't always control their destiny, less margin for error,, the previous seasons success matters, winning a football championship can be a two year process

Alabama
Auburn
Oregon
4 more teams have made the NCAA basketball championship game than the BCS title, and look at those lists. Wouldn't you think its more difficult to 'break through' into the elite in football? Only Oregon and Virginia Tech can be considered outliers in terms of traditional football powers, while there are MANY outliers who have played for a basketball championship (Butler, Utah, Georgia Tech, Illinois etc.) in the BCS era.

I was going to come up with something to trash KU basketball, but when I pulled up their record from last year I saw that they played in the national championship game.
Does anybody remember that? I remembered that dude with the unibrow from Kentucky won, but I had completely forgot it was against Kansas.
Anyway, this is obviously belated, but...Way to go Jayhawks! Well done! TSC!

3 undefeated seasons in Big XII history. OU, UT, and NU. OU and UT won the MNC. Think NU did too.
Cake walk.
How many undefeated seasons were round robin?

Would you rather win the NCAA basketball Tournament or the College World Series?
Basketball is higher profile (slightly), but the CWS would be harder. I can't decide.
How is the CWS series harder? Do you not understand the statistical difference in winning a six game, single elimination tournament vs. a series that's best out of five?
Best out of five? You have no idea how the CWS works.
The College World Series or CWS is an annual baseball tournament held in Omaha, Nebraska that is the culmination of the NCAA Division I Baseball Championship, which determines the NCAA Division I college baseball champion. The eight teams are split into two, four-team, double-elimination brackets, with the winner of each bracket playing in the best-of-three championship series. The tournament takes place in June of each year.
Welp, looks like I was wrong. It's best out of three. And seriously, you're going to try to compare the CWS to the NCAA tournament? That's pretty desperate, even for the most butthurt of butthurts.
This is all before the teams play their way through Regionals and Super Regionals that starts out with a total field of guess what.... 64 teams playing their way to eight via single elimination. So, truth be told, it's actually HARDER to win a CWS than a hoops title because an upset in the elite eight can be battled back from by the better team.

Oh, yeah... btw, the $EC is not really as good as ESPN would have you believe and the results on the field prove as much.

Funny story about Clinkscale. I guess he does some sort of radio show Saturday morning on 810. I'm on the road this morning and happen to tune in at 9:00. His first guest is Stan Weber, calling from Waco.
Stan gets on the phone and he's got a bad connection. Bunch of static. So Stan says, "Danny, let me call you right back." After Stan hangs up, Danny starts talking a little about Oregon and Notre Dame to fill some time, but he's very uncomfortable being off-page. He keeps pausing like he's trying to think of something to say. Goes on and off for about a minute and then there's this big long pause....
..and real quite in the background, you hear Clinkscale shout "GOD DAMMIT STAN, CALL ME BACK!" :lol: The dude cut his mike but there must have been another live mike in the studio.
Anyway, Stan gets back on and you can tell Danny is pissed. Stan asks "does that sound better?" Danny just responds "Sounds fine, Stan." He was pissed.
-
Ku fans frantic now. They know which is a bigger deal. :bill:
-
Danny leaving 810. I've got to admit, I'll miss him.
-
Makes you wonder if they kinda pulled his arm to do so. The way that segment went, he didn't sound totally confident that he was ready to leave.

Yeah, it was a little strange. He doesn't really have a plan on what to do next and he's not retiring.
-
"Mutual factors involved". Yeah, they can't afford him FT right now. I'm sure his salary is a bit bloated for being there for 18 years in this industry and with the way radio is going.
-
i hate to say it but 810 is falling apart.
-
he’s not good at his chosen profession
if you’re a teacher and your kids all fail the iowa skills tests, you need to find something new
danny seems nice enough but if I wanna take a nap, i’ll stick with ambien

810 is complete crap and pretty much always has been

This is a sad day.

Radio in general is "falling apart", but 810 is still the #1 Sports Station in town by far. https://ratings.radio-online.com/cgi-bin/rol.exe/arb041

810/610 aren’t sports channels, they’re entertainment channels for guys who like sports

mike & mike & danny

Meh. It is what it is. If you want the professionals, 1660 and 1510 are enjoyable for National Sports Radio. I understand why some wouldn't like the local guys tho.
-
I still can't believe Jim Rome still has a show in today's radio world. I have no idea wtf the guy is trying to say on the airwaves with his "The Jungle" BS.
-
hey fellas how about that jim cattey from smoke and fire! that man knows sports.
time to fire up some burgers
the depth that the local guys go into sports: “the royals lost last night. ya our relief pitchers suck”
-
I know you hate Soren too, but I really enjoy his insight. He's the best KC has.

first Dick Hawk, now this, I'm sick

How complicated do you think sports are? They are the most easiest to understand thing in the world probably.
-
I get sad all over again every time I see this thread. Danny was a great man. :frown:
-
what was so great about him?
-
His vitality will be missed.
-
what's one memorable thing he's ever done other than his "thorough hand job" drop that the border patrol plays all the time?
-
Beat cancer. Geez M^2.
JK. :D I mean, he did, but i'm with ya. He's always been pretty crotchety on air.
-
He plays the eeyore very well

I haven't listed at all to sports talk radio in about 1.5 years, and the 1.5 before that I maybe listed 20 minutes total. I don't miss it a bit. I really just forget it exists.

If you guys love Danny so much why don’t you pay him to cover cats sports for this blog site

KK's ball washer, basically. Back then, when I first listened to 610, he always had to agree with KK a lot, and KK's takes was a flaming dumpster fire. I haven't listened to 610 anymore, unless there's a ball game on the radio.

Still is a flaming dumpster fire. Now there's just no echo chamber for KK (810). Petro is about the only thing tolerable.

Well if you don't like Steven St. John the best you're probably a stupid dumb idiot.
-
true
-
Nate, Steven, and the third wheel guy are all garbage. I honestly don't know how they got to actually be on the air, but can only imagine they'll be selling vacuums door to door if they get Danny'd.

It's Jake Gutierrez and I think he'll be fine, since he helps CBS NFL broadcasts on the side. Nate has worked with the Royals, KU, and now Sporting and anyone who dislikes Steven is probably a monster themselves.
-
The border patrol is great and all those guys are quality.

anti-810 takes are my favorite.

Jake use to be married to one of Mrs. wacky's good friends. They all went to high school together. Came to our reception. Quality dude.

True. People that "never listen" know a lot of information about every guy at the station. Odd.
-
I just want you guys to know that if what happened to Danny happened to any of you, I would never go around saying that you sucked at your job and shitting all over your memory.
Thank you, Danny, for everything you did for all of us and for just being you.
-
Sports talk hosts are the easiest ppl to crap on because sports guy thinks he could do it better and they don't think they know what they're talking about. Unless you're Bob Fescoe of course and then it's actually true.
-

He might be a quality dude, but not quality on-air dude.
-
That's why he's the producer and has a minimal role.

KK just said KU reacted to the #Metoo movement in the cheerleading case with "get over it"
Our next AD better get us out of our contract with 810, this is horse crap this man is making money off of us and can sling the crap he does with Jack and have zero consequences.
