Will old man snyder ever win another bowl game?

[star seed 7]

Jesus that is a humiliating list.  Just terrible. Un-American, even.

you would think a coach or two would have gotten fired because of that ridiculousness.

[Emo EMAW]

Their Big 10 audition (getting ass rammed by Nebraska) went as planned.   

[DQ12]

I don't know.  I doubt it, really.  For whatever reason, ever since '02, Snydes just has been a bad bowl coach.  I don't know whether it's easier for teams to prepare for our offenses now or Snyder outthinks himself, but we always underperform in bowl games.  A lot of people here say it doesn't bother them, but it does bother me.

Bowl games, especially awesome bowl games (cotton, fiesta, etc) are a blast to go to, but they're not as fun when you don't win.  Fun, but not as fun.  I love Snyder to death, but he needs to figure out a way to win bowl games, or those huge crowds that travel over a thousand miles each year are going to start to dwindle.

Looks like we've found the one honest, non-butthurt, good person on goEMAW.  No surprise that he goes to Illinois now.  Once you escape from the propaganda in Butthurtville, you start to see life differently.

I should add an addendum here, that I'd rather lose any better bowl game than win any lesser bowl game.  I.E., I'd rather lose the fiesta than win the cotton, I'd rather lose the cotton than win the alamo, etc. etc.

Which makes the whole "bowl record" talking point kind of meaningless, i think.

[Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!)]

Snyds problem right now, IMHO, is that his teams do so well they end up playing in really good bowl games against really challenging opponents, thus reducing the likelihood of victory to a near crap shoot.  He should tank a game or two so we can get one of those sweetheart acc or big ten matchups, where victory is certain..  Unfortunately, even then, Cat fans are so widespread, abundant and transient, and are such a prominent household name and national draw that we'd probably get stuck in an elite bowl game anyways.

Quite the conundrum, but a great one to be in.  Will take.

[pissclams]

ku has a really good shot at setting the most losses in the history of college football ever record this season, good luck fellas.

[Shacks]

The absurdly long layoff between the end of the season and the start of bowl season hurts teams that run unconventional offenses and benefits teams with elite defenses.  Preparing for KSU and our offense over one week is a lot different than preparing for KSU and our offense over one month.  But that's not an excuse for the Fiesta Bowl - Oregon also runs an unusual offense, and they're equally disadvantaged by the long layoff.  Our defense did pretty good against their offense largely because we had a month to study it.  They just had more than enough speed on defense to shut us down, and the long practice time guaranteed their coaches had enough time to show them every single look and wrinkle in our offense so they were disciplined and prepared for anything we threw at them.  Didn't help that Klein had spaghetti brains or that for some stupid rough ridin' reason Sean decided to kick off to DeAnthony Thomas.

The off time definitely hurt us against Pig Aggie, though.  Their offense wasn't anything special to prepare for but our offense was the first of its kind that Pig Aggie had seen all season, so the long practice time was beneficial for them and detrimental for us.

[Cartierfor3]

New idea: We use our next 4 bowl games as "audition games" for folks who have their eyes on being the next HC of the KSU Football team. Let Bill take a load off and let these young bucks show us if they're up for the challenge
