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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
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.
You serious Clark?? Why the hell have we been playing games all season then!?! :dunno:
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.
Going winless in a mediocre conference is just as challenging then
That winless team has almost beaten Texas, Oklahoma State, and Texas Tech. Three teams that are supposed to be "challenging."

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.

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.

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).

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.

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.
LSU won a national title with 2 losses. This myth that you have to go undefeated is cute, but it's simply not true.
Holy crap you are pants on head Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!).

The SEC has seven great teams and seven unbelievably awful teams. The Big12 has 1 great team, 1 unbelievably awful team, and 8 good teams. The average favors the Big12 slightly. The problem with saying the SEC is ahead is that all those seven great teams do not play each other. 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.

Best out of five? You have no idea how the CWS works.
Quote
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.

Outside of that, I just don't see much to write home about. The SEC has BCS #4 through #9.
The SEC has seven great teams and seven unbelievably awful teams. The Big12 has 1 great team, 1 unbelievably awful team, and 8 good teams. The average favors the Big12 slightly. The problem with saying the SEC is ahead is that all those seven great teams do not play each other. 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:

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.

Maybe I don't "get" beems. Doesn't he want us to engage him? He makes ridiculous statements and we crank ridiculous up a notch. Isn't that the game?
I don't think it's our fault. Times are tough for KU fans. Really tough. Feeling bad for him.

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.QuoteThe 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.
VLCWSIQ Beems...
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.

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.

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

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.
