Does beating Kansas hurt Arkansas image?
« on: January 07, 2012, 02:17:14 AM »
I mean...to play such a crap school. A State school at that. What is that? Like one step up from a community college flag football team? I mean. Seriously. There probably was a high school team who could've put up a better fight. Im just worried that when the next season rolls around people are going to still smell the desperation and failure that rubbed off of your guys onto our uniforms.

 :facepalm:

Im just...I dont want people to think we're a weak school when we have to play crap teams like Kan'tsas state. And it has me worried.

I don't mean to break rank, but can't we be better winners? Threads like these degrading the competition also degrades the win. We should win with honor, not hubris.

Oh I'm sorry, I missed the part where I was supposed to give a crap about Kan'tsas State fans feelings?

one thing i no is when someone is tryin to stir a big pot of crap.  and your a doin it.  

LISTEN!  This is good for everyone that Arkansas cut Kansas States balls off on national TV.  Forget about all the preseason rankings and recruits that were watching that we'll sign now. No more talk of relentless SEC dominance or the grudge screwin that the other less fortuneate conferences have taken and been left in the wake of the angry giant conference.  

Let's focus on KSU.  

There were several good recruits that WILL be swayed to sign with other schools (Okla, OSU Texas and Arkansas and maybe even Kansas) becasue Kansas State wilted AGAIN on the biggest stage.  Under the brightest lights....couldn't close the deal.  If those recruits had not seen player after player put out of the game by SEC power how would they know that KSU is not the place for them.  What would have happened if KSU had won and landed 3 or 4 - 4 and 5 star athletes.  Think how that would have upset the order in the conference!  They would have started challengin OSU and OK and Texas for dominance....and games agin lowly Kansas (the Flagship for Basketball and Football normally) would have quickly gotten lopsided as the talent level would be so out of whack!  KSU would have beaten them agin and agin.  Now the games will be more EVEN and COMPETITIVE!  A better rivalry with each team winning some and neither climbing too high.  

I really think both teams won tonight.

No...not feelings...logically if you degrade your competition after the win, then you degrade the quality of the win itself. It was a good game. There were some times where I was  :ohno:. I would much rather say we beat a good school rather than a crap one.

Really you can't degrade a win against Kan'tsas State much more than actually winning against them.

Just sayin'.

Thanks for the help. I never saw that thread before...
I should be playing Mass Effect 2 while being happy about a bowl win right now, but no...I have to come here to provide positive representation.

My gamer son prefers the latest Modern Warfare first person shooter type games--but at 14 the storytelling and such is not nearly as important as blowing crap up!

lol! That is true about age ~14. I'm 24 and thankfully have a job that is 90% internet/game/downtime. So I like the storytelling angles.
