Seriously?  A top 25 BCS team playing a 5-1 team from the Big 12 South?


5-2

Everyone keeps predicting a loss, I'm curious how many of those folks were in the "we WILL lose to ku" camp about this time last week
This is a MUCH better team than KU.

So is every other team we have played this year. Well, I guess MO State is only slightly better.

KU vs. aTm at 6 p.m. FSN. Must see TV there.

aTm is a top 4 B12 TV market and KU >/= K-State.

Don't worry. You will see it on the bottom line of every televised college football game this week.

Are there any 5-1 BCS teams that are not ranked?

2 of the bottom 4 tv markets in the B12

And herein lies the problem with the existent B12 television/revenue arrangement.  Weren't Ath. Dept's. told that if quality football programs were fielded and played in appealing/consequential games they would be rewarded with television exposure and the added financial benefit of said exposure?  

As a KSU fan I know my place and I know who we are, but KU v A&M is ridiculously terrible football television whereas KSU v Baylor has some implications.  But, has KSU v. Baylor ever been televised?  

Television is always based on ratings and never based on "feel good stories."  KU vs. ATM might be a horrible game, but more tv sets will be watching than a KSU vs. BU game.  It's a business, and games will always be aired based on viewers.  Just something that we, as KSU fans, have to live with.

I'm surprised FCS didn't pick up this game.  They've had a game every week this year, but none this week.

This isn't an issue for non-national broadcasts, the advertising dollars are already set, and the ratings for all regional broadcasts are nearly identical, even across conference lines in the same broadcast window.
