Remaining Road Games (THE ASS POUNDERY??? HOPE NOT!) Thread

winning one out of those three should be the expectation and anything better is surpassing. also, i think it's absolutely possible that a 9-2 big12 champion k-state makes it to the playoff.

9-3 or 10-2?

man. very embarrassing for me here. basically i think we could lose one more and still (maybe/possibly) get in. possible. i mean if we are the second best conference (we are) and we only have two losses because of auburn ooc then i could see a committee wanting to be politically correct or whatever and put us in. we'd need other people to end up w/ two losses too. obviously.

Never mind my previous post!

This is like the hardest schedule in the history of the conference (not factoring the quality of the conference, but I think it's actually pretty decent).

I think it really might be the hardest overall schedule we have had.  There are no clearly unbeatable teams on there, like a couple of the old NU and OU teams, but very good every week.

Someone should really do the research on this (not you or I though, obviously).

I bet we see Florida State, a 1 loss SEC team, a 1 loss Pac 12 (Oregon), and a 1 loss Big 10 team before a 2 loss Big 12 team, regardless of who the Big 12 team is.  Then you have to remember that the SEC will probably have another 1 loss team, and Notre Dame may be sitting there with only one loss as well.

I think we (the big 12) need help before we have a 2 loss team jump any 1 loss teams from the other big conferences.

absolutely. but i don't think it's a guarantee that all the above happens (fsu not losing, every other conf with only 1 loss).

So, we really did not get lucky with this road schedule this year.  Before the season started we all knew this would be tough with Iowa State (sure, we ALWAYS win but close tho), OU (no back to back wins at OU since TLBL's Dad), and Baylor (fancy new house and those passings and passings...).

But, holy poop TCU looks really scary and freaking WVU is dangerous and all moonshiney at home (they made it a night game to double eff us).

We could play really, really well and still lose 2 road games this year, and we have freaking OU already in the bag. 

Guys, this is hard.

Dear Petey,

We're not going to lose to these Big East dorks!  What is wrong with you, snap out of it!

Sincerely,
LE

Good resume' builders 

If we win out we're in the playoffs. Period.

Unless 4 of Oregon, Notre Dame, Michigan State, Florida State, Mississippis, or Alabamas win out. You're living a fantasy if you think 2 SEC teams aren't rubber stamped for this game.  We could win our next 6 games by a combined 300-0 and all they'd talk about is how good Notre Dame's defense looked in their 13-12 victory over Air Force.

If anyone asks you say we have the hardest schedule that's ever been played. Like, that's the card we should play. We have the hardest schedule in the history of football but we are looking forward to the challenge, 16 goals, sawing wood, etc.

And then if we win a couple hey look at that we had the hardest schedule in the history of football and wouldn't you know it the cats still pulled out a couple and had a great season, hand slaps all around.
