FFF aside, i get worried when this place is optimistic.  its not what we do.

this place is now equal parts gpc, kstatefans, and ksufans.  it's disgusting and embarrassing.

Which parts of each and would like ideas on how to fix. Ban?

Don't really know about "this place," but it's sort of my tradition to get really optimistic about things, cirlce games on the schedule as wins (like @ Baylor or home vs Okie St) and then be supremely disappointed when we lose.  Also, both were somewhat close losses so then you spend the rest of the season pissed off about what could have been had the ball bounced a different way.

Meh.  As some one who was at the baylor game, we were completely overmatched.  Their offense was just running train on our D, especially in the second half.  HOWEVER, me and the fellas went on the field and met bish, aaron and quincy as the methodists stormed the field.

As the season gets closer, I get more optimistic.  Usually some story will come out about why a part of our team that should be shitty, will suddenly be good.  That story sells me every time.

I think we'll see a similar offense that puts up some good numbers (but doesn't look as awkward doing it) and a defense that might (MIGHT) be slightly improved but will ultimately still be a raging dumpster fire. The schedule is tougher, but any of these are winnable: EKU, Kent St, Baylor, MU (no Gabbert), @Tech, @KU, ISU. OSU and A&M are tossups. Would be nice to own Texas again, but Mack finally got rid of his crap assistants so I'm not holding my breath. Beating OU would be amazing, but not likely. 6-6 would be about what I'd expect, 9-3 being the ceiling, 4-8 being the floor.

I'm cautiously optimistic that we can pull out 7-5 or 8-4 since Brown will help out the LB's.

If we don't go 8-4 Snyder should be fired.

A new starting QB and replacement of the three best OL is not usually grounds for optimism.  Even if the new QB eventually turns out to be good, it's hardly ever the first year, especially when they're not getting good protection.

Oh man, really need a follow-up here.  REALLY NEED A FOLLOW UP!

I remember I was listening on the radio.  We were working their D, too.  One of those "whoever had the ball last" kind of games.  But yeah, our D sucked.

Rumblings that Miami is having to move safeties and corners around because of depth issues in the secondary. Also in spring drills Jacory Harris was bumped to second string QB behind a guy that has basically no game experience at all. Add to that a bunch of Miami players who just got beat up by Ohio St. the week before and are still having to get the kinks out of a new system. Maybe even an angered up Arthur Brown gets thrown into the recipe (long shot, but would be redic if somehow he came out and destroyed junk). Delusion/optimism
