i'd put osu above atm, but otherwise that looks about right.

Ubben!

Hope the Cats can finish a few spots higher than predicted.

It looks about right, but I'm with hatter, I think MU losses 5 games or so.

I think we could finish as high as 6th. 5th is possible if all the planets and stars and moons align.

Panjandrum · « **Reply #6 on:** July 20, 2011, 03:00:34 PM »

I think there's a vacuum there in the 4-7 range that could be filled by every team listed (below #3) with the exception of Kansas. After OU/OSU/A&M, everyone else is really hard to predict.

Missouri at 4 is the biggest stretch on that list. They'll end up in the bottom half this year.

AbeFroman · « **Reply #7 on:** July 20, 2011, 03:20:29 PM »

I'm optimistic we can finish 5th or 6th. I'd like to think we can get the same record as Missouri and win the tie breaker

1. OU
2. OSU
3. A&M
4. Texas
5.

6. Mizzou
7. Baylor
8. Tech
9. Iowa St
10.

at least 6th or we won't make a bowl...

could be great year if we do well vs. A&M and Baylor at home and spank KU again..

Missouri is going to beat us by at least 24 pts.

Waters calmed!

At least there's no out-of-work coach with a recent proven track record of winning big (especially over our current coach) that's just sitting out there selling books that we're missing out on by continuing to indulge some retiree's messiah complex.

Do you fellas and gals think Patterson will come to K-State even if we're in the Big East with them?

If he didn't slam the door shut on KSU because of the Fitz fuckup, he did once they got AQ status.

That ship sailed. We all need to get on the Mike Leach train.

Old balls, huh! What are you about 25 yo or something? Snyder would accomplish more in a month than you would in your lifetime. Do you think any other coach would have gotten Brod Smith, Chris Harper and the Brown brothers back to Kansas? The answer would be a resounding no. I want to be there when we finish 10-3 this year and you are scrambling the explain the "experts'" predictions. Enjoy your gayhawk football(oxymoron, btw) which is where you belong.

OK. That convinced me. I'm officially off the 'clams to replace OB bandwagon.

If we go 10-3 this year, I'll give a

Unfortunately, he also brought Chris Cosh back to Kansas.
