If you had to choose...Share of Big XII title or BCS game?
« on: November 19, 2011, 11:30:31 PM »
(Scenario assumes we beat ISU) - If OU wins we win a share of the conference championship.  If OSU wins we jump OU in the conference standings and with so many of the top 10 losing tonight we're probably BCS bound.

We don't get a trophy for going to a BCS Bowl.

we could still get both, but if had to choose, give me the big XII trophy every day of the week

I haven't seen anything other than posters saying trophy/cc share even is possible. if the confy actually recognizes us as a co champ, I want that.
I once blew clove smoke in a guy's face that cut in front of me in the line to KJ's.

Conference title....no one cares who won the 2002 Sugar bowl....titles are what you play for.  Plus, you go to the BCS game and lose.....you got nothing except some tshirts and gym bags.

As I posted elsewhere, I'm on team title. Only a sqwawk would argue otherwise.

not sure that matters to us. look, I'm all for a conference title if the conference officially recognizes it, but until that happens, I'm of the belief the conference will use tie breakers to determine one team only as the champ.

If the conference officially recognizes KU as basketball champs over the last 7 years. Why would they not recognize us as football champs this year?

The tie breaking procedures are there to decide who gets the BCS auto bid.  There are no tie breaking procedures for "conference champ".

because they are different sports? I dunno man, I'm just skeptical particularly since there are tie breakers in place for football with no mention of co-champ anywhere. maybe I'm wrong.

Those tie breakers have nothing to do with who is "conference champ". There are also tiebreakers in place for basketball.

I think we can do both. If OU wins, we have a share of the conference but OU gets the AQ BCS spot. That opens the door for Currie and UPKS to buy K-State an at large spot a la Lew Perkins. Lets make this crap happen.

OSU will have lost 2 in a row. That can't be an attractive pick for bowl committees.

Trying to claim this as a conference championship worth celebrating as such would be incredibly beams-ish, you have to admit.
