Beems, where will KU finish in the Big XII?
this. I want to know where beems believes his "one year wonders" will do for KU in year one. Since he's bragging about stars and Weiss' talents and those of his assistants I would estimate anything less than 8 wins as a predicto would indicate beems doesn't believe his own words.
shut up.
beems?
Still waiting to see who else Weis brings in. I think a few more impact transfers could be on the way. Right now, with the schedule, I'd say 7-5 at best. KU still has a lot of holes on the defensive side of the ball, and the Big 12 is no joke. Basically, I'm hoping that KU shows improvement and manages to be competitive at least. I'm not expecting Weis to just come in and work miracles right away.
Why not? You have instigated a 6 page thread bragging about the collection of 4 and 5 stars Weis is bringing in and now you need more info? You stated Weis just had a tough few years at Notre Dame because of his assistants but he knows what he's doing now.
So, if you have the assistants and the players are you expecting the Patriots roster to transfer to KU or something?
Let's do this...give me your W/L predictos
South Dakota State
Rice
TCU
@ Northern Illinois
@ Kansas State
Oklahoma State
@ Oklahoma
Texas
@ Baylor
@ Texas Tech
Iowa State
@ West Virginia
KU will be improved, but the Big 12 is tough, especially with the addition of West Virginia and TCU. KU needs to win the three non-con games, and then find a few wins between Baylor, Iowa State, Oklahoma State, and Texas Tech. I don't see us winning many road games, but you never know. All I know is that the program is better now than it was last year.
you stated 7-5 at best. I presented the schedule for you to show me where you get those seven wins. Show me the four conference wins because that will get you to 7-5. I don't see a 4-5 KU team in conference play next year. I can say with 100% certainty that KU will NOT beat TCU, KSU, OU, Texas, Baylor, Texas Tech, or West Virginia.
No you can't. No one expected K-State and Baylor to finish 10-3 last year. KU could easily beat one of those teams on any given night. Look, I realize that the 12-1 Orange Bowl season killed you inside, and you're scared shitless of the things Weis is doing with the current football program, but at least have some dignity.
your words glanced right off me as casually as a light spring breeze. Don't compare a team going into it's 3rd year under Snyder vs. that of a 1st year under Weis. First of all, there is zero comparison of the two as head coaches. Secondly, KU is coming off a two season stretch in which they've won 1 conference game, total.
Why did you bring up the Orange Bowl? Nobody here cares about that. KU had one great season in which they didn't face any of the top teams from the South (OU, Texas, and Tech would have destroyed KU).
Nothing about a program with Weis scares me. Nothing. He doesn't have tough football teams. His band of mental midgets in South Bend went 15-21 his last three seasons. Let that sink in...15-21. Don't blame Ty Willingham for his final three years. That is ludicrous. By year three in Manhattan Snyder had many of his own players and went 10-3.
The old "on any given night" is like a candle in the wind. I'll repeat. KU isn't beating TCU or Texas @ home (neither will be close) and they certainly won't win road contests at KSU, OU, Baylor, Tech, or West Virginia.
Obviously you don't know what many of these teams have coming back.
