Who should Currie get to replace Snyder?
Who will he actually get?

It would be really hard to have a better record than last year, especially since we play in Norman.

But aside from Norman, who knows?
well since we lost to OU last year i don't know how this even makes a difference. it just gives us one more winnable home game.
schedule last year was just as hard as this years imo.
look at last years road trips:
@ Miami
@ UT
@ OSU
@ TTU (one of the hardest places to win in the big 12)

this year we get
@ OU
@ BU
@ ISU
@ WVU
@ TCU

only one that really scares me is at OU and WVU. But we could easily beat both of those teams, and every game at home is in our favor.
We could easily go 10-2 at the VERY LEAST, if not 11-1 or....... 12-0 :ksu: :ksu: :ksu: :ksu: :ksu: :ksu: :ksu: :ksu: :ksu:

Winning ten games last year was really hard.

I like the sound of this 12-0 jazz. Tell me more.

If we are a better team this year we will win equal to or more games.

Glad you bumped the thread for this insight.

Personally, I think we'll have precisely the same level of team, but a worse record.  I realize this thread isn't for people who think this way (start a new thread, maybe?) but I just wanted to throw my thoughts out there... kinda let folks know there are other pathways out there.

we were 3-5 last year. A better team will finish with a better record. The "better team worse record" mantra is a cop-out.
