Master KSU Butthurt About Being Passed Over Eventually Thread

[MixBerryCrunch]

What percentage of the 2nd place votes does Oregon have? They won't ever pass us in the computers so we just need to basically split the second place votes. Just curious how much we need to steal.

We are 36 points behind Oregon in the AP. 29 points behind in the Coaches... Some perspective, we are 67 and 81 points up on ND in the respective polls. The gaps between Oregon and us are two of the smallest between consecutively ranked teams. I am starting to feel better about this, guys.

Not that it matters a whole lot but we are only 26 points behind Oregon in the AP, ESPN has us at 1885 but we actually have 1895. We've been steadily gaining ground on them, which suggests that more and more people think we are as good or better than them.

Also, I don't know if this will have any bearing on the voting but from what I've been seeing more and more analysts are saying that we would be the tougher match up with Alabama.

Yeah but that changes week to week and no matter what happens with us they are going to look good to humans when they beat a hapless Cal this week by 90. Cal blows. UO couldn't possibly look anything BUT impressive.

We're gonna get mumped.

Doesn't that hurt their computer ranking?

not enough probably. I don't think all 6 computers use SOS

What makes your posts so awful is that they are completely devoid of any thought, logic, or even acknowledgement of events that have already taken place. It's fascinating to watch, really.

SOS is basically the ONLY thing they use. They just all calculate it in different ways.

I'm guessing he's trolling and has been for a while.

I'm guessing you're giving him a bit too much credit. I've been wrong before, though.

Too much whiney emotional posters.  Its not healthy to worry so much about hypothetical future scenarios.  Stay in the present and enjoy this glorious season.

ND losing is bad. Stop thinking it's good.

You think we don't enjoy posturing about who/what/when/where/why we will be playing the MNC!?!?! Thats the whole facking point of CFB.

WTF else are we supposed to enjoy/do? Act like we've been here before and we'll be here again soon? Grow-up.

I don't know how any of this works, I'm just looking for reasons to be butthurt.

[wabash909]

No matter what happens, I just want us to build our own trophy and then proudly display it.

We also need to have a parade for good measure.

There's a difference between posturing about it and being butthurt and complaining about crap that hasn't happened.

The elite posters on this board have it down.

The more I think about it, the more I think ND is completely irrelevant.

Yes, they are currently a buffer in the Computer polls b/c they are higher than Oregon. Even if ND wins out, their Computer numbers are going to drop because they play two hapless teams (BC & Wake) before playing a floundering USC (that may have one or two more losses on their resume since they play AZ St & UCLA between now & then).

Win or lose, ND is going to drop behind Oregon in the computers by Dec 1.

Rightly or wrongly, fairly or unfairly, this whole hot mess is going to come down to the voters my friends.

What I wonder is if any program has ever had a "Vote for KSU" push, the way schools pimp Heisman hopefuls to the voters...if nobody has done it before, we should lead the pack by putting together a pamphlet highlighting all the reasons to vote KSU over Oregon on their ballots...besides the obvious SOS & other factors, I think voters could be swayed by a vote for LHCBS to finally get his shot angle...

and Alabama.

[michigancat]

Oklahoma State tried to influence votes.

And the computers are nice, but we will gain ground on Oregon in human polls if ND loses.

I'm guessing more voters have us ranked Oregon-ND-KSU than KSU-ND-Oregon. Therefore if ND loses, we gain in human polls.

In the AP poll we have 16 2nd place votes, 42 3rd place, and 1 4th place

No, you are bad at guessing.

It's highly unlikely that I'm wrong.
