THIS WAS NOT OUR ONLY SHOT
« on: November 17, 2012, 10:30:12 PM »
I'm sure many of you are thinking, "Oh, woe is me, we'll never have another shot at a season like this again." It was a common sentiment among very smart people as a way to say you should enjoy every moment. And yes, every moment of this season should be savored, and it should be enjoyed.

But if you think we'll never have a shot like this again?

YOU'RE rough ridin' WRONG. WE WILL HAVE OPPORTUNITIES LIKE THIS AGAIN.


It isn't 1972, crap it isn't even 1998. THIS SEASON PROVES IT CAN HAPPEN AGAIN. College football changes so rough ridin' fast these days, and programs just don't permanently die any more (just like programs aren't permanently good). We're 4 goddam years removed from having Ron WTF Prince coaching our team, and we had a national title within our grasp. Look at how quickly Auburn fell? ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN.

Not only that, we also have a 4 team playoff in place along with a ridiculously confusing access Bowl system that will just give us more opportunities to be in this position again. Oh, have you noticed those giant rough ridin' cranes at our stadium, just making us more and more attractive as a program?

Bottom line, enjoy this season, it's been amazing, and is STILL amazing; but don't rough ridin' cry about this being our only shot or this never happen again, because if you think that, you just aren't paying attention. WE WILL HAVE SEASONS LIKE THIS AGAIN.

If we only drop behind ND, Alabama, and Georgia, we still have a shot at the NC if USC beats ND.

have you paid rough ridin' attention to any games tonight? Oregon and Stanford were led by two coaches who were promoted from within and surpassed their predecessors. OU is coached by an ex DC.

AND EVEN HIRING rough ridin' RON PRINCE DIDN'T KEEP US AWAY FROM THIS AMAZING SEASON

We just lost to a 4-5 team.  We will drop to 7 at a min.  Title is gone.

If ND loses you probably have a great shot.  Oregon isn't going to the P12 title game so that will hold them back.  Pull for USC and face off against the SEC champ.

Ron Prince was the product of a dumbass President and an AD who wouldn't listen to the only man who ever won at K-State.   A president who wanted an African American coach so it would fit his agenda and add a bullet point to his legacy and fuel his personal ego. 

While I understand it's Currie, I hope his huge ego understand the importance of at least giving the Snyder tree a try to carry forward before looking outside of it.

I want to believe this, but realistically, we'll all die without seeing a NC for football. Accept it.

I agree with what Rusty said. It's reasonable and rational.

But right now it still feels like this might be the only shot.

how do you see that?  We were exposed in some very specific ways Dax pointed out.  Top teams remain top teams for very specific reasons, as much as Rusty likes to think otherwise.

Up to this point, it wasn't magical, we rammed it down peoples' throats. We dominated. no luck, no magic, but just awesome football.
