Ok, so we need to get to 4-5 in conference in order to reach a bowl game. We're already 0-1, so we're not off to a very good start. I think we're a better team than ISU, KU and WVU. These are must wins if we want to bowl. That 6th one will be tricky though. We'll have to win one of the following games:

@OSU
Baylor
@Tech
TCU
OU

I think TCU at home is our best shot for the 6th W. Then maybe OU?

I think it's TCU too.

If we make some personnel changes to get more of our athletes on the field, then I see the last three as winnable ball games. If we try to outscheme everybody with the puds we have playing now, I don't think any of these games are winnable.

Road games are just going to be tuff for this team, SSOC (which is why KU makes me a little nervous). @TTU against that bozo Queensbury is going to be t-u-f-f tuff.

We might have to win two of those games

If we don't sweep ISU, WVU & KU then we have no shot at bowling in my imo.

Why does everyone think WVU is so awful? Because they lost to OU and Maryland?

Because they were terrible last year and they lost all their good players

On the contrary, I'd say their loss to OU is the most impressive thing they've done all season. I think they're awful because they beat William and Mary by 7 and lost to Maryland 37-0.

What if we got off to a slow start, pulled one out of our ass against Baylor and then get hot for the rest of the year? Ruin their dream season and stuff. Poetic justice.

K-State and Baylor would just keep rotating between ruining dream seasons. Didn't realize how rough the Circle of Life could be.

Either that or you guys are going to beat them and release another amazing I AM SO PROUD video

PIPE · « **Reply #15 on:** September 25, 2013, 02:40:12 PM »

Who cares?

Are you guys actually excited if we go 6-6, make some toilet bowl, only to lose another bowl game?

Pretty pathetic when we have 8 games left and can only find 3 sorta wins......

ksu will have to score about 60 to beat them...and I don't see that happening

WVU was terrible against Maryland. They had 175 total yards and 80 of those came on two runs in garbage time in the 4th quarter.

We care because we are K-State fans. You might not care because you are awful.

oh it was rhetorical. I'm calling that upset now, we are too talented on offense to give up on the season (shirt tucked into my shoes)

Have you not seen them play? They are god awful.

I think we have a good shot at beating TCU. They looked really bad against Tech. Tech isn't that great either but we play them in Lubbock.
