Who do we beat to become bowl eligible?

[michigancat]

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

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

have you seen us play?

[DQ12]

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......

Ever since Snyder took over, our program has built more and more steam.  That's been present in the win loss column, and also in general excitement about the program (selling out ULL after losing at home to FCS North). 

If we can sneak into a crappy bowl game, eek out a win against Rutgers or whoever, and end up with 7 wins, that's a decent season, given that we lost our Heisman finalist and 9 starters on defense.  As important, it keeps the average fan from falling back into apathy. 

Of course expectations have lowered after NDSU and Texas, but getting to a bowl game is important for keeping the program healthy.

If i was a WVU kid, I would definitely include the KSU game as a "must win" if I wanted to get to bowl eligibility.

I don't think winning in Lubbock is as tough of a task as people think

I know their spread offense vs our defense will be a nightmare but if they are still starting the true freshman walk-on QB who says he won't turn it over a couple times

[ColomboLQ]

That and because they are absolutely terrible. They are one of the 3 worst teams in the conference.

Yes. We are definitely not as bad as WVU.

It's just tough to win in Lubbock and they're pretty good.  Good point with the young qb though, but if we're going to start banking on other teams turning it over, we need a ball hawk or two to magically appear on our defense.

Nobody in this conference has played a team worth a damn besides TCU. We are 0-1 in conference play and i get that we suck but so does this conference. So maybe just maybe we wont suck as bad as the other sucky teams on a few occasions

Baylor definitely does not suck. OSU is also very good. OU is pretty good.

[puniraptor]

whats the most points given up by the cats in a 2 game stretch? does the incoming osu bu combo have a chance to beat that?

prolly

OU is going to get beat by Notre Dame. Baylor while high octane hasnt played a team with any sort of defense. And just being honest here I havent seen OSU play. I know its a very long shot by how bad we suck bust almost every team in this league is one or two injuries away from being at our level

Would. Take.

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

They are 4-8 in their last 12 games... Their wins are vs. ISU, KU, Ga State, and W&M. We'll beat those clowns by 3 TDs at home... 

If Boykin is still running this show for TCU I feel pretty good about that game too.

Chances of winning each game:
@OSU 20%
vs. Baylor 40%
vs. WVU 90%
vs. ISU 99%
@ TT 40%
vs. TCU 70%
vs. OU 40%
@ KU 100%

Tibs' defense gave up 122 in back to back games vs. Nub and MU in 07. That may be tough to beat...

For those who aren't stats inclined, these totally made up percentages would give us a 47% chance at beating KU, ISU, and WVU. We would have a 68% chance of winning at least one of the games we shouldn't. I think that sounds pretty realistic based upon what I have seen of this team.

my current mindset makes me feel like we would be lucky to keep it under 150

You didn't answer the question. We look really bad, but still better than KU.

Tim, please list three things that you've been impressed with, with KU this season. Now try and do it with a straight face.

[mocat]

Maryland is really good this year. Turd has those guys playing well. That said, WVU is really bad.

Until KU wins a conference game I don't believe they are capable of even keeping it close.

52 yard FG, tho.

KU's average yards per carry is worse than ours. Let that sink in.
