Every once in a while I still get bummed out about 2012 not being a natty 'ship

[cas4ksu]

What would you say we have a better chance in winning a NC, MBB or FB?


I'd say MBB. With the way the selection committee for the CFP goes about selecting the final four, it seems like they will go with the more "brand" name university. Anything that relies simply on the eye test probably doesn't help us. Even in 2012, I'm not sure we would have been selected for the final four teams.

Well MBB will always be easier because it's a 68 team crapshoot.

We would have been selected in 98, but we were fifth in the BCS in 2012 so yeah probably not selected and nothing to get butthurt about.

Like it is posted at the start of this thread, K-STATE football is important to me but not as important as it was ten years ago (although I will go to my grave basking in the glory of a cold evening in December 2003 at Arrowhead, even if the gooner faithful want to forget it I will always remember 35-7!!!) let alone in 1998 (I was in St Louis and witnessed that debacle in person).  I was in a funk after the aTm championship game until at least the MNC game in January 1999, while I would have liked for the CATS won when they played Baylor in 2012 (Damn SI jinks!!) I was only in mourning for a week after that game and definitely was back cheering for my cats when they beat Tejas and won the Championship on December 1st.

Tejas, classic 75cat

Very therapeutic post, kudos to CF3 for starting it up. 
That being said, '98 was much worse. We were just a quarter of average football away from the MNC game. In '12 we still would've had to beat Texas (who we probably would've, maybe they get 'up' as a spoiler?).

This article thingy says we would have been 'in' in 2012

It was actually 2 weeks between Baylor and Texas iirc, had a bye I think.  And it sucked balls

Too bad y'all couldn't have played Auburn in 2012. But then again it probably would have killed your strength of schedule.

But sometimes I forget it in the midst of a season when my cats are 2-0 and then BANG! Big reminder right in front of my face.  Nice thread, tho!
