Does anyone have that chart that moves 1 tick mark up for every win over the years, where we could compare it to K-State at this point?

We should make flyers with this and cover the state of Nebraska with them. How the mighty have fallen!

Holy crap I never thought about that. Nebraska hasn't been to a bowl since 2016.

I can't even imagine being that awful at football.

The Rhoades era was so much fun

Have they still not won an NCAA tournament game too? Tonight's loss won't help their seed. Go Leathernecks.

Ok ok, but which slope would be more fun to ski? That's the real question in realignment talks.

As far as skiing goes, pelini seems to be the frontrunner

No, the Mangino line is takeoff

Fred Hoiberg and Scott Frost are basically the football and basketball equivalents of each other in so many ways

cracks me up

That ku line was basically only arrested by Mangino, just incredible

It's incredible that Paul Rhodes won (didn't lose?) at a high enough clip for KU, with a 20ish game lead, to surpass him in futility pretty quickly.

It's still incredible that Chizik's stint got him the Auburn job and a National Title.

i am irl proud of our commitment to mediocrity. it gives us a chance to have a 2012 every once in a while!
and if you are a coach you only get two losing seasons and then we can your ass (2004/2005, 2007/2008, 2015/2018). it's very reasonable imo.

I'd take OSU's program over ours over the last 10 years. Both have a conference championship, but they've had more overall wins and been ranked higher and more often than us.

Yeah, and I think most people nationally view OSU as slightly above K-State... and usually have them in a tier above K-State in those silly college football tier graphics they put out.

that loss to iowa state in 2011 was devastating on like 4 different levels. and now we can see that OSU had a chance to get back to .500 (since 1996) if they would have won that game

He got that:job because of his DC tenure at auburn, they rightly completely ignored what he did at Iowa State because at the time they were a dog crap, toilet bowl who gave zero resources to their football program. Absolutely a worst program than KU at the time.

K-State & Oklahoma State, given the scope of college football, are the exact same program. We're a 7-8 win program, they are an 8-9 win program that absolutely cannot beat their most hated rival. They have fans that are just as frustrated and jaded about their program as you are. They have a 6 game losing streak to OU. We're beaten OU 4 times in 10 years. They've beaten them 4 times in 20.

Gundy has absolutely been solid, but nothing to the point where we should be aspiring to be like them.
