What's it gonna take?
« on: January 18, 2015, 10:08:08 AM »
What's the win total have to be to get in? Known stud and EMAW Doug gottlieb has us a lock if we win 18 games. Will that do it with our shitty loses?

The Big 12 is considered the best league in the country, if we get eleven Big 12 wins (counting KC) we'll have at least 7 quality wins in there and that will probably be enough in spite of our OOC.

10-8 feels right.  Would be ideal to get 2 wins from the 6 games against ISU KU WVU

68 teams have to make it. The last 3-4 teams that get in could have weak resumes. They usually do. If we went 11-8 or 11-9 ( that counts Kc)..... I believe our chances are better than 50/50 and I would like our chances of sneaking in.

However, That puts us at either 18-14 or 18-15, so far from a safe bet or a "lock" getting in with 11 conf wins.

Like every year, it depends on what the rest of the bubble looks like.

It is difficult to imagine us getting above "bubble" status, but as long as we beat TCU and Tech on the road, we won't have any "bad" losses and any win we get will be "quality". So basically, staying above .500 overall with no bad conference losses will likely have us in the discussion.

Of course. You sound like LHC Bill Snyder talking about a recruiting class.

It's very true. Team #65 getting in could have a decent resume, while teams 66-68 could have shaky ones.  We won't know til early to mid March.    3 home games and a game at Tech in our next 6 games... We have the opportunity to build some on this 4-1 start.

The next four; win the home games (OSU, WVU). Get to the midway point at 6-3 and I'll be feeling pretty positive.
