We better win the next three, as difficult as the first three conference games were tech, tcu, KU, and WVU should be layups. All four might be as inept individually this year as they've ever been since they've been in this conference and the only one left on the road is the worst of the four. 7 wins is the absolute floor for this team. For this to be a successful season we need to sweep the next three and win one of the last two. There are some years when finishing 6th would be respectful, this is not one of those years.

That was a huge statement win. Everything against you, fam base ready to run you out in the 1st quarter, and you still win on the road as dogs. He’s about to real off 4 in a row. I’m a Kli, guy!

We were favored to win this game

I just assumed with a road conference game vs 5-2 team. What was the line?

Congrats WackyTuck

I'll take 5 more being a little less awful than the other team games for the rest of the season.

I don't disagree, but I also don't think we'll get there. The last two games have been incredibly sloppy, almost like we're getting worse. We don't look like the same team that blew away their OOC opponents.

I think we'll go 2-1 over the next 3. Bowl eligible!

Any loss in the next three is simply unacceptable and should be treated as a disappointment, and the worst failure of the Klieman era.

I think that's a bit extreme without the hindsight of how everyone finishes the season (unless the loss is ku of course)

Nah, I've seen TCU and WVU, we are absolutely better than the both of those teams. We're beyond midway through the season.
Both had easy front loaded schedules and neither will make a bowl without two upsets. TCU has a just okay offense and a heels hella bad defense. WVU has an okay defense but the worst offense in the conference. They are bad and if we're even decent those are games we win at home, zero excuses.

Neil Brown has some kind of Country Roads voodoo on us. We should absolutely win, but for some reason that's one I could see us laying an egg in.

Brown just got very lucky in 2019, there wasn't magic. They obviously destroyed us last year.

Still, we're only three point favorites, if they get us it won't be a monumental upset.

I mean, there aren't more than a few games in the B12 (excluding any KU games) that would fall in the "monumental upset" category anyway.

It's a home game against a team we should beat, and I think we will. If we don't, it will be SIX losses in a row to WVU and Kli will be 0-3 v. Brown

Jonathan Adams Jr... we made him look like a 1st round draft pick. Instead, he went in the 4th round to the Jets, and then the Lions, and now has been released.

But, Covid and stuff.

I didn't forget, I legitimately think this would be worse given the circumstances of the two games.

Tech is one win away from bowl eligibility and they fire their coach?  They've already won one more game than last year.
