This team isn't better than 2014 or 2016.

I wasn't making the argument that they are, probably going to end up around the same as both of those teams, 8-4ish. Which makes the meltdown that some people are having, really confusing to me.

I think the meltdown is more about the performance than the outcome.

That's pretty disappointing for a team picked to compete for conference championship.

And only 3 more conference losses seems very unlikely.

But honestly we all know if KU finishes higher than KSU this year and on a path to pass the program then Klieman will have a warm seat very quickly.

I think you might be the only one that still thinks this team can win 8 games.

8-4 will be tough, but I still think Texas is the only definite loss on the schedule

Every road game is going to be a battle, especially if Will contiinues to be so generous/inconsistent.

Well yeah but we only have 3 road games left and Tech and KU are still very winnable.

In looking at the schedule, I don't see any SEMOs or Troys remaining?

Everyone thinks this team CAN win go 5-2 with the schedule we have left. If you, or anyone else, doesn't think we can win 8 that means you have doubts about 6 and I'll take that bet right now, name your terms.

at this point, i’m starting to think that coach snyder is telling opposing coaches our playbook in an effort to get klieman fired so that snyder could come back for one more shot at a natty

i’d love for anyone here to provide a more plausible explanation for what has transpired this season

I honestly have no idea what any of this means.  I think Houston at home and Baylor at home are pretty much automatic W's to get to 5 total wins.  Don't see us winning any of the remaining road games.  If you win the remaining home games then you get to 7, split and you get 6.  To get to 8 would mean running the table at home and winning a road game against 3 teams that appear to be orders of magnitude better than OSU.

We've already beaten a few teams that are magnitudes of order better than OSU. OSU is probably the worst team that I have ever watched a K-State football team lose to.

Agreed, it was like perplexing to watch them just absolutely play one of the worst games tbh. I know they can do better

The best team we've beaten is either UCF or Troy.  I don't see them as orders of magnitude better than Oklahoma State.  In fact I'd argue UCF is worse.

UCF appears to not have a defense, which is one of the three phases of football (offense and special teams being the other two). I watched with my own (2) eyes as KSU displayed perhaps the strangest poor performance I've ever seen on Friday night. Will Howard looked like total ass. It was just an uncharacteristic game all around. I think you just burn the game film and treat it like it never even happened, because there was just too much weird ass crap that happened during that game. You guys are nowhere near as bad as you looked against OSU.

Yeah a lot of people don't realize that you can lose to a team that is worse than you are and you can still be a better team the rest of the way

That's true.  My general rule is that you're probably better than the second best team you've beat and worse than the second worst team you lost to. 

In that case we're in between Missouri and Troy.
