Let’s look ahead at the Cats schedule...
« on: September 14, 2019, 03:42:38 PM »
Couple weeks ago we were remarking among the Mods that if we win 2 out of the upcoming stretch of @MSU,@OSu, BU, TCU then we’d be “on track” at being pretty good.  3-1 was thought to mean that we are dang good (like Alamo bowl good), and 4-0 meant watch out OU and damn, son.

Both OSU and Baylor look pretty good to me, but I think we have a real good shot at 3-1.  4-0 still seems unlikely to me, but the mere fact I am entertaining the idea blows my rough ridin' mind.

We're 3-0 with 3 winnable games before OU rolls into town. I think the toughest one is @OSU. We get a bye and something tells me that is a much better thing to have with Kli than previously. If we get to 4-0, we get the next two at home, and have a legit shot of 6-0, top 10? and gameday with OU. Holy crap I just typed that.

ksu has started 3-0 with a power 5 road win twice before:

1999 (vs temple, vs utep, @ iowa state); finished 11-1

2011 (vs eastern ky, vs kent st, @ miami); finished 10-3

I agree with all of this, and I cannot believe after last season, that what you just said is a very realistic possibility.

@OSU is going to be tough no matter the lead up, but our bye combined with their Texas gives us about as good a shot as you could hope for.

I think it also helps that our team is just better than them.

As long as we can catch the punts that they will be kicking to us all night long, we should run their raggedy asses up and down their own football field and beat them by about 30.

For reasons I can't explain, I think we beat osu by a couple touchdowns.

Nobody's asking or expecting you to. I like the attitude and thought.

By you and everyone.

We will hit them in the mouth early and establish our dominance, OSU looks soft.

oSu's run defense sucks.

 :dubious:

oSu rush defense: 3.6 ypp (#51 in ncaa)

ksu rush defense: 4.7 ypp (#100 in ncaa)

Against that powerhouse Mcneese state.

Oregon state and Tulsa have proven to be hot garbage with a combined record of 2-4. Oregon state was running fine until they got desperate and started throwing it all over.

factor into your algo that the cats have usually played well down in stillwater, and the last time we were down there i believe skylar was slinging the pill (chucking the football) all over the yard (football field)

'member how close we were to losing the home opener to Eastern Kentucky?  That game was terrifying and lollerific at the same time.
