Given KSU’s role as measuring stick, gatekeeper, etc., OSU will get the nod one way or another.

If osu loses they might as well change the tiebreaker rule again.

CCGs the Cats don't play in are boring and pointless. There is a 0% chance I watch.

Ends up this is a totally forgettable season filled with bad losses and zero good wins.

Oh well

There's no way this is serious, right?

I'd argue we had exactly one "bad" loss and one "good" win

The mizzou loss, even tho it's against mizzou, is way less bad looking back now. They are actually pretty good and we played like ass that game. I'm actually pretty pissed about last night and the Texas game still irks me.

We were in the Big 12 title hunt until the final game of the regular season and didn’t lose a single game by more than one possession. It takes a solid team and some good luck to have an exceptional season and all we had was a solid team this year.

It's ok to be disappointed that we finished 5th place in a year we probably should have finished 2nd place.

The fact that I don't reflexively know which these two are kind of argues against that

I think it's fair to say that the team lost several games they should have won, but didn't win any that they should have lost.

Good team, could have had a better season.

Exactly. Did I fall into a coma and we became 1990s Florida State and no one told me? We have never ever and I don't think we'll ever be in the position of calling losses to top 20 teams, bad losses. Two of those losses are to top 10 teams, I've of which might be playing for a national championship.

I think it argues that you might not be playing super close attention. 3 of the 4 losses were on the road to top 20 teams! The other was a home loss to Iowa State. Think about it!

Kansas is clearly the best win but I could possibly be swayed to say it isn't "good"...but I don't know why anyone would do this unless they want to feel worse about the season to win an argument or something

I've really enjoyed this season so far. Just a handful of plays away from going back to defend our Pepper.
There could be a very fun bowl game in our future as well. Iowa St loss was very weird but whatever.

The correct answer to our best win is actually Troy, which will be 11-2 after winning the Sun Belt title on Saturday with their only other loss by 2 points to James Madison. Pretty decent chance they'll finish 12-2 and in the top 25.

forgot about that one but I think KU on the road might be better (bonus for rivalry game)
