In 1987 KU (1-7) and KSU (0-8) were considered the worst football teams in the NCAA. They met in what was called the "Toilet Bowl," a game that would decide which of the 2 programs was the more massive turd. It ended in a 17-17 tie when KSU missed a last second field goal. I think both teams finished the season with one win.

I was wondering how long it'd take you to show up! :D BTW, the Illinois-Indiana banter is already annoying. I'll have pissing match with you, shake things up if you like. Well who am I supposed to fight with then? Someone on your level. Any Missouri State fans here? :wink:

Haven't seen most of these teams play, so essentially, I'm winging it.

Last year vs KU, Adarius Bowman (OSU WR) had 13 receptions for 300 yards and 4 TDs. He's scary.

Not sure if that's true. IF KU and OSU win out, I think they'll play for the title. I think an undefeated KU would leapfrog Oregon and LSU in the polls. Not saying they're a better team, but I think it would happen. KU almost definitely won't win out though if they don't get their D back in order. You might be right, but rarely (not never, but rarely) does a team drop in the polls unless they lose. I think the computers combined with the polls will keep LSU in the second spot if they win out. If LSU wins out, they will add a win over Arkansas as well as whoever they beat in the SEC championship. I think that will be enough. It's not as rare as you might think. I need look back only as far as...today to see an example. We leapfrogged WV this week. And this is the exact type of situation where a leapfrogging is likely to occur. Right now, the voters are very dubious of KU. So they'll keep them behind the heavy-hitters (Oregon, OU, LSU), essentially waiting for them to lose or prove themselves. Victories over 2 top 10 teams will likely be enough to win over enough skeptical voters who are simply waiting for them to lose. The whole scenario is really unlikely anyway, but it's fun for me to think about. We'll have our hands full at OSU this weekend with that high-powered offense, and Mizzou is walking around just sally-slapping teams on the road. We could easily lose both of those games.

Yeah, unfortunately it looks like Mizzou is the creme of the crop, though both KU and OU (obviously) are capable of beating them. I really wish the game were in Lawrence this year. I just don't know how we'll cover that offense.

The only way we go undefeated and miss the title game is if there are 2 other undefeated teams. Are we "this" good? We're well coached. We're pretty talented but not as talented as the heavy hitters. And we won't run the table regardless. next week at OK State will be tough, and I think we'll lose to Mizzou. I'll take 10-2 and a bowl, if that's what it comes to.

48-24. at work. can we not stopn these clowns? thats not good.

eh they suck. if ku doesnt win by more than two touchdowns, thatll be the surprise of the day (boy was that weird to type). mizzou needs to win today. absolutely has to. i dont know what ill do if they lose. M-I-Z! the fact everyone is finally picking us scares me. dunno how we'll play w/ a target on our backs.

terrified by a wounded Nebraska

haha. and haha@StL, too.

CAN YOU EVEN TELL RF FROM LF?

Hey, your SOS will probably crack the top 100 whether you squeak by or annihilate the Huskers, so you've got that going for you. We've played 3 of the last 4 on the road in difficult venues. The SOS thing is losing its merit. Sagarin thinks wer're a bit underrated. http://www.usatoday.com/sports/sagarin/fbt07.htm Honestly, though, I'm jusy enjoying the ride right now. We're still a lot better than people give us credit for, but we'll lose eventually. I think we'll rush the ball down Nebs throat, but they have a very talented team, and a loss is certainly possible.

don't cry because your team hasn't won in three weeks.

haters.

jeebus. the good thing about that end is that it won't breed overconfidence. I think KU let off a bit in the end, and aTm got right back in it. We're not talented enough to go at 90% and still win.

it's this 4th q that worries me. even if we win this, im not sure how we'll stop a chase daniel.

why can't anything ever be easy?

not over yet

We're making them look pretty bad right now. If you can shut down that run game, aTm gets significantly easier to beat.

i didnt see it ;) didn't realize you were a big XII ref.
