K-State loses tonight, they finish at 6-6. But with 2 of this wins being against FCS opponents, and only able to count one of those for bowl eligibility, they also won't be going to a bowl.

Colorado's already ineligible, and after losing to aTm today Baylor will be as well.

That leaves 8 Big 12 bowl eligible teams with 8 Big 12 bowl slots. Methinks we're going bowling.

youre right.... i mean what the hell? Im positive if we blitzed missouri would totally exploit it! Good grief, what are we trying to do on some of those plays? Walter's call sounds like this, "Arnaud takes the snap, under pressure, now avoids it, rolls to his right. looking downfield. throws it deep!.." etc.

So when Missouri rushes 7, we cant get one of our 4 recievers open quickly?????

eeeh....

Clearly we didn't clean up every mistake from the past two years, but you could say that even if we went 7-5 or 8-4. The point is that the turnaround done here this year is absolutely jaw-dropping. We weren't supposed to win a conference game this year (maybe an outside shot of beating Baylor at home). Under Chiz I'm convinced we wouldn't have either, the talent as a whole is not great, we are embarassingly slow and yet we won 6 games and 3 in the conference and are going bowling. This team plays as hard as any team I have seen, that's the only thing that gave us a shot today against a far-more talented Mizzou team and we had them on the ropes...I just can't wait until better talent arrives to help (not trying to knock our current players at all, couldn't be prouder of them).
