I still don't understand all you KSU fans for this game. They are 1 game ahead of us. They already beat us at home. And if (they most likely will) beat us in Manhattan they will be 2 full games up on us. In which case we aren't catching them to win the league.


If we can't end the streak I just assume KU keep it going. I sure as hell don't want KSU or Baylor to end it.

Its quite simple.

KU has one real threat remaining on the road, @TTU . They'll probably win out at home.

KSU has a much tougher schedule remaining. And we get a chance to knock them off down in Manhattan, whereas we're already done playing KU until KC.

Our chances of winning the big 12 go up quite a lot if ksu finishes here.

There’s been a point every year since Hoiberg people here try convincing us that we want KU to win. I’ll start thinking we want them to win when they’ve lost 3 more, until then you can’t convince me that them winning is good for our title chances.

If KSU wins this game and beats us in Manhattan we aren't winning the league. Cause KSU isn't losing against the bottom teams.

Any league where a Bruce Weber team wins the conference loses all credibility.

We get it, you don’t like KSU.

If KU wins, they maybe lose at TT, but should win the rest, which means we would have to win out to clinch the conference. KSU still has a tough schedule ahead of them (including the rematch against us). It’s entirely possible we have at least 1 more loss between our road games at KSU, Texas and WV.

And if you were even slightly paying attention to the computer rankings thread, our chances of winning the conference would shoot up to 60% with a KSU win after we took care of business in Norman. Why wouldn’t you want those odds?

KSU will be underdogs at Baylor and at KU and I bet the lose both of those games.
ISU, Texas, and Baylor all still got to Manhatten and they play TCU on the road; out of those games, I bet the lose at least another game. If that game is against ISU, we're in the driver seat to win the conference.

Also, Kansas ******* cheats at basketball and they can go to hell.

KSU still has to play @Baylor and @ Kansas, as well as ISU and Baylor at home. They have plenty of opportunities to pick up losses. Kansas doesnt have nearly as many.
