Time to build some big "mo"

From my blog...

With average Billybob-Hawkeye-fan walking around this week giving themselves more love than your run-of-the-mill inmate at Cell Block 4 after their “huge” win over Northwestern, it would be easy for Cyclone fans to be a little bitter. While the Hawks get to finish up with a couple of pretty easy games, we have a tough test against Colorado and then an all expenses paid trip to Lawrence to play the #4 Jayhawks.

I guess for me the part that really hurts is to think of the games against normally lesser opponents that we couldn’t get at the start of the year (Kent St./UNI/Toledo) and then seeing the way Nebraska has looked after playing us, one would think that if we had played the way we have the last 3 weeks all season that we would be sitting at 6-4 and bowl eligible right now. Of course it’s easier said than done, especially considering the time it takes to put in a new system with a new staff.

It would obviously be better to have a chance to go bowling this year, but if we can pull off a win against Colorado and at least be competitive in Lawrence, we should have some great momentum going into next year. Now if only we can figure out a way to knock those high and mighty Hawkeye fans down a peg or two…

As much as I like to see a lower level team in the Big XII do well in the BCS, I think we need to look at the KU game as a big W. Just take a look at their schedule this season, who have they beet. K-state which got man handled last weekend, Neb which the Clones out gained and out preformed in their game, Toledo again a team we out gained and should have beat.

Now I know that the would've, could've, and should've's never put points on the board, but it does show that Kansas is not a #4 BCS team and I hope that they are undefeted when we see them in Lawrence so that we can come out of there with a big win and have that momentum going into the off season.

I want nothing less than two wins. A win at home to get the fans on board and a win on the road to screw KU's season, and give us the BIG MO going into recruiting and next year. Wait, if we win both that's a winning streak and JP will raise prices on us. Oh well...:)
