Sounds to me like you're trying to put lipstick on a turd.

KU has played 11 top 50 RPI teams... Going 7-4. All 4 KU losses were against top 15 RPI teams (2 being true road games).
In Comparison, Mizzou has played all of 2 top 50 RPI teams in UCLA (#35) and Illinois (#39). Going 1-1
I'm not saying 4 losses at this point can be disregarded... but their W\L record is due to the strength of schedule and youth of the team early in the season... that is not arguable. And calling it a "turd" is fairly bewildering.
Wins\Losses without taking SOS into consideration is like looking at a Baseball Pitcher's W\L record while disregarding all other stats.
