K.U. - Page 11

djrcmay · 11-17-2007, 09:20 PM

The teams K.U. built their 11-0 record on are 36 wins and 70 losses for the season.

That's an awesome way to spin what I said.....

It was an example of a team that compares to them but plays in a better conference.....that is why I said those conferences are better.

Yeah, but they're in the SEC so they're naturally more dominate than anything the Big 12 could produce. They're 7-4, but they play in the SEC, so that's alright. If KU/MU played the same schedule as UK they'd be 3-8. That's just how good the SEC is. Their is no parity in college football, the SEC dominates and that is all. LSU is the New England Patriots of college football, utterly unbeatable and immaculate. May God take pity on the poor Big 12 team that may have to play them if they make it that far. KU/MU had better pack body bags, it could get ugly.

23rd in total defense, compared to Kansas' 12th.
29th in scoring defense, compared to Kansas' 2nd.
28th in passing defense efficiency, compared to Kansas' 11th.

Other than one statistic that Vandy is better than Kansas, I don't see a merit on his argument.

OK, I made that up. Mecca has never sent me a PM. I just thought it was the next logical progression for Mecca.

That's cool to believe something that didn't happen but hey to each their own.

Not a spin. It's a FACT, based on NCAA Division I statistics.

Hey, everything happens for a reason. I mean, like USC losing to Stanford, right?

As bad as the cupcake schedule for the first 4 games, they didn't let them "hang" around, per-se. They blew them out, which is what they were supposed to do.

Sorry about that Mecca. Everyone, MECCA DID NOT ACTUALLY SAY VANDERBILT IS BETTER THAN KU, but we all know he is thinking it.

Go compare schedules...I'll give you a wild guess who's is better....

I mean really Florida, Georgia, LSU those teams would kill every team in the big 12..

Also Kentuckys win over LSU is far better than any MU or KU win.

I don't think you grasp how much hatred is fueled in this rivalry.

Ceej · 11-17-2007, 11:57 PM

So, Mecca, at this point in time you'd take a team who has lost 3 out of 4, over a team who has won 11 in a row?

Do you feel that momentum is irrelevant in football?

I was talking to CJ not you......

Look..Kentucky played Florida and LSU.....you really think any team in the Big 12 compares to those 2?

I probably would too, but UK is in the middle of the pack among SEC teams this year.

Because he's unimpressive. Troy Smith was a better QB last year than Andre Woodson is this year, and I liked Troy Smith. Troy Smith will fail in the NFL, so will Woodson.
7-4 doesn't impress me. Regardless of the division, Andre Woodson is a good QB, not a great QB, not NFL starter caliber material. Chase Daniel will have a much more impressive senior year than Andre Woodson could dream of.
