bwah ha ha ha ha ha!!!!

Rock chalk baby!!!

(in all seriousness, I'm shocked actually....)

I wonder if this will have any effect on how teams schedule?

If Kansas can get into the BCS by scheduling high school teams and coming in third in their conference, and losing when they have a chance to prove they are an upper tier team... why would anyone play any good teams?

OSU v. LSU, I hope LSU obliterates them.

If, at the beginning of the year, you told me Kansas was going to lose by 35 in the Orange Bowl, I'd think it's a lot better than sitting at home :shrug:

OSU is far and away the best team in the country.

fuck the fucking BCS and all of the rat c*nt college administrators who allowes this feral mutant hog shit to happen.

The Orange Bowl committee was worried.....
 

Missu-Ra would be called for excessive penalties?

The production quality of this selection show is awful. You can tell this is their 1st time doing this.

reeruned.

OSU isn't the fifth best team in the country.

The bottom line is that MU did have 2 losses and a weak strength of schedule. KU ranked slightly higher in the final polls and had only one loss AND travels well. Life is good in KU land right now after all the whining crying tiger fans have going on and on and on....karma is good.

LMAO

I'm just sitting here laughing, this is so ridiculously dumb. It's too dumb to even be angry about it, it's just... hilaritardation.

LMAO until they play a PAC 10 team or a SEC team.

They'll get blown out of the water aganist LSU.

FACT: Ohio State is 0-8 vs the SEC in bowl games.

If Kansas had to play Oklahoma twice, they'd probably lose 3 times.

Wait. The Orange Bowl had first pick of the at large teams? How does that work? So, if the Orange had not picked KU (or MU), do you think the Jayhawks would have gone to the Fiesta?

Well, this is the seaon I've waited for for about 10 years. There's no good argument that any of these teams are #1 or #2, there's no good argument that the winner of that game should be #1, basically it shows that this is just a bunch of crap and they need to play it off on the field.

Oh it did, it allowed an inferior team to fall ass over teakettle into a Bowl they have no business being in.

no, no, you got it all wrong. They beat Michigan. Their only loss is to a team that is playing in a BCS game.

Cause you just got the crap beat out of you by Oklahoma. Get over it. Don't forget to trash those number one in the nation shirts I saw this weekend.

:LOL:

Actually, Missouri was ranked higher in all the polls and the BCS than KU and had a much higher strength of schedule.

You got a gift. Congrats, it's found money - enjoy it. But don't kid yourself and think Kansas deserves that. At least be honest.

Missouri beat KU that is in itself should put KU out, end of story.

Because we're so much better...LMAO.

Karma?? Try a hopeless, dickless, two running cards to a straight flush suck out.

Missouri had the 26th SOS, beat two teams going to a BCS bowl.

Kansas was 109th in SOS, and their best win was against Ok St.

Missouri beat KU head to head, and their two losses were to 1 team.

The BCS is why NFL will always be supreme.

How many teams in the top 10 could OSU beat......maybe 2?

I really don't care that KU got the Orange over Mizzou. KU had a nice year and Mizzou looked like crap in a game that's fresh in everyone's minds.

Personally as far as KU is concerned, I'll take the Cotton Bowl and Scoreboard over backing in to the Orange Bowl.

That's OK. We all know how well KU does against ranked teams at neutral sites. I don't think they make t-shirts that say "We Got Killed At The Orange Bowl."

At the end of the day, you will have won nothing. This is just more of the same empty squawking we've heard all year long.

And you are still our bitches, and everybody knows it.

Ohh boy the Chicken fans are going to be obnoxious for weeks to come...

Are you serious?

KU can easily beat VTech, they have a far better chance at winning than they would have in the Fiesta.

Because they had the chance to get the crap beat out of them... if it was the other way around, and Kansas beat Mizzou and then lost by 30 to OU, and then got passed over for Mizzou? Come on, people...

ROFL

You're reeruned.

KU can't hide their lousy schedule.

But is it really much different than what Ohio State did to get in the Title game?

Don't know. I thought that was strange, as well. But I'm not complaining. :)

Grow the f**k up, zen. You pulled the same grade school insults when I predicted the BCS top-ten... and whaddya know, I f'ing NAILED IT.

It's a pity I couldn't nail the REAL reeruned people -- those who picked KU over MU.

Haha, you totally just parroted the TV guy

I'm annoyed, and I'm one of them.

Mizzou got royally screwed, people. If the tables were turned, Jayhawk fans would be sh*tting their pants.

Ohio State has beaten a few legitimate teams and won their conference outright. Kansas isn't a viable comparison at all.

I need to find the sports channel that allows that first sentence on air.

If the Orange had picked MU, we would have been in the Cotton. If they had picked another team that wasn't MU, we likely would have been in the Fiesta.

But they ended up choosing KU over all of them....we rule.

I love it. Keep it coming MU whiners. The fact that you want to trash the Hawks so badly yet you are SO insanely jealous right now is classic. NO matter how you want to look at it and NO matter how it was the KU made it to the Orange bowl this is summed up in one way: Ku won and MU wishes it were in KU's spot right now. All the crying about strength of schedule and head to head means NOTHING now. Thank you very much.

KU's selection was a joke and everyone in America knows it. I hope Chase and the boys remember the screw job they received this year and tear Big 12 apart in 08.

All that matters to me is that MU won the North and beat Ill and KU on neutral fields. What bowl these teams are in changes nothing.

It's exactly like Tennesse... They lose in their conference championship, and it's Georgia, a team Tennessee beat, that's going to a BCS game.

There's really no need to rub in the evident failings of the BCS system.

Ohio State beat four ranked teams this year. And their only loss was to a BCS team. You can see that. I couldn't make an argument that KU deserves the Orange Bowl to save my life.

Hey, whatever, I think the Arkansas game is going to be good for us, probably a better matchup. But this is what it is, a gift and nothing but.

:stupid:

We beat you and won the North that is all that matters. Everyone knows MU is better its been proven.

I don't think it's a joke at all. KU deserved to be in a BCS bowl after the season they had. The joke is that MU, the #1 ranked team yesterday, didn't make one.

Scoreboard, one who sucks the penis.

Nothing else matters. The end.

Nah. Georgia's resume is much much much better. Tennessee's whole resume is the one game against Georgia. Not remotely close to the KU/MU situation.

Third best team in the conference.

I'm not really trying to Compare OSU to the Jayhawks. I'm comparing their schedule to the rest of the top 10.

They beat probably the worst Michigan team of the last 15 years and an Illinois team that didn't beat anybody.

If I were Missouri, notwithstanding history, I'd be just as pissed that an Illinois team that I beat got in too.

Bottom line, the way this year unfolded, there are many college football fans upset with the selections, period......

Your right. I honestly did not think KU would make it into a BCS bowl. I honestly felt like the better team won when KU/MU met. But I have bee n silently taking in all the KU bashing by the mooo fans and today was enough. I feel sorry for MU but not THAt sorry.

It doesn't matter, I think the Arkansas matchup is good for us and will be a great game.

The only reason it irritates me is because beakers take this as some kind of vindication that they are better than Mizzou, even though they lost head to head at a neutral site.

It doesn't matter even when you beat them on the field, deep down, they never think anyone is better than them. Even after it's been proven.

This happened because the BCS does not exist to be fair, it exists to make the most money for the member bowl games. That's ok with me. Let's just be honest about that.

That's the only explanation, because no one can make a rational argument that this was the right call.

And that makes them undeserving of being in a BCS bowl because?
IMO, rules shouldn't prevent 3 teams in one conference from playing in them. Florida and MU got screwed out for that reason..

You're coming off as a bit jealous, I must say, though, but I don't blame you.

except that you are being a winy bitch

Well I know a lot of Missouri fans are probably mad right now but I don't think they should be mad at KU.

Personally I feel both teams should be playing in BCS games. If you're mad about anything it should be that there is a rule that only allows 2 teams from the same conference to get in. That rule should go out the window. I don't think teams should be penalized for being in the same conference.

How exactly did KU "win"? By playing a cupcake schedule and backing into a bowl game? KU Played three... THREE teams with winning records: Central Michigan (doesn't even count), aTm, and Mizzou... and we all know how that Mizzou game went.

I concede that I wish Mizzou was in a BCS game, but I'm not the least bit jealous of your fraud football team.

IMHO, USC, OU and Georgia all deserved to be called the best team playing right now in the ship' game. But that didn't happen.........

MU did get shafted, but that's the way this stupid system works..........

Four teams that were barely ranked and aren't anymore.

Again, I'm not comparing OSU to KU, I think OSU is the better team. What I'm saying is that there really isn't a good argument why OSU is there and not Georgia or USC except that they played a weaker schedule, didn't have to play a conference championship game, and have 1 less L to show for it.

NO ONE really "deserves" to be in this title game, and I couldn't be happier.

Let's get the playoff momentum going finally.

Wasn't one of the worst Michigan teams in the last 15 years and Illinois holds wins over Ohio State, Wisconsin, Penn State, and Indiana. They're more deserving of a BCS bid than Kansas was.

definitely Mizzou should be in Illinois spot and Florida should be in Hawaii's

Why does a third place team deserve it instead of a second place team? Why does a team who lost to the other deserve to get picked over them?

There's no argument. It's just business, that's fine. But there's no argument.

Yeah the Big Ten sucked this year. The only teams they beat were each other. Look at the Out of conference.

And Michigan did suck this year. It's why they lost to Appalachian State and Llyod Carr got fired, er retired.

Missouri wasn't the 3rd best team in their conference and Florida finished 5th in the SEC.

Hush you, MU was better that night, OK.
;)

If it was Nebraska, I could see it. I wouldn't like it, but I would at least understand it with Nebraska's tradition. With KU football being a tradition since September (stolen from a Gameday sign) I seriously don't understand how you can put KU ahead.

sorry buddy it's not about who deserves it. It's about who the Orange Bowl Picked as an "AT LARGE" team. Obviously they wanted Kansas not Mizzery, get over it and don't let Arkansas bite down on that ass.

and misouri has tradition? Please...

BTW this "great" Ohio State team is not as talented as last years and will probably get blown out even worse against another SEC School.

Wow, congrats. You are a good poll watcher. Doesn't mean you have a future in Vegas. I'm not saying KU will win. But I can't wait until I get to pull up some of these ridiculous predictions and shove back in your reeruned face. :p

I think everyone can agree that the BCS is STUPID KU, Mizzery, and ZeroU should all be in playoff with the other top ten teams in the country.

:thumb:

I'm not mad at KU, as I've stated in other posts/threads. Although I won't accept KU fans using this to argue that it proves their superiority more than a head-to-head game on a neutral field does. :)

I am raging against the BCS and particularly the Orange Bowl one who sucks the peniss. AFAIK, KU didn't put a gun to their head or blackmail them to pick them.

Not the point I was making. The point I was making is that, aside from one less loss, there are absoltely no reasons that you can justify a KU berth over MU. MU was better in the polls, played a MUCH tougher schedule and won head-to-head. All I was saying is that if there was a tradition/travelling fan factor it would be easier to swallow, but that's not the case here.

I can't wait to watch LSU beat up OSU and Georgia take Hawaii behind the woodshed.

My big disappointment is that Florida has to play Michigan. I'd prefer greater competition.

In a world of midgets, the dwarf is king...... or something like that.

Good point. Personally, I'm not mad at KU at all.

The BCS system is criminally unfair. Sad thing is that a true playoff is a complete and total pipe dream. Ain't gonna happen. There's too much money being made with the current system and no amount of sportswriter or fan bitching will change it.

I think you guys should be playing USC in the Rose bowl. If you wanna talk about stupid, how the **** is Illinois in the BCS

Mark May: Both these teams backed into the Championship game

:clap:

Just like the 06 Chiefs.
