Not very likely for KU. The AD wants butts in the seats. Not a bad crowd 46,000+ last night when the temps are 90 degrees at game time and many of the out-of-town students are home on holiday break.

The Big 12 TV situation got a bit better already, due to the programming hole left by the Big 10.

Of course, at the rate the Big 12 moves, they might have their own network by 2015.

If they get lucky and play well 10 and 2 is not out of the realm of possibilities. Last year, KU was better than their record. They went 6-6 and lost just about every game by about 2-3 points.

Central Michigan
-WIN 27-17
SE Lousiana
-WIN 49-10
Toledo
-WIN 34-24
Florida International
-WIN 34-17
at Kansas State
-WIN 17-14
Baylor
-WIN 24-13
at Colorado
-WIN 17-14
at Texas A&M
-10-93 LOSS
Nebraska
-0-63 LOSS
at Oklahoma State
-WIN 31-28
Iowa State
-WIN 21-10
Missouri
-WIN 24-21 OT

KU could potentially be 7-0 going into the Texas A&M game before they get whacked, haha. Glorious.

So far I have been way off. Kansas is better than I thought they'd be. No close games, all blow outs thus far. I understand that they have not played any difficult competition yet, but we are looking good.

Kansas 45
Toledo 13..and that is including a late meaningless TD from Toledo with all the hacks in

If KU can squeek out a win at K-State, it is very possible that KU will be 7-0 going into the A&M game.

Yeah, KU is looking better than anyone thought. I still say KU may lose at Texas A&M, but predicting a 93-10 loss was moronic. Also, do you still see KU losing to the Cornhuskers? I still think KU wins that one.

Let's not get carried away. The offense gave up a bunch of sacks last night, Todd Reesing's completion percentage was atrocious, and the receivers had the dropsies come back in full force.

We're going to have to play a hell of a lot better than we did last night if we want to win in Manhattan, no matter how bad KSU may be.

Last I checked, the Cornhuskers don't play in Manhattan, KS.

Gee, really? Obviously, the two statements weren't related.

The first true benchmark of the season will happen in Manhattan, and if the Hawks play like they did last night, that one will be a struggle. As bad as they may be, KSU is still better than Toledo, and Mangino's road record is absolutely atrocious. Without being able to win that game, nothing else the rest of the season is certain, IMO. Certainly not Nebraska.

I'm sorry, but what indicators do you have that KSU is bad? I think the KSU-KU will be a good game, but believe KSU will win by 7-14.

Kansas is currently has the #1 scoring defense in the country, the #4 scoring offense in the country, and is #1 in SCORING MARGIN by a landslide. K-State is in for a let down after a big win.

KU 27
K-State 14

haha, you never know. Every game in is winnable. I still think 9-3 is a good possibility with having a shot at 10-2. KU just needs to prove that they can win road games, and not piss it down their leg in the last few minutes on the road.

ya I'm looking forward to seeing how this season pans out now that we will face some real competition

I am interested to see how KU's pass defense will hold up. Last year we were dead last in pass defense. This year we are 3rd in the country. I know we have been playing patsies but that is already an improvement regardless of who you are playing.

This game will either shut me up or get me ranting even more about the hawks.
