How does a game in 2008 expose a team's performance from 2007???

I am pretty sure that KU only lost 1 game last year, by one score to Mizzou, and then convincingly beat VT to win the Orange Bowl.

Sorry, I really just dont like KU. One of the kids on my floor is a big KU fan and wouldnt stop talking smack about them last year.

People were praising them for being so good last year to the point they thought they'd be great this year, but if you look at last year's schedule, the only teams they played with a pulse were Mizzou and Va tech...and that Va tech's offense was horrendous. Like the best BCS conference teams that they played after those 2 finished the season 7-6.
I want them to lose some this year so that people see that it was just a flash in the pan from the schedule, they didnt suddenly turn into worldbeaters.

But mainly i think I want my friend to shut up about :)them too

Until further notice, KU was 11-1 and Orange Bowl Champions in 2007. Did they benefit from a pretty weak schedule? Yes. However, they only lost to one team last year. That team, only lost to one team...OU.

true, i know. Maybe I should have said frauds for this year then? People were picking them to win the big 12 or even have a shot at a BCS championship...i really just thought i was a flash in the pan

People were also picking WVU to do the same. The Buffs beat them handily...

However, right now, KU is winning this game. KU is also undefeated in the Big XII right now. Unless KU loses today, you probably won't be able to call them frauds until at least Nov. 1.

I would not call losing to OU, TT, or Texas, this year, terrible. However, I would like to see KU take at least 1 of those. Also, KU will beat Mizzou in Arrowhead at the end of the season.

CU definitely is not much of a test. I also see KU losing at least 2 more games this year. However, those will be losses to two top 10 teams, not exactly an "exploiting" of KU Football.

The team had more weapons last year. Losing Talib hurts and KU has absolutely no running game this year. However, Mangino has them in position to be a perennial bowl team, as long as he is there. That is a lot for KU fans.

Indeed. I would like to see KU get to the next level, however, I will be more than satisfied if he keeps the Jayhawks in the postseason while he is there.

they start to legitimately get toward the next level, somebody will take a chance on Mangino, even though it's like electing McCain.
