Dude who cares, it would be cool to pull the upset on them in front of a stadium full of their fans.

Now we playing the spoiler, we did not look good playing the front runner. But these games matter just not for us.

They still matter relative to a bowl invite. Weird, but win out and we play a game around Christmas

At BYU tho.

If we had taken just ONE of the four games we were up in the 4th quarter I think we’d have a shot.

Of course I’d like 3 more wins but being realistic?

Give me 2 with one of them vs Sanders and co. If beating ksu was a 95 out of 100 in terms of satisfaction in a season of fail, beating CU this year would be like a 91 for me given all the things they stand for.

I hear ya, especially regarding BYU on the road. Eff CU, tbh. Clown show.

It seems the 'bad luck' and poor execution have been addressed, at least for now. Grimes still needs to go.

I would LOVE (love is a strong word) for KU to beat BYU. Even if BYU goes 13-0, I feel BYU is not one of the 4 best teams in college football. CFP would rank them a top 4 team.
Right now, I'm not so sure I fear BYU on the road more than CU at "home".
BYU is a few plays away from being 5-4.
Beat SMU by 3
Beat Baylor by 6
Beat OKST by 3
Beat Utah by 1

Kickoff at 9:15 CST?
I'm getting too old for this.

I remember when Cascadia was like, join the PAC12, the games won't be any later, they'll not schedule Kansas late.

10:15 kick off and we didn't even need to join the PAC12 to get there.

Competitive disadvantage for road teams. Big 12 needs to fix that. That awful Nevada game last year was a tired team

Tampon Timmy called. Told me to tell you guys he says it's ok to stay up past your bed time on a Saturday night and if you need one - he will provide you with a tampon if you give him your address.
I would rather have a late start time on ESPN than a 6:30 or 7:30 start time on some bullshit "network" I don't have access to.

I’m not staying up til 1 AM to watch 3-6 KU football.

I'm going to predict if KU is within a touchdown or winning the game at whatever time you plan/ed to go to sleep, you will end up staying awake to watch the end of the game. I'm confident I would/will. Yes, I realize it is an hour earlier for me.
Right now, I fully expect my sleep pattern to be fucked up on Saturday. I've been up since 2:30am with a bad cough (that I have zero doubt I caught from a coworker) that I wouldn't be shocked if it turns in to pneumonia.

I have shit to do on Sundays these days and am too old to not feel tired the next day so nah.

If it was say KUFB in a bowl game, sure, I’d take the hit. But not for a 3-6 KU squad. I probably wont even watch the first half.

You're still a kid - but I admire your priorities are in order.
I probably won't watch the first half because I will probably be watching the second half of some other game.

On a related note, when was the last time a 3-6 team was only a 2.5 point dog against a 9-0 #6 team in the country?
I'm guessing either KU wins or BYU wins by plenty - which inevitably means BYU will win in a close game.

pdub = bad fan

I can still manage to stay up until midnight without it ruining my Sunday so I'll watch and cheer for them to have another big upset. KU ruining some other people's season is somewhat of a consolation from what the season should have been.

There is currently no way i'll be able to sleep past 6:30 Sunday AM.
It just is not possible.
So if the game is over at 1:30, I ain't actually falling asleep til 2.

4 and a half hours won't cut it.

There are a few sportscasters picking KU for the upset.

They had trouble v Utah but depantsed ksu pretty easily.
