I think at this point we're past the booing.
More apathy or acceptance.
If someone gave you 4/1 odds that KU would win 1 football game this year, would you take it?

The fact that the Big 12 sucks and this is a weird year are the only hope KU has of getting a W.
Also, I we're likely NOT going to play all the scheduled games, so that's also a factor.

I wouldn't be surprised if we beat someone like Iowa State or TCU because it's such a weird year...but this 'doesn't count' year looks more likely to be winless.

I can't believe I'm saying this but KU will get a W some how this year. Don't ask me how or where.

Same feeling. Last year they lost to TCU by 40, OU by 20+ and then they went on a roll with close loss at Texas and then beating Tech.
Side note. How lame is it that a roll for KU football is a close loss on the road and a home win.

According to Sagarin, the B12 has the same number (4) top 20 teams as the Big 10, twice as many as both the ACC and P12 (2), and two less than the SEC (6). If the B12 sucks, what's that say for the other "larger" leagues not named SEC?

sagarin, at this point in the season, and perhaps at any point during this particular season, is as useful as flymhk.com which is practically useless.

That's a deflection not an answer.

So was trying to use an algorithm to compare the big 12 to two conferences that haven't played a game.
