Could Kansas actually win the Big 12?

I'm probably getting way ahead of myself here, but...

I'll first answer my own question: probably not. However, in looking at their next few games, I see something very interesting. It is very likely that 3 of their next 4 opponents COULD be undefeated when KU plays them.

This week: Duke (3-0).

10/1: Iowa State (3-0; plays Baylor at home this week).

10/8: TCU (2-0; plays SMU this week, OU 10/1).

10/15: OU (3-0; has 4 straight weeks of KState, TCU, t.u., and KU -- not an enviable stretch of games).

Let's say for the sake of argument that KU wins all these games, including over a then-undefeated OU team. Where do you put them in the poll? I'd say top 5 for sure. Dog the Big 12 all you like but based on this year's results so far, that is a decent SOS right there.

So what happens after that? They have to go to Waco, Lubbock, and Manhattan. They have t.u. and OkSt at home. Even a loss in that group shouldn't hurt them. Once they're top 5, they'll be in the playoff discussion and someone will have to knock them out of that position. The thing is, that if OU can make the playoffs by winning the Big 12, even with a loss, can Kansas?

Probable? No, but interesting to think about.

For the sake of argument, if they win out they will win the big 12. Really insightful thread you have going here

BDF referees will never let that happen.

Actually, maybe they will. Sip and Land Thief are leaving the conference.

Who would the Big 12 referees prefer to win? NO WAY they want Texas or OU to win.

No. Sark in the dark has already been given the big wtf crown for 2022/23.

I think you need to reread what I wrote and be careful about insulting when YOU misunderstood or didn't bother to finish the sentence.

Well for the sake of argument, if they make the playoffs they will be in the playoffs.

I just think it's a really stupid hypothetical to pretend Kansas is going to win a bunch of games. But if we're going to go big let's go really big

No.

13-0 Kansas....if that included a win over an eventual-ACC-champion Duke team, they'd have a case for the playoffs.

But who are we kidding? BDF is Pac-12'ing its way out of the playoffs. Teams are not seen as strong, and OOC is a problem for the frontrunners:

Kansas OOC: Duke, UH (now unranked), Tennessee Tech
Okie Lite OOC: Central Michigan, Arizona State, Ark-Pine Bluff
E'rrybody else: at least one WTF loss (yes, Baylor, BYU is a WTF loss)

Oct 15 - Nov 5 is the three-game stretch that will tell the tale: at Okie, at Baylol, vs Okie Lite.

ESPN FPI has them losing all the rest of their games.

And on the other end, they have t.u. winning the rest of their games.

This is no place for reading or logic. This place is only for knee-jerk reactions and ****-posting to get blue stars.

Wrong...

UT v KU: 16 and 4 (KU has only 2 wins in the modern era of college football)

App St versus Collie Station: 1 and 0

Kansas has a really good QB and is well coached. They would beat A&M.

Lol! Maybe so! But of course this coming from someone who know what it's like to get beat by Kansas. Which explains why y'all ran from your game from them in 2020. Wouldn't want to make 3 years in a row! Lol

Keep in mind that their clock keeper gave them extra time to kick a last second FG in 2020 or they'd have lost to KU football at home two times in a row…

Yep I remember that! But that was in 2019. The game I'm referring to was the 2020 "Covid" game sip backed out of cause they were too Skeeered to play the Kansas Jayhawks! Guess I can't blame em.

Silly Draggie, entire basketball team/staff was on covid quarantine protocols. Half had it.

That was just a regular season game.

Worse was in 2021 when Draggies got scared and pulled out of Gator Bowl avoiding a beatdown by Wake Forest. All those senior players disappointed. Ya'll should have taken notice then that Jimbo was a fraud.

But at least you know it now.

Nope. I'll give one thing, you are consistently wrong. Sippy couldn't stand the thought of dropping another game to KU (you know…you're "real" rival). So you backed out and used Covid as an excuse. So pathetic! Nice try at spinning it though.

As far as wake forest goes…Thank God we didn't play that game!! Lol. Couldn't care less what the excuse was. Down to our 3rd qb, it would have been uglier than the homeless living on the 40 acres! Haha!

Everyone outside of Collie Station and Draggieland knows Jimbo was scared. Ya'll should have fired him then. Now you have to sit around all year and wait for him to do someone else as pathetic.

Oh wait, App St happened....at home...in Draggieland.

Weak response. C'mon Kyle, you can do better than that. No?

Definition of Irony: sip giving advice on dealing with coaches. I.e., strippers, monkey poles, alcoholics, hookers, and titty twisters from mensa. Could name so much more but it wouldn't compute with you. Nice job hiring these clowns. Well y'all do actually have a lot of experience recently since you fired a legend. Why? Because "weeere Tesuss!!!"

Yall are a joke outside of Asstin and your 300million $ business partner ESiPN who strokes you're little wieners any time they get the chance. sip is just another (less than) average football program.

I still can't believe it...KANSAS!! Bwahahahaha!
