ku still has to play ksu. i'd rather them lose that one.

why would you almost guarantee KSU a conference championship? i gave up the hope i previously posted for you

milkman:

EVERYBODY understands why some of you think a KU loss helps us. But the bottom line is that I don't think we have a legit chance of catching them anyway. As such, we need our primary recruiting rival to lose.

ahhh, i'm not looking that far ahead to be honest with all the things that need to happen for us to win the big 12. all i root for is for us to win, tu to lose. we can then do what we need to do in both tourneys. we already lost to bu and that one was the one that cost us.

It might not be a realistic chance, but it is a chance none the less. I would rather have a chance at a championship, AND BEAT TEXAS, than have them lose one game that in a couple of years no recruit will remember.

no letters at random...not everybody does

this thread hasnt been about recruiting at all with the exception of about 2 posts

if that was the case this thread would be completely different

blah blah blah

go tu go tu go tu

What are the odds of us running the table? I put it very low. That is the only way we pass ku.

I do put the odds of us losing perhaps 1 or 2 more games high, including the one at the sips house. If we want to finish ahead of them for 3rd, they probably need to lose this.

I root for ku. Plus I can't stand the horns anyway.

And the point is ultimately this. You guys keep saying you would rather us take care of our own business and you don't want to hurt recruiting. If we beat tu in Austin and then turn around and beat KU we are making a HUGE statement to all those recruits. IF we lose in Austin then it doesn't matter the outcome of this game because all those recruits you speak of will think we can't win on the road.

dp, but this thread is still stupid.

tough to go for the sips, but it could help us to get to the top of the Big XII.

This sucks. I don't know what to say.

what does dp mean?

macaggie...thank you

someone actually gets it

it means double post

ITSGST, I understand why some might not want to root for t.u. under this circumstance, in this particular basketball game. A very good argument can be made for both sides. But the fact that you said you would NEVER root for t.u. even if it would mean a championship for A&M is devoid of intelligence.

haha, a few glasses of wine in me. i've had this debate with a sip friend. i would be very hard pressed. there are plenty of things you can point to over a season as to why we wouldn't have won a championship in a certain year. we have no outcome on the sport usually, so i choose not to root for texas. if it meant a national championship, it would be something it would be something to think about for me, but don't know how they could help us there. it is a principle of the thing for me.

Alright well now that a few of you get it i feel like my work here is done

im gonna get to studyin and watch the end of the game

have a good night thanks and hook em

Really? Thats incredible.

If a tu win would guarantee us a national championship for some off reason, i would be paint my body head to toe in that putrid orange and run naked through the streets.

Seriously, yes they are a rival and i hate them.

But i still think some of you would be rooting for osama bin laden college for terrorists if they played tu

if we lose in Austin, we will not finish ahead of them.

with a tu win we have a better chance of finishing 1st or 2nd in conference than we do if they lose. if KU wins it's KU or KSU for first place, and likely 2nd place.

I would immediately root for the other team if I saw shank in the streets naked. I almost threw up reading the post.

If we want to have any chance to play in Houston, we need the sips to lose.

They win, we will be playing in Detroit or some crap like that.

I would rather play close to home in the NCAA than win a meaningless regular season title.

We have no way to win the conference unless K state implodes...

I hate tu, unless it benefits A&M. I am more for the benefit of A&M than the detriment of tu.

By implode you mean lose to KU at the Phog, texas at home, and maybe at Baylor? That really isn't an implosion, but a couple of really good teams, one of whom will be looking to kill the wildcats. It's not impossible. You play the game to win championships, not to play for 3rd.

i am probably equal bits of both of late. that's not so hard for me to admit. living in austin has gotten me. people all over the country hate a team such as notre dame and have no affiliation. i went to a&m and my team to hate is texas.

losing 2 out of @BU, @KU, and tu is not an implosion.
we may lose again so we may need more help, but I support our team and would like to think that our team will win.

well, we shouldn't have imploded against tt, ksu, and lose at home to baylor.

And now we are playing well and have a chance IF KU loses. If KU wins we basically have no chance.

But the fact of the matter is, sometimes those streaks happen. We should know best that at any time a team or two can sneak up on you, so it shouldn't be hard to think that KSU could lose like that as well.

We screwed up, and there is a slight chance that we can make amends for it by taking care of business and getting a little help along the way.

wow can we say it again? "Bobinator was right", dumbest fans ever, I'm pulling for UT extra hard just to spite you morons here

I would rather lose the Big XII than have t.u. win any more games.

the morons are the people that are only wanting tu to lose because they are tu. there are pros and cons of them winning or losing, but just because they are tu isn't enough when a win benefits the ags

just a difference of opinion. i would rather ku lose the 2nd conference game of the year or the third. why can't i root for them to lose to a team like isu rather than texas. we shouldn't have blown the game against baylor. then we wouldn't be worried about it. i look at it as a whole, i don't want help from texas. it's just an opinion. call it stupid as i'm sure you will, it's consistent though.
