Why is Kansas in a BCS conference for football? Just because their B-Ball is good doesn't mean squat. I found this thread on the Kansas Rivals board and some of their fans are pissed that they have such a hard OOC schedule. They play Toledo, Tulsa, and Northwestern for chryst sakes! I know Toledo scares the hell out of most teams given our success against schools like Purdue, Penn State, Minnesota, and Pittsburgh.

Don't forget Dook! They can't even get the cheerleaders to show up for the games!
Average attendance = 5! :chair:

:laugh: To build tradition, you have to go out and play the big boys. Those are better teams than the cupcakes that KU usually schedules, but still. How about a team like Colorado State who plays Colorado, USC, Minnesota, and Miami of Ohio (the last three all won 10+ gms last year) this year?

Seems like Kansas may be a team on the rise, they had a *decent* year last season, but they should probably stick to playing cupcakes and build more confidence in their program.

Kansas has a football team? LOL :laugh:
Seriously, I think Kansas is a team on the rise. They've got a great QB in Whittemore, a good coach in Mangino, and they play in the very over-rated Big Fraud (12).

Blind squirrel --> acorn
Tech has won 14 of the last 16, holds a considerable all-time lead.... and frankly... as far as all-time programs go mentioning Duke in the same sentence as Georgia Tech (Top 10 all time) is blasphemy.

Whittemore was a senior last year. They will be playing a new QB this year.

Really? I was thinking he was a junior last season.

No, he was a senior. Kansas fans think he has a shot at playing in the CFL this fall.
