fro daddy
All-Conference
Like I said before. Thanks. I'm happy to be here talking with ya Fro. I mean, It's not everyday a KU and Hawk Fan can talk sports, without getting tino a pissing match. I won't touch Basketball anymore, cause apparently in "Husker land" it's not a sport. So lets talk football.Hey no problem JGS30. Thanks for not laying an egg again in the NCAA tourney like you do every year. You saved the conference a lot of embarrassment. Plus you proved that even the retarded guy can get the girl everyonce in a while. No biggie for that OU thing either. It was nice to play for a conference championship in football. You guys know what that like.....ur.....wait.....sorry. Well back to basketball (even though this is a FOOTBALL BOARD) (note: Husker fan, if you don't already know this is a staple of KU fan. We will be talking football. They will know they have lost the arguement and then, out of the blue bring up basketball to try and rub that in your face)
You know, although i would gladly take a NCAA tourney championship at Mizzou, and as you have made painfully obvious that you are proud KU won. HOW do you really consider yourselfs to be some top 3 program. I do know the history, so PLEASE don't try to educate me. But compared to the other top programs and their champions KU just doesn't stack up. 2 times you have won the tourney in its current format (since sometime in the 1950's) and both times have been flukes really. Your 88 team were not only cheaters, but barely did well enought to even qualifly and for gods sake man they are called the "miricles". And this past years team, although very talented and highly ranked won because of what might just be the absolute biggest choke job of all time. But you hit your shots so i will give you that.
Anyway thanks for being the one KU fan on this board. And thanks for you insight. Also good luck this year and I to hope you are undefeated going into arrowhead...no wait,...that was a lie. But good luck this season.
How do you like MU's chances in Lincoln this year? I really hope ya'll lose, but I don't see how. Don't get a big head or anything Fro, but I will admit you're offense is pretty unstoppable...(except of course against OU and in the 2nd half of the Arrrowhead Armageddon game, but that's neither here, nor there). I just don't see many teams on your schedule beating you. I think you'll beat Illinois by 14 points and you'll get by Texas in Austin (as long as McCoy is the QB Texas is doomed for failure). So it's gonna come down to the Arrowhead War part 2), unless of course the huskers restore the much desired order. Thoughts on the game??? Prediction if you will???
JGS30,
Things are looking pretty good this year, but I try not to get too excited. (don't want a repeat of 04 or 06) I really think that MU will win at Lincoln this year. In 06 most of the team were Sophs. and it really showed. They hadn't really played in any big games and I think they came to NU with the BIG 12 North lead on the line and pissed down thier leg. But after last season and playing in some pretty big games, neutral and on the road, I feel good about the mindset. So then it comes down to the players. I think Mu clearly is better in many areas and have some favorable matchups. I don't see anything like last years 41-6 game. Nu can move the ball, But MU's redzone D is really good (as long as they pick up where they left off last year). I dont really like doing scores, but for you JGS I will.
I will say 35-24 MU.
BTW - Although I think KU's record will not be a good this year, I have said and will continue to say that KU is a good football team. Those who are writting them off are not looking at it without bias. Although I do feel you lost your best d-line man, best secondary player, best RB, TE, OL & WR, (god that seems like a lot) Mangino can coach and seeing KU play a few times last year they do have some guys in the stable. Depending on what happens over the next 2-3 years I think KU can be a team that annually will hover around .500 in conference with a few good years here and there. And hey, 2 years ago if someone would have said that I bet all of Lawerence would have been pumped.
P.S. Dont jump me husker board, but i did smile alittle when watching the KU/NU games last year.
God just saying that makes me want to vomit. <_<
