The 'taters at #6? Whatever dude........

I guess textbook predictions require that a team like KU be relegated to the back of the bus until we prove otherwise.

I just don't see us finishing dead last. We've been recruiting well and then had the implosion last year. Maybe I'm a sunshine pumper but I just don't see KU being that bad.

depends how our injuries shake out. We've already been destroyed by them in the offseason.

i don't remember ever seeing a team fall apart before the season the way ours has, would love to see them use it as a rallying point, overcoming adversity and what not

OU got smashed with injuries last year, but all of theirs came during the season. At least we've got a little bit of time to try to recover and get things on track.

Ehhh... KU has the easiest schedule out there. They may not be the best team in the conference, but they'll place better than 12th in the standings.

It just sucks that we get the easy B12 schedule for one year, and our team falls apart. Bad, bad luck with the injuries.

That said, I'm cautiously optimistic. We underachieved a ton last year, we are due for another year of overachieving.

At least I hope so.

You have a good o-line and that should be huge. At the very worst you should be 9th. No way you loxe to CO ISU, and Baylor.

Yep, might be the worst in the conference(I think CU will be worse), but they won't finish last.

We're not as deep as I want us to be anymore at OL, but you are right.

I'm afraid we're going to get torn up at the LB and DL positions, though.
