Still a bit of a longshot, but if we win out we have a great chance. That West Virginia loss is really haunting us.




Don't worry about the mules, just load the wagon!!

I did a back-of-the-envelope rough analysis using Sagarin's predictor and it basically comes down to 4 games.

In this round, we won, KSU lost and Tech and Baylor will likely win. Likely records by the end of this week:
KSU: 11-4
Tech: 11-4
KU: 10-5
Baylor: 10-5

Saturday is the first place where Sagarin predicts movement. KSU beats Baylor, Tech wins @TCU, KU wins @OSU. Updated standings:
KSU: 12-4
Tech: 12-4
KU: 11-5
Baylor: 10-6

Next week, KSU takes a hit: KSU loses @TCU, Tech beats Texas, KU wins @OU, Baylor beats OU.
Updated standings:
KSU: 12-5
Tech: 13-4
KU: 12-5
Baylor: 11-6

Final games: KSU beats OU, Tech loses @ISU, KU beats Baylor in AFH.
Final standings:
KSU: 13-5
Tech: 13-5
KU: 13-5
Baylor: 11-7

Of those games, the KSU loss @TCU is the closest, followed by Tech losing @ISU, then Baylor losing @KSU and @KU (in that order...least likely to most likely).

That's the path, folks. We just need to put our heads down, get to 13, and hope that it's enough.

NIL and the portal have ruined college sports.
