Kstate Baylor

As long as there's a .000001% chance we don't make the championship game.... I'm nervous as can be. I've been a Cyclone fan for 50 years..... I take nothing for granted after all the kicks to the groin.

What doesn't seem possible about this?

Of course it is possible, but still highly unlikely. That is the point. Stop being so negative about it. We are in sole possession of first place and can win outright by beating WV.

Doesn't even matter. We're gonna skullf*** the couch burning trash bags next weekend. Wanna be the top dog? Leave a trail of bodies in your wake.

 

[mred]

So are the chances really 99% because these are entirely possible outcomes especially since 2020 DGAF.

Good question. It all comes down to the odds of Texas/Kansas being cancelled, because there's no way Texas loses that game if it's played.

I think TCU beats OSU, Texas beats both Kansas schools, and we beat WVU.

Actually I keep forgetting that OSU has looked pretty marginal lately. TCU might be finding some things.

I get it, we are Iowa State fans and have gotten kicked in the nuts often. But what you're saying is pretty unwarranted in terms of Iowa State losing to WVU as 'fairly possible'.

We all celebrated like we won the damn thing this week. The players also did. Our best defensive player is playing hurt. It's not an unimaginable thing if the Iowa State players come out extremely flat against a good team that has 3 weeks off. And none of us could blame them.

I would love for them to just boat race WVU to make no bones about it who was the best team throughout the entire regular season.

Oklahoma State has looked bad, but Chuba hasn't been playing. I wonder if he will be back next week.

Can someone explain why a Kansas State win would have clinched for us?

Short version:

ISU is in unless there's a 3-way tie situation (which only happens if ISU loses to WVU and OU\OSU win out) in which the tie is broken by record against #4 and that #4 is WVU.

KSU winning would have eliminated those scenarios.

Send the Austin’s Lake Travis football team to play Kansas if Texas uses the Covid card to opt out!

 

[Aclone]

Can someone explain why a Kansas State win would have clinched for us?

I assume because it would have put them in a position to have a tiebreaker over one of the other contenders.

Dude, just stop.

Matt Campbell just showed me that this isn't the Iowa State of old. Have faith, we're headed to Dallas!

 

[isuno1fan]

Is K-State or Kansas really gonna beat Texas? No shot

KState will if they play. Just hope the KU TX game happens.

 

[andybernard]

Could someone explain something that's already been explained on this thread and many other threads at least 200 times? Thanks.

 

[Aclone]

Frankly, that seems fairly possible. OU and OSU aren't losing next week. Texas is a ****** team who has nothing to play for and stupid Kansas State will have those stupid linebackers back next week. And if Texas loses to Kansas State, there's no way they play Kansas.

Take a deep, cleansing breath. Put down the nut cup. Walk away from it. You don’t need it any longer.

 

[isuno1fan]

Texas has to beat KU

Texas has to PLAY KU....Covid could screw that up.

Texas' players were all probably at the bars in Austin last night and tonight partying it up now that they have nothing to play for..... they'll likely get Covid at this point.

She needs a nut cup?

Just heard this stat: Baylor's win snapped a 21-game losing streak when trailing by double digits at halftime.

Of course it did.
