[CyTwins]

Half of the conference ranked and 70% of the conference receiving votes and this is supposed to be a down year for the Big 12? Damn

 

[Sigmapolis]

We have five pre-season ranked teams. So does the SEC.

50% versus 36%

 

[Gorm]

So...how did Urban vote?

 

[Shawker]

So...how did Urban vote?

I heard he chose to ignore it.

cue for yeahbuddy...... wait......

 

[ClonesFTW]

That is perfect, I'd prefer to be right out of the rankings to start the year. Some amount of respect but daring us to prove it.

 

[superiorcyclone]

I would prefer to be ranked #1 every year to start the season. That would mean we have an awesome team year in and year out.

That’d be all fine n dandy, except for ya know... that darn reality.

Would be fun to see a power every year.

Although being highly regarded doesn't make for enjoyable situations.

Last year's team was way more awesome to watch than any ISU team I can remember, and all in all they were pretty average.

Down as far as elites. That is different.

Why are so many people ranking KSU so high this year? Its because everyone watched the ISU/KSU game and saw the payroll.

 

[SCyclone]

I'd like to see our program at the point where we could tell Urban Meyer "Thanks, but.....no thanks."

Pass that blunt to me.
Why not get to a place where we poach a HC from Ohio State?
That better be good stuff.

 

[ComCY]

Pretty sure our program is there, no way Jamie would hire that mess.

Because they lost their head coach and aren’t a P5?

Funny, down here it's why are Cats ranked so low?

Didn't know that many KSU fans love rhetorical questions!

 

[surly]

Offseason is the time for rhetoricals soon forgotten after kickoff, I might add, K-State and other places.
