Y'all need to read up on statistical significance vs practical significance. Pragmatically speaking, KU has a 0% chance of winning the Truckstop12. I mean this season is a hot mess. No big deal, the streak in my opinion just shines a bright light on what a crap league we're in. Bigger picture is what Turg is going to be left with when he takes over in a few months.

I would have thought you double down and say Weber would follow Self once again...

I think the loose in Allen.

I think they win the games with WVU and OSU

I think they go 2-2 in the games with ISU, OU, Baylor and TCU

For sure.
But no Udoka, De Sousa, Garrett and Vick for stretches.
If any team besides KU experienced those kinda losses, they would be .500 or worse in the B12.
Statie's only conference loses without LB2. They could be 10-1 or even 11-0 with himself.
and if we had our full lineup of Udoka, DeSousa, Vick and Garrett, we'd be 11-0.
and you'd be at best 10-1.

Hopefully while we're giving WVU payback on ESPN at 3 PM central, ISU is doing the same to ksu over on ESPN2.

1.5 games back with 6 to go (7 for KSU). There was a three game swing in 5 games last year, from 1 back to winning by 2, so there's still a lot that could happen. KSU playing well now doesnt guarantee they will play well in every remaining game of the season. We just have to handle our business.

Without Diarra, even more gets put on Barry Brown too. Downside is that he apparently has turned into this year's Javon Carter. Only player in the league that gets to play with 9 fouls while getting away with all the grabbing and slapping.

So what the hell happened to Diarra?

Having surgery for an injury to his hand. Not sure which form of livestock caused the injury, just saw the headline.

if you were Lon Kruger and ksu was a game up on KU in the race in the final b12 game would you throw it just to stop the streak?
Lon's gone full bush league before.

Lon has never won in the octagon of gloom. In fact, Bruceketball has been pretty dominant over bloomer.

Do you think KSU fans are more interested in KSU winning a share, or KU not winning a share?

It seems to me that KSU would really have to piss down their leg not to win a share.

As a KU fan, I couldn't care less - in complete survival mode. So, in my mind, there's really just a one-game gap.
