Mutual agreement: Hope K-State, Oregon BCS relevant in 3 weeks

by

It sure would be nice if this week’s conversations regarding K-State, Oregon and BCS standings matter as much in about three weeks as they do today.

- On that, I think there’s a “mutual” agreement.

- Three weeks from now, heck, Notre Dame probably is an afterthought, and Oklahoma is back near the Top 5.

- Wildcats/Sooners Part II should be a doozy in December…

- … even if I have to play the EA Sports game outright on my ol’ trusty PS2 instead of just simulating it.

- Back in the real world, I like that K-State fans, who love their Bill Snyder ways, will need to root for the anti-Bill in USC’s Lane Kiffin.

- It’s good to step out of a comfort zone once in awhile.

- Bill Self, who has ripped past teams in pre- and early seasons, is comfortable enough with this group that, at different times, I’ve heard him say his Kansas Jayhawks should be a much better shooting team than last year, and could be one of the best defensive teams he’s had.

- The Jayhawks were second in the Big 12 last year in field goal percentage (.472) and first in field goal percentage defense (.380).

- I mean, c’mon, that just screams “rich get richer.”

- Speaking of, a $2000 tip at a strip club? On a $4400 tab? On a company credit card? By the director of video operations?

- Make it rain, Mizzou. Make. It. Rain.

- I personally don’t care about the bill. It was taken care of by the guy responsible for the charges, but it is just another semi-bizarre page to the Tigers athletics story so far this year.

- Kind of intriguing to think it might be up to Frank Haith, who isn’t a stranger to stories involving strip clubs, to help calm some things down.

- I’m looking forward to the Missouri/Florida and Missouri/Kentucky matchups — especially in February when the Tigers have the Gators and Wildcats back-to-back. Lord.

- Back-to-back games of Brady Quinn starting for the Kansas City Chiefs.

- Yep.

- I’ve heard Bob Fescoe and Josh Klingler discuss this regularly: Under a game-by-game microscope, I never want my team to lose. Ever. I hate losing more than I like winning.

- But, say it happens, fine. You deal with the aftermath of losing; you sure as hell don’t waste time preparing for and shaping your future around it.

- Just the thought of a player, coach, staff or organization entertaining such a philosophy makes me want to vomit…

- … after punching them.
