Long shot possibility: Yeah, I get it, we suck. But, I would be remiss if I didn't post at least one positive for the week. thus far, we have lost 2 games to 2 ****ty teams; however, there is a flickering light shining through a pinhole. CSU - I hate to root for them, but (not likely but possible) if they can win the rest of the games on their schedule with the exception of BYU(7) and TCU(15) they go 10-2 with their only losses coming to 2 ranked teams. Toledo-if they can manage to beat Ohio State this weekend (not likely, but not entirely impossible) and not really any team of note left on the schedule which makes them 11-1 with OSU upset and 11-2 with loss at OSU.
Here comes the way outside chance. If we can manage to beat WYO and WVU we are 2-2 NC and then we beat ISU, KjSU, aTm, and one (hopefully 2) of either Kansas, Mizzou, OSU, or Nebraska we are go 6-6 (or 7-5), make a bowl game, and not be completely embarassed doing it.
All that said, I say we are in salvage mode at this point and there is an outside (waaaaaaaay outside) chance of not being the laughing stock of the big 12...if not all the BCS conferences. Just trying to be positive and hope for the best for my beloved buffs; as hard as it is I can't give up on them or lose ALL hope. What a cindella stroy that would be, huh?...
