The next 4 series of games will show how good this team is.

[Hovpen]

What, Binghampton and North Dakota State are two of those. Has NDS even had a practice outside yet? Shocks should sweep those two easy, if not, then someone is giving some players PT they shouldn't be getting. I take that back, Shocks should sweep no matter what players are in the lineup.

Not sure I follow you here Snap? Binghamton, NDSU, KU, and ORU?

[Hovpen]

KU and ORU yes. KU is a must win for state braggin rights

[WuDrWu]

I would feel pretty darned confident that we get state bragging rights no matter the outcome from 1 game that is going to mean a lot more to KU players than it does to our players.

Why is that exactly?

Why is that exactly?

History, facilities, talent, rankings, attendance, coach, All Americas, National Championships, Etc

In terms you might understand.....You claim it in basketball, we do in baseball.

[ShockerFever]

Only one poll counts, that is the one taken in Omaha in June.

I agree but like it or not, polls do influence the tournament committee when deciding NCAA regional hosts/seeds/national seeds. That's the way it works in baseball it seems..

Easy there, I'm not a kU fan by any means. Also isn't that Nat'l Champ singular not plural? Anyhow, I guess my point is that it is equally big for both teams really. WSU has a better program, etc but kU plays in a better conference.

Gramatically, I thought the plural fit better. You know what I meant either way.

Yes I know your feline background and I almost posted the all time record against KState in error because of that (49-24 btw).

You bcs homers really have to get off the "we are in a better conference" bandwagon. Just because you keep saying it doesn't make it so.......

Crappy in a tough conference doesn't, by itself, make you any better than crappy in a weak conference and vice versa.

Your comment makes about as much sense as "WSU is the better team but we wear purple".

Great. If we play 10 times we're still going to torch you and if you played in the National League West and we played 10 times, guess what?


911......

I'd love to see the Shocks play the Dodgers ten times (but my guess is that WSU would lose at least nine of them). I don't understand the last part of your post "if you played in the National League West and we played 10 times, guess what? 911...... " - are you saying KSU would be in trouble if they played the LAD?? :blink: :roll:

[WuDrWu]

I'm saying that no matter what league KState plays in, WSU is still a better team/program than they are. League affiliation, by itself, does not define a teams stature.


Saying "well Ku/Kstate play in a tougher conference" means almost as much as "our dirt is lighter than yours".

Well, I'm not a K-Stater either. I'm actually an alum of the same school as Gene. I agree that being a crappy team in a good league doesn't mean much. My point is that WSU is the better program so kU gets up to play them because of that, but kU being a Big XII team and an instate rival also makes it a big deal for WSU. I think it means the same for both and if you lose it's only a midweek game anyhow.

I echo the same sentiments as Doc. Who the hell cares if you're in a better conference? That's like in basketball you being South Florida, Penn State, Northwestern, Oregon State, etc. and saying "oooo, we're relevant because we're in a better conference." Yaaa.. okkk..

If the Big 12 is too tough for ya, then request a letter of eviction. Otherwise, just shut up.
