Since 88-31-10 doesn't want to "just get along", I'll do a bit of a KSU football history lesson. KSU beat Syracuse (w/ Donovan McNabb, you heard of him?) in the 1997 Fiesta Bowl, part of the bowl alliance. The bowl alliance was what came before the BCS. KSU was the Big 12 representative, Syracuse was from the Big East. But I guess you wouldn't know that since you probably didn't follow football in those days. I applaud what KU did this year, they proved themselves to be a very good team. Great, no. But very good. KSU will probably be lucky to stay within 3 touchdowns of them this season. But the fact is that KU didn't even win their division of the Big 12 this past year. KSU has won the Big 12 North 3 times and the Big 12 once. So don't try comparing the two.
Here's a funny story. I have a couple cousins who are big KU fans. They didn't believe me when I pointed out that Mangino was an assistant coach at KSU. When they researched it and saw I was right, I think they about cried. |
Nice history lesson Bandit.
Did you get that off the "KSU Won An Alliance Bowl Game Before The BCS Was In Place" DVD?
