I've no idea what KS opponents records are...or OU's for that matter.
The whole season..though, I got the sense that KU's schedule was very weak. And didn't think they deserved their ranking.
That being said...they played a decent game against MU.
No matter what happens....this year, there will be someone who thinks they got the short end of the stick.
FWIW-
You are correct. Kansas did not play a particularly tough schedule. Missouri was their toughest opponent this year.
I wasn’t at all believing that that they were the legitimate #2 team.
But they did play credibly and I’m sorry that they lost. They will receive a very nice bowl bid and in the long run, this year will only help their recruiting efforts.
Kansas has been building up to this for several years now. Two years ago, they got a surprise invite to the PlainsCapital Fort Worth Bowl where they beat up on a supposedly better Houston team.
Step by step, Mangino and his staff seem to be doing it all just fine.
