BCS

Wow. Virginia Tech in the Orange Bowl on January 3. We missed out on our shot at a Big 12 Championship, but we still get a chance to redeem the 1968 team. Awesome.

Hey, I'm all sorry and stuff for Mizzou, but I don't need to listen to the nationals trash my team. We carried that undefeated target in a BCS conference twelve weeks. Everyone knew we had injuries and no one made excuses. We played just three games in Lawrence in October and November. We ended with a virtual road game at Arrowhead and Mizzou nailed us. Good for them. We lost and we assumed our best bowl opportunity was the Cotton Bowl. It started to shake out a little different during the week, so Mizzou knew the score going into last night's game. Again, I'd still trade the Orange Bowl for a chance to have played in San Antonio last night.

Bottom line. We had a great season. We're going to take our BCS bid and enjoy it. This is a chance to make a statement for next year.
