It feels like a lifetime ago, but KU delivered the Shiv In The Belly Loss II, back when ISU Football still had shots at North titles.
You know ABC has sent the whole week profiling every dang player and coach, digging through whatever KU calls a trophy case (probably hidden by the stack of Big 8 Basketball banners Allen Fieldhouse doesn't even have room to hang), building up a reel of tender moments to roll into not just the game against ISU, but the game against Mizzou next week and OU in the championship game. Just like they did before ISU collapsed against Mizzou and KU back when we were young and a little less bitter.
Wouldn't it be appropriate if ISU knocked KU from the Hot Team Of The Moment Mantle?
I would laugh for days.
Besides, come New Year's Weekend, only about 500 more KU fans will fly to a bowl game than ISU fans will. The Jayhawks play at Boston College on the 5th. You can't risk missing the game on the telly stuck in some airport in some warm-weather city. Where's the fun in that?
