"Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime." - Mark Twain "Innocents Abroad"
This was pointed out by a fellow JayhawkSlant poster.
7-2 (0-0) mOO record thru FRIDAY DEC 8 2023
8-12 (0-0) mOO record thru TUESDAY JAN 31 2024
To elaborate a bit on this...
Saturday Dec 9 - lost at home to KU, beginning the death spiral
1-10 over the last 11 games, starting with the loss to KANSAS
11 games left this season.
Here is their remaining schedule per secsports.com
8 games against teams with winning records overall.
Their best chances for wins are against Arkansas (play home & away) and
Vanderbilt.
But the Vandy game is at Vandy, so if both teams enter it winless in conference, the odds look to be that Vandy is finally going to have an SEC win, maybe their only one of the season. mOO?
How they have fallen from respectability since leaving the Big 12.
I am so glad they hired Dukie Quin Snyder in 2000 instead of proven Tulsa head coach Bill Self!
