Praising Toledo's performance Saturday would be stupid: they just didn't play that well, capping off a season that was disappointing to, I would guess, almost all of their fans and players. Maybe that's a bitter pill, but it has nothing at all to do with whether KSU won 1 game or 11 this season.

9-4 with a BCS win over a ranked team would be disappointing exactly why?

Because your expectations were higher? If not, then congratulations on exceeding your expectations!

And UT would be considered the 4th best team in the MAC based simply on results behind NIU, KSU, and Ball St., not Ohio who at 4-4 would not be in the discussion. And while I understand you can't accept the idea that KSU would beat Toledo, there was one common opponent that one of us beat and the other didn't: Ball St.

I can accept the idea it could happen, just don't think it would be clear cut. Both good teams, I'd like to see the game. And yes, with Page and the head coach leaving I suspect most Rocket fans would confess, if their feet were held to the fire, to thinking 9-4 would be pretty darn good. I still do.thinking

Coming into the season, UT also lost 3 OL that had something like 120+ starts between them. That may have effected Red Zone TD and Short Yardage Efficiency as much as anything. Injuries for the 2nd year in a row also bit UT in their ay ziggy zoomba.
