I think you guys are being a little generous to our opponents. IHMO, our
chances of winning the remaining games:

OU: 10%, they're still much better than us
KU: 65% I didn't think they were as good as advertised and after yesterday's
TT-KU game, I'm sure of it.
KSU: 85% They're not very good.  They're REALLY bad on defense, maybe the
worst in the Big XII.  Dead last in Total D in the Big XII.
CU: 95% Fighting ISU for the worst team in the North.   Worst offense in the
Big XII and in the bottom half in Total D.

I've said 7-5 from the beginning of the year and it's looking pretty good.
(However, I thought we'd beat VT and I thought CU would be better)

I really think 8-4 is a possibility, bordering on a probability.  Definitely
a better team this year IMO.
