Which is funny because SDSU plays them in 2012! Of course by that time Kansas will have righted the ship. Right? No takers on that?

Not really. In terns of football this year, Kansas is a have not. They had a season go way south on them last year. Their stars graduated, with the coaching turmoil, players quit and recruiting came to a complete standstill. Eventually, the coach was fired. You now have a new, young coach trying to duct tape the program back together. They appear to be much further back than I imagined. They may only win one or two games all year. Conversely, you have NDSU, a very good 1-AA program. If there were to be a 1-AA beating a 1-A, this would be it. And with all that, the win is still considered an upset.
In terms of football, Kansas is not remotely a have. They pretended for a couple of years, but they are hardly a have. In fact, during the recent conference realignment fiasco, Kansas, the big basketball power that they are, was just about orphaned. None of the real haves gave two cents about the University of Kansas. They still don't.
