Probably depends on gelling as a team & learning new systems. Everyone has new players but not all have coaches too.

His point was that the rest of the B12 got better too. So our relative positions is approximately the same.

A lot of people saying B12 had a down year this last season. Wonder how much is based solely on Kansas.

Preseason rankings mean very little. The Big 12 may be that good, or they may

kimdaddy35

A few things to ponder. First, the Big 12 had a really down year last year.

kimdaddy35

5th out of 16 teams + Arizona is better than 5th out of 14 teams.
