(about Kalani, ARod, Retzlaff, our lack of NFL talent & explosive playmakers) — my own doubts have likewise been turned on their head from week to week. So I can't be really all that hard on Josh & the perspective & vantage that he brings to the table.

For instance, during our game yesterday was the first time I could admit to myself that our team has a real shot at winning the Big12 Title game. And do so without any miraculous luck or injury factors going our way. On a neutral, with everything on the line — I'm confident we can chop down an Iowa St, a Colorado, or a KState. And it doesn't even have to come down to the wire, necessarily.

Our team is GOOD. They're beautiful. And they're worthy of real belief.
