As bad as it was, what has really changed in the big picture? KSU should be favored in every game here out with the possible exception of the flood aggies at Ames. What KSU lost was the ability to throw away a game in which it would be favored and still make the Pepper in Arlington.
The OSU game is massive. Win and they once again will be in the drivers seat come November for Arlington. The loser is eliminated from the Championship game with two losses and no tie breakers.
The only thing that has changed for KSU is that they will likely need to win in Arlington (or have a lot of help nationally) to make the CFP. A 2 loss Big 12 team will likely not make the CFP.
