I've never been big on labeling games like that unless they really are. I think the Royals are playing a must-win game.

This game might be as close as you get.

Its the first conference game at home in Arrowhead. You have two teams with their backs against the wall.

The next game is on the road against Arizona State in which I think the Vegas line will have it close to a pick em.

Although you have a senior team with experience who you hope can get through times like this, these are still challenging situations. Anybody's confidence can be shaken after losing three straight with the expectations that KU started the season with.

A win against TCU can give you some momentum going on the road to Tempe and then back for a bye week before they will be heavy favorites against Houston.

Conference play is already off to a weird start and after Saturday either Kansas State or Oklahoma State is going to have two losses.

Some were calling West Virginia a must win but I said I didn't think it was. My thoughts change for the TCU game.
