Things I do not care about:
- Twitter shitfights between KSU & ISU fans
- KU being ranked
- KU getting Gameday
- Iowa State’s black uniforms
- Any garbage stat KU fans are putting out there about BCS bowls
Things I do care about:
- Watching
@KStateFB
beat Iowa State on Saturday
Hey
@Big12Conference
… if you guys want to acknowledge that the KSU-Tech game is the most compelling conference matchup next week and move us to a 2:30 or 7pm slot, that would be cool
I’m sure 1989 Bill Snyder would have loved a $450 million dollar stadium, legalized pay-for-play, access to the transfer portal, and not having to deal with Oklahoma and peak-era Nebraska and Colorado. But yeah, the KU job is more difficult 🙄
Three SEC teams, a 10-win Louisville that’s playing for the ACC title this weekend, AND undefeated and potentially playoff-bound UW… not bad for someone who was supposed to sell insurance after this season 😬
Auburn, Kentucky, Louisville, Missouri, and Washington are possible destinations to watch for Kansas State QB transfer Will Howard,

reports.
Story:
So Avery is getting hit up by a Heisman finalist, CFB Hall of Famer in Darren Sproles, and 15-year NFL vet and former top 5 draft pick in TNew. No pressure 😂

But seriously, we need you

Guys, KU flipped double birds right at the
@ncaa
, convinced the FBI that its program was victimized by Adidas, and got to propose ‘alternate resolutions’ after being found guilty of FIVE Level 1 violations. You really think this is getting vacated?
This is what
#KStateFB
fans have wanted for years. Nothing unrealistic like recruiting with Alabama, Clemson, etc. Just solid classes comprised of kids who were sought after by other P5 programs. CKs second class is shaping up to be objectively good. Keep at it
#EMAW
Remember when Miss State fans and the SEC media were saying
@KStateFB
wouldn’t be able to hang in Starkville due to the humidity? Yeah, that made me laugh too
K-State's four highest paid assistants - Messingham, Klanderman, Riley and Stanard - make a combined $1,639,979. OU's DC Alex Grinch makes over $1.7million. So, again, if you want to fire everyone to bring in "guys with P5 experience," who's writing the GD checks?
I don't want Bruce's head on a stick. He's done plenty for the program. But any K-State fan clinging to him for whatever reason has to ask himself/herself this question: Would ANY coach get another year after stringing together conference records of 3-15, 4-14 and let's say 3-15?
According to the SRS metric that weighs margin of victory and SOS, 2007 KU finished with a 14.45. The following
#KStateFB
teams finished with a better SRS rating:
2012 (16.92)
2003 (15.74)
2002 (16.49)
2000 (15.72)
1999 (15.11)
1998 (18.39)
1997 (15.43)
1995 (15.13)
1969 (15.30)
And what a shocker. Kansas City's K-State Sports Network affiliate
@610SportsKC
is talking about mask mandates in NYC. It's amazing how little that station values its "partnership" with Kansas State
Do we really live in a world in which our guys can lose head-to-head vs. Oklahoma State AND Texas, potentially finish with the same conference record as those two, and somehow win the tiebreaker against both?
Reminder that the NCAA started allowing teams to play a 12-game regular season schedule in 2006. That gave KU the ability to add an extra non-con pud to their 07 slate
If Snyder had an extra bodybag game during his first tenure, he would have won 12 games in 97, 98, and 99
Last five KSU events I’ve attended:
5) FB: Skylar injury vs. SIU
4) FB: first home loss to ISU since 2004
3) FB: loss to Baylor
2) BB: blown 20-point lead against KU
1) BB: OU first win in Bramlage since 2012 (which I also attended)
I hate everything
As an outspoken Bruce hater a couple seasons ago, I have to shut up for the foreseeable future. This was what I and the rest of the irrational “Cult Of Frank” fans wanted. Winning 20+ games, defending the OOD, participating and winning in the NCAA tournament
#KStateMBB
#EMAW
Never been a Bruce apologist, but I have to say this is his best coaching job since he arrived. No interior presence/depth. Lost his PG at the beginning of conf play. Won 20+ gms, finished in the upper half of the Big 12 and is going to the dance. Well done

Every student in Kansas deserves a world-class education, but they can't get that if we don't fully fund our schools -- including special education programs. Let's ensure our students have the resources they need to succeed.
My dad famously wore this like a toga and ran around our subdivision when we beat KU in the Big 8 tournament in 1993. I would 100% carry on the legacy if we pull it off tonight. Sub-zero temps be damned

Are KU fans bitching about officiating when the free throw (23) and total foul (21) counts were even and their guys shot damn near 60% from the floor? GTOOMF
What does the athletic dept want to prove? ALL
#KState
fans and alums denounce KU year-round for having a dirty program. Now the administration turns on its own by censoring students the one time they can needle KU with a national audience watching. Why be sanctimonious now?
I've said it countless times. I was young and dumb when Darren Sproles was at K-State. The sports gods delivered another elite back to MHK. Definitely have to appreciate this type of talent when it rolls through

The NFL is the greatest league in sports because of the parity. The last team drafts first, the first team drafts last. Not allowing Josh Allen, the best player in today’s game, to touch the ball in overtime is one thing the
@NFL
must fix.
@ShutdownFullcas
I’ve lived in Kansas City my entire life and have driven on this street countless times… but it hits different after last week’s episode
This genuinely sucks. Their alums dumped millions into renovating Reser Stadium. Thought the PAC 12 would be around long term and the P5 status would still be there. Could just as easily been K-State. Just sucks for them and the sport of college football 😿
Michigan State is set to hire Jonathan Smith as its new head coach, sources tell

Smith, whom

What a noble move to call Wazzu and Oregon State administrators to tell them “sorry” as he Scrooge McDucks into the bank vault that ESPN threw at his conference for broadcast rights
I’m not saying I’m overly invested, but I’ve convinced myself:
1) Brad comes home
2) the NCAA laughs at KU’s “alternate resolution” and hits them with a multi-year postseason ban and Self gets a show-cause
This is modern day Pontiac, MI. We deserve to be on the right end of it

So will the Coordinator of Officials be on the Big 12 teleconference to address why a pancake block was called a personal foul and why a
