I have to say that I’m a little ashamed of the fans back then to do that on an opponent’s field. Besides throwing batteries at opposing fans, this has to be one of the most disrespectful things one can do.

At the risk of sounding like a complete hypocrit, that still was pretty cool…..

because clearly none of those games would be a favorite of mine and I’m going to vote instead for the 1987 Toilet Bowl Tie…17-17

I was they guy declaring you may have won the battle, but we’ve won the war and citing the overall series mark

to be at the 2002 game. I remember it being 43-0 at halftime and telling my buddy I had never seen a team put up 40 points that easily. That was the pinnacle of domination over the Flaw on the Kaw.

I remember reading post after post on the KU rivals board about how Whittemore was going to tear Kansas State up, and that this was the year KSU was going down, etc.

I don’t think Brittlemore made it out of the first quarter. Maybe, but he didn’t make it out of the first half, and KSU rolled that game.

What made that game special was the sheer hubris of KU fans thinking that because they had an average quarterback, they would roll on to victory over that particular KSU squad. The ’03 Cats were possibily the best all-around unit that KSU had after the ’98 team, and there was no way KU was even remotely good enough to beat KSU.

Also, before the game, the Jayhawks went out to midfield before the game and jumped up and down on the PowerCat. It was nice to see them get their asses kicked for that.

And it will be for the next victory. To be honest, I have never felt the need to beat KU any more than I do now. Since I’ve only really been a KSU fan since 1996, I didn’t feel the rivalry. K-State was going to win the football game and KU was going to win the basketball games.

The two units I identified as rivals early on were:
1.) Nebraska
2.) The OU band (esp. since I had to sit next to them in 1996) even though I was a Sooner fan of sorts at the time.

I voted other. As the 99-00 was my favorite. The club level had just opened and it was my 5th year in school. My friends brother had bet on the cats and it was a very large spread 20+ plus in favor of the cats. If memory serves me well, the Cats weren’t covering so even though the game was a blow out each TD was important to our little group, and we cheering like crazy as well as drinking as any good college kid would in the stadium. I think he won like $5,000 in the end and we all continued the celebration in the ’Ville.

I was there in ’82 when we came out in those awful gray uniforms under the temporary lights and beat them on TBS. I remember Mike Wallace hauling in rainbows and running past the CBs. I also enjoyed the Chad May victory at KU in 94. All the firsts we were achieving were very exciting to someone who suffered through the 70s and 80s.
