Open Game Thread: K-State vs. Oklahoma
Kansas St. Wildcats at Oklahoma Sooners, Oct 31, 2009 6:00 PM CDT
Who: K-State at Oklahoma
When: October 31, 2009 | 6:00 p.m.
Where: Norman, Okla. | Gaylord Family - Oklahoma Memorial Stadium (82,112)
Media: 1350 KMAN | FSN
Your Big 12 North-leading Kansas State Wildcats travel to Norman today to take on Oklahoma. With a late kickoff, feel free to use this thread to discuss other Big 12 action today. At 11:30 a.m. CDT, Nebraska takes on Baylor in Waco, as the Huskers desperately try to get something to go right for them on offense. Shortly thereafter, Missouri and Colorado square off in snowy Boulder, with Missouri still seeking its first conference win. This afternoon, Iowa State travels to College Station to face Texas A&M, and a win would immediately vault the Cyclones into serious discussion regarding who will win the North. Also down in Texas today, the team down the river travels to the South Plains to meet Texas Tech. The night action includes our game and the big showdown in Stillwater, with Texas taking on Oklahoma State.

I've got a funny feeling.....
that we keep this game really close and have a chance to win/hold OU from winning late in the game
"It's hard to beat a person who never gives up"- Babe Ruth
So, what have we learned so far today?
Indiana got jobbed, Colorado really sucks, and Nebraska has a full-blown QB controversy. That about it so far?
Fuck
Tech LT gets beat, Doege gets hit as he’s throwing and KU recovers the fumble for an early TD.
Goddammit.
Happy Halloween all...
Tonight, the part of “Panjandrum” will be played by “Panjandrum wearing a Robert Goulet mask”.

At least we sort of expected this
I feel kinda numb right now. Not really pissed at all even though that drive was sad.
Also still euphoric over the Hawk meltdown.
It looks like we didn't even think we could win
I know it’s expected, but they need to show some pride and not give up like at Tech
Wildcat for life
Gotta have a pass rush. Nothing so far yet.

No sign of Daniel Thomas
Guess we’re just packing it in this week and playing for next week.
Oh, well. I don’t like it, but it probably is the most prudent move.
Why are we not bringing any one but the front 3/4?!

Sure but we know for an absolut fact we can't cover even with 7 back
Tech showed that. Why not at least put some effort into pressuring a quarterback

Running over us
We’re just standing there and letting them run over us for 5 more yards each play. Not taking the hits to them.

Won't happen
Stoops even called off the dogs on Prince last year. I suspect he and Snyder have a gentlemen’s agreement to keep it from getting too ugly.
So...Brent Venables as successor.

Great rush there from Calvin
All of a sudden, the DL has manned up and is getting pressure.
Is it talent or want-to?
Not to mention the holding that should have been called on OU
on the first third-down conversion. Fitz got held like crazy.
Hey, Josh Moore gets hurt in a throwaway game the week before KU...
Awesome.

"Without getting into specifics, my exit involves a McFlurry machine and a video tape of risque commercials from overseas." -- Jack Donaghy
Thought he just had the wind knocked out from the tackle
surprised to see him limping off. I was surprised he caught Brown from behind. The new CBs aren’t making plays yet like Moore is.
The good news is that we learned how to move the ball in the first half...
They’re at least moving down the field in a somewhat competent fashion. That’s good.

Wildcats are getting used to the speed of the game. Points out even in the rush of the first few posessions, no turnovers.
Great awareness by Hrebec on the shovel pass there
We’ll need that awareness against the Squawks next week. Bread and butter play for Mangino.
It's his job to score 'em
It’s our job to stop ’em.
He knows how good a coach Snyder is.
In the first half, I have no problem with it.
Nobody fucks with de Jesus.

We probably won’t win, but it sure does give one hope for the future.
Of course, OU self-destructing with penalties doesn’t hurt, either.
I mean, hey, a couple of OU turnovers, a special teams TD or something...you never know.

I’m beginning to think if we wouldn’t have spotted them 21 we could win
Wildcat for life
Maybe we could have
Just looked like we weren’t ready for the speed of the game until 10 minutes in.
Unfortunately, we already were down 21-0 at that point.
17-0 Texas
Cue the Okie Lite meltdown. They were way too popular an upset pick to actually pull it off.
Nice fourth down conversion...TD Wildcats

Look at it this way:
KU and KSU both gave up 42.
We scored more points than KU’s supposed all-world offense in a more hostile venue and against a much better defense.
Oh, and we made a better game of it against OU in their stadium than KU did in Lawrence.
So who’s the better team again?
We'll find out next week.

Yeah, sorry about that
My hometown had its biggest festival of the year this week and it’s just been insane at work.
I’ll make it up this week. In fact, look for two a week from here on out, because I want to try and finish them all before Thanksgiving, which is when the “big” noncon games and tourneys all start. Not much point previewing a team when it already has 4-5 games under its belt, ya know?
Good win boys 'n girls
Looks like things are getting EVEN more interesting in this race for the North :)
and the Mustache of Truculence (formerly Canada4Mizzou)
Well, not a win...
…but at least a decent showing. Need to keep playing well the next three weeks.
Nice win for Mizzou over Colorado. Pretty much exactly what they needed right now.
