K-State Slate: 1.18.12

K-State Basketball K-State takes on Texas in Manhattan tonight. Peter has the preview over at Burnt Orange Nation, and it would be fair to say Peter has a pretty damn good read on K-State's personnel this year. Apparently practice has been much better since the Oklahoma game on Saturday. It...

Postgame Reaction: Oklahoma State Cowboys

K-State fought to the end, but couldn't find a way to stop the Oklahoma State offense in the fourth quarter of a 52-45 loss in Stillwater. The most painful thing about the loss to the Cowboys was knowing that K-State was so close to a win, and knowing how important that win would have been. With...

Postgame Reaction: That School Down the River

K-State notched its second-straight blowout of in-state rival KU, and its third win in a row overall in the Sunflower Showdown, with a 59-21 victory over the Jayhawks on Saturday. With the victory, K-State moves to 7-0 on the season, and is tied with Oklahoma State at 4-0 in the Big 12 conference....

Postgame Reaction: Texas Tech Red Raiders

Another game, another set of fans who feel like they should have won afterward. Texas Tech had 580 total yards to K-State's 339. The Red Raiders had 32 first downs to double K-State's total. Tech ran 96 plays to K-State's 65. And yet, for several fairly obvious reasons, K-State left Lubbock with a...

Postgame Reaction: Missouri Tigers

K-State moved to 5-0 for the first time since 2000 with a 24-17 victory over Missouri. For the third game in a row, K-State faced a favored opponent, and left with a win that had the opponent feeling like they should have taken the victory. Alas, they still measure wins by points scored, not total...

Postgame Reaction: Miami

K-State's defense may not have played to its top-ranked reputation, but it did enough and came through when it counted to preserve a 28-24 victory for the Wildcats. Behind a punishing running attack and a breakout performance from the newly anointed Honey Badger -- quarterback Collin Klein --...

Postgame Reaction: Kent State

K-State notched its first shutout in five years when the Wildcats blanked Kent State, 37-0. Given the outstanding defensive effort, it was appropriate that the first score of the evening came on a pick six, as cornerback David Garrett jumped an out route and took it to the house. Collin Klein and...

Postgame Reaction: Eastern Kentucky

Time for a reassessment. With all applicable disclaimers about small sample sizes, that was not what we expected. K-State defeated Eastern Kentucky, 10-7, on the strength of a 33-yard touchdown pass from Collin Klein to Chris Harper with a mere 1:39 remaining. The yardage gained on that play...

Postgame Reaction: Baylor

After a two-week hiatus, we get a game that doesn't lie at the extremes of well-played (KU) or utter disaster (NU). It will be nice to go through the usual format and give some thoughts on the game, even though I was only able to listen on the radio. First of all, one thing everyone needs to rid...

Postgame Reaction: KU

Last week, I eschewed the usual postgame reaction format because there really weren't any positives to be taken from the blowout loss to Nebraska. The same is true, but in reverse this week. There's really no reason to go through the things I liked about the game, which was pretty much...
