Postgame Reaction: Texas A&M Aggies
At this point, who is not having fun this season? If you were at the game on Saturday, then lucky you. That was one of the greatest games I've ever attended. K-State started poorly, battled back, fell behind and looked to be dead before finding a late aerial attack to force overtime. It took four...
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: Oklahoma Sooners
This delayed post brought to you by the joy of home Internet outages! Late in the second half of Saturday's 58-17 loss to Oklahoma, I tweeted "Reality check" from the BOTC account. In a sense, that was accurate, as Saturday's game was a wake-up call to those of us who had dared to let ourselves...
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...
