K-State travels to Morgantown to play the Mountaineers. Should be a fun game.

Next up for the Cats is WVU. Should be a fun game. Cats control their own destiny, win and very good things happen. Lose and good things happen but not as good as if they keep winning.

Part of the issue with having a small fan base, the perception is that we don't (fill in the blank). This is despite always asking for more tickets at each bowl that K-State has attended. If you want to sell out your ticket allotment bowl executives, just invite K-State.

This game needs a catchy slogan like FARMAGEDDON has, so if you have ideas for a trophy and/or a name for this series use the comments.

The preseason polls indicate the Cats will finish with a record of 10-2 with losses on the road to WVU and OU. The weekly polls last year were not as accurate as the preseason polls, it would be interesting to track the voting by 'primary' team during the course of the season.

I decided to omit the stats this week because I'm not sure they add anything. Use cfbstats.com if you need stats.
