Tueslate: Championship Round-up

Apologies for the late start. Let's jump right in. First up Curtis Kitchen reminded us that the men's basketball team is very much a work in progress and the Negative Nancy's need to pipe down.

Curtis then announced the return of head coach Bill Snyder for next season, and finally Eric Rubottom previewed tonight's match-up with Texas Tech.

Last night put a cap on the 2015 College Football season, with a great final chapter. Kudos to Alabama on the championship, and a shout-out for the best onside kick in a championship game. Now it's time to move onto the rumors of Brent Venables leaving Clemson to come back to Kansas State. (please be true, please be true).

Also of note is, USA Today's final grades for all 128 FBS teams. Let's just say Kansas State isn't going to be the valedictorian anytime soon. (Paul Myerberg, USA Today)
