Merry Christmas!

There’s not much going on, as Kansas State is on holiday break, so feel free to use this Slate as your BotC Christmas open thread.

— Kansas State’s student-athletes donated a lot of money for the Adopt-A-Family program.

— Seven football players earned All-Big 12 honors from Phil Steele, including Joshua Youngblood and Wyatt Hubert, both with first team nods.

— Chris Klieman is more than a bit worried about the Liberty Bowl and the rushing juggernaut that is Navy. Thanks to the unique triple-option offense, the Midshipmen have averaged 363.8 yards on the ground at a clip of 6.1 yards per carry.

— Are there too many bowl games? Yes. Quit your whining and get off my lawn.

— Kansas State is in a five-year skid in terms of enrollment decline. The sharpest drop is in enrollment in rural counties.

And that’s all she wrote. Merry Christmas and to all a good morning!
