From The Couch – Football Team Embarrassed Against Texas

   The football Wildcats were embarrassed by the Texas Longhorns in their regular season finale yesterday, losing 69-31 and falling to 4-6 on the season.  It wasn’t a good day to be a K-State fan, as the basketball Wildcats, now 1-3 on the season, lost 68-58 to previously winless UNLV.  There’s not much to be excited about with either program right now. “I thought they had a really good game plan and their kids were ready to battle and play. …

K-State lost their fourth straight game last night to the Baylor Bears 32-31 on a last-second field goal.  The Cats were up 11 points in the first half and had a nine point lead with nine minutes left in the game.  There is plenty to dissect in this one.  I watched the replay this morning and, unfortunately, the outcome was the same as last night, resulting in a very bad upset stomach. Let’s take a look at what happened… “It’s…

From The Couch – Oklahoma State Game Thoughts/Covid Strikes Again

  I’m finally getting around to writing my column about the game last Saturday against Oklahoma State. It only took me five days!  Let’s just say it’s been a busy week.  Anyway… Normally I re-watch each game on Sunday morning to help refresh my memory and to takeaway the key moments from the game prior to sitting down and writing.  The key moments in this one were easy to remember and this one hurt more than most because victory and…
