From The Couch – K-State Destroys LSU In The Texas Bowl

From The Couch – K-State Destroys LSU In The Texas Bowl

It was a lot of fun being a K-State football fan last night watching K-State beat LSU 42-20 in the Texas Bowl. K-State led 42-7 late in the 4th quarter before LSU scored two meaningless touchdowns near the end of the game. LSU was shorthanded and didn’t really have a true quarterback playing, but they are still a very talented roster and K-State really took it to them. Skylar Thompson and Deuce Vaughn were spectacular for K-State, but it was…

From The Couch – Eight Straight Big 12 Losses Is Cause For Concern

K-State lost 33-20 to Iowa State last night in a game that was close in the first half but got away from the Wildcats early in the second half.

A Bye-Week Reset Of Expectations For The Wildcats

A Bye-Week Reset Of Expectations For The Wildcats

It’s time for a bye-week reset of expectations for the Kansas State Wildcats. Despite a 37-31 loss to the Oklahoma Sooners on Saturday, it was great seeing K-State quarterback Skylar Thompson back healthy and leading the Wildcat offense. He was cool, calm, and collected while completing 29 of 41 passes for 320 yards and three touchdowns in the game. Having Thompson back gives me hope that Kansas State can make a bowl game, and maybe even a good bowl game,…
