From The Couch – New Linebackers Coach, K-State/Oklahoma State Reaction, Murphy Surgery, K-State Pro Day

Another disappointing loss for K-State basketball last night, losing 69-63 to Oklahoma State.  We’ll start there… “We knew it would be a hard-fought game. Guys gave us their all. They gave us a chance, but just can’t get over the hump. It’s hard. I don’t know if I have much emotion left, I’ll be honest. And the other thing is, we’re right there (losing a lot of close games), so that even makes it even more, it takes the emotion…

Liberty Bowl Day Two Part Two

Liberty Bowl Day Two Part Two

Please check out part one and two of my Memphis trip blog if you haven’t already.  This is part three! We left the Liberty Bowl game hoping to stop by Payne’s Barbecue, but it was already closed for the evening.  Plan B was to try Cozy Corner BBQ, which came highly recommended.  I entered the address in the GPS and it was only five or 10 minutes away from us and basically on the way to downtown Memphis and Beale…

I asked a couple barbecue experts which barbecue…

K-State/West Virginia Game Thoughts – Enough Of Second And Long!

K-State/West Virginia Game Thoughts – Enough Of Second And Long!

It was a second straight disappointing loss for K-State Football on Saturday, losing 24-20 to West Virginia in a game they could have won at the end if not for a Skylar Thompson interception. My Dad and I were talking a few weeks ago that it seems that offensive coordinator Courtney Messingham and Chris Klieman are pretty stubborn about running the ball right up the middle on first down for little to no gain.  Watching the game again on Sunday…
