This game is on the list because I remember it as one of the craziest finishes to a Kansas State football game maybe that I’ve ever seen.  And the unlikely comeback by Kansas State forced the Iowa State administration to fire head coach Paul Rhoads after the game! Here are some highlights I found, but the video doesn’t tell the whole story: K-State trailed 35-14 at halftime and 35-21 going into the 4th quarter.  K-State got within a touchdown early…

How a 16 team college football playoff could work

How a 16 team college football playoff could work

I am a proponent of a 16 team college football playoff system.  I’m sitting here watching some bowl games on New Years Day that are completely meaningless to me other than the fact that I enjoy watching college football.  A selection committee picked four teams to participate in a playoff and those games were not competitive for the most part.  New Years Day used to be the day of college football bowl games.  Most bowl games were played on New…

The Big 12 Is Boring

The Big 12 Is Boring

Last night KU basketball and Oklahoma football played games at almost exactly the same time.  Of course both won, which surprised nobody who follows this league.  The Big 12 has become downright boring.

Kansas has won or tied for the basketball championship the last 14 seasons.  We…
