K-State vs. Kansas: A Rivalry Defined by Dominance

K-State vs. Kansas: A Rivalry Defined by Dominance

If you have followed sports for any length of time, you have probably heard coaches and players say about their rival, “It’s not a rivalry if it is not competitive.” I somewhat agree but mostly disagree with that sentiment. The University of Kansas and Kansas State University have always been fierce rivals, no matter how good or bad the sports programs happen to be. If I had my way, K-State would beat KU by 50 points for 50 years in…

From The Couch – K-State Still In Contention After Victory Over West Virginia

Quarterback Avery Johnson threw for 298 yards and three touchdowns in a 45-18 win over the West Virginia Mountaineers on Saturday night. The victory moved K-State to 6-1 on the season and right in the thick of the race to the Big 12 championship. It was nice to see a blowout, no-stress win as a fan, but this was still a game in doubt at halftime, and had West Virginia quarterback Garrett Greene been healthy throughout the game, the final…

From The Couch – Welcome Back To The Big 12, Colorado

I am not a fan of the Colorado Buffaloes. Never have been. Their fans have always been arrogant and condescending.

That made K-State’s 31-28 victory over Colorado in Boulder Saturday night/Sunday morning the most satisfying K-State victory in quite some time. I flew…

Ten Reasons Why K-State Will Beat Colorado On Saturday

The K-State football team returns to action this Saturday night at 9:15 against the Colorado Buffaloes. After the dissolution of the Pac 12 last year, Colorado came crawling back to the Big 12 with their tail between their legs. It’s quite ironic for an institution that gave the most condescending press conference I’ve ever heard in 2010 when they left the Big 12 for the Pac 12. But I digress. This is an intriguing football game. There is future NFL…

The Road Ahead: K-State’s Path to the Big 12 Championship

K-State football has two bye weeks this season and the first one comes this weekend. After a 42-20 win over Oklahoma State on Saturday, K-State sits at 4-1 on the season and 1-1 in the Big 12. The Wildcats still have a shot to make the Big 12 championship game, but they might have to win out to do it. In this week’s column, I will analyze the early Big 12 football season and K-State’s place in it. This is…
