T-minus 38 days until K-State kicks off the 2023 college football season against Southeast Missouri State. It’s been a while since I have seen this much anticipation and hype around K-State football going into a football season. Expectations are high since the media picked K-State to finish second in the league behind Texas. Some are even projecting K-State to repeat as champions and to make the college football playoff!

As sports fans, we all like to play the “what if” game. What if X had happened instead of Y? Would the result be different? Would the course of history have been changed? If yes, how so? These “what if” questions can go far back into time, like “What if the Red Sox never sold Babe Ruth to the Yankees?” to more recent events like “What if the Buffalo Bills didn’t give Patrick Mahomes 13 seconds to tie the AFC…
