Texas Tech Game (Gonna Be U G L Y)

This is probably the easiest game to predict so far this season. There is NO WAY K-State wins this game. With no defensive pressure up front in sight, Texas Tech is going to be scoring (pretty much) at will.

Kansas State: 14
Texas Tech: 48

ISU (in Arrowhead)

Let's start by stating this fact. In 1993 when I was a single man, I went to Ames to see K-State play ISU (bad game, another story, another time... streaker game). Anyway, me and two buddies went out on the town the Friday b4 the game. We saw exacly ZERO attractive girls. That's Ames, I guess.

Now to the game...

Flip a coin on this one. Seriously. It's the two crappiest teams in the Big XII playing each other. Whomever doesn't turn the ball over and has a defensive TD or special teams TD will win. With that...

KSU 21
ISU 17

And Josh Cherry misses 3 field goals in this contest. Daniel Thomas continues his 100+ yard a game streak with 155 yards.

Tenn Tech

Yeah, yeah, yeah... it was Tennessee Tech, but damn it's good to get a DOD Non-Con victory once again.

Now, it's on to conference play against ISU @ Arrowhead on Saturday. This is a MUST WIN for... well, nothing really.

K-State still needs 5 more wins to get to a bowl game in 2009.

Possibilities of KSU win:

ISU = 75%
Texas Tech = 5%
Texas A&M = 85%
Colorado = 75%
Oklahoma = .0001%
KU = 5%
MU = 30%
Nebraska = 20%

That's 3 more wins for K-State in 2009.

UCLA

No flarping way K-State pulls a "W" in this game. If they do, I vow to wear a K-State shirt for 30 days straight (different one each day).

Prediction:
KSU 7
UCLA 24

QB play for K-State continues to be a JOKE. Daniel Thomas gets 54 yards, then gets injured.

Louisiana Game

I actually had a moment today that I thought K-State had a chance.

Nah.

KSU 17
Louisiana 31

UMASS (Post Game)

Well, I almost got the score right, Coffman WAS unimpressive and Thomas ran for a little over 100 yards (WAY off with Banks and his special team blunder that gave UMASS great field position).

This season should be nicknamed "Baby Steps".

At least the stadium was filled.

UMASS (Game #1)

This game could be a bit uglier than most K-State fans want to see. As a 1st game of the year with a new system and a "decent" opponent... this adds up to:

K-State 28
UMASS 17

Brandon Banks gets a special teams TD. Carson Coffman is unimpressive. Daniel Thomas runs for 95 yards.

Cats get the W

2nd Round of NIT... here we come. Can you FEEL the excitement?! I said DAMN!

The basketball season will end Friday for the Cats.

San Diego State: 68

Kansas State: 62

I was right (tooting own horn)

I was right on the UT loss, as far as being too big on the inside (that's what she said).

NIT tonight.

KSU: 74

Illinois State: 59

CU Cheerleaders NTB either

UT Cheerleaders R HAWT!

And CU is still hanging around!

Thursday @ 2:00 (UT vs KSU)

It's halftime of the UT/CU game and no way that CU pulls this one out (35-29). But PLEASE DO.

UT is too big on the inside and will beat K-State tomorrow. If Clemente, Pullen or Brown is off from the outside, gonna be a LONG day.

UT: 79

KSU: 65

*By the way, gonna be on a plane to Chicago tomorrow. I fly out at... 2:00 pm. Yep, gonna miss this one.

4th in the BIG XII

Boo-yah! For a season that KSU was picked at the bottom of the Big XII, that's a HELL of a finish for the guys in purple. Now it's on to OK City and probably a game against UT on Thursday (unless CU shoots lights out again against UT on Wednesday, like they did in the 1st half against KSU).

Then the potentional rematch with KU (with a win against UT/CU). But first things first, win that first game.

OSU 77 KSU 71

Well, closer than I thought. KSU could STILL finish 4th in the Big XII this year, which is a HUGE accomplishment given the lack of talent on the inside. Colon and Anderson (even though he had a DECENT game last night) are worthless. And if Dom Sutton decides to play some "O" he could be dangerous. Guy has great athleticism -- so GO TO THE HOLE!

T.C.O.B. @ home Saturday against CU then look to win the tourney in OK City (yeah right).

But I'd love for K-State to have another shot at KU.

KSU 79

CU 58

Huskers done... on to OK STATE

Well, Cats get the win in Manhattan against the Huskers. Good win.

Win in Stillwater and... well, it's a good win. KSU would still need to get to the Big XII tourney final to get into the NCAA tourney.

Loss in Stillwater.

KSU: 56

OSU: 81
