After a bad first 28 minutes, K-State forced an Arkansas fumble and scored a touchdown to cut the Razorbacks' lead to 19-9 at halftime. Everybody's thoughts should be with K-State defensive lineman Meshak Williams, who was carted off the field after a violent collision with teammate Emmanuel Lamur. Let's go get this one for Meshak.
Go Cats!

IndianaCatFan - January 6, 2012

you guys gotta seize the momentum while ya got it, pigz were close to finishing the game in the 1st half.
dukeoforange - January 6, 2012
Yes
That blocked extra point and the fumble changed the momentum big time….we need to keep up the pressure.

I'm only going by the radio feed,
but I don’t get the impression that the KSUAD needs to put together a first half highlight video to jumpstart Collin’s 2012 Heisman campaign?

In fact
He’ll probably want to destroy all tapes of the first half in case a potential Heisman voter could get his/her hands on it.

he reiterated that he suffered two egregious drops and a third that should have been caught, and that it would have been a different half with a little support.

Ahearn Alley - January 6, 2012
Even in turnovers.
And we’ve had 3 passes dropped that should have been caught.
Not to mention a long running play called back because of motion penalty.
Anon_the_younger - January 6, 2012
Yeah, that looks like a standard first half.
Panjandrum - January 6, 2012
The question is
watch the 2nd half in the mancave and hang out here, or go in the living room and watch it on the plasma.
UMDBHIK - January 6, 2012
Whereever drinks are handy.
Anon_the_younger - January 6, 2012
Arkansas' passing game has been a little surprising.
They’re not throwing a bunch of underneath and mid-range stuff, which is what usually kills us (see, e.g., OU). Find seams in the zone, give the receiver a chance to make plays in space. Instead, they pretty much only throw it over the top.
Just an observation.
TB - January 6, 2012
I think they thought our corners weren't as good as they are, and Zimm and Hartman are playing inspired football.
Panjandrum - January 6, 2012
On a side note, ESPN should be embarrassed how badly Fox is schooling their broadcasts.
This has been amazing on all levels.
Panjandrum - January 6, 2012
ESPN may not know that Fox exists.
They’re a little sheltered up there in Bristol.
UMDBHIK - January 6, 2012

ESPN just doesn’t care. Why should they? There isn’t a network that can compete with the sports leader.

Everybody cant be PANJANDRUM
MeatchickenHorn - January 6, 2012
I go back and forth on this concept
On one hand there’s no denying Jones’ is frickin’ good. Don’t understand why OU people think he’s no good because he’s excelleng, BUT…..
Whatever the ‘IT’ factor that Tebow or Klein posses to make up for their shortcomings in athleticism, I think Jones is the inverse of that. He just knows how to lose, and derp at the right (or wrong depending on your perspective) moments.
GTcat - January 6, 2012
Jones just does not pass well under pressure.
He wasn’t helped much by his receivers, Broyles excepted, either. The Tech game… man, those guys weren’t even reaching for catchable balls while Jones was trying to mount a comeback.
jonfmorse - January 6, 2012
Precisely
Excellent analysis, Jon. Jones was good in the Tech game, but his receivers were not. Onwards towards the end of the year, though, Jones wasn’t helping his cause either by throwing high and wide.

Ok
I apologize for saying Klien throw good slant passes…..His wind up is way to long….Passes get kocked down at the LOS waaaayyy to often.
KSUEMAW! - January 6, 2012
Nothing wrong with that pass...the DB made a good play on the ball.
Catbacker98 - January 6, 2012
Tis the windup
Hopefully he can shorten it in the offseason, because it would really expand his passing game and is one of the few weaknesses he has.

…that K-State isn’t built for comebacks.
This is the group that calls itself the worldwide leader in sports.*
*Yes, I fully realize we haven’t even tied the game yet.
TB - January 6, 2012
Not the slant pass....The 3rd down pass got batted at the line
KSUEMAW! - January 6, 2012
You need your receivers to hang onto those passes.

Nope ... we will play a zone instead.
Anon_the_younger - January 6, 2012
I disagree
Dropping 7 or 8 in the redzone is better than any other time, because the space is so compacted. Just couldn’t anticipate it well enough, or get enough pressure with the line.

I agree ...
But then, I don’t think much of Landry Jones. Really inaccurate. He’s throwing to wide open guys all the time.
Itchy n Scratchy - January 6, 2012
By far.
He’s more mobile, and he doesn’t miss by 10 feet when he has to throw on even the slightest run.

Its either been in the endzone or out of bounds

Soft zone on 3rd again...
ksu-cjw88 - January 6, 2012
Especially one play after we forced a bad throw with pressure in his face
TB - January 6, 2012
It's what I have been sayin all year, along with almost everyone else on BOTC
Griffen, Landry, Weeden, all of the great qbs in the Big 12 do not look the same with pressure in their face. Almost no one does.
ksu-cjw88 - January 6, 2012
I think that is part of the reason
that the SEC gets the reputation for not playing offense. We actually put pressure on the QB and hit them. A lot.
El Kabong!!! - January 6, 2012
And you have some ridiculous defensive linemen
TB - January 6, 2012
Big linebackers, too.
A lot of 3-4 teams that use the linebackers to rush instead of the DL.
El Kabong!!! - January 6, 2012
Don't make me post the quote about Cosh again.
Stop ‘em. Make ’em go backwards. Score from forcing a turnover. None of this frigging ’we just need to outscore the other team so it doesn’t matter if you let them get a first down or score.’
That is just a piss poor attitude for a defensive coordinator. Your job as DC is to stop the other team, to put your players in a place where they can stop the other team. To teach the players how to get in position and execute to stop the other team. Anything other than completely taking the other team out of their plans is not acceptable.
Get a clue Cosh.

MeatchickenHorn - January 6, 2012
I agree - I'm impressed.
Snide Aside - January 6, 2012
You don't understand.
The players? We LOVE the players.
We love them so much that their constant misuse and being placed in position to fail angers us beyond reason.
jonfmorse - January 6, 2012
Beat me to it
And as always, more elegant. Sometime I wish I was of Morse.
Ahearn Alley - January 6, 2012
Only sometimes?
TB - January 6, 2012
Being of Morse has its drawbacks.
jonfmorse - January 6, 2012
Don't you mean,
“Hear ye, Here ye! Being of Morse has its drawbacks.”?
MrHappyMushroom - January 6, 2012
KSU is just playing coy.
They’re going to blow Arky out of the water.
El Kabong!!! - January 6, 2012
Our DC, well our feelings are the exact opposite.
Ideally he will get hired at KU and do for Weis whas he’s done for K-State.
Anon_the_younger - January 6, 2012
That's why we're not criticizing the players
They can’t make the right plays if the coaches are making stupid calls. We’re generally pretty consistent about this around here.
Ahearn Alley - January 6, 2012
But if we try the soft zone for the threeve time, it might work .....
Anon_the_younger - January 6, 2012
threeve? I LOL'd
dukeoforange - January 6, 2012
D actually played uncharacteristically well tonight
They’ve had good spurts in games this year: UT, Baylor, MU, Miami but I think this performance was the most sustained well playing. Though you could see them running out of gas in the 2nd half of the 4th qtr.
GTcat - January 6, 2012
The D, for the most part, has PLAYED well all season.
It’s not their fault their boss is a moron.
jonfmorse - January 6, 2012
Damn they might not even kick any more
Holy shit. What a turn of events.
2.1 seconds left - January 6, 2012
Should have been on the D there.
UMDBHIK - January 6, 2012
80-yard signature drive, coming up.
2.1 seconds left - January 6, 2012
ya and when they get to 5 yd line game is over
ludashoeless - January 6, 2012
Come on Purple Cats!
Bring it.
horndude - January 6, 2012
That intentional grounding + false start on fg attempt were HUGE
512 - January 6, 2012
sidenote:
my Lord thats a bad pizza hut commercial
horns1025 - January 6, 2012
haha
ludashoeless - January 6, 2012
Agreed.
UMDBHIK - January 6, 2012
u guys ready for the sooner network?!?!?!?
ludashoeless - January 6, 2012
haha
ludashoeless - January 6, 2012
its wierd that you are laughing at your own comment
EMAW 4 Ever - January 6, 2012
Have you ever seen a Beegut live game thread?
horndude - January 6, 2012
Those are the best
Ahearn Alley - January 6, 2012
We have.
We have seen them.
All fans of other teams have seen them.
Roughly three Aggies have seen them.
MrHappyMushroom - January 6, 2012
if a beerbutt hollers in the basement of his parents house
will they hear him and tell him to STFU or he’s grounded?
dukeoforange - January 6, 2012
Can't wait to watch all the SB Nation SECers discover him and say
WTF!!?
horndude - January 6, 2012
exporting him to the SEC blogs was worth ending the rivalry IMO
dukeoforange - January 6, 2012
I don't know that the SEC recognizes the insanity they've invited into their conference.
Missouri I will not root for them but I hope they do not fail. aTm … I’ll just laugh at any failure.
Anon_the_younger - January 6, 2012
still dont get Missouri move
other than embarrassment at not getting into the Big 10 what else could they be mad about. It’s not like we kicked their ass for 110 years like we did to aTm. They built their complex up over a century but Missouri? They just dont belong in the $EC.
dukeoforange - January 6, 2012
PAAAAAWWWWWWLLLLLL,
Why the hell did we let Missouri in our conference?
horndude - January 6, 2012
hah!
dukeoforange - January 6, 2012
Missouri's move is more of a perception thing than anything else.
They want to be relevant and moving to the SEC they think will help this.
The perception of some is that Texas is evil and will basically kill any conference. Notice that the teams that play with Texas are not the ones making the argument, it is the teams that lose to Texas regularly that make the argument.
Personally I like Texas and enjoy the games, even when we lose.
KS, OK and TX are all similar states so I’m glad (and hope it continues) the Big XII continues to survive.
Anon_the_younger - January 6, 2012
It will survive. The misanthropes are all gone now.
Panjandrum - January 6, 2012
FALLACY!
KSU has never lost to Texas and you know it so stop rubbing it in!
dukeoforange - January 6, 2012
Wait
Has this ever happened?
horndude - January 6, 2012
It's happened twice
in my lifetime.
jonfmorse - January 6, 2012
I can't wait
To see what those bammy rednecks do when the aggies stand up in front of them the whole game.
Snide Aside - January 6, 2012
They'll smack them with their pompoms.
Oh, I’m sorry, their SHAKERS.
jonfmorse - January 6, 2012
they definitely dilluted their conference with those 2
They can kiss bye bye to their “premier” college football league tag over the next half decade.
GTcat - January 6, 2012
Trust me, EDSBS already knows him.
There will be no surprises at the SEC blogs.
jonfmorse - January 6, 2012
yeah, that's been fun times.
horndude - January 6, 2012
Ok, I LOL'd at this
Snide Aside - January 6, 2012
ou sucks
Furnace76 - January 6, 2012
agreed
ludashoeless - January 6, 2012
Well, time for a TD
EMAW 4 Ever - January 6, 2012
Yep, this newfangled getting into the opponents backfield thing?
Me likey.
apewatcher - January 6, 2012 via mobile
I bet Arkansas' players aren't saying the Big 12 can't play physical anymore.
TB - January 6, 2012
they probably cant spell "Physical"
i mean it is Arkansas
horns1025 - January 6, 2012
Moral victory engaged!
El Kabong!!! - January 6, 2012

I've been busy with a basketball game and have been listening on and off
I heard T-Lock was dressed out has he got in
EMAW 4 Ever - January 6, 2012
No
Panjandrum - January 6, 2012
Nope
Not yet. I’m still hoping he pulls a Willis Reed or video game Greg Jennings.
Ahearn Alley - January 6, 2012
TeeeeeBow !!!!
MeatchickenHorn - January 6, 2012
tick tock - gotta score and gotta hold 'em!
Snide Aside - January 6, 2012
Down by 10 in the fourth? Let’s take another timeout, leaving us with 1 for the remainder of the game.
UMDBHIK - January 6, 2012
Never mind. Thought that was a KSU timeout.
UMDBHIK - January 6, 2012
Oh, come on. That's a catch.
Panjandrum - January 6, 2012
Thats a catch
astrosmurf - January 6, 2012
Gus Johnson just said Klein was a better passer than Tebow
EMAW 4 Ever - January 6, 2012
who isnt
ludashoeless - January 6, 2012
Me
TB - January 6, 2012
i disagree
ludashoeless - January 6, 2012
Hash marks fear Tim Tebow. He just abuses them with rocket throws.
Panjandrum - January 6, 2012
Warren Sapp, probably.
UMDBHIK - January 6, 2012
not saying much
astrosmurf - January 6, 2012
Thats not saying a lot
MeatchickenHorn - January 6, 2012
jerry jones gonna throw a fit if k state wins
ludashoeless - January 6, 2012
OH NOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!
astrosmurf - January 6, 2012
Again with this play calling.
Catbacker98 - January 6, 2012
really a screen pass now?
KSUEMAW! - January 6, 2012
Aye yi yay
Panjandrum - January 6, 2012
Jeez
Sweet catch and then he almost runs back behind the first down
2.1 seconds left - January 6, 2012
Sheldon Smith JUST ABOUT gave up that first down...
TB - January 6, 2012
yeh that woulda been epic
dukeoforange - January 6, 2012
Smith almost gave up the first.
Catbacker98 - January 6, 2012
Arkansas it HITTING - my God!
Snide Aside - January 6, 2012
Is Cosh calling D plays for Arkansas now?
UMDBHIK - January 6, 2012
Nice play
Reminiscent of the last #87, dare I say it. Normally, though, I just long for Jordy when Smith makes catches.
Ahearn Alley - January 6, 2012
Jordy = #27 for KSU, #87 for GB
ohiocats84 - January 7, 2012
You're right
I got it mixed up. I’m embarrassed, especially since I just got a Jordy bobblehead for Christmas.
Ahearn Alley - January 7, 2012
Klein, you're going to need to freaking make a decision to run.
Panjandrum - January 6, 2012
like that one
EMAW 4 Ever - January 6, 2012
Geez, he almost gave it back, nice catch though
astrosmurf - January 6, 2012
ok i realize there is under 10 to play...why don't we run klien some more too much throwing
KSUEMAW! - January 6, 2012
time fopr a long Klein Run
Furnace76 - January 6, 2012
how does k state have not only klein but RECEIVERS THAT CAN ACTUALLY CATCH A PASS unlike texas
ludashoeless - January 6, 2012
Mack relies on Rivals rankings. Which, by and large, are crap.
Panjandrum - January 6, 2012
Wait, I thought "being recruited by Texas"
was one of the things that automatically makes you at least a 4-star?
jonfmorse - January 6, 2012
we only take 2 stars
Furnace76 - January 6, 2012
But 5 hearts
Panjandrum - January 6, 2012
hey i remember you saying you wanted Johnathan Gray
lol
horns1025 - January 6, 2012
finally a running play
KSUEMAW! - January 6, 2012
run it
ludashoeless - January 6, 2012

Until Jan. 18
Then it’s beatdown time again
Ahearn Alley - January 6, 2012
It's always beatdown time,
but we seem to like it.
horndude - January 6, 2012
And we appreciate that
I went with my UT friend to the 45-42 win in Manhattan (sorry if this brings up bad memories) and he didn’t complain all that much when I rushed the field afterwards and he basically had to come with me, UT hat and all. Quite nice of him.

That's it.
Catbacker98 - January 6, 2012
He was moving after the play
but prob has a serious conc.
tjr9898 - January 6, 2012 via Android app
Seems to me that it would be nice to not have to run 3 plays to move the sticks every time.
UMDBHIK - January 6, 2012
Nice blocking???
astrosmurf - January 6, 2012
Gotta kick it
Snide Aside - January 6, 2012
And that's why that was not a good decision.
(hindsight 20/20)
UMDBHIK - January 6, 2012
We have got to go for it
KSUEMAW! - January 6, 2012
Bring on Cantele

Panjandrum - January 6, 2012
WFT ANTHONY CANTELE
KSUEMAW! - January 6, 2012
The play before the FG attempt...
I was actually thinking on 3rd I would have been ok with a CK draw up the middle (hoping for at least 3 yds) to set up the FG centered. Sigh.
GTcat - January 7, 2012
Nothing would have mattered.
Cantele may as well have kicked that into our long-snappers ass that attempt was so pathetic.
CT-K-Stater - January 7, 2012
I beg to differ, but no point in really making a debate out of such a pointless issue I guess
GTcat - January 7, 2012
That’s game.
UMDBHIK - January 6, 2012
Your kickers as bad as ours
astrosmurf - January 6, 2012
which 1... wait it dont matter they all suck over the last 10 yrs

FUUUUMBOOOOLE!!!!!!!
astrosmurf - January 6, 2012
That first half plus the injuries killed us.
Panjandrum - January 6, 2012
Piss poor execution and bad game plan killed us.
Injuries were just the icing.
Crap.
/insert Anglo Saxon words for about 50 lines.
Anon_the_younger - January 6, 2012
Unless the K-State gets a turn over ... game is over.
The good news is that with the missed FG, K-State is now eligible for SEC memebership.
Anon_the_younger - January 6, 2012
75 million in stadium renovations as well.
Catbacker98 - January 6, 2012
well, good effort - too many early mistakes took us out of our game
we couldn’t make mistakes
Furnace76 - January 6, 2012
At least they fought.
Panjandrum - January 6, 2012
better game plan would have helped.
Anon_the_younger - January 6, 2012

KSUEMAW! - January 6, 2012
Yup

we are tired now

Bad gap assignments.
Catbacker98 - January 6, 2012
You know, we'd have trucked Michigan.
jonfmorse - January 6, 2012
Oh, we would have destroyed them.
Panjandrum - January 6, 2012
+1
Furnace76 - January 6, 2012
Or Virginia Tech
Or Clemson. Or West Virginia.
Ahearn Alley - January 6, 2012
Maybe not West Virginia.
jonfmorse - January 6, 2012
meh
WV=glass cannons. I happen to think KSU would match up well with them. Smash’em in the mouth and watch’em fold.
dukeoforange - January 6, 2012
What?
I’m supposed to be impressed with West Virginia because they had a 99-yard fumble return and Clemson fell apart? No thanks. They still lost 2 games in the Big East.
Ahearn Alley - January 6, 2012

not to mention, Holgersensonsesneon, is one statutory rape charge away from prison on any given weekend.

was truly rooting for you to beat the evil bacon.
dukeoforange - January 6, 2012
Even if we lose I am still really impessed with what we did this season.
We deserve to be ranked in the top 15 (we won’t) preseason but we will be back stronger faster and hungrier next season just wait, within the next 4 years we will have another Big 12 championship trophy to add to the trophy case.
EMAW 4 Ever - January 6, 2012
You can't take away ten wins. Great season. Nothing to be ashamed of.
Panjandrum - January 6, 2012

Bill, Collin, Arthur and the boys found a way to make an optimist look like an idiot.

(Glances back and forth)

These guys played their asses off tonight, just like so many games throughout the year. This was the most fun I’ve had watching K-State football in 8 years.
2.1 seconds left - January 6, 2012
No doubt, and it really looks like the next few years will be just as good if not better
EMAW 4 Ever - January 6, 2012
+1 for you sir.
I agree wholeheartedly. 8th in the conference to 8th in the nation (currrently) and 10 wins. Looking forward to next season already should be a good one.

wish we’d have played without the uncharacteristics mistakes, and the ref had called clipping on the punt return, but we should have overcome that.
Furnace76 - January 6, 2012
Yes there was a block in the back there.

Good people over there.
Ahearn Alley - January 6, 2012

Hopefully, this sets us up for a good year in 2012.
Panjandrum - January 6, 2012
Sorry it didn't end the way you wanted...
K-State represented the conference well. Thanks for a great evening.
Stop by BON and say hi.
And please don’t beat us in 2012. Again.

Oh, come on.
Y’all can be functioning losingstreakers.
jonfmorse - January 6, 2012
Hard not to feel bad for guys like Garrett, Hartman, Lamur, and Aufner
Just glad they got to have one real special year though
EMAW 4 Ever - January 6, 2012
Amen. They brought us back.
Panjandrum - January 6, 2012
Ditto
Feel especially bad for Hartman and Lamur, ending their careers on the sidelines.
TB - January 6, 2012
Hopefully Meshak can make it back for Spring ball
EMAW 4 Ever - January 6, 2012
feels the same way i felt after we dropped the ball in Pullen's last game against Wisky
KSUEMAW! - January 6, 2012
Heads up. We have a football castle coming our way.
Panjandrum - January 6, 2012
Say what?
Catbacker98 - January 6, 2012
Oh the renovations.

enjoyed this game thread immensely, some of you have said, one of the best ever here at bringonthecats.com Well we all know why this is, and yes you are welcome for our presence. Now enjoy the warm glow of our awesomeness that is Texas Fight. May the horn Gabriel lull you to sleep and may you dream of Mack Brown kicking your ass (cuz it will only happen in a dream sequence and not reality).

This week has just kinda been shitty as far as playing goes
EMAW 4 Ever - January 6, 2012
In all seriousness guys
You have a class program run by a great coach. I expected to hear a lot of SEC hate in here tonight and was pleasantly surprised that there was not much at all.
I’d love to have our coach, the Dark Evil Lord and Master himself Nick Saban to schedule you guys for a home and home, or even a neutral site game, I think it would be a fun matchup.
Your team played hard and did well. You should be proud of the results. Arky is a tougher team than a lot of people give them credit for.

Just one, all I ask.
jonfmorse - January 6, 2012
Dude
We were having a moment. Why’d you have to go and ruin it like that?
Ahearn Alley - January 6, 2012
After what some of those guys said about Alabama
When they should be bitching about the BCS, I lost pretty much all of my respect for their fanbase.
Got no problem with them being hurt after being left out of the title game. There is a reason why the SEC has been lobbying for a playoff for years now. But to hate on the team that got there ahead of you when we did nothing but what we were supposed to have done was uncalled for.
It is like they expected Saban to step up and say, “No thank you, we were planning on going to Shreveport this year.”
El Kabong!!! - January 6, 2012
there are losers in every bunch.
I’m sure if the interwebs were around for the first time ‘Bama got snubbed for their first legitimate chance at a nat’l title someone in your bunch would say something stupid too…it’s sports man. I get sick of it too, but to think that one particular fanbase (other than Nebraska of course—see this is part of the joke) is littered with more than another is just short sighted.
GTcat - January 7, 2012
Nah, you get aggy now, we’re all good!
horndude - January 6, 2012
No amount of hatred can compare to what the SEC got themselves into with A&M. They got in bed with the scum of collegiate athletics.
And I mean that with all sincerity.
God help them. No one can prepare you for Aggy.

Our OL was just pathetic tonight. Horrendous.
Panjandrum - January 6, 2012
Very much so
Aside from the mental mistakes, dropped passes and shoddy special teams play, I felt the one clear physical difference in the game was their d-line against our O-line. Every play our LT was just being driven back 5 yards by their RE. Every play.
CT-K-Stater - January 7, 2012
Does anyone know why our longsnapper was suspended for tonights game?

look man, congrats.
I drove through your state in Sept. for the first time in a long time. Beautiful state. Even dropped in Fayettville to see for myself how “good of a fit culturally” Arkansas would relate to Big12 country. dropped by the Stadium. Neat campus.
You know I had pipe dreams of you in our conference (yea I know that’s why I said pipe dreams). And well it was about what I expected. It geographically felt like a tweener state. Just like MO. Woulda loved to have ya, but some things just aren’t meant to be. Kind of like you on this board for the next 24hrs. It’s just not fitting right now. Feel free to come around later, just please give us the recuperation time to bounce back from a loss, would ya?
GTcat - January 7, 2012
Arky would be closer to almost everyone in the Big 12 than almost any SEC schools
This was back before anyone left the Big 12 and I was ok if we left.
Then the shit hit the fan. We’ll happily stay here.

Panjandrum - January 6, 2012
The SEC had three really great teams this year. The Big 12 had one great one and three really good ones.
However, top to bottom, the Big 12 was better. The SEC East was garbage this year. Vandy went to a bowl for God’s sake.
Panjandrum - January 6, 2012
All you really need to say about the SEC East is ...
Mizzou is the favorite next year right beside South Carolina.
Itchy n Scratchy - January 6, 2012
And Georgia
Itchy n Scratchy - January 6, 2012
Only in Missouri fans minds.
You won’t find anyone that is paid to give opinions make that prediction.
El Kabong!!! - January 6, 2012
Mizzou will get crushed in SEC
I say WVU and TCU is an upgrade fans are much more classy.
RZB1 - January 6, 2012
Ummmmm....
I will say WVU & TCU fans are classy.
miz_zou - January 6, 2012
No, in Boise St's mind too!
astrosmurf - January 6, 2012
Which is hardly evidence that it is wrong
As people who are paid to give opinions tend to care less whether they ever are right.
Not going to get into it on a KSU board, but the Big XII was very comparable to the SEC this year, especially top to bottom.
MU'97 - January 7, 2012
Vandy was good this year.
Georgia won 11, South Carolina won 11, Arky won 11, Alabama won 11, LSU won 13. Everyone but Ole Miss and Kentucky went to a bowl.
Is that the definition you use of failures?
El Kabong!!! - January 6, 2012
*coughs* Tennessee *coughs*
Stubob72556 - January 7, 2012
I dunno, 80% representation of conference in bowl games was pretty good

GTcat - January 7, 2012
Looking at the conferences as a whole.
SEC has more BCS wins & bowl wins. I don’t like it but its the truth.
RZB1 - January 6, 2012
What are you trying to prove?
No one here said the Big 12 was better.
The Big 12 and the SEC are the two best conferences in college football. The SEC, currently, has a lot of momentum and is riding a great wave of success.
So, congrats on that.
Panjandrum - January 6, 2012
Too bad the NCAA is a gutless organization too scared to follow their own rules
There isn’t a clean school in that conference.

Like maybe, “With a one armed QB, and your OL is played by mascots.”
You guys act like we live on the Equator. Manhattan isn’t that far north of Fayetteville or Lexington.
El Kabong!!! - January 6, 2012
Have you done any research on the difference in climate for the latitudes? Or are you just posting?
For example Lincoln, NE is much colder than Manhattan, KS and it is only a 2 hour travel time. Mahattan is much cooler than Stillwater, OK (approximately same latitude as U of Ark).
Playing when it is in the 40F is much more difficult when you are used to warmer weather. The last time we played Texas in MHK, it was chilly and we won big. The previous time to this year, aTm lost big. Both times is was cold, not chilly but cold. we are used to it, but it does effect play if you are not used to it.
We loved snow days when I was growing up because we could play football and have fun in the snow.
Anon_the_younger - January 6, 2012
Dude I live on the Gulf Coast and it was in the 20's last week.
It also gets cold here, I promise you.
El Kabong!!! - January 6, 2012
Yeah, and they probably canceled school because of it.
Let’s not act like it’s equivalent.
TB - January 6, 2012
I've lived in FL
And when the low temps are measured in hours is much different than when it gets cold for extended periods of time.
I dislike NE temperatures a great deal, so I know what I’m talking about. Have you ever spent time in a place where you only have 9 days above freezing for 3 months? I have and although KS is cold it is not semi-frozen tundra.
Playing football in cold weather, i.e. below 50F, is much different than playing when the weather is nice. Like I said come play in Nov/Dec and see how the weather effect play.
Anon_the_younger - January 6, 2012

Anon_the_younger - January 7, 2012
I doubt it's very humid at the higher elevations
TB - January 7, 2012
960 ft in elev.
Looks like Morgantown summer average high is in the 80’s.
They will not like early season games in TX, OK or KS.
Anon_the_younger - January 7, 2012
I'm guessing with all the trees in the mountains in that state + valleys
There’s plenty of places for moisture to not escape from while also being warm. I lived in Nashville for a winter, spring and summer.
GTcat - January 7, 2012
Aug in KS.
One of my classmates did a report on high heat incidence days. KS had as high of ranking as any state in the SE.
For example. KS will regularly see temps above 100F in Jul and Aug, in Manhattan (in a river valley) there is also 50%+ humidity.
Anon_the_younger - January 7, 2012
Kansas - a strange state
Can be ungodly cold and hotter than hell – gets windy quite a bit as well – like in tornadoes!
Snide Aside - January 7, 2012
I don't know about all that
Top to bottom I wouldn’t make that statement.
BlackCats - January 6, 2012 via mobile
Ole Miss was terrible, along with Kentucky.
Everyone else was pretty sporty and made a bowl if I’m not mistaken.
You got to remember, Arky was at best the 4th best team in the conference this year.
El Kabong!!! - January 6, 2012
Really?
Not trying to pick a fight here, but I thought the consensus was that Arkansas was #3. Are you putting South Carolina ahead of them?
Ahearn Alley - January 6, 2012
I defy you to name me an SEC school other than Alabama and LSU that was better than Arkansas this year
TB - January 6, 2012
forget it, Al From Dadeville is in 100% troll mode now too.
Itchy n Scratchy - January 6, 2012
Georgia, USC, and Arky all had equal records in the same conference
playing against the same teams. They all lost to LSU and Alabama.
El Kabong!!! - January 6, 2012
What world are you living in?
In reality, USC didn’t play either LSU or Alabama and lost to Arky by 16. Nice try, though.
Ahearn Alley - January 6, 2012
Georgia also did not play Alabama
Maybe you should fact check before posting next time.

LOL - OK, I'm good with that.
However, you are right about one thing – Texas WAS responsible for Arkansas leaving the Conference. And the reason was called the “Game of the Century” – the results prompting Frank Broyles to say “no mas”, we are sick of Texas and we’re leaving for a weaker conference! :-)

This loss can be a big motivator for our team next season. It leaves them hungry for more, rather than everyone just rewarding and praising them everywhere they go.

The only game I ever attended in Arkansas just reinforced everything we know about their fan base. They taunted our players with racial slurs and the fans threw things – nickels, pennies and glass bottles -at the team on the sideline.
They are just a classless bunch. I had no problem with their departure to the SEC.

if we didn’t give them their 1st 3 pts and the refs gave them the next 7. Ten points was too much to overcome. Our defense was playing lights out early. And we missed Meshak, — I think it limited what we could do and the packages we could run.
But proud of the effort

Lets go CATS!
see you guys tomorrow for the hoops thread!

Tough loss Cats. This is Synders first year back right? I have said it before but he should have been hands down Coach of the Year. He is pure class. You guys gave a bright future.
Aaron.50cal - January 6, 2012
thanks
Snyder’s 3rd year back
Furnace76 - January 6, 2012
I agree.
El Kabong!!! - January 6, 2012
Third year back. Thanks.
See, guys, this is a good visitor.
Panjandrum - January 6, 2012
This is his 3rd year?
Wow, well regardless he brought K-state football back.
Aaron.50cal - January 6, 2012

thanks for stopping by!
powercat12 - January 6, 2012
Enjoyed reading your blog throughout the game.
Thank you.
Aaron.50cal - January 6, 2012
We appreciate it. You're welcome back any time.
Panjandrum - January 6, 2012
Can we trade tamu for you guys?
Aaron.50cal - January 6, 2012
Works for me.
But I grew up rooting for Bama.
Thanks for the kind words.
Anon_the_younger - January 6, 2012
Sorry, we're proud Big 12 members.
You’re stuck with Aggy.
And thanks for stopping by.
TB - January 6, 2012
Bummer....
Well run the Big 12 next year. Later Cat fans.
Aaron.50cal - January 6, 2012
We intend to.
BlackCats - January 7, 2012 via mobile
NO TAKEBACKS.
You just got the worst university that competes in major college athletics.
You may want to invest in some Hazmat suits. Your conference just got toxic.
Panjandrum - January 6, 2012
What he means to say is
A&M sucks.
BlackCats - January 7, 2012 via mobile
Actually OU sucks, tAMU is just....well, shitty!
Snide Aside - January 7, 2012
no offense
I actually like this league. I know it probably looks disfunctional from the outside, but we figured out how to be the little engine that can. No need to set ourselves back half a decade. It only took us 8 decades to get to where we were in the 90s.
GTcat - January 7, 2012
Thank you
And good luck to ‘Bama. Only because I want to see OSU get some votes for the national championship, but still, I’ll be pulling for you.
Ahearn Alley - January 6, 2012
Appreciate it.
Anon_the_younger - January 6, 2012
Hate the loss, loved the season
That was one hell of a season for the football team. I’m damned proud to be a K-State fan!
powercat12 - January 6, 2012
As am I.
Never happier to be a Wildcat
IndianaCatFan - January 6, 2012
Arkansas fan here saying congrats Kansas State on a great year and hard-fought game.
Showed a lot of grit coming back and making things way too close for comfort for my Hogs.
RazorHawk - January 6, 2012
Much appreciated.
Y’all have a helluva team.
TB - January 6, 2012
I thought it could have been much worse with how well Arkansas throws the ball and Wilson's skill.
Thanks for the kind words. Great season for Arkansas.
Panjandrum - January 6, 2012
Your QB is under appreciated. Some might sweet passes.
We were out played and coached tonight.
Congratulations on the win.
Anon_the_younger - January 6, 2012
Congrats guys
Y’all had quite an amazing season… too bad we won’t see each other next season.
miz_zou - January 6, 2012
Damn shame
TB - January 6, 2012
But we will see you tomorrow
Should be a good one.
Ahearn Alley - January 6, 2012
Hope so!
miz_zou - January 6, 2012
It's tough for me
Because objectively, Mizzou’s style of play is so much more fun to watch, but I’m well aware that the uglier the game is, the better chance K-State has to win.
Ahearn Alley - January 6, 2012
I honestly expect y'all to win tomorrow
miz_zou - January 6, 2012
We hope but it will depend on which team shows up.
Mizzou I think is fairly consistent this season, so that will help y’all.
Anon_the_younger - January 6, 2012
If the Mizzou team that showed up against ODU & illilljidafji shows up
Then we lose bad. (sorry, can’t type their dirty name)
miz_zou - January 6, 2012
Beat KU twice and it will make up for it.
Anon_the_younger - January 6, 2012
That's all I ever want haha
miz_zou - January 6, 2012
It was a pretty good game
KSU was just never in it’s comfort zone tonight
IndianaCatFan - January 6, 2012
GO STATE
Amazing season.
@xmcgraw - January 6, 2012
Shout out to all the classy fans stopping by and leaving comments
thanks for keeping it classy guys.
powercat12 - January 6, 2012
KSU....We'll carry the banner high!!!!
IndianaCatFan - January 6, 2012
Purple Kansas boys left it on the field tonight.
They are to be commended.
Snide Aside - January 6, 2012
Something to think about...
The core of our team comes back next year, and we’ve recruited really, really well thus far. Hopefully, we finish strong because what we’re infusing in is greater than what is going out.
We picked up a really nice tackle prospect and Foketi will probably get a sixth year. I think things look good in 2012.
Also, you never know, Bryce may come back.
Panjandrum - January 6, 2012
agreed
Cats should be a top 3 team next season
powercat12 - January 6, 2012
in the Big XII that is
powercat12 - January 6, 2012
I'm hoping for another ten win season. That would be just special.
And then we get Sams in 2013 for our first season post castle press box.
:drools:
Panjandrum - January 6, 2012
will be tough next year but...
we return a TON of talent and should be even better. I’ll shit my pants if we can win 10 games again next year.
IndianaCatFan - January 6, 2012
Good game, K State. I wish you guys good luck in the Big 12 next year
Hope your players make a full & speedy recovery. Go Hogs!
Stubob72556 - January 6, 2012
Thanks.
Panjandrum - January 6, 2012
Stubob's class.
Anon_the_younger - January 6, 2012
Seemed like tonight that the offense never really got in a good rhythm
we had one good drive and that seemed like that was it. Colin never looked comfortable.
powercat12 - January 6, 2012
Here is the way I see it next year - from a UT fans perspective
Assuming that WVU joins the conference, we will finish in this order – top to bottom:
1. Texas (with average QB play)
2. OU (sucks)
3. KSU
4. WVU
5. TCU
6. TTU
7. Baylor (If RBII goes to The League)
8. Okie Lite
9. Iowa State
10. Kansas
UT will lose one game next year to KSU (we are cursed with you A-holes!) :-)
Snide Aside - January 6, 2012
So, what you really mean when you take the homer goggles off, is
1. KSU
2. OU (sucks)
3. Texas
4. etc
jonfmorse - January 6, 2012
No, I never really mean't to say that!
Snide Aside - January 6, 2012
You know what's really going to happen.
Roll Damn Toad or Country Roads waltzes in and wins the title.
jonfmorse - January 6, 2012
What about...Country Rhoads???
God, I kill myself sometimes.
TB - January 6, 2012
Apt description though.
Anon_the_younger - January 6, 2012
Roll Toad!
Go team purple!
Anon_the_younger - January 6, 2012
LOL - hardly, both TCU and WVU will wonder WTF - and then bolt to the Moutain West.
Snide Aside - January 6, 2012
I'm not sure if Ok State drops that much
powercat12 - January 6, 2012
They need a big play receiver replacement.
Anon_the_younger - January 6, 2012
Arkie fan thanks y'all for a great game
Congratulations to you for your solid season and your class-act coach. Sorry for any Arkansas or SEC trolls here tonight, and hope Williams is going to be o.k.
Arkie_G-Unit - January 6, 2012
No need to apologize for others.
Appreciate your comments.
TB - January 7, 2012
Thanks, don't worry about the trolls
Enough Arkie fans have shown class in victory that we think well of y’all.
Anon_the_younger - January 7, 2012
No way you are an arky fan - who are you really? :-)
Snide Aside - January 7, 2012
Just a fan of college football
But especially the Arkansas variety.

Snide Aside - January 7, 2012
I, myself and even though stunningly handsome and intelligent, have been know to troll a time or two.
Which is acceptable if it is creative and subtle. It can be an art form when done right.
Snide Aside - January 7, 2012
Rec'd that!
astrosmurf - January 7, 2012
Unfortunately not all understand that subtle trolling is an art, while blunt trolling is crude and distgusting.
Anon_the_younger - January 7, 2012
Rec'd that too!
astrosmurf - January 7, 2012
Blunt trolling is mostly just stupid!
Generally it is crude, inane, boring, profane, pointless, irrelevant and…..wait, are we talking about the aggies?
Snide Aside - January 7, 2012
I go to different sites to broaden my opinion and learn, not to PROVE MY POINT!!!
I can always tell a troll, because they always look to prove you wrong, no matter what you say, and their on your site.
astrosmurf - January 7, 2012
There are some good trolls.
EDSBS has plenty that are expert at it, and I mean ones that get a response without you realize that is what they were going for.
There are a couple on here, that you have to watch as well.
Anon_the_younger - January 7, 2012

Idiot fans do not stick around long. And if your post gets a T-Rex or spider, you are doing it wrong.
Also be prepared to read quickly when the commertariat is in form.

At TexAgs, aggies troll themselves!
Snide Aside - January 7, 2012
Anyone else like me
when we crossed midfield on that last drive, get upset when we didn’t call a timeout after that first snap right around 1:03 left on 2nd and 15? I just knew we’d hurry up and patch together a crappy play that wouldn’t result in a first down, plus drain the clock. Don’t think we would have won persay, but thought it would go a lot further than what we ended up doing.
GTcat - January 7, 2012
Found this on Arkansas Expats
Stubob72556 - January 7, 2012
I asked them to email the image to me. Love those old-timey programs.
TB - January 7, 2012
Well, all you lovely purple Kansas people
It’s late and I must hit the shower. Congrats, once again, on a hard fought game and you held the Big 12 banner high. Arkansas had all of you they could stand and are saying “no mas”.
Snide Aside - January 7, 2012
Thanks for stopping by Snide, for your kindness we promise to only beat you guys
6 out of the next 8 games in football. I kid, I kid. I keep wondering when it’s going to end. Though I like our chances at home in 2012 vs y’all unless the conf office decides to do some schedule jockying (please come to our conf in 2012 WVU!), though I think 2013 UT’s probably in the nat’l title hunt again.
GTcat - January 7, 2012
Hey, all you Big 12 guys, its been fun. I live out west now, but I grew up around Wichita.
Any chance you could help us get into the Big 12? Anyway, had to try. Thanks for lettin me hang out. You guys are a class act. Congrats on a good season. Remember, you won the Texas Championship. Sorry Snide. Talk to ya next time….
astrosmurf - January 7, 2012
I grew up west of Wichita myself. Thanks for stoppin by, hope you didn't feel too much
like a stranger. Keep your turf watered, don’t want it lose its hue. I think about the only way we invite you to our conference if you can somehow rearrange a map so that Colorado borders Washington and Idaho borders Kansas. I don’t own any college paraphenallia outside of my KSU stuff but I have thought about buying a Georgia Tech hat (because I could wear my initials on my head) and a Boise State hat (if I could find one with that grey oversized Bronco that shows up on 1 side of your helmet sometimes) from time to time…
I’ve appreciated Boise for some time. 2007 Fiesta probably sealed the deal, but I appreciated them before that. I just hate our BCS system. It’s hard enough to go undefeated in a single season, but I feel like Boise has to go undefeated 3 consecutive years to prove their worth to be considered a candidate for the title. And if you lose 1 game in those 3 years, that cycle has to start over from scratch. I hope your athletic department gets great frequent flyer miles!
GTcat - January 7, 2012
Thanks GT, Come visit OBNUG sometime, everybody is real nice(no swearin)use BW(bad word) instead.
But we’d like more input from Big 12 fans. Nebraska didn’t like us, and OU fans still think their superior, go figure. And why the heck is Colorado in the Pac 12 anyway?
Boise is a great town, and the blue field is a fun experience. Just think, we’ll be flying right by Kansas quite a bit???? Were closer than WV aren’t we? Just sayin. Over & out….
astrosmurf - January 7, 2012
I'll think about it.
I think part of the appreciation is Boise’s just the exaggerated version of KSU. They rose from the ashes, and of course are much smaller. Lot’s of similarities, just seems like BSU took those similarities to the nth degree.
GTcat - January 7, 2012
Hey GT, I take that as a complement. That being said,
I grew up in Kansas, and don’t think I don’t know about the KU/KSU rivalry. Cities & towns be divided. However, at the same time, I also know what great schools they both are. I can say that without too much backlash, now. I’m far enough away.
However, all kidding aside, in comparison Boise St does not yet possess the century old tradition, greek & academics you have there. They are close to OSU, and now TCU, and are most certainly making great strides to narrow the gap. It would speed that process up, if somehow we could also be a part of the Big !2.
The Big East is a good move for now, and might turn out to have even better results than we could have expected? All that is an if? The Big 12 now, would be PERFECT!!!!
IMHO, K St is a bit/lot better than KU in football, and KU is a bit/lot better than K St in BBall. Do I have that right? If not, why do I find myself rooting for each as such?
Anyway, thanks for your response, I like the connection with my roots..
astrosmurf - January 8, 2012

Anon_the_younger - January 7, 2012
Great news.
It was a very good effort by K State. You guys should be proud of your team.
MU'97 - January 7, 2012
Great year K-State! Snyder has y'all on the right track no surprise there (keep the smash mouth style going, I like that style)....
Was impressed by all the Big 12 solidarity on the thread. I have seen a lot of comments on other blogs suggesting that is not always the case. Good luck next year, beat the Horns again and always.
mjtig - January 7, 2012
Thanks man, Now you guys can help to and beat the sooners in Dallas next year
EMAW 4 Ever - January 7, 2012
Well a disappointing game to say the least.
Didn’t play our best game of the year, that’s for sure. Was really impressed by the defensive effort, though. It’s too bad ’shake and Hartman got hurt. I thought they were both playing the best games of their career up until their injuries.
The receivers were awful. Klein played alright. Couldn’t get much going on the ground, but threw the ball nicely. I’m pained to wonder what would have happened if those balls weren’t dropped.
Anyway, credit to Arkansas. They’ve got a good squad. And against a team of that caliber, you just can’t make the mistakes we made last night.
Phenomenal season. Was a lot of fun in these parts this year. Thanks as always to TB, Pan, BC, morse, and Ahearn for the hard work. Can’t wait til next year!
Now, Frank and the Junkyard Cats, please don’t allow this to be the worst K-State sports week in recent memory!
