*** Official IOWA STATE vs #19 Kansas State Game(Day) Thread ***

[jsb]

What?

They didn't make the trip. Campbell said in post game (I'm paraphrasing here) that they are likely headed to the portal.

 

[ClonesTwenty1]

What?

Transfer portal. Coach said that’s likely why they didn’t travel with team because of “personal” issues.

Too afraid of competition?!?

This has to be a Top 10 Play on SportsCenter, the more I look at it, the stop and go by Noel, he completely frozed all those K-State players to let him break free down the sideline.

That was sure pretty! And to make it more dramatic, we had just gotten a penalty to negate a good gain (iirc), making it 3rd and 16 on that play. What an absolute game changer that one play was!

And what a stud block by Brahmer!!!

The announcers rightfully gave Hansen props for blitz pickup on the TD pass to Higgins. They brought a LB and Hansen stepped up and just crushed him. It was a very physical block.

I will look for it. Those blocks are very endearing to any coach and QB!

Post game is hilarious. Heather and Whitver, whose mic keeps cutting out. Cyclone Jerry has proclaimed our coaches best in the country. Helmet Guy also has called. So now it will just be Heather monologue? Bits and pieces of words by Whitver maybe.

Haha. I listened to some of that, yes. CW does makes it work with his experience.

I wonder if Brent Blum would consider filling in when CW can't be there? Not that this happens too often.

******** programs go 6-6

 

[Sigmapolis]

******** programs go 6-6

And one bad virus/round of food poisoning against Ohio to probably go 8-4.

Even leaving that out... 6-3 against the Big 12 is pretty ******* epic for where expectations started.

I rewatched the last 8 minutes. The last 2 minutes were coaching malpractice by Klieman.

1st and 10 on the 20 1:35 2 Timeouts
Incomplete
Designed Qb run???? Wtf
Clock running everyone looking flustered
Incomplete
4th and 8….no timeout incomplete

Left with 2 timeouts in his pocket and everyone disoriented the last 3 plays.

His decisions at the end of the Texas game were just as perplexing. Texas couldn't move the ball the entire 2nd half or OT and he tried to go for 2 instead of waiting them out in another OT.

Well that sucks. Both those guys have been pretty solid, especially Sanders. Sama isn't an every down back and Hanson doesn’t have any burst. Be surprised if we get over 50 yards rushing tonight

Solid analysis.

Made a 4th down on that last drive while around his own 20. Ballsy. And it was a great play by Purchase on the final K-State pass on the last drive in the end zone. K-State had a chance.

I don't have any hand sanitizer in reach or I'd do it, but has anybody been to a Purple Kansas board to see how they're doing?

I'd never even look on their boards. Then I'd be like one of their creepy troll fans that come on this board to start crap because there's nothing better to do out in western Kansas.

 

[singsing]

Again, being a realist. Kansas State has to revert back to the losses with Oklahoma State and Texas which prevented them making the Big 12 title game. With Oklahoma State defeating BYU in a wild one let some wind out of their sails? Probably. But you definitely couldn’t tell that with KSU’s Will Howard. He wanted this win more than anyone on that last drive. I’m curious what bowl we get.

Kstate still had a lot to play for. We knocked them down a notch or two in bowl selection. Kstate fans are traveling somewhere a little colder and not as close to New years day with that loss, and I love it! Can't stand that school.

That was one of the best broadcast duos we have had in a while.

GREAT color commentary guy.
