I haven't seen this anywhere else on here or otherwise until now.
It may not be surprising given today's world...
...but it IS news. And it could effect ISU if KSU doesn't handle their situation properly.

 

[Cycsk]

So doesn't 20 cases exceed the limit? Or is it different if they are "younger players," presumably redshirts?

Should show as a win for ISU if they have to forfeit. Staying healthy is part of the game.

It came up in the Kansas State thread last Tuesday. But is was buried pretty deep in the thread.

I've had it K-State +8.5/9.0 for this one after watching the oSu game.

I assume they would reschedule for 12 December if the game isn't played next Saturday. Just like the Okie St - Baylor game.

I had hoped after week 3 that we'd be playing KSU on December 12th. Just at a different location.

Hopefully another week is enough time to get our game in next week.

 

[khardbored]

Hopefully they have enough players to play. 2 bye weeks in a row I'm afraid would mess up our preparations.

Be careful what you wish for...

Initially stated 8 players with Covid and then later upped to 20. Apparently were younger "practice squad" players. They have lost two tight ends but we all remember OC Courtney Messingham from the Rhoades years so he will adjust.....

@surly any updates?

“Younger players”. In other words, guess who decided to blow off their bubble?

Now, you are 18/19 and know you won’t play and that cheerleader winks at you. You aren’t thinking with your top head anymore.
