GAMEDAY THREAD: Houston @ Kansas State ESPN 2 11:00 10/28

-17 point dogs. K state just rode TCU and put them away wet. We lost a close one to a very good UT. So many emotions on our side on this one.

But I have to move on from Saturday. This is going to show you what kind of coach Holgy has become. Can he take all that spent emotion and heartbreak and keep the team going or will we come out flat, on the road, in 40 degree weather?

Player of the week was an offensive lineman.

Our first true road game, i.e. leaving the state of Texas.
This is a well coached team. I would love for our players to still have that fire in them knowing we almost took down the whorns, but I think Kstate covers and we go back to reality. Please prove me wrong Coogs.

This game will tell a lot IMHO. Do we keep the MO going and come in a play competitively a very good Kansas team current B12 champs or we go back to hum drum. This is the most intriguing game of the season as far as I am concerned. If we get blown out I think it’s time to read the writing on the wall.

Plus it is a weird team to get hyped for. No real history, feels like a grown up east Carolina or UAB back when in old CUsa.

2 QB systems never work long term. May the football gods curse K State for trying this, they will eventually. May it be our game please!

The football gods owe us.

heard yesterday on the radio that Ok Lite is rotating (3) QB’s? is that right?

I haven’t watched them play yet this year but that seems even more challenging.

Bowman (former Texas Tech qb that lit up No’D’s defense), Rangel and Gundy Jr.

We beat WVU on a last second Hail Mary from 50 yards out just 2 weeks ago.

I’ve been pessimistic all season, so why change now? Yes, we’ve looked like a legit Big 12 team the past two games. If we keep that up, we should be able to win at least 3 of these last 5 and get bowl eligible. All things considered, I’d say that’s a successful season. Baylor, Cincy are both winnable, and we have a puncher’s chance against OSU and at Orlando.

But I am afraid we’ll see an emotional letdown this week. Hope I’m wrong.

Even if we are at our best, winning at K-State (who’s playing really well) in cold rainy weather is going to be tough.

If we can beat the elements, the environment, and win the game, there isn’t any reason we can’t go undefeated the rest of the way.

Well given our history, we’d probably lose to Cincy still lol

They still owe us for Major, Dana the first, CUSA, Big East hopes, Joe Montana, Miami, Helton, Sumlin’s Southern Miss game, Briles Tulsa game, the SWC, continuity hires, 0-11, etc.
