We're going to absolutely throttle Vandy

[Dugout DickStone]

I can't imagine being so poor that I'd have to drive to Colorado from memphis

Stay in school kids

[mocat]

driving double digit hours is a nightmare

[pissclams]

Just fly you poor loser

And miss the home of Bob Dole .... perish the thought.

To segue, in restrospect might ya'll have been a bit over-confident in the throttling aspect of your predictions?

why wouldn't we be confident?
your pathetic team hasn't accomplished anything but playing doormat for the rest of your conference

I can't imagine being so poor that I'd have to drive to Colorado from memphis

There is a stage in life where one has the luxury of doing what one wants to do.  I've got five vacation residences in addition to my primary residence so have learned that the journey is as important as the destination.  We learn those things in a liberal arts education and it helps smooth over some of the bumps life throws one's way.  I know that I can't project when a tumbleweed will start tumbling but I've picked up a few life skills along the way.

I'm sitting here watching two dolphin pods from my 40 foot wraparound oceanfront balcony ... what's your view?

I'm trying to find your coach's post-game press conference video .. anyone have a link?

Imagine counting not only your home town homeless shelter but also the ones you have hitchhiked your way too 

[star seed 7]

Did we ever get a final pelt count?

I agree wholeheartedly.

I will also say that the KSU fans with whom I visited were very nice folks and I thought it was great that so many visited Nashville and had such a great time irrespective of football.

I also enjoy good message board banter from time to time!  This thread has been fun and ya'll give a good pre-game roasting.

This economy has been hard on certain segments of society

[pissclams]

i'm not saying it happened but wouldn't be surprised if snyder & co intentionally lost that game in an effort to send a message to the players as we head into the meaningful part of our schedule

Since no Vandy fans have come to our board to give us an tips about where to eat/what to do I'll pass some info along from my buddy who is a big shot in the country music business and lives in North Nashville.

1. Travel in groups around the stadium after dark. Apparently the area around Vanderbuilt is super sketchy and its not safe after the sun goes down.

2. There are no bar area's around the campus. Closest place to get a drink is downtown off broadway.

3. Vanderbuilt is a commuter school with no real fan base in Nashville, its basically the safety school for middle class kids from the burbs who can't get into UT.

fyi this is all fake news sad advice and you don't need an apostrophe in "areas"

Well I guess it all comes down to who you believe more, some random internet blogger named mocat or a big time country music executive who lives in Nashville. Choice is yours kat fans.

benj were you being serious with the response or just gEing?

[MakeItRain]

Someone asked me if beating k-state was "like beating Akron" and I told him that we haven't played Akron so I really didn't know.  But, I can say that beating lil'-k is about as satisfying as beating Middle Tennessee except we gave up 1 more point to lil'-k due to a ridiculous defensive breakdown.  Middle had a far more sophisticated, more multi-dimensional, offense so our defense was a good bit better in that game.

While I was obviously for Vandy this game, I generally pull for Southwest Conference teams so best of luck.

I pulled off I-70 at the Manhattan exit on my drive to Colorado last year to get gas but there wasn't a town there.

Where were you before the game? No confidence in Vandy, wonder why that was?

[NC Dores]

Thank you--for trying to win.

Kansas State is one of the best fan bases I've ever acknowledged.  You should seek to have multiple encounters with our Team--before college football ends.

We were really good, a long time ago.  But, the World is changing.

I wish that I'd known of this site prior to the game so that I could have engaged ya'll, shared recommendations, and enjoyed some good nature barb-trading.

That being said, I didn't know that KSU had many fans or this site.   We, admittedly, are probably consumed with the excellence of the SEC and don't cast our interest as far as we should.

As for your specific question about confidence.  I admit that with a 3-4 point spread in the game, that regardless of which side of the spread that I was on I wouldn't not have been sufficiently confident to start a thread entitled "We're going to absolutely throttle K-State."  Not only that, but I wouldn't have had 17 pages of folks agreeing with me.  I suggest that the confidence expressed in the thread was bordering on, to borrow a phrase, irrational exhuberance.  All the while, I appreciate a good troll.

I reiterate, that I was extremely expressed with the friendliness and sportsmanship of your fans.  I didn't encounter anyone who struck me as out of line in any way.  Congrats ..... that is in many ways the bigger game.

KyDore sounds throttled.

[meow meow]

sounds like we absolutely throttled vandy in the stands with kindness

[yoga-like_abana]

If KyDore would've shown his fat face around here before the game I would've offered to meet him at the Commodore Vanderbilt statue to give him a good old fashioned ass whoopin'

No that's no good; he may have enjoyed it a little too much.

the last i checked, there were two teams involved in this shitfest of a football game.  we're not the only ones to blame is what i'm saying and our expectations have been reset.  where you at?

[KyDore]

I don't know that it was such a bad football game.   There are often two perspectives on these things.  I was just really suprised that KSU had such a one-dimensional offense.

We don’t, but it undoubtedly became one-dimensional after about the 4th dropped pass.

I thought that I saw you mixing it up with someone outside a local eatery.

If you didn't think that was a horrible football game then you must be used to really terrible football, T's&p's vanderbelt fans
