Schedule

[meow meow]

Like wtf is this thing.  5 Saturdays between September and November that the Cats won't even have a game.  2 Thursday games.  Giant woof.

What crawled up your underwear this morning?

Extra time before Auburn and OU sounds good to me.

[SEK_EMAW]

I don't understand the hate towards Thurs night games.  What's not to like about a couple of 4 day weekends revolving around Cats football?

[meow meow]

Having 1 Saturday with no game in the fall sucks enough, what am I gonna do with 5 of them?  That's all.

Party your ass off and cheer for teams that are playing OU and Baylor.

I also like Saturday games, 2xmeow.

When we don't play on Saturdays I make a ton of food and sit on my ass all day watching football. It's pretty awful, guys.

[UCHADBRO]

I prefer the Saturday games. The Thursday Auburn game makes it highly unlikely that I can get off of work to attend 

[meow meow]

I'm fine with Thursday Auburn, I'll have a 4 day weekend.  But still, I'll wake up Saturday mornings, watch gameday, and know that my Cats have no game to look forward to that day TIMES 5.  Seems rediculous to me and makes me sad.

My manager knows there is no way in hell I'll be there that day or on Friday. He's already marked it in his calendar. It was part of our negotitation when I was hired on. That being, this job can get bent when K-state is playing.

The schedule is fine except for the auburn game.

they are rough ridin' stupid

[michigancat]

never said that, I just don't like weekday games, yeah good exposure and all that but I dont like it

[slobber]

I like a schedule that puts the cats in great position to win a butt load of games. I think this schedule does that. I will have to wait 2 more years to watch the cats play in WV becasue of the Thursday night game*, but whatever. Just WIN 'EM ALL!

*(Not going to WV for a night game and getting myself killed or raped.)

Yeah, our schedule (not counting home/away) is about as good as you can have it. Our presumably two toughest games have over a week of preparation prior to them.

But the reason I don't like Thursday games is that the tailgating isn't the same. Tailgating is half of what makes football so awesome (IMO)

Yes, tailgating is better on a Saturday. Also, thanks for clarifying about the home/away portion not being accurate as it relates to my comment. Some other people would have made fun of me becasue we don't have a great schedule for home/away. We have a great schedule for where our bye weeks and extended breaks are.

someone said that, good grief.

I definitely enjoy watching Thurs night games as long as it isn't the cats.  I'm guessing Auburn was all in on a Thurs night road game at the bill knowing over half the fans would have to take off work early and travel 2, 3, maybe even 4 hours just to make kickoff.  However, I think Ah-burned! is going to learn a hard lesson about K-State loyalty on this particular Thursday night.

Does anyone remember if the atmosphere is greatly affected by Thursday night games? I remember skipping a few important classes to make the Thursday night Nebraska game, but I dont remember if it was a less enthusiastic crowd.

we got absolutely obliterated and IIRC I called for Snyder's retirement that night so it may have been less enthusiastic than other big games.

Attendance won't be a problem for the students who I'm certain will be in good spirits .  Not sure the same can be said for all the KC and Wichita cats who (regrettably) have to be back at work the next day.
