Kansas State Football / The Run
« on: June 23, 2016, 12:19:50 PM »
In the OJ Simpson 30 for 30 doc, Jeffrey Toobin says, ""If you were a football fan in the late '60s and somebody said to you, 'Do you remember the run?,' it was just one run. It set O.J. apart from everyone."

It was a 64-yard TD run with 10 minutes left in the 4th quarter vs UCLA. It ended up being the deciding score to win the PAC-8 and head to the Rose Bowl (and the win had a big effect on the AP poll champ).

It had huge implications, but my hot take is: for something that gets to be called "The Run", the run itself isn't terribly impressive.

What is the best college football run ever? Include the YouTube video, if possible.

Is there anything oscar could do to get your eyes back on this team this year?

Here's what would grab my interest:

1. Bench Jevon. This isn't about fouling the 3-point shooter or throwing the inbounds pass away. This is about a point guard who makes terrible passes and can't shoot.

2. Increasing Foster's shot attempts to a Kobe-like rate.

But really, those changes would only hold my interest for a game or two. To watch the full conference slate, I'd need to see:

3. Installing that crazy Grinnell D3 offense where you cherry-pick and shoot a million 3s per game, or basically any offense where we shoot 3s non-stop. Like, Hurt and Foster run a pick and pop on every possession. I realize we aren't full of sharpshooters, but if you're going to lose almost all of your conference games anyway, we may as well start chucking 3 balls.

4. Focus on setting a K-State record during each game. Feed Foster the ball to see if he can break Askia Jones' 62-point game record, or his 14 3-pointers record. See if any of our idiots can break the 16 assist record held by Keith Frazier from 1976 - just pick one guy as the designated assist man, and instruct all players to shoot immediately after he passes. You see where I'm going with this. Ignore winning the game and go for the records. I do this in video games sometimes - it's fun!

Subsequently, you tore crap up during KSU's Titletown run in the 2012-13 season. You really put me in my place. I will try to remember you for your overall studliness that season -- draining 3's, dropping dimes, and saying, "I should never have let that guy get that rebound...I mean, it’s Kevin Young."

Godspeed, Shane Southwell, you beautiful bastard!  :ksu:

Jerome Tang Coaches Kansas State Basketball / Best/Worst Court Designs
« on: January 18, 2013, 01:27:08 PM »
Can anyone find a court worse than Oregon's?




I dig the Ohio State midcourt logo. Same idea as Texas A&M, but a more reasonable size.

Kansas State Football / Bill Burr slams TCU, Alabama tucks
« on: November 09, 2012, 11:30:03 AM »
On this week’s podcast, Bill Burr talked about attending the Alabama/LSU game:

Quote
I didn’t like the way the Alabama fans dressed. It reminded me of TCU, “C’mon Frogs!” Where they do that crap where they all dress like these junior banker date rapists. They go to a football game, right? They wear Dockers, boat shoes, and then they have like a rough ridin' polo shirt that they tuck in. I swear to God, it’s like, “Are you serious right now? You’re from Alabama! Who are you kidding?” I can see if you took off your Alabama crap and you went to someplace else and tried to pull it off, but eventually people are gonna know that you’re from Alabama. And don’t even eff with me. I’ve been to Alabama - the “civilized” parts. I didn’t go down to Macon or Mobile or all that rough ridin' crap where... I don’t even think they know Martin Luther King’s dead yet. They’re probably still having rough ridin' meetings...”We gotta get ‘em! Why you think they took over the NBA?! He’s gotta be somewhere! He’s like Elvis - he ain’t dead yet!”

Kansas State Football / Snyder and the cricket

Snyder had his postgame face on. Even when a cricket jumped from a TV reporter's forearm to Snyder's left cheek, the Wildcats coach simply flicked the bug away with a bored nonchalance.

Is there video of this? Can somebody make a "brush your shoulders off" -type .gif from it right away, please? TIA.
