I was at my Great Aunt Nelly's with my Grandma in Chicago for the Big 12 Championship game (I was in 8th grade) and I cried my eyes out. Aunt Nelly couldn't understand 1. Why we'd watch a channel that had Bob Costas on it (eff that lib(?), right?) and 2. why I got so emotional over the game. My grandma had to put her in her place.

How was Bob Costas involved with a game that was on ABC? Was your Great Aunt Nelly starting to lose it??

I don't think she watched much sports. She probably brought it up off hand.

Maybe we were flipping channels? What channel was the Ucla and Miami game on that day?

looks like ESPN or a local broadcast of ESPN...

Texas game was like holy crap, did that just happen

Was just a complete dismantling. If anyone thought we got in Geno Smith's head, that was patty cake compared to Ricky Williams that day.

Is this the game we ran - and recovered - an onside kick after our first score, or perhaps coming out of half?

This Bob Costas thing is a real mystery. I'm going to go with that Aunt Nelly didn't know a lot about sports, so she just brought up the only person she knew, who she really hated for some crazy reason (probably Rush Limbaugh told her to hate him). Either way, Aunt Nelly, stfu about Bob, My soul is currently being crushed.

I was at fox and hound in Dallas..... I got thrown out at the end of the game because I gave 75% of the bar crap when we were kicking their ass...when they came back I was out numbered and had to take their crap. I didn't handle well... I had called to make reservations for the National Championship.. I, I, I, still haven't forgiven Bishop... Sorry.

I was young when this happened so forgive the naive question. Was our schedule kind of pud? Like not KU Orange Bowl pud, but sort of pud?

The rankings of our opponents are listed in the op, and those margin of victories are all basically half time scores

scoring 100 was easily on the table in all the non cons

Onside kick is right at the 35:00 mark for those who are interested.

I had completely forgotten we burned 2 redshirts that game... And on consecutive possessions.

Jackyl played in the middle of Aggieville the night of the UT game. They were on a Guiness Book 2 shows per day for 60 days record or something.

Hey guys remember this thread? 'Member all the good feelings and how just thinking of 1998 puts a big smile on your face and how much hope and optimism there is at the beginning of a brand new KSU Cats football season?? Yeah me too man, me too.

20 years ago we were ranked #2 and about to beat Nebraska for the first time in roughly 600 years. I could barely sleep the night before that game because I was so excited. Fast forward to today and now we're pretty darn sure we can beat KU but at the same time glad it's a home game!

living in Iowa City in 98.....watched the championship game.....was a smoker at the time and my apartment was ground floor......was watching through the glass, stepped on the cigarette butt and by the time i walked back into the apartment, Bishop fumbled.....it all went bad from there.........20 years later i have never watched the replay, just too painful.......i honestly may go to my grave with this unresolved pain

Was this the greatest day in KSU defensive history?

Crazy watching UT just run him straight into the line over and over again.
