Because they simply don't give a rat's ass about getting better.  The post-game comments I heard left me with the distinct impression that Prince & Co. are just fine with eeking out a 1-point win over a I-AA team that played well enough that KSU should have lost by a couple of TDs.  Isn't this like Bill Snyder's lesson #1?  If you don't give a &@#%, you won't be improving much at all.

    You can't be racist and like basketball.

Defensive POG Ian Campbell:

Quote
So, can the Wildcats celebrate?

"Absolutely," Campbell said. "A win's a win. A lot of D-I teams playing a I-AA may have backed down and said, 'I can't believe this is happening.' But they're a solid team. I knew they had playmakers, and they did a good job."


DT Quentin Echols:

Quote
“People might look at it like we should be ashamed, that we should be sad,” Echols said, “but at least we know we can win a close game.”

Relax.  Wait for the results of the next 2.

Lets see if they can run the ball and protect a little better.

All that matters is the W.   Jim Tressell I believe won that award a couple years ago.

    THE b IS NOT CAPITALIZED

Do you think it would be better if they had lost?

A 1 point win doesn't seem to have woken them up.
I'm telling you, this is not ANYTHING like the team from the beginning of conference play. You will see no more blowouts like what happened in OOC.  If we lose, it will not because these kids gave up, and it will be at the buzzer. -Rodless, before 97-70
