I wouldn't say those were the "glory days"

I loved the old Logo. You could really tell what it was.

Sarcasmuch? Still waiting on old school wild wildcat emoticon.

So elite.
Mitch, I'm sorry for every mean thing I've ever said about you.
The stadium looked so horrible then. How did the program ever keep from becoming extinct?
-
how many 2012 jayhawks would make the 2 deep on the 1989 wildcat team?
-
look at all those 80s people :love:
-
Sunny Ray!!!!!

man oh man...
hypercolor, steve miller, elijah alexander, current kats coach michael smith, super young stan weber and the old bell all in one six minute video. color yourself lucky kstate fans of today who just got to see this.

#58 for UNT was rough ridin' dominating our left tackle.

My anecdotal story of the day, for that day is:
I actually went to the ku game that day with a buddy, afterwards we were at a party where some guys had the K-State game dialed up on the radio. When K-State scored the game winning TD, a bunch of ku guys at the party were really pi$$ed.
That's my: Cool Story Bro

Attendance is pretty good, considering we've not won in 31 games. Looks pretty similar to a KU game the last couple seasons.
-

Yeah, and our RB kept staying in to protect Straw's right side as #58 was blowing by our LT every play. :facepalm: that Straw didn't grab the RB and put him on his left to protect himself.
-
jesus I think I couldve played on that team
-
The thing that is unfortunately missing from this video is what came right before it: NTSU (as they were known then, I believe) threw for a totally improbably long bomb touchdown with like a minute and a half left, then celebrated in the end zone with the most tentative, pathetic dogpile I think I've ever seen.
:thumbs:
-
I almost got killed by that goal post.

Attendance was boosted by the fact it was Band Day, and there were a lot of high school bands there to perform on the field for the half-time show....including me. I was a freshman in high school and our band went up there on that fateful day which was the first KSU football game I had ever been to. I remember our bus was parked in the east parking lot which was nothing but gravel and dirt at that time. And after the game as we were in the bus ready to leave, that big hoard of students carrying the piece of the goalpost you see at the 5:30 mark came running by our bus whooping and hollering. Good times. :cheers:

Our QB looked ridiculous dropping back. Why did he back pedal like that?

Old KSU Kat games all have weird-ass drop-backs that make me LOLWTF.

I almost got killed by that goal post.
I'm part of the crowd carrying the north goalpost down the field. :comeatme: #obz
-
At some point I was climbing a fence (at least this is how I remember it) and we were trying to get the goal post over it. It was very iffy. I think it was this game. I lived down the street at the time, and I would just walk in during the second half without a ticket if it looked like we had a chance to win. We usually got absolutely killed back in the day (as you know).

it was policy back then that anybody who wanted to could get in free at halftime and usually much, much sooner if you just asked politely.

cool story, gramps.
-

Because Snyder's offense back then was way more pass oriented and Carl Straw couldn't out run a aloth, they wanted him to see the whole field, and see the rush better so he could get rid of the football.
-
Wow, we should do a throw back uni day.

As it was, he ended his SR season with one of the best passer ratings in K-State history. :gocho:

16 yr old me got to :cheers: with my dad and his bro's after that game. There was also some Taco Hut enjoyed postgame.

Right, I'm just saying that I to picture CCQ with that style of backpeddle, pumping the ball like a rabid pendulum across his chest.

i also used to sneak onto the practice fields on my walk to marlatt ele school, there was a hole in the fence. :peek:

Why wasn't a FG contemplated?

Why wasn't a FG contemplated?
it was before overtime was invented and kstate hadn't won a game in like thirty games. no way were they going to take a tie.

I get that, but thought it was weird that not even Mitch had a "Cats need a FG to tie and a TD to win" at any point.
-
I believe our FG kickers absolutely blew back then. They had a hard time making extra points.
-
guys-
we hadn't won a game in like thirty games. there was a tie in there though. it was a thirty game non winning streak. we could've had the best field goal kicker in the history of the world and there would've been a 0% chance that we would've kicked a field goal. 0%. it wasn't even an option. they needed to win a game. a tie would've been just as bad as a loss.

I was just giving another reason of the 15 bajjilliongazzillion why they didn't try a FG.
-
I'm pretty sure there was a stiff breeze that day. Probably was a factor, iyam.

Was the kicker Tate "Wide" Wright? If so the nickname would also be a clue why there was no kick.

it's like i'm posting to a wall, but instead of just standing there saying nothing, the wall keeps posting back in really stupid ways. the kicker didn't matter you guys. a tie was just as bad as a loss.
-
I know why they were tunnel-visioned on a touchdown once they got it into the red zone. It seems weird that getting into FG range to tie the game wasn't mentioned when they were back around their own 10 with a little over a minute left.

because a field goal would have resulted in a tie and a tie would've been just as bad as a loss. i'll stop though, because there are only three options for how this conversation went/is going...
1) i have not explained this well
2) you guys are messing with me
3) you guys are complete idiots
-
man, stan bot really has been through it all.
He really has.
-
WGAF about field goals or whatever. What we should be focusing on instead is how downtrodden the DB is right after Hernandez caught that touchdown and jumped up and down right in the dude's face. That guy has his head down and is just so bummed. The very personification of the word "hang-dog." I almost feel bad for him.
goEMAW should find out his name and mail him a sympathy card or something. We could all sign it and junk.
Fun fact: goEMAW user SchemeDoctor has a dog named Frank Hernandez Dog in honor of this drive.
-
What about the fact that our jersey's look the exact same as they did in 1989.

and i appreciate that, except for the absolute fact that how good or how bad the kicker was at the time was an absolute complete non factor in deciding whether or not to go for it.
like, if we could use a robot computer to make a cyborg kicker that made one hundred percent of every field goal he kicked from absolutely any distance on the football field and then used the same robot computer to build a time maching and put the cyborg in the time machine and sent him back to 1989 with instuctions to go kick for the kansas state football team and snyder saw this cyborg kick eight thousand field goals in a row without missing and there were national news stories on him and the whole world knew about him then guess what? kstate does not even think about kicking a field goal in that situation and nobody in the entire stadium thinks about kicking a field goal in that situation.

Your point doesn't make any sense. We wouldn't have lost every game for like 30 years if we had this kicker and his 8 thousand field goals

No, you've explained it fine from the perspective of a long-suffering MHK Cat fan. I'm saying it's weird from the perspective of somebody who didn't suffer through 30 straight non-wins to not hear in a 17-14 game with a minute left that the Cats can get to or are in FG range, even if that's immediately followed by Mitch screaming that they don't want a tie, they want the win, baby.
-
I think it's weird too. I also think it's weird that LHC Bill Snyder ate a timeout at the end of a game like that.
-
or maybe the kicker wasn't feeling well and lacking confidence. Snyder is very good at reading players, imo.
-
snyders was bold and daring before bold and daring was cool

4) the most attractive and best smelling poster of all time wanted everyone to let everyone know that we had a kicker with a demeaning and funny nickname.
It is like two walls are posting to each other and the first wall is so self centered and narcissistic that he can't understand that another wall may have motivations that have nothing to do with what the first wall has posted.

Ya we would just kick from our own 20 after a touchback every time. A lot of teams wouldn't be able to produce more than 3 points per possession.

#58 for UNT was rough ridin' dominating our left tackle.
Scary thought -- there were a couple of guys sitting on the bench who were not good enough to win the starting LT spot.

Good points. We had to win that game. In 1989 vs N. Texas when you haven't won in a long time, you go for the win.
But Snyder changed within a few years based on a different situation. In 1993 against Colorado he went for the tie.

they were all just mhs townie highschool football players. obviously some were recruited and some were donors kids. most weren't. i'm good friends with one who was neither, but whose job was to microwave fballs on cold days and then send them on the field when it was sean snyders turn to punt.

That game was the most angry I ever got at SleepMom in my whole life. When NTSU scored their late TD to take the lead SleepMom let out with a huge gale of nervous laughter. 15yo me did not understand/approve of her coping mechanism and was pissed.
Carl Straw and Frank Hernandez probably prevented me from running away from home that night.
Thanks fellas!

Would be nice if someone could put together a film solely about the 89 wild wildcats and do a "where are they now" type of deal, kind of like the end of Friday Night Lights or something.
Like show Hernandez catching the ball for the winning score, then show him pushing papers at a used car dealership and get a few quotes from him, etc. I neeeed to know what Straw is doing with himself now. Like really really need to know. TIA.

Find that little nugget using google? :fatty:

Need documentary style video with at least 5 players from this team. TIA.

I almost got killed by that goal post.
Was on the crossbar as it came down...sorry if I landed on you.

I'm really happy we broke our losing streak against these dorks (North Texas). However, _FAN please break down Straws 5 step drop for me. It looks so awkward.

Also, 17-14 we were down. Fourth and 4? No kicking a FG? Am I showing my age? Was there no overtime back then? I see the highlight real over and over at the stadium as the start of Bill's greatness, but I guess I don't know why we didn't kick a FG, unless we were so sick of losing and didn't want to go to OT.
-
Never seen this. We've come a long way.
And lol the Wabash being played as the students are hustling off the goal posts.
-
The part I chuckled at the most is how 84 just stands at the end of the o-line with his hands on his hips and gassed. He could not look less ready to make an athletic play.
-
Pretty sure there was no OT back then Fanning.

Yeah, I believe daris is the one who explained. After losing that many games in a row, you don't go for the tie (there was no OT).

i was six at the time and had never even heard of kansas, but i'd imagine you answered your own question

Yep, and apparently Smith was our only player back then. I wonder what the recruiting fruit was for him. "Listen dude, you could go to Oklahoma, but we'll give you the ball on every down."- Snyder
-
Don't know what's worse from that. QB looking like he's going to fall over when he drops back to pass, the LT looking like he couldn't block my grandma, the fact that we still won, or that we're still wearing almost identical uniforms 23 years later.
-
definitely enjoyed this footage, btw :thumbs:

maybe he promised him a coaching gig for the rest of his life

OMG, look at Willie during this video. He's just hanging in the "student section". No need to leave that area back in those times. I'm sure he was PAK'ing.

great modding. i know i've been mentally checked out for about six months or so, but have no recollection of this :sdeek:

Yep. My bad.

Could we afford for goalposts being torn down back then?
-
#88 Smith was just amazing on that drive, catching every damn thing thrown at his way....
-
The glory days. We need an old school wildcat logo emoticon. TIA.

Would you storm the field if we beat texas to win the Big 12? If we beat texas to go undefeated?
-

Probably not, but after finally winning a game after 30 tries, I think the athletic department was like "eff it, more debt! A win effing feels good!"

you mean the TE doing the same thing Snyder has them do now? Beginnings of eliteness.

In 1989 if a Kansas Highway patrol officer stopped you on the interstate instead of a citation you received 2 tickets to a K-State football game.
If you got stopped a 2nd time you were forced to go to a game.

A: Two things: KSU football before LHC Bill Snyder, and dog crap.

Indeed, I do. :cheers:

I wasn't at the game. I listened on the radio. I was going crazy when we won. My dad was listening in the tractor out in the field next to the house. He came home right after the 'cats won. He got out and immediately started doing the "WHAT IT IS! WHAT IT IS!"
Dobber gets a tear in his eye to this day every time I see the video of the game or think about that day...my dad died a couple of months later. :cry:

Interstate 70
K-State 0

Back in that day, you couldn't leave your K-State football tickets in the dashboard of your car, or else you'd come back and there'd be 2 more there.

I love at 4:08 how Mitch almost passes out in agonizing relief as he shouts "They win a ballgame!".

Amazing stuff, really.

little daris was at that game and down on the field after it. but then again i am a great ksu cat fan, so where else would i have been?

I was there. It was a night game. At the conclusion of the game, the Austin Peay players danced at midfield. If my memory serves, a purple rectangle embedded with white interlocking "K S U" letters was painted on midfield. After the game, Willie Nelson performed a Farm Aid concert in the rain from a makeshift stage erected at the north endzone. Miserable game and evening.

I'm pretty sure I was in the stands trying to peg the UNT coach in the head with vodka spiked oranges.

Our team was absolutely terrible. Their DE was just destroying out LT that entire drive...Every....Single....Play
And Straw's drop :lol: :bang: :lol:
