Title: I haven't been this excited for KSU Wildcats Football since______.

What do you think?  I was just reading thru this week's game notes and thought: "crap, I am more pumped than an average year." :ksu:

I put ever, but it has been a long time.  As last year went on it was pretty exciting, but the first game had me worried how the season would play out.  Go Cats!   :emawkid:

I would definitely agree.  I think this year will be more difficult than last year for sure... but I think we have the opportunity to have a better team.  That could be exciting.

Highest Excitement level going into the year

’98  (the countdown to NU in the collegian was fantastic, but yeah, the ending to the year…)
’03 (buddy’s dad was a chiefs seasons ticket holder, IIRC, we bought big 12 championship tickets in august.  It’s the last time I’ve ever been supremely confident in ksu cat football)
’97 (wanted to believe we could beat them in Lincoln)
’96 (ended up being kinda a letdown year.  Watching De’Angelo Evans run over us, then CU, then Cotton,)

The rest of the years were kinda meh.  I’d say going into ’09 was the lowest level.

2000 was pretty good on the anticipation front - remember all the "Beasley's shoulder was jacked and that is why we got hammered in Lincoln" talk

2007.

The first season of Prince exceeded expectations, the Cats seemed to have some talent (Freemaw fever!), and we were opening at Auburn.

O man....The pinnacle of the RP era, close game against Auburn, Crush Texas on the road....all leading up to us being ranked for the first time since 04 before the KU game.....

True Story- ben ji first registered on ksufans after the texas game... His screen name was "Prince'sJester"

Nothing will ever compare to the excitement of August thru Nov 1998. I was only a freshman, snorting line after line of purple EMAW coke.

I believed in our quarterbacks going into 2004.  I was so pumped, predicted a return to KC.

This. Every year I think we are going to win every fuckin' one of them. Even with Prince, even with Prince.  :facepalm:

I get the same raging EMAW boner every year...but, the last time I had these kind of expectations was 2004. Hopefully my hopes and dreams aren't crushed like they were that year  :dubious:

I've never been more excited for a cats football season than this one, feels like we could be in for an emotional ride on many different levels.

2004, preseason Heisman contender, coming off of a huge season. That season may be the one that ruined me.
