probably no tailgate, just get to game depending on what we get into Friday night. Grab a drink close to the stadium if we get time, we're staying closer to the airport. Nobody on here is coming with me, bunch of couples. Friday night we have reservations at Lamberts as of now.

Easy Tiger is just ok. Weather permitting, could be a good time. That's a new location to me. Seems there used to be a bougie Mexican place at that property. There's a really good ramen spot around the corner.

Bonus: it's across the street from the Texas State Cemetery, in case you want to peep some graves.

True, but it's not going to matter with our secondary allowing them to throw all over the field at will.

They're selling out to stop the run and we don't have the ability to throw. Additionally, our D isn't good enough to slow them down to the point that we stay in the game.

Sark is absolutely giving the finger to Kleiman and Klein by going for it on these 4th downs.

He's absolutely in scrimmage/lets practice this for later in the season mode.

I just don't understand how the OL is this bad
Having an overhyped oline is practically a K-State tradition.  People confuse experience with talent, which isn't always the case.

Yes but also they have been legitimately good much of the year

We haven’t played anyone good this year.  I mean, Texas looked clearly better than Alabama when they played.

For sure, but still the OL play is really all that should be surprising

As dominant as they’ve looked in the trenches, and with them being able to capitalize on some big plays to the WRs, we’re in a decent position and could easily be in better shape.

Should’ve had a pick that cancels 3 pts.
The 4th & 2 score was an oops. Good call Sark.

Their QB is throwing lots of questionable balls and I think we can pick him off, maybe even a couple of times.

Going for it was the right call.  Make a somewhat risky kick (given our shaky fg game) to enable at best a 50/50 2nd OT?  No way.  Gotta think we had something like a 40% chance of scoring on that play.

That was one of the weirdest and most frustrating games ever.  The cats made so many fundamental errors that it hardly seemed fair they had a chance to win it.  But they did.  Twice.

It felt like we were playing one of the most talented and disciplined teams in the history of CFB in the 1st half, and they just crumpled in the 2nd half.  Wild.  I hated almost the entire game.  It was so painful to watch.

The start of this game felt like a low-T KSU hoops team of yesteryear self-destruct in a rowdy AFH.  What an absolutely awful 1st half.  Miraculous that we were down only 10 at half.

The estimate of our odds in the 2nd OT boils down to being at a disadvantage when the other team gets the ball 2nd (and knows whether a FG is a good option).  I think that's pretty obvious.

As for the odds of scoring on 4th down, it's called a guesstimate.  I'm pretty sure it's not all that difficult to estimate the odds of getting a TD from a few yards out on one play.  You're right, though - I did not get this estimate from a football simulator.  You win the argument.  Good job.

Had to go for it but that play call was oof
You absolutely did not have to go for it
Yes we did not have to, but I think the odds of winning were significantly worse if we tried it.
Their QB was shook. We were the better team the second half by far
The issue is you’re assuming Tennant even converts that FG.
The fact that we were so much better is a pretty good reason to give him a shot.
If you believe we were playing so much better then why not give your offense a chance to win the game by gaining 4 yards?

Let the law of averages play out

I liked the call, I also wish we had been better on downs 1-3 (though first was ok)

We were bold, and put the pressure on. Had we got it, it'd been the win of the season

It’s not hard.

You go for it at the end of regulation, and plan for that with your play-calling. You kick the FG in OT.

That’s how you do it.

The fact that their offense was DONE only adds fuel to that fire.

Losing this game means @KU would easily be our best win of the season if we pull it off.

The top half of the Big 12 has seemed pretty tight this year, with the main separation coming down to who gets their most difficult opponents at home.

It could happen, but it's unlikely. KU and KSU are now in the same boat (conference-wise). Yes, it's possible, but not probable. Everything needs to happen "just so."

Mott made some huge plays.  Forced a fumble and tipped/headbutted two passes, right?  That was impressive.

It was wild to see the offense look so impotent in H1.  Seemed like we were trying too hard to make the run game happen.

Yea I also think we finish 9-3, and that's remarkable honestly.   Klieman is going to be averaging over 8 wins per regular season in his 4 full seasons he's coached here and that's incredibly good.  I would have taken the under on 7 per year when he was hired.

I’ll never understand running the QB off center from the shotgun with 1 or less yards to go. I know that is part of the offense and we do it successfully some times but they knew it was coming. Also, it was third down. Get under center, try a sneak or a run and make a 4th down decision. Doing the same thing from 5 yards further back is just dumb.

Finally some common ground.

We acted like we expected to wear their D line down and got manhandled instead. Credit to CK for adjusting at the half but he obviously gets the blame for coming in with the game plan in the first place.

So doing the same thing from 5 yards further back is a better plan to handle the NT? It was a complete crap play all regardless. If you are going to run the QB up the middle for 1 yard, I’d much rather him not need 6 yards to get there.

I don't agree with running Will at all, but going under center was a guaranteed failure.   Would have preferred 4 attempts with empty backfields and going to the endzone each time.

This is such an idiotic take. People argue whether or not it was the right call to go for it when it was clearly proven to be the wrong call. The proof is in the pudding. We went for it, got manhandled on the line and in pass coverage, and came nowhere close to converting. It was a terrible call. Was Tennant bad? Yes but that would've been basically an extra point, and even if he missed it, we'd be sitting here looking at the same result.

If getting "manhandled" on that play made it a bad play, what exactly would be different if we elected to kick the field goal and if we made said field goal? If you don't have confidence in gaining four yards, seems like using a strategy that requires you to gain 21 more yards, is let's say, inconsistent logic.

I don't think so. We were so much better in plays where we could spread the field than short yardage plays. When you're going for broke on one play from the four yard-line, you're limited because the field is so compressed because of the back of the end zone being out of bounds. Had we kicked and taken it to a second OT I like our chances of breaking loose from a mid-range or longer play when we have more field to work with. Hell, that first OT play we had to Sinnott went for 17 yards pretty effortlessly.

I mean these are all opinions, so no, no lies in yours or anyone elses.

For the record, I think that going for the win there was a good play, not right or wrong, regardless of the kicker or what he did or didn't do earlier in the game. It's worth noting that for the season we average 6 yards per play and for the game we were averaging 4.9 yards per play. Thinking you could get 4 yards to win the game isn't some radical concept.
