Kansas State Football / Oh well

I expected the game to be close, but not in the way that it actually played out.

Obviously, you should have won the game. I gained a lot of respect for your defense tonight. I knew that Auburn would have a hard time moving the ball, but at time's even Malzahn appeared to be completely confounded. I would be very proud of your effort on defense.

As an Auburn fan, I'm not sure what to take from this game moving forward, except that we got a win that we needed, and Nick Marshall delivered in the biggest moment during the game. I would be sick to my stomach as a KSU fan - a lot of points left on the field.

Anyway, I've enjoyed the banter around here. I'll probably lurk around, but I will most definitely be rooting for you throughout the rest of the year.  :cheers:

Who said this?  And, why didn't he get on the bus?  Late? Disciplinary? 

 :Wha:

no linky, but rivals is reporting it as fact with no reason


The AU twitterverse is pretty touchy about it... must be fact.

 :lol:

He was not on the plane. That's a big blow to our secondary.

Thank you for the confirmation.  I dropped a quick email to our WR coach.   :thumbsup:

lol okay

So sad that they are so undisciplined and morally weak that they put themselves before the good of the team.

serious question, where do KSU players stay before home games? if its at their own residence, that's great, I think the other reason aside from players being "morally reprehensible" is team unity, keeping everyone together the night before the game.

it also gives the player's families a chance to stay with their kids so to speak.

But above all yes, its because our 19 year olds are morally weak.
I think Snyder takes them over to Junction City for some hookers and blow

just like any respectable coach would

the great thing is that all the conjecture and perception gets to be played out on the field Thursday!

Teams from the south love making a big deal about walking from your car to the stadium.

They like to ride the bus to home games as well.  I mean what in the world is that all about?  Ok guys it's almost game time get your stuff and hop on the bus so we can drive to the stadium that we are already at.

The reason for that is because the team stays out of town the night before a home game. That is a very good idea because I am sure the party atmosphere would be very tempting for young fellows on the team.

do teams outside of the SEC not do this?

The SEC: Taking "You can't seem to behave yourselves so we have to separate you from the rest of society.  This is why we can't have nice things." and just calling it: "Tradition".

that's one way to say it, I guess.

Auburn fans that like X & O stuff, here are a bunch of blogs for this site I wrote the last few seasons about K-State's offense. (unfortunately I haven't had time to blog yet this year): http://goEMAW.com/blog/?cat=4

Wish you had some stuff from this year - I stay busy too, well with the exception of today  ;)

And that's awesome man.  :thumbsup:

I don't think they want us bringing up his days at Garden City Community College...

 :dunno:

You can bring it up until your heart's content. His time at GCCC doesn't matter. He still isn't a great passing QB and probably never will be. But he's very effective in Auburn's offense. KState will have to prove it can shut down the run (which no one has done in the last 10 games) before Auburn resorts to completely slinging the ball around the field. And if it comes to Auburn having to abandon the run, Nick might come out of the game and be replaced by Johnson. If Auburn is forced to throw consistently in the second half because they're down big, Johnson is the QB to do that. That's obviously not ideal, but Johnson is the better passer. And if we have to resort to that, Auburn will be in serious trouble.

Easy, killer...  I was merely using his days as a Bronc to further the point that he's "not a great passing QB".  I think you're offense vs our defense will be a fun match-up simply because we are far better defensively than the vast majority of the SEC and have proven that out statistically in a conference more known for its offenses.

Interestingly, I think we dictate pace/number of possessions with our offense on Thursday which applies increased pressure as the game goes on to score every time you get it, especially if your defense has the same struggles with us that you've had with lesser Big12 offenses (aggy/mizzou).

Didn't mean for that to come across as aggressive. I've just never thought he was a great passer and didn't expect him to become one overnight. I think he can be serviceable, and this offense allows for a lot of easy reads and open throws. There isn't a lot of progression needed.

And I think you underestimate the defensive talent and abilities of the SEC, much like a lot of Auburn fans are underestimating KSU's defense. Gus's offense is incredibly difficult to stop. No one has really done it since he's been at Auburn. And it's pretty efficient. So while KSU may control TOP, if the defense can't force a punt, turnover, or FG, TOP isn't going to be a factor. Then, it comes down to who has the ball last.

I don't think Auburn can consistently stop KState's offense. Too much space to cover for a defense who hasn't had much success against mobile QBs in spread offenses. But I also don't think they will be stopped on offense. I see it being a one score came late in the 4th quarter.

I think those are pretty fair statements.

I understand that the SEC hasn't witnessed a forward pass before, but we know enough to see that nick marshall sucks at passing the ball.

Marshall has not been a very accurate thrower of the ball, that is very true. My point was that we have big physical receivers who help him in that regard. Down the field or otherwise, big bodies make easier targets.  Especially in the screen game he doesn't have to be an accurate down the field thrower. If your defense plays soft coverage I expect that Malzahn will "take what the defense gives him" and get the ball into play maker's hands in space.

"To piss pound" is a verb.  One does not speak of "A piss pound" as it were.  To piss pound is to pound another with such terrible vigor than the lesser pugilist loses all control of his bladder, thereby pissing himself.

I would have bought that in a game of balderdash

Is that anything like quidditch?  Spracs is a squawk and may be more likely to take kindly to a quidditch reference.

a squawk? I am but a mere muggle
