More fun than '98. That was the year we lost to A&M at the last second and ended up in the NobodyCares Bowl playing Purdue, right?
Didn't really believe all the "fanning's sock" stuff until this. Every real (non-sock) K-State fan knows the events of '98 by heart.
yeah is this a rough ridin' joke? I think winters was born in 98 and he still knows what happened
Sheesh, you all are a tough crowd. I didn't want to come off like a know-it-all. Do I have to prove it all with a play-by-play?
All we needed to do was beat A&M in the B12 champ game in St. Louis. Bishop was QB. Daddy Lockett was our key WR. We learned during the game that UCLA was beaten in their game meaning our path to the NC was completely clear. The Cotton and Fiesta had already made agreements to take Texas and (OU?? This I don't remember for sure). Anyway, after we lost a very close game (I believe we were ranked third, but UCLA also lost that weekend) we were relegated to the Alamo Bowl where we played and lost to a hapless Purdue team. Is that good enough? I was in high school at the time, so I wasn't quite as big of a fan as I am now.
BUT... does this somehow prove I am not a Fanning sock or no?
