Big time motherfucking football news.

Snyder and the UCF guy don't know each other that well.  Kellis is on FIRE this week.  FIRE!

Surprisingly, LHC Bill Snyder and George O’Leary are only acquaintances

Ask LHC Bill Snyder about an opposing football coach, and he normally offers up some kind of story about him.

Rick Neuheisel, Terry Allen, Paul Rhoads … He has talked about all three this season. Last year he often spoke about his friendships with Tom Osborne, Joe Paterno and Bobby Bowden.

But he apparently isn’t good pals with Central Florida coach George O’Leary. Both have been in the business for years and years, but their paths have rarely crossed.

“I don’t know George well,” Snyder said.

O’Leary said he met Snyder in the 1980s when he was an assistant coach with Syracuse and Snyder was the offensive coordinator at Iowa.

“That’s how long ago it was,” O’Leary said.

But they haven’t spent much time around each other since.

“I know Bill,” O’Leary said. “We haven’t played ever, though.”

Both coaches are looking forward to their first game against each other Saturday.

Snyder has been very complimentary of Central Florida this week, and O’Leary says “Snyder has built a hell of a program.”

According to Central Florida, the Wildcats are scheduled to return the game in Orlando in 2012, and O’Leary thinks K-State fans “will love the trip.”

But Saturday’s game is up first. O’Leary says taking his team to the Midwest for the first time will be a fun experience. He’s also looking forward to seeing Snyder Family Stadium.

“I don’t usually play in stadiums named after guys unless they’re dead,” O’Leary said. “I think it’s an honor to play there.”

Kellis is a rough ridin' clown. Really hate it that son of a bitch covers the Cats. Can not wait to unleash hell on him from sec 17 in the OOD.

Don't bet on that return game

Don't bet on that return game

Rusty, Rick Daris, Limestone, and _Fan are going to have LOADS of explaining to do on the home front if that game doesn't happen.  Promises have been made.

[ednksu]

I can go visit where i grew up for a return game

I already have huge plans for combo fans being thrown when they take the picture on splash mountain

Looks like KU and NU fans are enjoying the mountain.


Space mountain underrated, imo.

It'll be played.  Texas had to play there, they aren't going to let us buy that out.  K-State fans need to get the 1999 mentality out of our heads, EVERY BCS school has to play road non-con games.  We couldn't get out of playing in Denton, TX and Lafayette, LA.
