Well, I'm glad you guys have something to boost your low self esteem after losing Frank Martin to South Carolina and hiring oscar Weber.

Can you imagine if the only facet of your life that was better than your in state rival was the men's basketball team of your favorite university? Lulz, what's that like beems?

Well, first of all, KU alums make more money than K-State alums. Second, KU is better than K-State in every aspect (with the exception of soil judging). Better school, better campus, more money, more students, more accomplishments, more tradition, etc, etc. K-State is nothing more than the annoying little red-headed stepchild. You guys wear purple, and you're forced to root for oscar Weber. Such is life.

Sing it PepperJax . . . nothing says "we're better" than constantly having to say it over and over and over again.

You do realize that this thread is based on a link that disproves your more money argument, no? But maybe if you say it enough....

considering one is a liberal arts school and the other an agricultural land grant school, they really don't even compare. It's like saying the Boston Celtics are better than the Denver Broncos.

Look. I have a good idea of the ideas and beliefs they feed you over at KU. I was there for a bit and I'm also more RCJH than most. But you can't argue with science, the facts are facts. And if basketball is the only better thing, congrats, its nothing more than something to amuse us during the offseason. I do understand why some people need to take it so seriously, and personally I don't find it too pathetic.

Figures above are as of 2010.

So, so poor. Hopefully a couple pig farmers win the lottery in the next few years and bring the grapes out from the basement. Someone who graduated from K-State has to get rich one of these days.
