1998 was enjoyed so much because 1988 was remembered. 2012 is being enjoyed so much because the sting of 98 is so vivid, and also because beating ranked teams on the road by like 50 is a total blast.

Can you guys just enjoy the ride? I can't. Too nervous. Help.I'm enjoying the heck of it. Honestly, I wasn't sure I'd ever experience another 98 in my life, but its happening. We might lose and not make it, but we're part of the discussion and its nearly November. That's pretty darn fun.I am enjoying this BECAUSE of 1998, and what that felt like.

Quote from: Snydercat34 on October 21, 2012, 02:54:29 PMOne game at a time guys. One game at a time. The ride thus far has been glorious but we can't look ahead. There's still important gamesleft on the schedule. After the game I received probably ten texts from friends who were already declaring us national champions! This is foolish. If we stay focused the Snyder-way, go about our business week by week, the sky is the ceiling for this squad. Great win for us! Let's focus on Tech now.We don't have to focus on crap. The players do. Remember this distinction.

If you have "let 1998 go" then you're not EMAW.

I squeezed them out of my pillow late that night and I bottled them up. I first thought I would plant an orange tree and every year water that orange tree with my tears so that I would remember that night every morning when I was drinking on my OJ. So I did. And now I really hate OJ, but I still remember what it felt like to almost be there and then have to take your medicine. Taking your medicine every morning for 13.8 years. This team is on it. This team is making me believe. This team has to win 5 more games...and then I will have a glass of OJ and think about my years at KSU...and I will probably cry again.
