Something I've noticed about K-State fans

[bigwillie20]

Every KU fan I know is just obsessed with what KSU fans think. It is really weird/creepy.

Always have to do a little extra to get noticed when you're the little brother

[RickRampus]

KU fans all over facebook are bitching about KSU fans, then dumbass KSU fans defend it by comparing it to KU fans' reactions after KSU lost to Baylor, but the big difference is, when KSU lost to Baylor, it didn't mean crap for KU. When KU lost to TCU last night, it meant the world to KSU. Shot at the title is now a definite possibility.

Getting beat by 41 in a quasi-nuetralish court setting by a mid-continent conference team is beyond more embarassing than losing to a crappy school in a bcs conference, regardless of a bcs affiliation not meaning as much in basketball.  RPI be damned.  Forty rough ridin' One.  But let's get back on topic.  Beems, tell us why the 3 point line should be moved back.

I don't understand why KU fans think those losses are even somewhat comparable.

[EMAWmeister]

I mean, sorry you guys couldn't beat TCU.

Man, you aren't any fun with this.

[Cire]

I didn't hear anyone of either fanbase talking about the game today

[qatzmanchu]

Its not about KU schedenfreude, cant we just be happy for TCU picking up its first Big 12 conferenece win ever.

Jeez get over your self KU fans.

[yoga-like_abana]

Seriously, though, isn't it kind of sick how humans get excited and giddy over someone else's pain?  There's no better example than in sports.

If you're feeling pain over a road loss in February, when you're still on top of the Big XII, get the round of 64 and 32 in Kansas City with probably 12,000-15,000 Kansas fans in the arena, and likely to win another league title, and you have arguably the best coach in the country, then you're taking this too seriously.

Still hurts to lose like KU did last night, especially to a team that is complete dogshit.

don't lie beems, you didn't actually watch the game.

[pissclams]

as i was driving into the office this morning, i stopped and grabbed a handle of viaka, handed it to he ku grad who does the lunch catering for my office and told him to take the day off.  it's not every day that you can bring sunshine into someone's life but it's important to take advantage of the opportunities when the arise.

TCU would have to show marked improvement to reach complete dogshit.

BMW, this is a great thread. Very insightful.  Just kidding you goddamn idiot.

This is the most excited you guys have been since K-State started 10-0 in football.  Just calling it like I see it, friend.

Most K-State fans are more excited that we're in 1st place in the Big 12 right now, but yeah.

Nobody here, besides you really sees it that way though.  Admit it, ku is in real danger of not sharing a piece of the Big XII title this year and you're scared shitless.

Rank, in order, the teams you'd like to see win it if ku doesn't beems... If I had to guess, K-State is the LAST team you want to see take the hardware this year and there is now a VERY real chance of that happening.

[TheFormerKCCat]

I'm sure KU fans were very excited when we lost to Baylor in FB, I just don't go to opposing fan BBSs to find out.

_Fan nails this one pretty well. I would only add that comparatively:  2012 Baylor FB > 2012-13 TCU MBB. The relative positioning of K-State FB and KU MBB at the time is pretty accurate. So, the upset of KU in MBB by TCU was even greater. As _Fan and others point out in this thread, we're VERY excited to be tied for 1st place right now in MBB.

I'll be honest here and admit that I do enjoy KU losses in any sport (or other endeavors such as debate, academic contests, etc.) AND I would've been excited last night if any other Big XII team lost and put K-State into a tie for 1st place.

The OP's (Mr. "Beems" as he is referred to herein) point is calling for a black & white absolute scenario. It's much more complex than that. I LOVE the fact that the season is in our team's hands (exactly where they should want it to be). We're playing for a championship in February. I love it!

[Dugout DickStone]

This is a very odd defense mechanism by ku fans.

[Powercat Posse]

I wasnt that excited really.  I just could not stop laughing.   I meen KU had 2 pts with 6:30 left in the 1st half. I laughed. KU was down 37-21 wth 12 min. to play. I laughed.  Ku cut the lead to 4 pts and it still looked like a 15 seed vs the worst big 12 team ever, and i laughed.  And when TCU missed 13 FTs in the final 3 minutes and still won.  Oh yeah.... i laughed

KU could have come back and won by 2 and i still would have got more laughs that watching a stand up comedian for 2 hours. 

But i wont lie.  I am glad KU lost.   Cause in 5 years, few will remember they beat Tcu by 2 pts.   NO ONE will forget this monumental upset

Now that the laughing is over, i am excited that Ksu is in a 1st place tie halfway thru the conf season

It's not that odd when you think about it.

[pufiZzle]

This is a very odd defense mechanism by ku fans.

They use it all the time.  "We need to lose"  "We don't want to be #1"  "I wish the streak would be over"  "I'm glad we lost"

It's bizarre.  I'm like.......winning is fun, no?

Not when you're expected to win every game and reach the Final Four every year.

so that's not fun? wtf

[Super PurpleCat]

When I heard KU lost I was eating chips and salsa and drinking sweet tea.  I like eating that stuff so like Pavlov's dog I salivate for chips and salsa whenever I hear about KU basketball losing.  This is scientifically proven by scientists so I appreciate beems pointing this out.

Reaching the Final Four is fun, yes.  Winning games you're expected to win is mostly just relief.

Guys if I'm ever like so pud that I don't care if we're a top 10 team then you have permission to rip my dick off.
