Grantland writer has KSU going to the E8 where they lose to tOSU. Also the cats have a pretty sweet Owen Wilson picture representing them.

Is it because KSU is effortlessly charming, don't take themselves too seriously, and have a zest for life?

Don't bother, it's not the "So hot right now, KState" one. I know.... I was super disappointed too.

If any of you have ever seen Royal Tenenbaums, you would know.

HerrSonntag · « **Reply #14 on:** March 19, 2013, 03:14:55 PM »

Figured it out, its an obscure Royal Tenenbaums reference. Owen's character is a western writer struggling with writer's block after his last book Wildcat was a commercial flop.

So Grantland says the cats will make the E8, but picks a picture that says Wildcats flop? Makes sense.

WillieWatanabe · « **Reply #16 on:** March 19, 2013, 03:22:52 PM »

like owen wilson's nose, ksu isn't great, but gets the job done.

We've both rebounded nicely from severe depression and attempted suicide, obviously.

Royal Tenenbaums is great I think is the moral of the story here

Like his name for the Badgers.

as Grantland's Mark Titus calls them, the Buzzcuts.

Nope, that's not it. It's because Grantland reads this board and saw this:
