Kansas State's performance shouldn't inspire panic. I begged you not to overreact at Iowa State's embarrassing loss to North Dakota State last week, and this week, I'll have to beg you not to overreact to a less-than-stellar outing for Kansas State. Too many people don't realize that college football teams don't have static values. They're young and performances at every position can vary wildly from week to week. Iowa State wasn't as bad as it looked last week, and the same is true of Kansas State this week. The Cyclones played well and should be a little upset after a bad call went in favor of Tyler Lockett near the end zone and helped produce seven points. The Wildcats committed 10 penalties and found themselves down 28-13 in the first half after committing seven for 57 yards. They cleaned it up and drew just three flags for 20 yards in the second half, which was a big reason why they shutout Iowa State in the second half. (The Cyclones, by the way, are still waiting for their first second-half points of 2014).Jack Trice Stadium doesn't get enough credit as a difficult place to play, but the Wildcats survived a rough day, and when you get in that kind of situation and still win, it can often inspire confidence in similar situations in the future and help you in the long run. Down 28-13, Kansas State executed on both sides of the field (especially on offense in the fourth quarter), got big stops when they needed them and advanced to 2-0.Kansas notwithstanding, you should be happy with any conference road win. K-State will take its lessons learned and move on. That's what LHC Bill Snyder's teams do. Saturday didn't change the fact that K-State has an outstanding chance of beating Auburn in Week 4 at home on Thursday night.
Where did that come from, Stevesie?
No demerits for Kansas State, which pulled out a gruesome nailbiter at Iowa State. Nobody looks good on the road in Ames, where one of the conference's best recent teams, 2011 Oklahoma State, lost on a Friday night. A close win against Iowa State at Iowa State's place is as good as a resounding win against Iowa State at your place.

If TCU and K-State remain with 1-loss by Nov. 8th, will College GameDay crew be in Fort Worth? Some decent competition for week 11. http://scores.espn.go.com/ncf/scoreboard?seasonYear=2014&seasonType=2&weekNumber=11
