Last year I predicted that KSU would go 6-6 and win three or four conference games. They won three conference games and finished 5-7. Yet none of their fans praised me as a raving Wildcat optimist. This year I’ll continue my unabashed Wildcat optimism and predict two or three conference wins and […]

Scipio Tex on why he loves this Texas team taking Manhattan.
That was as satisfying a win as any we’ve had this year.
If you’re not fully and totally in love with this basketball team, you possess the soul of a cane toad. You should be captured, drowned in formaldehyde, and dissected by blunt scalpel.
Speaking of scalpels and dissection, this one is […]
Well much like everyone thought, the ballgame between the fifth ranked Texas Longhorns and the Kansas State Wildcats was decided by defensive effort and more specifically how Texas could handle the best player in the nation Michael Beasley. Texas defended him well enough, making him work for his 30 points on 10-21 shooting, but […]
In case you’re living in the proverbial college basketball cave this season, the best freshman in the nation and perhaps best player in country is playing in Manhattan, Kansas. Okay, that’s strange in and of itself, but that’s not the point. The point is the number 7 ranked Texas Longhorns travel to Manhattan […]
I mentioned in my evaluation of the conference race that tonight’s game in Lincoln was far from a lock for KSU and that it should begin a slide of three losses over their next six for the Wildcats as they work down the conference stretch.
It’s final from flyover country. Nebraska - 71 KSU - […]
