I'm not sure where I'll be game time. If things work out right, I'll already be in Western Nebraska shooting at four-legged animals. They rarely work out that well, so I'll probably be moving across I-80 listening to Greg Sharpe and crew on the radio. Just the same, I hope you'll all come together!

KSU held Potter on the o-line...
…then Freeman threw a strike. West had decent coverage, but the ball was right on target.

Costly penalty
on 3rd and ten so we punt. (pass interference on Swift)
KState fumbled the punt
We Recover!!
Of course they review it, but it stands

From the PPV instant replay...
….we caught a break on that fumbled punt. I think his elbow was down before the ball came out. But I think the refs decided it wasn’t conclusive, so we kept the ball. If it had been called down by contact, the review wouldn’t have changed it either.

Excellent way to finish the drive.

That
was a horrible call on Potter. He didn’t use his hands to hit Freeman. What a joke.

The announcers
said it was bogus. Wish I coulda seen it myself.
Aside from 3 plays (2 penalies and the pick-six) an excellent half of football, I would say.

Do you think it's time
if we are certain we have a hold of the game, that they put in another QB?
At some point before the season ends, that needs to happen, right?

I think
if its still 35-14 to start the fourth I would put in Witt and then let Lee get in also.

I think we're getting close enough to think about it...
Get the lead to 28 points, and it’s a no brainer.
Note that K-State already pulled Freeman…

This defensive drive...
…is rather disappointing… We can put the talk of putting the reserves in on hold, though a few may be coming in due to injuries….

Well
they missed a hold and a block in the back. Also missed a blatant PI penalty the play before Joe ran the TD. Refs starting to stink it up here late in the game
