Greetings, Buff fans, from www.cuatthegame.com
Okay, we’ve reached the midway point of the 2008 regular season, and the Buffs are 3-3. If offered this record two months ago, I would have taken it (I'm guessing most of us would). Still, the way the Buffs have lost the last three games has been disconcerting.
To get you back in a positive frame of mind, I offer you this week’s “T.I.P.S.”
T - Talent. A look at the very talented CU offensive players - who won’t see the field until 2009;
I - Intangibles. Ron Prince has beaten Dan Hawkins twice, and has won five more games (16-15 v. 11-20). So why is Prince on the hot seat, and Hawkins getting a contract extension?;
P - Preparation/Schedule. The Wildcats have three likely losses staring them in the face after Saturday. Will this hurt or help the Buffs?; and
S - Stats. Write these down. Memorize them. Quote them. You’ll get excited about Saturday.
Plus -
Trivia - What is it about Kansas State and the “Wabash Cannonball”? What infamous NCAA records to the Wildcats hold? From where did the “Wildcats” nickname come?
Archived Games - a multitude of 10/18 games, including three CU games (CU upsets Missouri in ‘75; dominates Kansas in ‘97; and wins on the last play against KSU in 2004).
Life is good. The Buffs have three wins, and six more opportunities for savoring sweet victory await. Kansas State is far from great - let's go get 'em!
Go Buffs!
