The Numbers

The Game
It’s senior day for Kansas State and it’s hate week for their fans, meaning KU will be (as always) walking into a hostile environment. Bill Snyder’s team has uncharacteristically struggled offensively at times this year, so there’s a possibility that Kansas can keep this game close enough to have a chance at the end.
However, it’s still Kansas State. It’s still the Bill Snyder hex. The man is 20-4 in his career against the Jayhawks, and three of those losses came in his first four seasons in Manhattan. A Kansas win would be a second-straight monumental upset, and would most certainly prove that progress is indeed being made under David Beaty.
Rock Chalk!
