Ya ya, everyone has a lifetime edge over kstate, but those games prior to current player's birth only matter to old people. Taters know replacing grampa will be a challenge, but I gurandamntee Snyder is and has been working on succession diligently. Patterson was the previous heir, but he was too stand up to step over Snyder when the fans threw Snyder under the bus. ( I understand taters have since massaged the truth about snyder's retirement). If Patterson had replaced gramps and prince only referred to a pop singer, the unenlightened purple horde would be insufferable.... Ok, more insufferable.
In the big 8, Nebraska raided Kansas at their leisure. And big 8 academic rules allowed some really suspect jc students play football. I'll let jiggsy recount a great running back from coffeyville that liked to rape women, I just can't remember where he played in the big 8 (hint, I think he went to prison near Lincoln)
Seriously, there really is some great FB talent in the Jayhawk juco, but many can't play in the big ten and those rascally texans insisted on similar standards when the big 12 was formed.
