Kansas State Game Thread Brought to You By Depends

[ShotgunDawg]

Not sure if I titled that correctly but it's time to talk some football.

Of note: we've added these little bullies to our helmets like Ohio State or FSU

[ShotgunDawg]

BTW, watching Gameday, has any program every received more attention for doing less than A&M?

Giving them Gameday was like offering charity to the rich

[ShotgunDawg]

Looking at the pre-game videos on twitter, it looks like we are playing one of those gray, November games at Arkansas

[Bully13]

Son of a Bitch. 29 minutes to kick off and the weather here in Ft Worth has my Direct T.V. out. What's my ass to do? Crank up the car and head to Boston's?

[ShotgunDawg]

The M-State on our helmets is so generic that I'm not sure how we could possibly build a brand with that logo

[bostondawg]

Son of a Bitch. 29 minutes to kick off and the weather here in Ft Worth has my Direct T.V. out. What's my ass to do? Crank up the car and head to Boston's?

Weather up in Cambridge is great!

Where should it have been?

[ShotgunDawg]

Where should it have been?

Yeah, I hear you. I don't have a better option. Just seems over the top for a 7-8 win program

[msstate7]

Yeah, I hear you. I don't have a better option. Just seems over the top for a 7-8 win program

They got it by default... new big name coach hosting a playoff contender

[ShotgunDawg]

They got it by default... new big name coach hosting a playoff contender

I hope they lose by 30 tonight

I don't have an issue with blue bloods that are good teams getting tons of publicity. It's the blue bloods that aren't good & get publicity that I have an issue with.

I'm not even sure if A&M is a blue blood. I don't know what they are

[Quaoarsking]

Where should it have been?

USC - Stanford probably. #17 at #10

[msstate7]

I hope they lose by 30 tonight

Wouldn't hurt my feelings. Doubt it though

[ShotgunDawg]

Wouldn't hurt my feelings. Doubt it though

Probably not. I bet they lose by a good bit though.

Not sure how A&M will score on Clemson. Mond isn't good enough

[msstate7]

USC - Stanford probably. #17 at #10

Do they even care there? Esp to get up at 6am local time

[msstate7]

Line down to 7. Lot of people liking KSU

[BrunswickDawg]

Yeah, I hear you. I don't have a better option. Just seems over the top for a 7-8 win program

UGA vs USC in Columbia would have been a better choice

ETA - who the hell is the goober reppin A&M??

[ShotgunDawg]

3 Freshmen made the trip: Murphy, Whop, & Goodman

[starkvegasdawg]

Gameday crew all think we win.

[ShotgunDawg]

We need to get off to a clean start. Can't look sloppy like we did at Arky last year

[ShotgunDawg]

The key to this game for me is our tackling.

Gotta tackle well & not give them any freebees.

[Bass Chaser]

UGA vs USC in Columbia would have been a better choice

ETA - who the hell is the goober reppin A&M??

Make-a-Wish recipient.

[Liverpooldawg]

UGA vs USC in Columbia would have been a better choice

ETA - who the hell is the goober reppin A&M??

I was wondering who that guy is too. He IS a perfect rep for them though.

[msstate7]

We need to get off to a clean start. Can't look sloppy like we did at Arky last year

Fitz is a slow starter in the passing game. That needs to change today

[msstate7]

Make-a-Wish recipient.

Outstanding then, aTm

[BrunswickDawg]

Make-a-Wish recipient.
If so, worthy cause. But, the only thing missing is his milkman uniform

[ShotgunDawg]

Fitz is a slow starter in the passing game. That needs to change today

I've always thought the key with Fitz is that he comes out too pumped up & needs to tire out a bit before he starts to have more touch on his passes

[ShotgunDawg]

It's Reveille Corso. Not Reveree

[Fader21]

I might be in the minority but I don't like the silver especially with the all white jerseys.

[TaleofTwoDogs]

Son of a Bitch. 29 minutes to kick off and the weather here in Ft Worth has my Direct T.V. out. What's my ass to do? Crank up the car and head to Boston's?

I'm sure the Ft Worth chapter is hosting a viewing. In Dallas, the chapter has 3 viewing sites. I would assume the Thirsty Lion in Las Colinas would be nearest to you. Of course, there's always Boston's.
Good luck. Pray to the Spirit Indian and maybe Direct will miraculously come back on.

[Dawg61]

Are the Bullies gonna add up over the season on the helmets? I LOVE THIS!!!!

[ShotgunDawg]

Molly McGrath is fire today

[ShotgunDawg]

We get the ball first

[TUSK]

Where should it have been?

The only other possibilities I see are 3 UGA/24 SCe and 17 USC/10 Stanford...

[Dawg61]

I was wondering who that guy is too. He IS a perfect rep for them though.

He's an aTm student that had open heart surgery and ESPN is giving him the ultimate fan experience.

[ShotgunDawg]

Looked slow on the return

[msstate7]

Fair catch those high kicks

[msstate7]

Sigh

[ShotgunDawg]

Fair catch those high kicks

Agree or get behind them & catch them running up

[ShotgunDawg]

I thought that was a first down

[msstate7]

3 and out

Best play was a fitz run... imagine that

[ShotgunDawg]

Good lord. Bad start. We look slow

[Liverpooldawg]

Shaky start

[maroonmania]

That KSU DE was about a full yard offsides on that 3rd down.

[msstate7]

2 penalties 1:12 in

[Dawgology]

Don't look good so far

[ShotgunDawg]

Who was the punt guy that just downed the ball while it was rolling ? Sheesh

[VandelayIndustries]

That KSU DE was about a full yard offsides on that 3rd down.

Yep, was looking for the flag

[Goldendawg]

RTDB!

[IMissJack]

Boy we came out looking like garbage on offense. Illegal motion and delay of game in first 4 snaps.

[msstate7]

Had em.

[ShotgunDawg]

Great play by the secondary

[RocketDawg]

Who was the guest picker on Gameday?

[VandelayIndustries]

Nice play Abram

[IMissJack]

RTDB!

Yes. That throw by Fitz was no good.

[maroonmania]

Yep, was looking for the flag

Certainly haven't missed any flags on us so far.

[ShotgunDawg]

Did really touch that punt at the 40?

[ShotgunDawg]

Damn McLaurin

[msstate7]

Atta boy, sweat

[msstate7]

Qb laid there a min. Good hit, sweat

[VandelayIndustries]

Alright settle down here, Let's go

[ShotgunDawg]

Mixon makes me nervous.

[CadaverDawg]

McLaurin got dozed by that RB

[ShotgunDawg]

We need to run the ball a bit here

[starkvegasdawg]

QB now has Sweat on his mind. Soon as Simmons lights him up he's going to get the jittery feet.

[maroonmania]

This game is going to all about our offense. Just don't see KSU scoring that many points on us.

[DownwardDawg]

Hopefully we realize we are in a fight now.

[Goldendawg]

We need to run the ball a bit here

Get the ground game going! Give Aries and Hill the ball.

[ShotgunDawg]

McLaurin got dozed by that RB

Boy did he. I've never seen McLaurin laid out like that.

That RB fumbled three times last week, so he probably came out pissed

[msstate7]

Mixon makes me nervous.

I can't remember the last punt returner we had that didn't

[Dawgology]

This is why I was concerned with Fitz not playing last weekend. Going to take him several series to settle down and we can't afford that here.

[CadaverDawg]

So many damn commercials

[ShotgunDawg]

I can't remember the last punt returner we had that didn't

Fred Ross was pretty good at it. It's like playing CF. You can tell who can judge the ball

[ShotgunDawg]

Damn Austin.

[TUSK]

McLaurin got targeted by that RB

fify*

[msstate7]

I'm starting to wonder how much of aTm's troubles were sumlin. BYU took em out last week, and now Houston up 7-0 about 3 mins in

[msstate7]

Damn Austin.

Yeah, gotta catch that. That pass was big time from fitz

[maroonmania]

Dang slide??

[ShotgunDawg]

Well, we're running Mullen's offense again. LOL

[msstate7]

Fitz looks fast

[BrunswickDawg]

Thought you guys said Fitz wouldn't be on designed runs this year??**

[ShotgunDawg]

Fitz is running well, but obviously a little tentative at contact

[msstate7]

Well, we're running Mullen's offense again. LOL

No problem with it. This team is built for it

[SailingDawg]

RTGDFB

[ShotgunDawg]

No problem with it. This team is built for it

Completely agree. I thought it was funny that people thought we wouldn't run him.

[msstate7]

3 penalties

[ShotgunDawg]

Kylin ****ING HILL

[BrunswickDawg]

Hill is a damn beast

[VandelayIndustries]

Kylin all day

[msstate7]

Hill is sumpin

[Bdawg]

Hell yeah Hill!!!

[ShotgunDawg]

Fitz throwing high in the endzone.... again

[msstate7]

Come on fitz... you have got to complete that pass this year

[SailingDawg]

That's some BS. The offsides should take precident since it occurred first. No play.

While I'm typing, Kylin Hill takes the 17 off.

[CadaverDawg]

Nick's accuracy is still bad yall

[ShotgunDawg]

Dammit Fitz.

[VandelayIndustries]

Running all over the field, so let's pass in the red zone

[Bdawg]

Run the damn ball coach!!!

[msstate7]

1 RB run = 53 yards

[CadaverDawg]

We went from a coach that tries to run too much in the RedZone, to one that doesn't run it enough

[maroonmania]

Fitz still as overhyped and inaccurate as usual.

[ShotgunDawg]

Plays are getting in too slow.

This staff needs to tighten that up.

I thought it was a little slow last week as well.

[Liverpooldawg]

Fitz is still Fitz, the good and the bad.

[msstate7]

Nick's accuracy is still bad yall

Hopefully just 1st game deal. I like the reads so far.

[Bdawg]

Nick's accuracy is still bad yall

Hopefully just still jacked up. He will get settled

[Dawgology]

Hopefully just still jacked up. He will get settled

That's what I'm hoping also.

[Goldendawg]

Run the read running play!

[HoopsDawg]

Hopefully just still jacked up. He will get settled

Yeah, he is jacked up. Every throw is 100 mph.

[Pollodawg]

Meh.....

[ShotgunDawg]

Hopefully just 1st game deal. I like the reads so far.

Agree. We are throwing it to the right guys

Gotta run the redzone though

[starkvegasdawg]

Should have said we're the SEC and we're going to run it down your throat and make you like it.

[CadaverDawg]

Don't make it harder on yourself, Joe....run the damn ball

[Dawg61]

Fitz accuracy right now makes me miss Key's.

[msstate7]

Be careful here. Pass coming and they know it. Don't force it fitz, and don't hesitate to take off

[Pollodawg]

Fitz looks like he hasn’t thrown a pass since the Egg Bowl.....

[Bothrops]

Plays are getting in too slow.

This staff needs to tighten that up.

I thought it was a little slow last week as well.

This^ It's a small problem for now.

[Gutter Cobreh]

Fitz still as overhyped and inaccurate as usual.

He can't hit the broad side of a barn.... I would support Guidry instagramming at halftime if this keeps up.

[KOdawg1]

Not melting guys, but Fitz is still highly inaccurate.. at least so far.

If we're going to take that next step, we're going to have to throw the ball

[Liverpooldawg]

The last play he should have run it.

[HoopsDawg]

Run the damn ball coach!!!

Wow! Anyone that 2nd guess Coach JoMo on playcalling needs to STFU. He might be the best playcaller in CFB.

[BeardoMSU]

I see the game thread has already gone off the rails...

[Maroonthirteen]

Fitz is still Fitz, the good and the bad.

Yep. He is always to jacked up or nervous to start games. He will settle but his passes are terrible at the moment.

Also, I’m not too impressed with this passing offense so far this season. I know it is ridiculous earlier but....gezzz can we hit a receiver in stride? Just
Once....

[VandelayIndustries]

Tough catch, gotta make it

[ShotgunDawg]

Two drops for Williams. That was a great throw.

Come on Austin

[msstate7]

Williams has had his hands on 2 balls and dropped both

[Liverpooldawg]

Terrible play calling in the red zone, just awful.

[BrunswickDawg]

Austin should have had that

[Dawgology]

They haven't been perfect throws but Williams is dropping a lot. Not impressed

[starkvegasdawg]

Should have caught that.

[CadaverDawg]

Have to catch that, rook

[HoopsDawg]

Damn it Jenkins. Totally blew his assignment.

[SandlotDawg]

I don’t like 3 pass attempts inside the 10.

[msstate7]

Get mixon in the slot if Williams not gonna catch

[ShotgunDawg]

Damn. This staff needs to get their shit together. Unorganized

[maroonmania]

Seems Fitz takes the 1st quarter every game to stop overthrowing everything. That one could have been caught but still too high.

[starkvegasdawg]

Another penalty...

[Liverpooldawg]

Three pre-snap penalties

[KOdawg1]

Why do we have to take so long to snap the freaking ball?

[Pollodawg]

We’re so sloppy. So sloppy.

[Statecoachingblows**]

Got to make a catch

[ShotgunDawg]

Good kick.

Run the damn ball

[CadaverDawg]

I don’t like 3 pass attempts inside the 10.

Me either

[starkvegasdawg]

At least we got points out of it.

[BeardoMSU]

Get mixon in the slot if Williams not gonna catch

He was catching in practice though***

[ShotgunDawg]

Why do we have to take so long to snap the freaking ball?

Plays aren't getting in fast enough

[maroonmania]

Damn it Jenkins. Totally blew his assignment.

Yep, looked like a jailbreak through the middle. And that was AFTER a timeout.

[HoopsDawg]

Get mixon in the slot if Williams not gonna catch

Agree or move Whop to the slot.

[msstate7]

Damn. This staff needs to get their shit together. Unorganized

You gonna hold Moorhead to the same penalty standard you hold Taggart lol

[ShotgunDawg]

We’re so sloppy. So sloppy.

Agree. The good news is that we should get better as the season progresses. Schedule ramps up nicely

[CadaverDawg]

These presnap penalties are coaching issues. Come on guys, get the plays in and let's get some rhythm

[ShotgunDawg]

You gonna hold Moorhead to the same penalty standard you hold Taggart lol

I should

[msstate7]

He was catching in practice though***

He showed great hands last week. Hopefully just nerves

[Bdawg]

Wow! Anyone that 2nd guess Coach JoMo on playcalling needs to STFU. He might be the best playcaller in CFB.

Not 2nd guessing anyone, but it's quite obvious we are blowing them off the ball. What are we averaging? 15 yds/carry right now? Run the ball and we have a td instead of fg.

[shoeless joe]

Hill completely whiffed on that blitz pick up...good thing that's not important.

[Goldendawg]

I don?t like 3 pass attempts inside the 10.

Agree. Love Hill, but is A-Train gonna go from a 1000 yd rusher to 100 this year?

[Dawg61]

I see the game thread has already gone off the rails...

This is gonna be an ED remembers thread. Pull up your panties ladies.

[MaroonFlounder]

What is Fitz % so far? 1/7 is it? So much for 65%. Much less 60%

[HoopsDawg]

Damn. This staff needs to get their shit together. Unorganized

please shut up.

[msstate7]

Sumlin and Arizona down 14-0 8 mins in.

aTm May be a lot better than I thought. Sumlin is garbage

[ShotgunDawg]

Hill completely whiffed on that blitz pick up...good thing that's not important.

That's his issue & where Aeris is much better

[maroonmania]

Pitiful KO coverage there.

[CadaverDawg]

Terrible kick coverage. It was bad last week too

[KOdawg1]

Reporter says our guys are jawing with the fans..

C'mon guys

[ShotgunDawg]

Special teams look like crap.

[Dawg61]

Terrible play calling in the red zone, just awful.

Your boyfriend coaches at Florida now. Move on.

[RocketDawg]

Hill is a damn beast

Amen. That kid is good.

[ShotgunDawg]

Moohead may need to get in some assistant coach's asses. I know he's nice

[msstate7]

Reporter says our guys are jawing with the fans..

C'mon guys

I'm sure Peters and Guidry will tweet about it**

[ShotgunDawg]

Crap. Over pursued

[BrunswickDawg]

Shit

[SailingDawg]

Reporter says our guys are jawing with the fans..

C'mon guys

This is where a bunch of kids from the south can get intimidated. They love talking.

[msstate7]

Running qb and we have no spy on 3rd and 4

[GreenheadDawg]

Glad Fitz has been working on his accuracy**

[msstate7]

Watch qb run

[ShotgunDawg]

Glad Fitz has been working on his accuracy**

Fitz made two outstanding passes on that drive that were dropped by what is supposed to be a sure handed WR

[Liverpooldawg]

Your boyfriend coaches at Florida now. Move on.

That's all you got? Weak, even for you.

[Bothrops]

Their OL is one of the better ones we will face.

[CadaverDawg]

I'm not overly impressed with the staff so far. It's still WAY early, but our D isn't the aggressor today, and we're throwing too much on O.

[Goldendawg]

Their OL is holding its own thus far. Hope we wear them down with our depth.

[msstate7]

Houston 21-0

[duncflydawg]

Lot of inexperienced skill players right now. We know they have talent. They will work it out.

[ShotgunDawg]

I'm not overly impressed with the staff so far. It's still WAY early, but our D isn't the aggressor today, and we're throwing too much on O.

Doesn't feel like the staff is in sync yet

[CadaverDawg]

Knew a QB draw was coming and still couldn't stop it

[HoopsDawg]

Their OL is holding its own thus far. Hope we wear them down with our depth.

They returned all 5 starters from last year.

[msstate7]

Watch qb run

My God

[ShotgunDawg]

Leo has to be more physical

[HoopsDawg]

Knew a QB draw was coming and still couldn't stop it

That's on the LB's.

[msstate7]

Knew a QB draw was coming and still couldn't stop it

They can't complete passes. Shoop needs to wake up

[ShotgunDawg]

That's on the LB's.

Leo tried to arm tackle

[CadaverDawg]

Leo has to be more physical

He's playing soft and on his heels. Errol is our best aggressor at the moment

[HoopsDawg]

Houston 21-0

Maybe Kevin Sumlin is awful and Texas A&M is about to be good.

[ShotgunDawg]

Should be a personal foul on K-State

[Goldendawg]

We act like we have never seen a team with a QB that can run.

[SailingDawg]

I've seen two 'swats,' not quite punches thrown, by KSU O-linemen so far.

[maroonmania]

Thanks Simmons. Just give it to them.

[TUSK]

Houston 21-0

Dang, you mean to tell me Sumlin was the prob???:rolleyes:

[ShotgunDawg]

Ridiculous guys. Wakeup

[CadaverDawg]

We're letting them get us off our game. JoMo better tighten the F up or we're going to be very disappointed beginning today

[msstate7]

So penalty after penalty... players tweeting in games... we seem undisciplined

[DownwardDawg]

We look like shit

[HoopsDawg]

Shut up Ref, it's football.

[ShotgunDawg]

Why wasn't that a PF on K-State?

[SailingDawg]

They're getting in our heads.

[Liverpooldawg]

This is not going well.

[Dawgology]

We're junk. Lucky for 7 this year. Sorry guys

[SailingDawg]

Ref just chewed their ass, good on him.

[Bothrops]

Our secondary is gonna have to learn how to play.

[ShotgunDawg]

We look awful all the way around. Terrible leadership by the older players

[msstate7]

We look like shit

K state not fcs

[VandelayIndustries]

That a baby!!!!

[CadaverDawg]

Atta baby!!

[BulldogBear]

Should be a personal foul on K-State

They're not going to call many on K-State. They missed a guy lined up offsides on 3rd down on our 1st possession 3 and out. They also missed a face mask on Fitz on second drive.

[ShotgunDawg]

BOOM

May be a incomplete pass though

[msstate7]

Leo Lewis! Hell yeah! Been waiting on him for a year

[VandelayIndustries]

Snap the ball quick!!!

[Activated Alpha]

Good thing I kept hearing they wouldn't sell out for a 1100 game. Kept hearing we would mop the floor with these guys. Some of yall are wrong

[DownwardDawg]

Big hit

[Liverpooldawg]

K state not fcs

Not a terrible FCS. There might be a HS or two in Mississippi that could beat SFA.

[BrunswickDawg]

Need a TD on this drive

[Dawg61]

FUMBLEEEEEEE!!!!

[VandelayIndustries]

Uh oh being reviewed

[SandlotDawg]

We're junk. Lucky for 7 this year. Sorry guys

Overreact much?

[ShotgunDawg]

That's fumble. The QB had no control over the ball

[Liverpooldawg]

Good thing I kept hearing they wouldn't sell out for a 1100 game. Kept hearing we would mop the floor with these guys. Some of yall are wrong

There are plenty of empty seats there.

[SailingDawg]

That's more like it!

[bostondawg]

Leo has to be more physical

there you go.

[ShotgunDawg]

We are talented at least, so we make big plays

[BrunswickDawg]

Watch these ass hats reverse it

[TUSK]

is it pronounced "JERRY" or "GARY" Green...?

[HoopsDawg]

Good thing I kept hearing they wouldn't sell out for a 1100 game. Kept hearing we would mop the floor with these guys. Some of yall are wrong

I told yall all week this is a good football team. Took Ok. State to the woodshed last year and took OU to overtime. All 5 starters back on the O-line.

[Liverpooldawg]

If this is overturned the fix is in.

[ShotgunDawg]

This is a fumble. If overturn this they should be fired

[HoopsDawg]

is it pronounced "JERRY" or "GARY" Green...?

Jerry.

[maroonmania]

this is what's a killer. taking all this time to review an obvious call. Let's move on.

[msstate7]

Good thing I kept hearing they wouldn't sell out for a 1100 game. Kept hearing we would mop the floor with these guys. Some of yall are wrong

Not pretty so far, but I think this is us not playing well... not k state. I think we gas em 2nd half

[CadaverDawg]

This review should be easy unless they're jobbing us

[Bdawg]

Not even worth a review. He got smoked before he cocked the ball

[Goldendawg]

Reviews are ruining the pace of the games.

[ShotgunDawg]

This ref looks like dumbass

[BulldogBear]

Uh oh being reviewed

If they overturn it will be because they want to. It's "stands" at best. Even if it were not a fumble it's intentional grounding.

[HoopsDawg]

Why the fck is it taking so long.

[Bothrops]

This is their superbowl.

[Dawg61]

Turnover man wears a bulldog collar!! Nice

[KOdawg1]

They're gonna overturn this. It's gonna happen.

[HoopsDawg]

The impact made it look like a pass, but a clear fumble.

[VandelayIndustries]

Yep getting overturned, Garbage

[msstate7]

Why the fck is it taking so long.

Spot probably. They're gonna screw us

[FanninDawg]

What is the ref looking at?

[BrunswickDawg]

About to get hosed

[BulldogBear]

OMG, are they really dixin' to overturn this?

[Liverpooldawg]

If this is overturned the fix is in.

The fix is in. Now we know why the line moved in their favor.
