I’ve been really busy with work the last few days, but it’s taken those few days to get over the horrible loss that the Wildcats suffered against Nebraska on national television.

The wonderful part of the experience was hearing the roar of the crowd at the beginning of the game.  The KSU fans brought their A-game.  It was so loud I couldn’t hear the announcer over the big speakers.

Nebraska was just too much for us to handle – either on offense or defense.

Half-time brought us entertainment from the NU Marching Band (which wasn’t well-received by a grumpy crowd) and the KSU Marching Band (which was very well received by a crowd that loved anything that wasn’t NU).

The girls stayed behind on this trip because it was such a late game on a school night.  So, our very good friends Trey and Jennifer came with us.  We had a wonderful tailgate with grilled burgers made from ground prime rib.  Sides included beans and cheesy corn from Jack Stack BBQ.  Complemented with good beer – the tailgate meal was awesome.  Too bad we lose every game that we invite them to!

Well – here’s hoping that we can win against KU this next Thursday.  We’ll be playing in Lawrence, so we won’t be going to the game.  However, we WILL be watching as it’s on TV.  K-S-U WILDCATS!
