Kansas State Players Remain Angry Following Back to Back Close Losses to Top 20 Ranked Teams

Kansas State knew that this part of their schedule would be tough facing four top 20 ranked teams in five games, and their 0-2 start to that five game stretch angers the Wildcats.

The Wildcats first loss was by two points to Oklahoma State and SNYDER 9-15then they followed that by a last-minute touchdown loss to TCU last weekend.

K-State Quarterback, Joe Hubener explained that they were angry after the OSU loss and the loss Saturday to TCU just piled it on.

“We’re tired of losing these tough games. We know that we can play with anybody, we showed that. TCU is a great team and we played right with them the whole game,” said Hubener. “We fully expect OU to come in here prepared (Saturday), but we want this win.”

Oklahoma will also be coming into the game angry after a 24-17 loss to Texas last week that dropped them from ranked 10th in the nation to 19th.

It’s ok for the players to be angry according to Coach Bill Snyder but it’s what they do with that anger is what matters.

“At the end of the day it’s really about what do we do about that anger, and what do we do about that, hopefully, passion that is created through that anger to rectify whatever the issue may be,” said Snyder. “I know Oklahoma will be that way, and I’m certainly hoping that our people will.”

A Kansas State win Saturday will be the Wildcats first win over the Sooners in Manhattan since 1996, and its first win over a ranked opponent when it’s unranked since the 2011 Baylor game.

Saturday’s game will kick off at 2:30 pm from Bill Snyder Family Stadium. You can catch that game starting with pre-game at 12:30 pm on the “Talk of JC” 1420 AM.
