-Thoughts on Strong? They are not bad, but it's a mismatch when he goes against Snyder. They are playing harder for Strong, but if they have three straight losing seasons it'll be tough for him to survive. It'd be the first time since the 30's they had 3 straight losing seasons.
-Nate: It's tough to play QB at K-State, but Jesse is coming around and played good Saturday. Is he getting there? Yes, but he's got a long ways to go. His upside is very high. He's showed his speed lately, without even using much of QB run game. And, he's throwing better. Showed the down the line pass a bunch Sat. He did it very effectively. But, that's part of why you saw his completion rate so high. But, that's also why the Baylor's, etc., completion rate is so high.
-And, WR's played well. Made some plays and caught the ball very well.
-Now, they have to get a road win....haven't got that done yet this year.
-How about ISU? Close losses.....are they coming around? I'm seeing a good strategy from ISU. They've been coming out strong in these games. They strategize differently each game, and thus able to get off to good starts. Lead at half against Baylor, OSU, and TX......but eventually the other teams talent takes over and gets job done. But, I'm impressed with their preparation.
-They've had tough schedule and a lot of road games. Four of last five are at home for them.
-They will get over hump one of these weeks, just hope it's not this Saturday.
-Prediction: 32-24 K-State.
