I will be at every Cats game I can be as long as they play them, I’ll always want the lads to do well and support the program, but it’s just a sad reality that with the Big 12 title game dying, we have lost our North Star. What we were playing for will no longer exist. Now, we’re playing to go get killed in the 2nd round by Ohio State. I grew up dreaming every fall of Kansas City and later Arlington, because it would show that little ole K-State was the class of the Big 12 conference. I didn’t care about Oregon or Alabama, I wanted to beat KU, OU, Iowa State, Texas, Oklahoma State. There’s no realistic exclamation point for a good regular season at a Big 12 land grant anymore. The worst part is absolutely no one, including the brand names, wanted this. They killed the greatest sport on Earth with the greatest regular season to ever be contested so a handful of suits could line their pockets. The games don’t matter from 2027 forward. It makes me want to throw up.
