Kansas State athletics, 1914-15: Lowman’s end

The second turn through the Missouri Valley was even worse than the first for the KSAC Aggies, and it would have dire consequences.

The season kicked off with a 15-0 home win over Southwestern, but a 0-0 tie with Emporia Normal a week later was a harbinger of what was to come. Nebraska, Kansas, Missouri, and Oklahoma, combined to outscore the Aggies 124-13. The losing streak extended to five with a 26-16 season-ending loss to Washburn.

That left KSAC with a 1-5-1 record, 0-3 in the conference — dead last. On the bright side, it would be 25 years before a team approaching this level of futility took the field in Manhattan.
