The start of the 2018 has been...underwhelming. Not that it wasn’t expected — many predicted Kansas State would be 2-2 at this point of the season — it’s how the Wildcats have gotten here that has most fans uninspired. A lackluster win to start the season and two blowout losses have left little confidence in this year’s version of the SnyderCats.
But that means nothing today. The Texas Longhorns are in town, and there is something about Manhattan that has stymied the burnt orange bovines again and again. Dating back to the dark ages 1927, the first time the two teams played in Manhattan, the Longhorns have managed just one win in eight trips to the Little Apple.
