Last week in the Texas preview, I wrote this: “If K-State can’t get back on track this weekend in Manhattan, then things are about to get exponentially worse.”
Exponential may have been the wrong word. I’m still not sold on Texas as anything other than a top-30(ish) team, and K-State has been a lot worse than that so far. So losing to them wasn’t the end of the world. But as a home game against a not-great team, it was an opportunity a team like K-State needed to take advantage of. Alas.
If last week was an opportunity to get back on track, then this week’s trip to Waco could be a reckoning.
