I don't know guys , would playing WSU really be that bad ?
Dec 06, 2021 12:20 AM #1

Just watching the KSU/WSU game tonight, actually kind of enjoying watching. Makes me wonder in a way why SHOULDN'T we play WSU ? - -I know a lot of fans don't want to see it and that's ok I understand but yet I think it could really turn into a sweet battle. We have no reason to not play these guys, I know we gain nothing recruiting anything like that but it would be great the fan battles , barbs.

KSU?WSU tonight is the first in 18 years they said - -would be a good in-state game - be kind of like Uk/Lousiville I dunno I would just kind of like to see them play - tired of hearing them saying how we are afraid of playing them - - Are w afraid ? - -I* wouldn't think so - -shouldn't be. I just think it would be better to play them in a classic Non Con instead of Tarrelton state Stonybrook or someone like that - -I could be wrong it's ok - just one persons view

I like playing Missouri and wouldn't mind Wichita at all.

We are doing them a huge favor, they weaken our schedule! They're next to last in Sec

I agree I wouldn't mind it would add some even more dis like to this team - like has been said before teams making revenue with games like this anyways - -why not keep it in State revenue ?

@Crimsonorblue22 I agree they've regressed badly. I still want to play them. It's a rivalry. They were always my favorite games on the schedule.

@wissox I have no desire to help their program!

Zero desire to play them, zero. Same for Methzu

My favorite game with my youngest was the last border war game. So long suckers, Sec! Look at them and Nebraska. 💸💸💸

Ditto. No raging anger, though. Just a nice, calm, slightly simmering hate that in itself is deeply satisfying.

should play , makes us look like we are scared to play them. If not then play put them back in the pecking order where they need to be. - - Always good games

We need a strong preseason schedule not them. Plus our fans bring money to their school. They have zero support.

WSU would be a stronger non con for sure over some of these cupcakes we scheduled this season. - - Let me ask do we think we benefit more from playing teams like Tarrleton - or some of these other petty little schools or other quality teams and yes WSU is a quality team. Not saying a powerhouse team but more quality.

Does a game against WSU help develop improve a players skills or does some of these little schools - do we want a take for granted W a 2- plus win game or a game that is going to challenge the guys and be more beneficial in tight games later in the Season - -just makes sense , the only way this comes across is that it makes us look scared. I know the players aren't but what about the fans ?

We already can recruit in wichita. Don't need to go there. We play those others schools because they offer different styles of play we look for in the tourney.

@Crimsonorblue22 If misery was still competitive in basketball would you want to play them? I mean I think I know your answer, but just curious.
