Things haven’t been too happy in the Little Apple this football season. K-State is 2-3 (0-2), and 14 unanswered points in the second half of Saturday’s game against Texas still led to a five-point loss—the first home loss against Texas since many of this year’s players were in preschool.
But after the Texas game, anxiety in Manhattan ramped up to perhaps its highest levels since Bill Snyder returned in 2009. Snyder told the media he doesn’t think it matters who starts the game at quarterback, and kept up his season-long trend of speaking much more positively of Alex Delton than he does of Skylar Thompson, despite Thompson’s play often yielding better results on the field.
