Longhorns motivated to beat K-State in Manhattan for first time since 2002

Death, taxes and Kansas State beating Texas at home.

Since 2002, they have all been certainties of life.

The K-State Wildcats have won five straight home football games against the Texas Longhorns, a streak that began in 2006 under former coach Ron Prince and has continued under Bill Snyder.

K-State has won big (39-14 in 2010, 23-0 in 2014, 42-24 in 2012) and small (24-21 in 2016 and 45-42 in 2006) over the years, with fans chanting the words “We own Texas” after each win.

The streak never seemed to garner much attention from Texas players under former coaches Mack Brown and Charlie Strong, but the Longhorns are taking a different approach with Tom Herman in charge.
