The last time Texas won in Manhattan, the only time Texas has ever won in Manhattan, the two teams taking the field finished the season with identical 11-2 records and mirrored in the polls (6/7 and 7/6). Some kid named Vince Young was riding the pine on the Texas sideline, and some other dude named Ell Roberson leading the Wildcat offense.
This year is not even close to that one. This game most feels like 2010, though in many ways this Cat team is the exact opposite of the 2010 squad.
K-State and Texas enter today’s contest sporting equally disappointing 3-3 records, and the best win between the two teams may be K-State’s shootout win over Texas Tech in Manhattan two weeks ago.
