Snyder on 810 said that Urban Meyer visited K-State and learned our offense in the 1990s.  Apparently, he is running a massaged version of it.  Snyder said if you changed the uniforms of K-State in the mid 1990s to Florida you would have a hard time telling the difference.

  My hopes for next year, tempered with a dash of reality.  5 or 6 wins, BUT with a defense that is not giving up 500yds a game, hopefully a good DC can get us into the top 30-40 in the country there.  I think our loses will be much closer, around 10-15 a game instead of the blow outs we endured this year.  Add that up and it equals what all KSU fans want: improvement with signs that we are back in the right direction, getting better and better.  Oh and about scheduling.  Wasn't it Prince that bought out the game with that powerhouse team Fresno?  Snyder tried to get series with Notre Dame and others around 2000 but they wanted 2-3 home games for each one here. Why would anyone agree to that?
