August 10, 2025 Joe Mathieu Comments 0 Comment

The 2025 college football season is upon us! K-State plays Iowa State a week from Saturday in Dublin, Ireland. That means it is time for my annual K-State football record prediction. I find it more difficult than ever to predict how the Big 12 Conference and K-State football will play out this year. The transfer portal raises more questions than it provides answers.

March 9, 2025 Joe Mathieu Comments 0 Comment

Iowa State beat the K-State men’s basketball team 73-57 on senior night in Manhattan yesterday. The game was never competitive, as the Cyclones jumped out to a 22-11 lead at the start and never looked back. The game finalized another disappointing season for Jerome Tang’s Wildcats, who finished the regular season 15-16 overall and 9-11 in the Big 12 Conference. Since Tang took over as K-State’s head basketball coach, the program has trended downward: 2022-23: Overall record : 26-10. Big…
