Husker-in-Manhattan

500 GA's available for the game folks! http://www.kstatesports.com/sports/m-baskbl/spec-rel/020111aab.html Come on down to Manhattan for one last time!!! GO BIG RED!!!!

Well the weather here in Manhattan isnt the greatest right now. Still blowing snow and temps are in the negatives. My guess would be 6 inch's with ice under it. They havent postponed the game yet and I dont think they will. But I do think the "Octagon of Doom" will be more like the "Octagon of Gloom" tomorrow night. I would think there will be plenty of seats available without many people being able to travel here for the game. As far as the game goes... It really looks like Frank Martin has lost this team. Seems like most of them dont want to play for the guy and their is ZERO leadership on the court. Kstate has struggled on the road but are a completely different team at home. I think this is going to be a great game and I am really looking forward to watching the Huskers Celebrate one last victory here in Manhattan!! GO BIG RED!!!

I dont post on here much but when I come across something like this it is just disappointing. What exactly were your expectations for this team? A National Title or bust? Coming into the season we all knew we would have an excellent D. But the jury was still out on our offense so if you set your expectations as high as a National Title maybe you put the bar a little to high for this team. That is not their fault, it is yours. Dont get me wrong I would have loved to see us go 13-0 and play for a National Title. But I just really want to walk out the Big 12 with that trophy that we deserve. And I will not give up on this team. If Saturday nights loss has not SPARKED your enthusiasm maybe you should check your RED in at the door. If you have tickets, give them up, FOR GOOD! This teams goal of winning a Big 12 Title is still there. And if you aren't board then we dont want you!!! GO BIG RED!!!

Thanks. I prob check out Willie's before the game to grab some grub, maybe stop by Tubby's or So Long Saloon. Hopefully 10-15,000 husker fans will be down their so I wont look out of place. You won't look out of place. Place will be crawling with red. Two years ago it was Rusty's that was packed with red before and after the game. The place is a poop hole though. If you gotta take a pregame dump make sure you go across the street to Jimmy Johns. Heck I wouldnt even take a leak in that place. Other then that, Tubby's and Kites are two good places but that is where most of the Purple people hangout. And yes Bad things do happen after midnight down there...bad mixture of Military and college students.

If you arent planning on tailgating and want to check out aggieville before the game, the best place to park is City park. Just a few blocks south of Aggieville. Aggieville offers a FREE bus ride to the stadium which I believe starts 2 hours prior to game time. It picks people up in front of a bar called "Porters" which is located on "Manhattan Avenue". Just down the street from Varney's Bookstore. Drops you off about 2 blocks from the stadium gate. They also run the bus for 1 hour after the game and drops you off the same place it picked you up. Its normally about a 15-20 minute bus ride depending on how many stops it makes. However it does take awhile after the game to get back down to Aggieville due to traffic. If you are going to tailgate or getting to town late there is two huge parking lots on both sides of the stadium(pay to park) or you can pick a nice field to the north to park in(pay to park) but that is where the college kids tailgate so I dont suggest that. I prefer the bus from Aggieville. Looking forward to seeing some Friendly's down here!!! GO BIG RED!!!

You can still get tickets thru the Kstate ticket office guys! I was just checking out one of their boards and they are telling people not tell sell their tickets to the "Nubbers"....I laugh because the "Nubber's" can still buy them from their Athletic department!!! If you can come on down!!! Its going to be a great time!!! GO BIG RED!!!

Cant wait to see all the RED down here!!! I remember two years ago after we dropped 56 on them. I was riding on the free bus ride from the stadium down to Aggieville. The bus was about half full of Nebraska fans and the other half Kstate fans. Somebody towards the front of the Bus dropped something(think it was a cell phone) and the bus driver flips on the lights and goes "Someone drop something?" a clever Husker fans responds with "Yeah we just dropped 56 on the Wildcats"...whole bus went nuts. Well except the purple people.

Looks like the campaign has started! I am hearing rumblings down here of a "B****** at the Bill". Boy that is going to make the 20,000 RED wearing fans really stand out on National TV!!! Here is the logo for it! Who's coming to Manhattan??? BTW...tickets are still available thru Kstatesports.com!!

Nah...two years ago after we dropped 56 on them there wasnt much purple in Aggieville after that game. Rusty's(the biggest bar down there but dirty as hell) was packed wall to wall with Nebraska fans.

They are already talking about down here...they are looking forward to going into the game 4-0 and thinking they will come out 5-0. I visit there scout board from time to time and they are angry people. But usually it is all talk. I have been to two Nebraska games down here and the only time I had problems was when Crouch got his head ripped off. They know how to lose they just dont know how to act when they win. with that said....Lets paint "The Bill" RED!!!! Tickets Still available!!! kstatesports.com Look forward to seeing the Red down here in 2 weeks!!!!

Yes but in the Big 12 all teams will play each other. They do play a round robin in the PAC 10 and as recent as 2006 they have had "co-champs".

I am in a discussion with a co-worker about how the conference champion is determined in a round robin format like that the Big 12 will be next year. If two teams finish with a 8-1 record in conference play, how is champion determined? I am saying it is head to head result. He is saying that both teams are awarded the conference title. He points to 1999 when Kstate and Nebraska both finished 7-1 in conference play and both teams got trophies.

I used to be the Exec. Chef for K-State. I still know some students so I'll get in that way. Should be fun Be careful over there....some are saying they are going to treat us worse then Colorado fans do.

Pat Summitt says "thank you"...

Just got my tickets in the mail on Friday from Kstate university! Thanks Kstate fans for not being faithful!!! Sections 15 16 and 17 I was told are where the visitors normally sit. Plenty of tickets still!!! Lots of talk going on down here on how they are going to beat us! "Fans" are saying they are going to have an amazing offense with the addition of Chris Harper and Brodrick Smith. Saying Daniel Thomas is going to run all over us! I honestly cant wait for this game to get here!!!!

I got my tickets thru the kstate athletic Department. I was told that Sections 16 and 17 in the lower bowl were the visitors section as well as sections 429 and 430 in the upper bowl. All tickets for this game are $75. I was told last week that there are PLENTY of tickets left for this game. If you need tickets call 800-221-cats. Just tell them you want to sit in the visitors section(they will probably ask you if you know of anyone else that needs tickets from Nebraska, they did to me LOL) Lets paint the town RED like we always do!!! GO BIG RED!!!

Alley-The North end Zone is now what they call "young Alumni" and also has some General Admission mixed in. If you are looking at getting tickets and are afraid to get stuck next to a Purple Person Section 16 is your best bet. The Lady at the ticket office told me this section is for the Visitors. GO BIG RED!

They have always jacked prices up for their "Big Games"...Nebraska and Texas game tickets are both $75 a piece...they are selling Texas or Nebraska Plus one of their Non-conference games(excluding UCLA) for $100. They will pretty much do anything to sell tickets to games at this point.

Hey guys, I dont post on here often but thought I would let everyone know that Single Game Tickets at Kstate went on Sale today. Tickets to the Nebraska game are $75 a piece. I was just in their ticket office and the girl I talked to said there are plenty of seats left throughout the stadium. She told me that the vistors usually sit in Section 16 and 15 in the lower bowl and then sections 430/429 in the upper bowl. This is the last time we will play in Manhattan for a long time, So I would love to see "The Bill" packed with Red!!! There are a lot of upset people down here and are pointing towards this game to shove it up Nebraskas rear end for leaving the Big 12. The is the LINK to their website or call 785-532-7606 or 800-221-CATS Hope to see you all in Manhattan real soon!!! GO BIG RED!!!

You have no idea how many times I have heard this conversation actually go on...more so from the Kstate Side of things...This is hilarious!

This is just a taste of what I go thru on a daily basis....

Never Mind...looks like some kstate decided not to go and turned their tickets back in to the University...Got some for $25 bucks each not bad...here is website if anyone is interested in coming down on Wednesday night! http://www.kstatesports.com//ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=400&ATCLID=204887911 or the phone number...800-221-cats Go Big Red!!!

Does anyone know an easy way of getting tickets for this game? Kstate has sold out the rest of this season and when I called Nebraska's ticket office they said that all away ticket sales go thru the Home school's ticket office. I have looked online and have found some but would rather not pay $50-$100 to a kstate fan, plus two years ago when I went to the game there was a section of behind the bench of Nebraska Fans and a section up in the corner of Husker fans...anyone have some suggestions?

Ok not sure why its not working....try this one... http://sports.espn.go.com/dallas/ncf/news/story?id=4903982
