This past weekend my lovely bride and I embarked on our own road trip. This one had a definite purpose in mind.

GO CATS!


We passed some sights along the way


Finally we reached the holy grail


At game time the place was rockin'!


Finally, the win after 4 OT's!!!!

It's a lot of fun to watch your alma mater be successful on the football field.  Sadly many programs are successful on the field, but not in the classroom.  I am proud to say that Kansas State is one of the better programs in college football when it comes to educating student athletes.
K-State Places 16 on Academic All-Big 12 Football Team
"This continues a long tradition of academic excellence at K-State, the finest land grant university in the nation. Kansas State's football and all-sports graduation rates have led the Big 12 Conference in each of the last four years.Head Coach Bill Snyder has established a track record of encouraging academic achievement, and the effort of those student-athletes has not gone unnoticed. K-State has had 10 Academic All-America selections under Bill Snyder, plus eight CFA National Scholar-Athletes. According to Diverse magazine, K-State ranks 10th in the nation among all Division I football programs, and tops in the Big 12, in graduating African-American student-athletes."

Next up, Texas. 
GO CATS!
Make steak out of those Longhorns!
