“It would finish the chapter, finish the story,” Klieman said.

Hmm ... that arrogance is certainly more Ron Prince like than Bill Snyder like. Oh yeah, we want the opposite of Snyder.

Was wondering the same thing.

Looks like CK is starting to think the smoke being blown up his arse doesn’t stink. That’s scary.

Don’t get me wrong, we should easily handle the mid-shipmen who are more concerned about their engineering exams than the game. But, assuming a big finish to your story is a recipe for disaster.

You are reading WAY more into that comment than what it was, almost as if you are looking for crap. I'm glad I'm not having people constantly looking into every phrase I say on a daily basis at work... :o

No offense, but I think you need to reread the article. I totally take the comments from CK as the Bowl game is the final chapter in the season for him and the team. Anyone looking more into that appear to be trolling or has a deep seeded resentment towards coach.

No offense taken and you might be right, I do get wrapped up in the ‘hype’. Hopefully this is just the CK hype machine and not reflective of his real attitude.

That article actually said KSU hasn't faced any runner as talented as their QB Perry. WTF? Every hear of Chubba Hubbard, the 2090 yard rusher from Okie State who average 161 yards a game? How about Jalen Hurts from OU - does anyone really think Perry is more talented than Hurts? How about Miss State's RB Hill? He's pretty damn good at the RB spot. Perry is a talented kid, but good grief , they make him out to be a cross between Walter Payton and Drew Brees.

Be disciplined, execute, and do your job, and KSU wins this game by 2 scores or more. I have all the respect in the world for the Navy team, but good grief lets have just a moment of common sense in this.
