EG3 #10: Going back early this past semester in September before this epic season by the K-State football team; the semester prior I called my first basketball and baseball games of my radio career and I was really exciting and very anxious to get started with the season. Even though the opponent in Missouri State coming into Manhattan the unknown of myself and this Wildcat team led by Collin Klein which we all knew at least me and K-State country knew the potential of this team coming off a Cotton Bowl lost a season ago to Arkansas, this had a lot players return and ready to take to the next level. At least in the 1st half of the opening game of the season, Missouri State kept things really close and the Cats playing to their level making the game interesting with field goal after field goal. If I remember correctly the game was all tied up going into break and the guys in the booth with that evening were saying up here we close again...meaning that the Wildcats nearing the opening last year to a not so good opponent. But the 2nd half of this game though was totally different with the Cats exploding with big play, after big play. Special Teams was huge with Tramanie Thompson and Tyler Lockett making plays. My excitment in calling this game turned in to just trying to finished at the same time losing my voice after the Jon Hubert run. K-State turned on the jets to defeat Missouri State on opening night. I still think that was a lot of fun...a lot of fun to do. You got to make the most of your oppurtunities and I'm blessed with just a chance to do the game which that would my first out of two games of the season. Ashton Glacier did prove himself the QB of the Missouri State team would came into the kinda trash talking on twitter but that would not be enough as the Wildcats prove they were obviously the better team. Shoutout to Mark Kern color commentary guy for that game we were all laughing and enjoying ourselves.
