Not a wine drinker myself, but I’d certainly find something to toast your inaugural vintage.
Rock Chalk!

Back in the early '80's I saw a young "lady" from Southwest Missouri State make a "Missouri screwdriver"; Float some ice cubes in a tumbler with vodka and then shovel in three tablespoons of Tang!!!
The end is nothing; the road is all.

Tang, huh? As they say in the lingua franca (as I will not utter the Dark Speech of Mordor in this hallowed place), I reckon she was just confirming her space cadet credentials.

On Saturday we were up 10-2.
One outlier was @WVU when we were up 9-8, but we really lost that game in the last 2 minutes.
Granted this is very limited data and probably doesn't tell anywhere near the whole story, but on Saturday it looked like we actually came out swinging, whereas all too often this season it almost looks like we missed the alarm clock telling us it was time for the game.
If you buy into the "win your home games and win half on the road" math to get a ring, we've lost 3 of our 9 road games, leaving us only 1.5 road games left to lose. This year, we might have a little extra leeway since everything is so tight, but K-State their second home loss of the year would be a big step in the right direction.
Fingers crossed, but I think we'll know which squad showed up within the first few minutes, and if we certainly need the version from Saturday to be there if we hope to get out of there with a W.

Hope they turn things around, but this is going to be a struggle.
Give KSU wide open shots and you're in for a long night.
