At #KState: Chris Kleiman says there's "another position" where they are really close to the threshold of not being able to play. Mentions last week they were 1 player at 1 position away from having to cancel, now it's another position.

Oklahoma Football Presser Notes: OU prepares for Big 12 play

There weren’t many questions about Kansas State, but that’s the nature of football pressers during a pandemic.

"This is obviously a tricky situation that will be closely monitored by the day as kickoff approaches. If either Kansas State or Oklahoma were to fall below the threshold before then, this game will likely be postponed or canceled."

Ill be sad if I cant see OU beat the everloving crap out of KSU

And I thought Kansas was one state that was supposed to be good at slowing the spread of COVID.

It generally has been, but all bets are off when it comes to college campuses

 

[Cyched]

I heard our game could be moved to the 11:00 Fox slot if this is canceled?

Farmageddon myopia.

K-State loses to a Sun Belt team at home in front of actual fans, then slow plays a cancellation of a game vs a top 3 team and blames it on covid. Can't say I blame them. I would want ISU to do the same in their shoes.

No kidding.

I think KSU can cover the 28, but they’re gonna get pounded regardless.

How do you keep having so many new cases?!

 

[CycloneErik]

How do you keep having so many new cases?!

I'm not judging. We probably do, too, and found a way to report it differently or just not report it.

 

[Beyerball]

How do you keep having so many new cases?!

exactly...especially when big 12 teams are all doing 3x week testing...soon to be daily testing.

 

[cycloneML]

Coach K’s ploy to avoid OU?

 

[CloneinWDSM]

Be better

 

[clonedude]

This season is a joke. Basically meaningless.

Sit back and just enjoy watching the games you can, but the W’s and L’s are going to mean nothing this year.

I'm guessing most of K-State's issues involve contract tracing not positive tests. OU's Lincoln Riley said the same thing about his program. It's no fun watching teams with depleted rosters try to complete.

Anyone watching Navy v. BYU knows that squads that have not practiced adequately are going to get leveled. Add on a depleted roster and it's just a bad watch.

It's informative that K-State is busing to Norman, 310 miles, 5 hours. That suggests how perilous the budget these days given that they always flew there in the past.

Or...they want to avoid airlines right now because of Covid. I know I wouldn't fly anywhere right now.

I think for football they usually charter, so it would only be players and staff on the plane.
