Young Cougars test K-State

COUGARS

Of course, the day Dave makes the drive it’s 50 degrees and there’s no snow. When I head down this week, it will probably be -20 and the wind will be howling. But I digress. Back to the game. The young Cougars played right with the Wildcats for about 30 minutes before fading down the stretch (sound familiar?). You can read Dave’s story here.

The Bears’ win lifted the Pac-10’s bowl record to 2-0. Maybe this crappy conference is better than people thought. And here’s a link to Stanford’s dismantling of Texas Tech last night. We’ll be back later. Till then …
