As a KU fan, I can honestly say that I see KSU as a threat in hoops now. Huggins is a very good coach, IMO. He also can recruit better talent than KSU has seen in a lot of years. That being said, the only reason KU fans are talking about this game is because of all the KSU fans telling us that Huggins was God. When you have that stuff shoved in your face for months and months, it tends to get annoying.
And don't kid yourself. KSU beat a very young and inexperienced KU team at Allen Fieldhouse last year. Enjoy it because that won't happen this year. Huggy may be good, but it's gonna take some time to build that program.
I can now respect their program, but I'm not scared of KSU. It will be nice, though, to eventually have a good state rivalry again.
