Seriously, if you had told me that the Cats would hold Auburn to 20 points and under 200 rushing yards I would have told you we would win that game. The fact that we didn't win while accomplishing those feats is embarrassing.

I'll say this though. That defense showed flashes of the Lynch Mob, yesterday. K-State is building defenses like we had in the late 90s - early 2000s. That is evident. A lot of young talent on that side of the field.

I believe K-State will be solid this year, but I think next 2 years (outside of missing Waters, some O-line, and Lockett, which is discussion for another day) will be even better.

I commented to that affect in one of the two threads during the game last night. The secondary is still lacking quite a bit (if it wasn't for Auburn having several miscues of their own in the passing game we would have ended up getting blown out). But over all what I witnessed from the D last night gave me hope for the future on that side of the ball.
