Here’s some Kansas City Star coverage that delivers the K-State point of view after the game.

The lopsided score rates among the worst in K-State history. The Wildcats had not allowed this many points since 1971 when Oklahoma pounded them 75-28.

“Well, that was about as thorough of a defeat as we’ve had in our program and personally,” K-State coach Ron Prince said. “These stay with you for a long time. When you’re old and gray, you remember these.”

Nebraska never let up in this game, not until the very end where we took the knee with a minute left on the clock.

Nebraska State Paper shares the Husker point of view.

“It was nothing against K-State or anything like that,” Swift said. “We just wanted to let loose and score as many points as we could. That’s just the type of game it was, especially coming off of five losses. I don’t think it’s anything against them. They might think it was. I’m sure they’re not very happy about it. I just think it’s something we wanted to do.”

Said Lucky: “Having fun, that’s what we’re doing. Letting loose.”

Samuel McKewon of the State Paper ends his piece with this reflection on the state of affairs in Lincoln.

As the game ended, Callahan quickly met Prince at midfield. Little was exchanged other than a handshake. Callahan quickly exited the field, while his team celebrated. He was completely alone and yet entirely surrounded by television camera operators who followed his every step.

What was he thinking, considering it was likely the last he’d ever coach at Memorial Stadium?

“I thought about a lot of things,” Callahan said. “I’ll keep that private.”

All in all today’s game was like an action flick with strong dramatic elements and borrowed themes from the Western genre.
