Twelve Victories!

The Kansas State Wildcats put a perfect end to the regular season of the 2007 season with a victory, writing history with an absolutely strong attitude!

Although the Wildcats were optimistic about winning before the last game against the Buffalo, there were variables before the whistle sounded at the end of the game. This is the essence of competitive sports. Only by truly taking the victory into your arms can you declare the record of a complete win in the regular season!

This also means that the 2007 season officially left a strong mark in the history of Kansas State University!

All of this... is really too magical, too wonderful and too shocking, like a perfect dream, full of unreal and illusory feeling.

In the 2005 season, legendary meritorious coach Bill Schneider turned to retire with regret. He seemed to be unable to find his magic again and could not save this team that was deeply trapped in the quagmire.

In the 2006 season, Long Pres led the new team to inject a new atmosphere. However, in the stuttering, he lost to the team's two arch rivals for a century. Even if they brought a little improvement, they were far from being confident for fans and the team.

In the 2007 season, just three days before the season officially started, Pres suddenly entered the hospital with a heart attack. The team without a leader could only be handed over to offensive coordinator Lu Yiqi - a rookie who has only been a professional coach for four years, and at the age of 28, this nightmare seems to have no sign of awakening.

However, even in such a desperate situation, the team no longer has hope inside and outside, but they bottomed out and rebounded, dominating the whole season with absolutely outstanding and absolutely top performance, stepping on one record after another, and then reaching an unprecedented peak, setting the highest peak since the team was founded.

Miracle? Myth? Beautiful dream?

All of this is not enough to describe the madness and enthusiasm of Manhattan! That kind of happiness from the heart is filled with enthusiasm and passion that can deter winter in this small town with only 50,000 permanent residents, and then spread to the entire NCAA alliance-

If someone said before the start of the season, "This year's regular season number one in the United States will be Kansas State University," it is estimated that 99% of the reactions are, "Who?" Outside the Big 12, no one thinks this team is a strong man, and no one will include this team in the championship team; and the remaining one percent of the reaction is a smile - besides jokes, is there any better explanation?

But now, things are happening like this, and even the ending of the Disney movie is not dared to write like this.

There is never a shortage of stories in the competitive sports arena.

Of course, this is still not the end. Next, Kansas State University still needs to participate in the Big 12 Championship, and then there are the expected top bowl games, and there are two championships waiting for them to compete, just like the regular season and playoffs of the professional league, the Wildcats' season has not yet ended, and this season cannot be called "perfect".

However, for Manhattan residents, this is enough - at least enough to make them party all night. This should be the first all-night party in Manhattan since the victory of World War II. No one wants to miss it. Even the elderly recuperation homes that sleep on time at 9 o'clock in the evening have been partying. The bars and restaurants of the whole city have entered celebration mode, with laughter and alcohol floating on the streets and alleys.

This is the real climax of the party when the Wildcats return in triumphant!

The entire NCAA couldn't help but look at it - unexpectedly, Kansas State University actually withstood the pressure! Although the University of Southern California and the University of Oklahoma have successively achieved the feat of winning the regular season in recent years, the time is not far away, but they are both traditional strong teams with traces to follow. Kansas State University simply jumped out of the crack of the stone, and its appearance of emerging from the sky really fell below the ground.

Even ESPN has sent an entire professional team to interview the teams, which is not common.

In the United States, NCAA events are also of the highest attention. Major newspapers, magazines, TV stations and professional websites have set up special teams to report. Many fans even only watch NCAA games, not NFL games.

Because the four major sports leagues in North America are strongly regional, local residents choose to support teams stationed in their urban areas. Even if they are not top professional leagues, even if they are just NCAA's second-level or third-level leagues, or high school teams, local residents will support them wholeheartedly.

That's true in Kansas, with most residents watching only Kansas State and University of Kansas without the Professional League events.

Therefore, the media are equipped with corresponding teams to report NCAA news, especially large media such as ESPN.

But NCAA is just a university league after all. Compared with professional NFL, brand effect, commercial interests, market feedback, etc. are not on the same level. Perhaps, major media will continue to pay attention to NCAA's news and report it as soon as possible, but their influence and dissemination have obvious geographical limitations. However, NFL does not.

Business is business after all.

Now, ESPN specially sent a team to interview Kansas State University, which is indeed rare. The scale and importance of the entire interview are far from comparable to the "small news" in the previous season.

However, the real reason for their interview was not "a complete victory in the regular season", but "a complete victory in the season when the head coach missed the interim head coach's team." Compared with the record of winning, an unexpected legendary experience is what ESPN cares about.

Simply put, this is the highlight and highlight. Although the head coach is Pres and Lu Yiqi is still just an offensive coordinator in name, anyone with a discerning eye knows what happened, and no one will miss the real reason why the Wildcats have been reborn this season.

If there is anything that can make this news more eye-catching, then Lu Yiqi's Asian identity is undoubtedly.

Naturally, Lu Yiqi became the absolute focus.

It seems that everyone is curious about how this young coach who just celebrated his 29th birthday two weeks ago did it? From a topical perspective, no one can beat Lu Yiqi, and even the NFL fierce competition is slightly inferior.

But obviously, ESPN is destined to be disappointed—if not disappointed, at least below expectations.

The entire interview was calm and completed calmly. Lu Yiqi did not take the credit for his own contribution. Even when facing his own spotlight, he remained calm and low-key, and gently and humbly thanked the entire coaching team for their cooperation and the unity of the entire team.

After going over and over, it is just some polite words, and it is not a good thing; in the torrent of information, it is basically a type of forgetting when you turn around - what readers need is the explosive point, the gimmick, the conflict, rather than the boring and boring scenes throughout.
