Yes, so you don’t sound like a Provo hick

Check the populations of Provo and Manhattan and then tell me who are the hicks.

A lot of irony in this post, considering we are discussing a Kansas school.

No, it just makes you sound more informed.

Most betting sites use KSU for the betting lines and ESPN uses KSU for betting

Someone/thing wanting to be referred to in a specific way is not a good enough

Kind of like the Church wanting to be the Restored Church of Jesus Christ and not the Mormon Church?

2FarGone

Sep 19, 2:46pm

Merely wanting it is not enough of a reason.

StantonMac

I still say "Southern Cal" and "Ohio State" (leaving out "the")... one more thing to correct in my vocabulary!
