Nice 33-28 win for a young Kansas State team over Texas A&M in the Texas Bowl.

If you missed Wednesday night's game, then you also missed the Wildcats' coach-dousing celebration.

But bear this in mind: K-State coach Bill Snyder is 77. And while he clearly can still coach, it appears his players understand Gatorade baths aren't good for 77-year-old tickers.

Nice audible by the Wildcats.

The kids went to confetti out of deference to their elderly elders.

Or maybe the staff just coached up the Wildcats, given Snyder's evasive maneuvers the last time bowl-victorious K-State players went after him with the real deal liquid.
