Class guy, when asked if he was in-they said I wasn’t in, so I wasn’t in…
The guy has done some pretty heroic stuff, showing up and taking questions after that game may be the bravest.
So hard to watch. If we had 95 guys like that, we’d never lose. His parents must be so proud.

When have you EVER, in the HISTORY of sports, seen a guy who was that broken up, sit there and take question after question, while in tears the entire time, and never flinch. H didn't have to do that, but he did because he is so loyal. He's a scheissing standup man like no other you will see in sports, maybe ever.

It says everything that he hurts more for feeling like he let TCU down than he does over a personal loss. There are very very few like him.

He would have had to somehow stop the interior line pull.

Here's a transcript of Max's postgame for those who had volume problems with the You Tube version:

I don’t have a problem with the presser but fail to see how this is much different than a Watt post-game presser in Pasadena that so many on here mocked.

The emotion of the interview and in that locker room drives home the point that this was what was most important, an attainable Big XII trophy and Champion crown to account for the 12-0 regular season. The CFP playoff was secondary.
Duggan is now devastated without a Big XII trophy for TCU—he loves TCU—the season would have been a complete success with it in hand. Now a significant element of disappointment will be attached to the season because of this “championship” game loss.
The only way to clear the fog entirely is too somehow beat the odds against them and win the national championship. Max may be a realist and realizes the odds.
Here is a line—Frogs are 9.5 point dogs versus Big Blue. Win that one and they will likely be dogs again—

One of the most accurate posts ever on this forum. It's probably hyperbole caused by my emotions, but retire that # with LT's.
We almost never lost with only one like that.

I cried right there. I wish I could scream to him that he should NEVER be sorry.

The world has so much wrong in it these days but Max and this team is definitely not one of them. He has been through an awful lot and he still cares more about the program rather than himself. In fact Max epitomizes selflessness.
The Heisman will undoubtedly go to some self centered individual who would never cry about losing a game. That person may have better stats and a higher NFL draft status but they will never match Max’s heart. Hail to our team, winners one and all. Hail to our coaches as well But most of all here is to you Max our leader, our best.

And... There wasn't arrogance going into the game. There wasn't this thought they were stuck playing a lesser opponent. Watt deserved those tears after being humbled.

So you know that Watt was thinking TCU was a lesser opponent and know that Max didn’t think KSU was a lesser opponent? I guess we could say Max deserved those tears because he was humbled but that would be a very dumb thing to say. I’d be a little more cautious attributing fan/media attitudes to players.
