Sugar Bowl 2022 Preview
Eleventh-ranked Kansas State (10-3) faces a golden opportunity to raise its program’s profile against No. 5 Alabama (10-2) on Saturday.
“Not many people expected Kansas State to be in this position this year,” Wildcats coach Chris Klieman said via The Associated Press. “We have a number of kids that are going to have opportunities to play at the next level, but we haven’t had a kid on our football team that’s had an opportunity to play in the Sugar Bowl, and to play in a New Year’s Six game. That’s really special.”
The Wildcats most recently beat College Football Playoff team TCU in the Big 12 Conference title game. KSU could now beat the most dominant program in the FBS over the past decade.
“Growing up, I always looked at Alabama as the best program in college football history,” Kansas State defensive end Felix Anudike-Uzomah said via The Associated Press. “So, it’s a dream come true and an honor to play them.”
Alabama looks to avoid losing three games for the first time since 2010 after a relatively sub-par regular season. The Crimson Tide lost to Tennessee and LSU in SEC play and missed the conference title game.
“We’ve been really focused. We’ve been doing extra lifts, extra sprints after practice, extra film, just treating this game like it’s our championship,” Alabama offensive lineman Emil Ekiyor said via The Associated Press. “I’m really excited to see how we perform because I know we put a lot into it.”
Alabama quarterback Bryce Young looks to cap a strong season after he threw for 3,007 yards and 27 touchdowns versus five interceptions. Young has plenty of talented receivers to work with, especially Ja’Corey Brooks who has 37 catches for 623 yards and seven touchdowns this season.
Crimson Tide running backs Jahmyr Gibbs and Jase McCellan pose a dangerous 1-2 punch in the backfield. Gibbs averages 6.3 yards per carry and has seven touchdowns. McCellan gains 5.8 yards on average, and he has six touchdowns.
Kansas State quarterback Will Howard looks to have another big performance as he did against TCU. Howard has 1,423 yards and 15 touchdowns versus two interceptions since becoming the starter.
Wildcats running back Deuce Vaughn has been a force in the backfield with 1,425 yards and eight touchdowns this year. Vaughn also has 42 catches for 378 yards and three touchdowns.
The Wildcats also have quality receivers, led by Malik Knowles. He has 47 catches for 719 yards and two touchdowns this year.
