Kansas vs Kansas State Preview
Kansas (6-5) and No. 15 Kansas State (8-3) meet in the Sunflower Showdown on Saturday.
“I think the big thing for me since I’ve been here that makes us view this a little differently is it’s the last game of the season and I think that’s probably a good thing,” Wildcats head coach Chris Klieman said via 247 Sports. “I don’t know where that’s going or how that’s determined.”
“No matter what the record is. I think there’s a lot at stake when you have your rivalry game at the end. So that’s what makes this one really unique,” Klieman added. “And without question, when you watch them on film, you see a team that plays faster, plays more confident. Is making plays on both sides of the ball and is a good team.”
For Kansas State, it’s also the Wildcats’ shot at a Big 12 Conference title game appearance. The Wildcats need the win to edge out Texas for the right to meet unbeaten TCU to the Big 12 Conference title on December 3. Texas beat the Wildcats 34-27 on November 5.
Kansas State notably gave TCU a tough game when the two met in October, a 38-28 win by the Horned Frogs. The Wildcats can’t get ahead of themselves though because Kansas has pulled its share of upsets and close class this year.
Kansas beat then-No. 18 Oklahoma State 37-16, and the Jayhawks beat West Virginia and Houston in September. The Jayhawks started the season 5-0 before stumbling through the Big 12 gauntlet to 6-4. A few opponents had to sweat things out with the Jayhawks, which included TCU only beating the Jayhawks 38-31. Despite the struggles of late, Jayhawks head coach Lance Leipold doesn’t want his team compared to last year’s 2-10 squad.
“That wouldn’t be fair if I say that, guys care It’s just a matter, they’ll say days like this doesn’t build character,” Leipold said via 247 Sports. “Of course, what’s to do? It reveals it. It reveals where we’re at. It’s gonna reveal where we move forward. And the exciting thing, the disappointing thing is we have people from bowls and things coming to check out this football team.”
“They didn’t get a chance to really see what this team’s about, but they’ll see how we respond and go, because the time that we have in the play, we’re gonna be better,” Leipold added. “One thing I did say, too, we’ve gotta find a better way to understand and react when we play opponents that kind of have their backs to the wall a little bit in some ways. It’s been numerous times and that’s the great thing about our conference right now.”
K-State, which faces a must-win scenario, hasn’t lost to the Jayhawks since 2008. That includes a 35-10 win last year.
The Wildcats come in free off of convincing wins over Baylor and West Virginia. K-State beat the Bears 31-3 on November 12 followed by a 48-31 win over the Mountaineers.
Wildcats quarterback Will Howard has stepped up in recent weeks with 1,011 yards passing for 11 touchdowns and two interceptions. Howard took over since Adrian Martinez’s leg injury against TCU.
Jayhawks quarterback Jalon Daniels will play in his second game back from injury. He threw for 230 yards and two touchdowns versus an interception against Texas.
“He causes a lot of problems. Because he can throw it exceptionally well,” Klieman said via 247 Sports. “He can run it, he extends plays, does a little bit of everything.”
