The Kansas State Wildcats haven't won a game against the Oklahoma State Cowboys since Oct. 13 of 2018, but they'll be looking to end the drought on Saturday. K-State and Oklahoma State will face off in a Big 12 battle at 3:30 p.m. ET at Bill Snyder Family Stadium. The Wildcats are out to stop a three-game streak of losses at home.
K-State came up short against the TCU Horned Frogs last week, falling 38-28. Despite the defeat, K-State had strong showings from QB Will Howard, who passed for two TDs and 225 yards on 20 attempts in addition to rushing for one TD and 31 yards, and RB Deuce Vaughn, who punched in one rushing touchdown.
Meanwhile, the Texas Longhorns typically have all the answers at home, but last week Oklahoma State proved too difficult a challenge. The Cowboys came out on top against the Longhorns by a score of 41-34. Oklahoma State's victory was all the more impressive since Texas was averaging only 18.29 points allowed on the season. It was another big night for Oklahoma State's QB Spencer Sanders, who passed for two TDs and 391 yards on 58 attempts in addition to picking up 43 yards on the ground.
This next matchup is expected to be close, with K-State going off at just a 1.5-point favorite. Those burned by picking them against the spread last week might want to keep in mind that the team has not yet dropped back-to-back games against the spread this season.
The Wildcats are now 5-2 while Oklahoma State sits at 6-1. The Cowboys are 4-1 after wins this year, and K-State is 1-0 after losses.
