Kansas State Wildcats Host No. 22 Houston Cougars in Week 6 Showdown
The Kansas State Wildcats are set to host the No. 22 Houston Cougars in a Big 12 college football matchup on Saturday. This game follows Kansas State's recent defeat against Cincinnati, where they lost 31-26, marking their first loss of the season.
Despite the setback, Kansas State has been strong offensively, averaging 40.5 points per game while allowing only 15.3. The Wildcats' ground game is led by senior quarterback Avery Johnson, who has accumulated 291 rushing yards and thrown for 910 yards with seven touchdowns.
On the other hand, Houston is coming off a comeback victory against UCF, where they scored 27 unanswered points after trailing 17-0. Quarterback Conner Weigman was instrumental in that game, scoring all three of the Cougars' touchdowns on the ground. As they prepare to face Kansas State, Houston's rushing attack, which ranks sixth in the Big 12, poses a significant challenge for the Wildcats' defense.
