Kansas State faces its second straight top ten matchup this week, so we turned to Pokes Report executive editor Zach Lancaster to learn more about why the Cowboys have been so good this season. Naturally, it starts with their offense, specifically fourth-year starter Spencer Sanders. He’s thrown for more than 2,000 yards already and has some talented receivers in Bryson Green and Brennan Presley.
The status of safety Jason Taylor Jr. could go a long ways in determining how well OSU can defend Kansas State’s powerful rushing attack, whether it features Adrian Martinez or Will Howard at quarterback.
