Kicking the Tires: West Virginia Mountaineers

K-State needed a game to get well after taking a beating from Mississippi State. Last week’s 41-17 win over UTSA largely provided that, as K-State settled on a quarterback, held UTSA to seven non-garbage-time points, and moved up 17 places in the S&P ratings.

But play time is over and a trip to Morgantown awaits. The Wildcats face West Virginia at 2:30 p.m. CDT on Saturday in a game nationally broadcast on ESPN. It will take the best effort we’ve seen from this team this year to avoid another beatdown on national television.
