Kansas State will travel to play one of the worst teams in the country. Here's our scouting report and prediction for the game at Oklahoma State.

Kansas State football didn't have two of its key starters in its win against TCU. Will they be back for the rivalry game at Kansas?

LAWRENCE — Kansas State football continues to own the state after emerging with a 42-17 win over in-state rival Kansas to win its 17th-consecutive Sunflower Showdown rivalry game. The Wildcats still haven't lost the rivalry matchup since 2008.

It didn't matter how vulnerable Kansas State appeared to look heading into the game. The Wildcats continue to own the Sunflower Showdown.

With one win in Stillwater since 1999, the Wildcats have a great opportunity to win at Oklahoma State as it continues to be one of the nation's worst.

"I feel like we have better guys, and I feel like we're going to go out there and dominate." Kansas State is ready for Sunflower Showdown with Kansas.

Kansas State started its season in Ireland for a Week 0 game. The impact of the unorthodox schedule is still being felt.

Furthermore, a student-athlete also loses endorsement payments if he quits. Curry Sexton, a former K-State wide receiver who now heads the Wildcat NIL collective, confirmed that traditional NIL payments cease immediately after a student-athlete leaves a team.
