Kansas State and Washington State prepare for historic first meeting

Kansas State and Washington State are set to meet for the first time in their respective 131-year histories at Bill Snyder Family Stadium. The matchup features two new head coaches: Collin Klein, who led Kansas State to a 71-3 victory over Nicholls in his debut, and Kirby Moore, who recently took over at Washington State following a 24-10 loss to Washington.

Kansas State enters the game with significant offensive momentum, led by quarterback Avery Johnson, who has recorded 51 career touchdowns. Washington State looks to improve its performance following a season opener where quarterback Caden Pinnick demonstrated dual-threat capabilities but struggled with turnovers. The game is scheduled for Saturday, September 12.
