Kansas State Seeks Redemption as Cincinnati Fights for Bowl Eligibility

The Wildcats aim to end a two-game losing streak while the Bearcats need one more win to secure postseason play.

  • Kansas State (7-3) looks to bounce back after consecutive losses that have derailed their Big 12 Championship hopes.
  • Cincinnati (5-5) must win one of its final two games to achieve bowl eligibility, with Saturday's matchup marking their fourth Big 12 night game on the road this season.
  • Kansas State running back DJ Giddens, the fourth-leading rusher in the Big 12, will be a key factor against a Cincinnati defense that has struggled in recent weeks.
  • Cincinnati quarterback Brendan Sorsby has shown dual-threat capabilities, rushing for 141 yards last week, but the Bearcats need more consistency in their passing game to succeed.
  • Saturday's game marks the first meeting between the two teams in 28 years, with Kansas State favored by 8.5 points in what could be a pivotal matchup for both programs.
