Kansas State might have a NEW RB1. Of everything we saw in the Wildcats' 71-3 win over Nicholls, Rodney Fields Jr. might have been the biggest surprise. Because he didn't simply play well. He STARTED. Fields received 14 carries and turned them into 101 yards and a touchdown, showing the vision, decisiveness and explosiveness that apparently stood out to Collin Klein once Kansas State started going live during camp. Now we have a serious question. Is Rodney Fields becoming Kansas State's No. 1 running back? Joe Jackson isn't going anywhere. Jay Harris is still going to have a role. And after watching all three backs contribute against Nicholls, Kansas State might have something even better than one clear starter. This could legitimately become a three-headed monster. We break down the entire Kansas State offense after Collin Klein's first win, including an extremely encouraging performance from Avery Johnson. Johnson completed 15 of 21 passes for 199 yards and three touchdowns while adding another score on the ground. But the numbers weren't even the most impressive part. He looked comfortable. He looked confident. And in his first game reunited with Collin Klein, Avery looked like a quarterback completely in control of the offense. We also discuss Kansas State's offensive line after an encouraging first performance from a group that entered the season with plenty of questions. Ryan Howard stepped into the opening at left tackle. Charlie Adams impressed. And Avery Johnson was consistently given time to operate. Yes. It was Nicholls. Washington State is going to tell us significantly more about this team. But Kansas State did exactly what it was supposed to do in Week 1. Plus, we talk about everything that felt DIFFERENT inside Bill Snyder Family Stadium. The Cat Train is back. Willie's opponent skits are back. Sandstorm returned in the third quarter. The Wildcats locked arms. And Willie somehow survived 394 push-ups after Kansas State scored 71 points. The “new old school” era under Collin Klein is officially underway. #KansasState #KState #KStateFootball #CollinKlein #AveryJohnson #Big12 #CollegeFootball Photo Credit: Evert Nelson IMAGN Go AD Free and More with the Everydayer's Club!

Is Special Teams U officially BACK at Kansas State? John Grove called his shot. All offseason, he told us Kansas State was going to score a special-teams touchdown. It took ONE GAME. Brandon White took a punt to the house against Nicholls, showing off the ridiculous speed that made him one of the most intriguing additions to this Kansas State roster. And maybe this was about more than one touchdown. Kansas State has an incredible history of winning games with special teams. Since 1999, K-State has 140 non-offensive touchdowns. Since 2005, Kansas State has 64 kickoff and punt-return touchdowns — far ahead of anyone else in college football. That was a massive piece of the Bill Snyder identity. Now, in the first game of the Collin Klein era and this push toward the “new old school,” Kansas State immediately gets another one. Coincidence? Maybe. But it sure felt like Kansas State football. And Brandon White could become a serious weapon. We also dive into a Kansas State defense that gave us plenty to be excited about. Darian Whitaker Jr. looked completely at home in his new role along the defensive line. Logan Bartley impressed. Gabe Powers gave us more confidence in the linebacker room. JoJo Scott showed some serious potential in the secondary. And Wendell Gregory gave us our first look at what he could become in this defense. Yes, we have to keep saying it. This was Nicholls. Washington State will be a much bigger test. Tulane will be a bigger test. Eventually, Big 12 play will tell us what this Kansas State team really is. But this is exactly what you're supposed to do against an opponent like Nicholls. Dominate. Get younger players on the field. Build confidence. And start establishing what you want Kansas State football to look like under Collin Klein. So far? The “new old school” is looking pretty damn fun. #KansasState #KState #KStateFootball #CollinKlein #Big12 #CollegeFootball Photo Credit: Scott Sewell IMAGN Go AD Free and More with the Everydayer's Club!

The Collin Klein era at Kansas State is officially underway. Yeah... That'll work. Kansas State absolutely demolished Nicholls 71-3 in Klein's first game as head coach, giving the Wildcats their highest-scoring performance since putting 76 on Ball State in 2000. And while Nicholls certainly isn't going to be the toughest opponent Kansas State sees this season, there was a LOT to like about this debut. Start with Avery Johnson. 15-of-21. 199 passing yards. Three passing touchdowns. Another touchdown on the ground. And for everyone who spent the offseason questioning Johnson's accuracy? How does a 71% completion percentage sound for Game 1? Then there's the running game. Kansas State finished with more than 300 rushing yards and SIX different players scored rushing touchdowns. But maybe the biggest surprise was Rodney Fields Jr. Fields got the start and finished with 100 rushing yards on 14 carries. Joe Jackson scored. Jay Harris contributed. Ontario Elston broke a 46-yard run. Kansas State suddenly might have a very interesting problem in that running back room. Then there's the offensive line. After all the questions surrounding that group entering the season, Kansas State didn't allow a single sack. Again, it's Nicholls. Keep everything in perspective. But this is exactly what you're SUPPOSED to do against an overmatched opponent. Dominate. Get your starters out. Give younger players meaningful snaps. Build some confidence. And move on. Even special teams got involved, with Brandon White taking a punt 65 yards to the house. Kansas State wasn't perfect. And we'll learn significantly more against Washington State, Tulane and eventually Cincinnati. But after some of the ugly nonconference performances we've watched from this program recently, there was no drama this time. Collin Klein's first win? Check. Avery Johnson looking comfortable? Check. Offensive line protecting the quarterback? Check. Young players getting valuable reps? Check. 71-3? Yeah. That's one hell of a way to start a new era. #KansasState #KState #KStateFootball #CollinKlein #AveryJohnson #Big12 #CollegeFootball Photo Credit: Evert Nelson IMAGN Go AD Free and More with the Everydayer's Club!

Kansas State football is BACK. In less than 24 hours, Collin Klein will lead the Wildcats onto the field at Bill Snyder Family Stadium for the first time as Kansas State's head coach. And against Nicholls, the question isn't really whether Kansas State should win. They absolutely should. The question is what we LEARN while watching them do it. What does a Collin Klein-coached team look like? How different does the offense feel? And most importantly: Are we finally going to see Avery Johnson UNLEASHED? John Grove from GoPowerCat joins the show as we break down everything we're watching in Klein's debut. Nicholls already has a game under its belt after beating Mississippi Valley State 44-10. Quarterback Ian Rodriguez threw for 264 yards and three touchdowns, and Nicholls showed enough explosiveness through the air to give Kansas State's new-look secondary something to think about. But Kansas State should have a significant talent advantage. Now we need to see it. Can the Wildcats generate pressure? Can the secondary eliminate explosive plays? Can Avery Johnson protect the football? And what does Sean Gleeson's offense look like with Johnson, Joe Jackson and a group of receivers looking to establish themselves? Then we're making our FINAL predictions. John has Kansas State winning 41-10. I've got the Wildcats winning 34-10. That means we're BOTH taking Nicholls +41.5 and the under at 54.5. And we're getting bold. I've got Joe Jackson rushing for more than 150 yards. John goes even further: Jerron Tibbs finishes with more than 150 receiving yards AND two touchdowns. The offseason is officially over. The Collin Klein era begins NOW. #KansasState #KState #KStateFootball #CollinKlein #AveryJohnson #Big12 #CollegeFootball Photo Credit: Evert Nelson Go AD Free and More with the Everydayer's Club!

One more day. That's all that's left before Kansas State football officially begins the Collin Klein era. So for the FINAL time this offseason, we're doing what we've spent months doing: Speculating. John Grove from GoPowerCat joins the show as we go game-by-game through Kansas State's entire 2026 schedule and make our final predictions. And I'm starting to feel pretty good about what Year 1 could look like. Nicholls? Win. Washington State? Win. Tulane? Win. I even think Kansas State can go on the road and beat Cincinnati to begin Big 12 play and start the Collin Klein era 4-0. John isn't quite as confident. Then things get REALLY interesting. Houston might be the most important game on Kansas State's entire schedule. The Sunflower Showdown returns to Manhattan. There's a difficult trip to Arizona State. Colorado awaits on Halloween. And the final month brings Oklahoma State, TCU, Arizona and potentially the final Farmageddon against Iowa State. There are plenty of games that could swing this season dramatically in either direction. But when we finally add everything up? John has Kansas State finishing 8-4. I've got the Wildcats going 9-3. And I feel extremely confident about two games in particular: Collin Klein beats Kansas AND Iowa State in his first season. Would 9-3 be enough to put Kansas State into the Big 12 Championship conversation? Could 8-4 still represent a successful first season under Klein? And which games have the biggest chance to completely change our predictions? One final time before we actually get answers, let's predict the entire Kansas State football season. Drop YOUR final record prediction in the comments. #KansasState #KState #KStateFootball #CollinKlein #Big12 #CollegeFootball Photo Credit: Evert Nelson IMAGN Go AD Free and More with the Everydayer's Club!

Big 12 teams face early-season pressure as Baylor preps for a high-stakes showdown against Auburn in the Aflac Kickoff. Can DJ Lagway ignite the Bears’ offense and save Dave Aranda’s job, or will Auburn’s transfer-heavy roster under Alex Golesh hold the upper hand? The group debates talent disparities, the impact of new coaching staffs, and whether last year’s stats offer any real insight for fans expecting a breakout performance. The conversation focused on Oklahoma State’s revamped lineup, raising questions about defensive improvement and the upside of bringing in nearly an entire staff from North Texas. UCF’s Alonzo Barnett emerges as a sleeper to watch, while the hosts debate whether parity in the Big 12 will help or hurt the conference’s playoff hopes. Plus, bold predictions for BYU, Kansas State, and Arizona State set the stage for a wild opening weekend. Which teams are poised for a quick rise—and which might be overrated?

Are people finally starting to BUY STOCK in Kansas State? Because after an offseason filled with questions surrounding Collin Klein's first season back in Manhattan, the conversation around the Wildcats might finally be starting to change. Locked On Big 12 recently admitted Kansas State may have been ranked too low entering the 2026 season, pointing specifically to some of the top-end talent on this roster. And they're right about one thing. Kansas State has some legitimate dudes. Wendell Gregory has the talent to potentially become the Big 12 Defensive Player of the Year. Joe Jackson broke Darren Sproles' Kansas State freshman rushing record last season. Garrett Oakley has already shown he can be one of the better tight ends in college football. And then there's Avery Johnson. I've been more cautious about Kansas State this offseason than I was a year ago. But there's one thing I feel VERY confident about. Avery Johnson is going to have the best season of his college career. Putting him back together with Collin Klein could completely change what this Kansas State offense looks like. And apparently people around the Big 12 are starting to see the potential too. Here's the weird part. While the perception surrounding Kansas State might be improving, its Big 12 championship odds have actually moved in the opposite direction. K-State went from fourth in the conference at +1200 to fifth at +1700 in the odds we discussed on today's show. So is THAT the opportunity? Is everybody still sleeping on Kansas State? Locked On UCF host Mike G joins Locked On Kansas State to discuss why people are starting to change their minds about the Wildcats, whether it's officially time to buy K-State stock and just how wide open the Big 12 could become in 2026. Maybe I've been too low on Kansas State too. Now it's time for the Wildcats to prove everybody right. #KansasState #KStateFootball #KState #AveryJohnson #CollinKlein #Big12 #CollegeFootball Photo Credit: Matt Kartozian IMAGN Go AD Free and More with the Everydayer's Club!

Kansas State's first defensive depth chart is here. And there are a LOT more surprises than I expected. Jon Grove of GoPowercat joins Locked On Kansas State to break down Collin Klein's first defensive depth chart before the Wildcats open the season against Nicholls. It starts up front. Wendell Gregory and Jordan Allen are expected to start on the edge, but there are some notable names missing from the two-deep — including Elijah Hill. Instead, Darian Whitaker Jr. and Jayden Bryant have earned early opportunities. Then there's the linebacker room. Mekhi Mason has officially earned a starting job after receiving significant praise throughout the offseason. Gabe Powers will join him after emerging as both a starter and team captain. But Rex Van Wyhe isn't currently listed as a starter despite representing Kansas State at Big 12 Media Days. The biggest surprises might be in the secondary. Sophomore JoJo Scott won the starting nickel job. Logan Bartley is listed ahead of Jasson Prevard at strong safety, while young defensive backs Garrick Dixon and Nick McKellen have already cracked the two-deep. So what does all of this mean? Are Kansas State's young defenders simply developing faster than expected? Are injuries playing a role? Or has Collin Klein created a legitimate competition where previous experience doesn't guarantee anyone a starting job? Nicholls should give Kansas State an opportunity to start finding those answers. Because after Week 1, the competition gets considerably more difficult. #KansasState #KState #KStateFootball #Big12 #CollegeFootball #CollinKlein Photo Credit: Evert Nelson IMAGN Go AD Free and More with the Everydayer's Club!

Kansas State has a major question to answer before this season gets much more difficult. Can this offensive line hold up? Jon Grove of GoPowercat joins Locked On Kansas State as we break down Collin Klein's first depth chart and everything we learned about the Wildcats offense heading into Week 1 against Nicholls. And it starts at left tackle. Ryan Howard is expected to get the first opportunity after injuries completely changed what Kansas State thought its offensive line would look like entering the season. The experience level is concerning. Howard enters with zero college snaps. Keaton Jones has eight. Dylan Villarouel has 43. Gus Hawkins has 126, while Charlie Adams is currently the most experienced member of that projected starting five. That's a LOT of development that needs to happen quickly. The good news? Nicholls gives Kansas State an opportunity to start finding answers before the competition gets considerably more difficult. We also break down the rest of K-State's first offensive depth chart. Joe Jackson, Jay Harris and Rodney Fields are all listed as options at running back. Garrett Oakley, Will Anciaux and Linkon Cure give Kansas State multiple possibilities at tight end. And the wide receiver rotation finally gives us a better idea of who Avery Johnson will be throwing to this season. But there's one question that matters more than everything else against Nicholls. Kansas State needs to leave Week 1 feeling considerably better about its offensive line. Because Washington State is coming next. And unlike last season, K-State can't afford to spend September figuring everything out. #KansasState #KState #KStateFootball #Big12 #CollegeFootball #AveryJohnson Photo Credit: Evert Nelson - IMAGN Go AD Free and More with the Everydayer's Club!

Kansas State Wildcats tumble to 87th in Fox Sports preseason rankings—an eyebrow-raising drop from last year’s top 25. Can Collin Klein’s squad silence critics and outperform bold predictions of a 4-8 finish? Christian Rauh and John Grove break down the Wildcats’ national perception, question the rationale behind RJ Young’s ranking, and unpack media skepticism around offensive injuries and a first-year head coach. Key topics include Kansas State’s depth chart concerns, especially at left tackle, the offensive line’s "by committee" approach, and how those uncertainties might impact quarterback Avery Johnson’s usage this season. The hosts also spotlight Week 0 matchups, Nichols’ fast start, and which Group of Six and Power Five clashes could shape early college football playoff talks. Are the Wildcats being underestimated, or are real challenges looming? Photo Credit: Rob Gray IMAGN Go AD Free and More with the Everydayer's Club!

Big 12 football could be completely wide open in 2026, but Kansas State may have a major concern as Week 1 approaches. Texas Tech entered the offseason as the team to beat, but questions at quarterback have opened the door for BYU, Kansas State and the rest of a conference where seemingly anyone can beat anyone. Both Mike Giddens and I currently lean toward BYU as the Big 12 favorite over Texas Tech. But how confident should Kansas State fans be right now? Avery Johnson is back. Collin Klein is taking over. Brandon White continues generating buzz. There are plenty of reasons to believe in the Wildcats. The concern is the offensive line. There are rumblings of potentially significant injuries up front, and while nothing had been confirmed at the time of recording, it's enough to change how I'm looking at Kansas State entering the season. If the Wildcats can't consistently protect Avery Johnson, all those weapons suddenly become a lot less important. In fact, with Kansas State's win total sitting at 8.5, I'm currently leaning UNDER. Plus, is the Big 12 still an offensive conference? Is Texas Tech really the team that should carry the conference? And which teams could create chaos in one of college football's most unpredictable leagues? The Big 12 is wide open. Now Kansas State needs to make sure it doesn't let an opportunity slip away. #KansasState #KStateFootball #Big12 #Big12Football #AveryJohnson #CollegeFootball Photo Credit: Evert Nelson IMAGN Go AD Free and More with the Everydayer's Club!

Kansas State Wildcats linebackers face a pivotal season as Collin Klein signals a changing of the guard by highlighting Gabe Powers as the top name to watch.

Arizona State emerge as Big 12 wild cards, but does their quarterback uncertainty threaten their rise? Christian Rauh and Jon Grove break down Kenny Dillingham’s squad, spotlighting a fierce QB battle between Cutter Boley and Mikey Keene, along with key offensive departures that could impact the Sun Devils’ competitiveness. The crew explores Omari Miller and Reed Harris bolstering the receiving corps and how Arizona State’s recruiting and revamped culture may raise their program’s floor. On the defensive side, transfer linebacker Owen Long and a stout front promise to challenge even run-heavy teams like Kansas State. The episode scrutinizes Arizona State’s grueling 2024 schedule—highlighted by a London showdown versus Kansas—and asks whether road games and a brutal bye-less stretch could push the Sun Devils to a 7-5 or even 5-7 finish. Can Arizona State spoil Kansas State’s Big 12 run, or will depth and experience win out in Tempe? Photo Credit: Go AD Free and More with the Everydayer's Club!

Will the Big 12 survive this arms race, or will backdoor deals and financial inequity push some teams to the brink?

Kansas State Wildcats’ defense could see a seismic shift as standout transfer Wendell Gregory arrives in Manhattan. Christian Rauh spotlights Gregory’s explosive edge-rushing ability, top-50 transfer status, and how his presence might lift the Wildcats back into Big 12 contention. Can Kansas State’s retooled defensive front deliver with new faces like Travis Bates and Jordan Allen also in the mix? Early win-loss predictions raise the stakes for first-year head coach Collin Klein as the Wildcats navigate a favorable schedule missing Texas Tech, Utah, and BYU. Key non-conference tests against Washington State and Tulane, plus pivotal matchups with Houston and Arizona State, fuel debate over whether Kansas State can surpass FanDuel’s 8.5-win total. Strategic insights weigh the impact of offseason transfers, continuity concerns, and which games could define the Wildcats’ chances of becoming surprise conference title contenders.

Kansas State Wildcats signal Zashon Rich as a defensive cornerstone for 2026, but is the secondary ready to thrive under coach Jordan Peterson’s new regime? Christian Rauh and Jon Grove break down why Rich’s veteran leadership, snap count dominance, and overlooked national profile make him as pivotal as quarterback Avery Johnson and running back Joe Jackson to the Wildcats’ postseason ambitions. The conversation spotlights rising stars like Donovan McIntosh and transfers such as Caleb Patterson and Adrian Maddox, while questioning if the revamped cornerback and safety rotations can cover gaps in proven depth. Key topics include the impact of the Big 12’s third-easiest schedule, the significance of player development during fall camp, and which under-the-radar talents might become future NFL prospects. Will Kansas State’s secondary silence critics and power a championship run, or will questions about depth and experience linger deep into the season? Photo Credit: Mark J.

Kansas State Wildcats eye a breakout season as analysts peg their schedule among the easiest in college football. Can Collin Klein, in his first year as head coach, and quarterback Avery Johnson capitalize on this favorable path and propel K-State to the top of the Big 12? Christian Rauh and Jon Grove discuss the pivotal matchup against Houston, the impact of Big 12 and ACC schedule disparities, and the national perception shaping Kansas State’s playoff hopes. The conversation spotlights eight Wildcats named to the Shriners Children's East-West Bowl watch list, with newcomers like Ja'Son Prevard, Makai Mason, and Adrian Maddox drawing praise for boosting the defense. The hosts break down Avery Johnson’s PFF quarterback ranking, debate coaching influences on the Wildcats’ 6-6 campaign, and assess how transfers and returning stars could transform Kansas State’s lineup. Can the Wildcats silence doubters and seize their Arlington dreams? Photo Credit: Peter Aiken - IMAGN Go AD Free and More with the Everydayer's Club!
