Personally I think fundamentals are the only thing keeping us from being a very solid defense.
It's always missed tackling and not finding the ball in the air that gives up the big plays. We always have players in position.

Yep, 102 passing and 83 rushing.
Kansas St is 74th in total defense, 104 passing and 39 rushing.
For comparison, we are 51 in total defense, 27 passing and 79 rushing.

Y'all have 10x the talent personnel wise that they do, but as was said before they've beaten a lot of team that were much better than them on paper including us. I think y'all win by 10-17, but the only thing that worries me is y'alls run defense. I don't know if it improved from when we played y'all but it definitely seemed like a giant weakness and thats one thing K State does really well on offense. I could see them keeping it closer than it should be via controlling the clock and running the ball well.

I picked ark to win with 20 confidence if that will tell you anything

Spy their QB in all red zone situations

Do you think Arkansas is the better team? Do you think they thrash our defense? Do we blow them out or is it a close game?
I don't know, but I'll be pulling for Kstate.

If you enjoy watching a running QB, you'll like watching the KState Offense. They employ just about every type of running QB you can imagine. Some of their stuff is even single-wingesque, lots of motions and lead blockers.
Their QB is a gamer. Not pretty to watch, but he makes plays.
Arkansas has a large advantage athletically, and I expect Arkansas to win. But Snyder will have a great game plan, it will be methodical, we'll see if it's effective.

Honestly, the game worries me. On paper, I feel like we should beat them. But it's a bowl game and we suck in bowl games.
I'm glad Willy is gone. If Willy were still here I would probably put this game as a loss because we'd play the entire game without spying their QB. At least with Haynes on board there's some hope that he'll attempt to slow down the running QB instead of just ignoring him.
I'd like to see us go to a traditional 4-3 this game and only use Nelson/Rassner on long distance plays. Let Franklin, Hightower, and Williams get all of the snaps so we can better stop the run. We essentially went to this against LSU in an effort to slow down their run game.

I think it's funny the hoglets asked A$M fans, when Mizzou plays K-state every single year and our media market covers k-state as well as kU and Mizzou.
Ah well.
Ah well.

The reason oSu was 11-1 with a 107th ranked defense is that they were something like +27 in TO margin. I think the same is true with K-State. Their defense is not overwhelming, but they don't give up big plays and are great at creating turnovers.

We have a long history with A&M and while we may not like them very much we do still value their opinion. Oh, and you guys are a bunch of dirty yankees so your opinion does not matter in the south...

You guys lost 38-0 to KSU. I dont think you could give an objective analysis.
