K-State Nation. We got another game coming up tomorrow. We all listen, this will be game day, but game two right around the corner. We'll talk about it next. K-State Nation another episode right here on the program podcast. Start right now, any Greer hosts this podcast. All things K-State sports. Either it was possible. I think I didn't sure it's hecked anything I was gonna record. We were here I am. Here in this late set, I'm not least Saturday. That's tomorrow. Late Friday afternoon. September 11th, 2026. You ready for some of this podcast? Again, there's some tuning in the latest edition of this podcast. It is going to be the official preview show Washington State coming in the Manhattan to tickle on your wild cats tomorrow morning. We all listen to this because this is gonna go out first day in the morning. I'm whenever I come back home. This is I'll get this set up for tomorrow early tomorrow
more so we all wake up whatever is the first date that pops up on the list here as well. TNT will have this game. Washington State, these will be the first time. And I believe this is gonna be another matchup with these guys, but for just focusing, that's what I've been just telling myself. This focus on right now. Washington State is gonna be the first meet ever between these two schools. TNT will have this game. That's actually, hold on a second. Yeah, that's actually a good thing. Cause yeah, so there's that TNT JB Long, Mike Goliath, Jr. and Jerry Greenberg will have his call in the course. K State Radio, your Learfield folks, White, Stan, Matt, Delby, on the call, as well there as well. So there's that, but yeah, man, you can ask for a tremendous start to the calling client era last week. And now,
you got, well, what's the start with the new, with the newbies? Before I want to talk more about Washington State, says that I have had a chance to do that. Yeah, but, uh, treasure class, right? Josh Manings, Adrian Matt, Adrian Matt, I hear you didn't play very much last week. Jairis, Scott and Anzone, McCoy Mason got banged up last week. Hopefully he'd be ready for playing this game. Tyler Johnson, who's been thrust in action, Caleb Patterson, Devon Morris, there as well. So you got that going on as well. And then I made a call, yeah, yeah, go back to, go back to last week. Now I made a call on tape, it's on tape. Now, called it, brain white, was going to score, was going to score in your zone. You need to do just that. And somebody says, told me that you should put it. So put a little, a little casual in that. Maybe I should have, maybe I should have did that. There as well. But anyways, yeah, everybody's made this point
about even me in a reaction show after that blowout, when I'm nickels last week that, you know, hey 71 points, that's gonna automatically, well, I didn't go that far as far as other people did. But we're gonna go, we're gonna go be ranked number one, number two nation. We got a, a man, we got a, a, a, con, con, con, con, con, con, it's taking this three points, bill, sneyer, three point, oh, approach. We got a flushing down, it's in the air, washing the state. And all I know is, washing the state, from what people have said on other KSA pockets, has a good D line there as well. Of note here, Avery Johnson is only one of three quarterbacks in KSA history, 5,000 yards, any air, 1,000 on the ground, and that's actually 1,000 for, for in one yards on the ground, 5,775 through the air, FedEx through the air, FedEx on the ground, you know what I'm talking about there as well. So there's that, the defense,
I mean, there was it, it must be said about them, but the defense, now, washing the state is a different task in this ballgame, but nickels didn't do jack squat. 122, hold on, 120, just a buck 22 of off of the yards. And this one there as well. Yes, it's on Rich. He needs to be big in the secondary there as well. And we as talked about window Gregory, all summer long, really, since he got the case, they, I've been saying this name pretty much, majority of the time, he came up big there, McKay Mason, the second and the second level, and then of course, on Rich back there as well. And I want to, who I want to give another shout to. Yo, yes, the forgotten, the forgotten son Logan Bartley, I got to give him his lures on his pocket. He continues to produce in that secondary back there. He, and this is the guy, I left him off the player,
Pee Pee Pee List, defensively. See, this is what I was saying. We were talking, and Logan Bartley's been on, is working for a year and a change now. And he continues to go out there and though, and does his thing out there, right? So, there's that. So, so I'm gonna actually switch over here. They got, let me see here, let me see real quick. I'm gonna switch over to Washington State, because I want to get them in this mix for a bit, Washington State coming out of the pack 12, and they lost their opening game. They lost their over the game. Let me see here, Kirby Moore first year. Oh, yeah, actually, yeah, they had that rivalry. So I'm gonna flip the script a little bit. So Washington State, and on the backside, we'll look at the big 12. Well, now it's getting a little Washington State. I have my key to the game here in a few moments. This is the Pro Watcher Package official preview, Washington State Fort Riley Day. You can say Fort Riley Morning. This thing gets kicked off at 11,
at a Greer here in KC, and Missouri here. This could line up, this could, this could line up to be a big weekend, for you're truly, I know, I'm thinking, I'll go, things will come up. We're gonna deal with it. We're gonna deal it as it approaches. That's the way it is. We're just gonna have to, I don't know, but I do know, there's gonna be some guy getting the ball. Well, Washington State, Kirby Moore, Kirby Moore, at the helm for the Cougars, and they lost last week to their rival, the Apple Cup already. I think I said that last week on one of the episodes, either was this podcast or the other podcast, the EG3 pod. You already played a rivalry already? And I'm saying that, can you Missouri tonight? I totally forgot about that game. My months, worry about other things right now, but yeah, man, so we'll have, obviously we'll recap that.
Or not necessarily, we'll score that on a reaction edition of the podcast, but right now we're talking about, how you saw that? Washington State lost by two touchdowns. 24 to 10 in that game. And let me now flip over to the to that game, or actually to recap of that game, hold up a second here. Well, I flipped the script. Oh boy, let me see. Hey, what we're looking at here for week two. Yeah, so tonight, as I'm saying, of course, this preview, 23 ranked Missouri, the old foes, to get on KU for that one. Yeah, so Washington State goes to Manhattan. So let me see here. Yeah, I think for me, Ralph the bat, I think Ralph the bat to me, and I said this in the last couple episodes of show, can you provide that energy, KK State? I'm talking about, can you provide that energy? Yeah, 11 to go. This is what I'm worried about. Again, the two, yes, Eddie, Eddie's going right back to the comfort well.
I'm afraid with a 230 matchup. 11, you're not caffeinated by then. I caffeinated by 11. You're not ready to play. The other team is 10, you're in trouble. And again, it's as costable and giving Saturday, you can get beat. And I wanna see the same energy, from this KS-18, again, I mean, we'll see what happens there. But yeah, so watch it. Yeah, they lost to 17th ranked Washington by the count of 24th, 10 last week on the road. This is our second row game, folks. So, came Pinnick, 60 of 25, he got picked off twice in his game. So all right, so you already know what I'm gonna go. The second area's case, the second area that I like, a lot going in, this season, I, I, I, I spent, I hopefully get to come more turnovers. They're in the game, yeah, and all it, Pinnick, a multi threat quarterback.
Yeah, 61, so we gonna, FedEx through the year on the ground. I don't know FedEx, don't know Spire's Spocket. Spockets, but, but yeah, Pinnick had 61 on the ground. Yeah, touchdown. There, as well, the receiver, Daniel Blood, led the Cougars, five catches in the 57 yards in that game right there. Yeah, so, Washington jumped on them. They, by Washington, stay held up, held up, until the four core. So, again, they hung around this ball game again. So, until the four quarters ball game, so yeah, I mean, we'll see what happens there. But yeah, I mean, again, Washington's case, say you're the better team to skate in this ball game, obviously, Washington state, come in, well, they gotta go a little bit to Manhattan. They're probably already over there. At this point, should be already over there by now.
Yeah, I spent, you're offensively, again, I mean, they're gonna be facing a good front, apparently, Washington state, so, so, so, I think it was a second worry still. The office line and office line held up, but it's nickel, so you're gonna get challenged there, a little bit more. Okay, we'll look at, we'll work about trolling next week. But Washington, as for Washington state, this game, can you hold up? You ran, you ran wild over nickels. Five different players, what was in, what was it, what was it, six different TVs by different runners last week there, as well in the, the outcome party of, oh boy. Yes, Rodney Field Jr. Yes, the outcome party of him. Yeah, he was very impressed. Yeah, last week, there, over the catch, when there, Joe Jackson was off to a slow start, during that ball game, but yeah, but he still got,
he still get touched the ball. So, I respect more of the same, run the football, set the pass up, Avery John, yeah, this is a test by test. How, how, improve can you get from week to week, and hopefully we're gonna start from here, and start tomorrow, start of the morning. How, how fast can you get it, get it, right? So, we'll see what happens there, and I'm gonna jump, ship back to the defense there as well. Yeah, so, Bren White, I mentioned, take, take, take, he took one in the house, on his first part, returned, either KC, there's 65 yards, to the house there last week, there as well. So, again, for another K-State season opener, we have a small teams, play a big role in this game, and that from there, I'll just on from there. As well. So, I have a, a sitting Weber, has, has done a solid job,
and I mean, yeah, it's only one game, but a sitting Weber, wants to turn this thing around, brick by brick, and at least after one game, they're, they're pretty, pretty good there as well. So, again, you know, bring back everything, call it, we hear Coach Klein, brought back most of everything, in a different matter, the train, the mascot tackling the opposing teams, student or mascot, oh, that, that was classic, baby, back then, baby, built, we saw that as a, when I was going to KC, obviously, the student, and as a, as a current alum, and current alum, going in these home games, that gets you, that's set of tone, getting the crowd fired up, and whatnot, again, I wasn't there last week, last week, so, so, but yeah, man, fireworks, afterwards, sandstorm, bringing, brought back, so Coach Klein, trying, doing it, cook out of the new school way, things here, out there in Manhattan, Kansas,
K state of tape that wash to the state, tomorrow morning, it built our family's table, it says the second, non-con game, Eddie Greer here for his previous podcast, they were as well, so, hopefully you get come more turnovers, from Pennic tomorrow, and then on top of that, I think you, I think you try to run, here's why I think you try to run the football down, they throw, you got, obviously fields, Joe Jackson fields, Jay Harris, a Montereo, who was a, Montereo? I gotta pull up, this, I gotta pull up a stat sheet on K state, there, But yeah, maybe you do that, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, that's all of that, and we see, if I can find, let me see, yeah, it's Ron Tibbs, back to him, yeah, he scored, there's our first touchdown, other K state season last week, there's, so there's, yeah,
Ronnie Fields Junior, there's him in the mix here, I wanna say, somebody else was, was in his mix, I don't know who, who it was, out of the penalty box. They were as well. So it's all that bones well. Let me see actually. Hang on a second here. Let me see right again. Do it this way. All right. So it really was liquid stable. We called him nickels there as well. So let me yeah, I got in. So who is it? What I say? Yeah. This guy right here, material else. Yeah. He had a big night. This is another name that again, that in the play and in the player preview episodes that can't have come out. And I'm still not that one though. I got like three more that put out. But they'll still I'm going to have them come out anyway. So I'm not too I'm not too worried about that. While Eddie's constantly working. But my material else in junior only needed six carries to get
in the end zone. 76 yards in that game last week. I would like to see the same thing. Run the football. Sit and set the pass up. And again, be smart. This is a team. This is team I hung around. It's Washington State gets 17th ring Washington. I might add there is state rubble already playing them. Now we know we already know that the IBocup is in the book. All books already for 26. And we have a by time this comes out, the board or bring brought back between Missouri 23 ranked Missouri and KU being the books. So we'll know that and we'll talk. We'll obviously say the score of that in a reaction to the podcast offensively. I see yeah, continue what you're doing. The office line needs to continue the gel after being hit hard in camp. So so so you you want to see that. So depending on what I do tomorrow. Mike try might catch a little bit of this game. We'll see because the playbook now is open because I don't think you're
truly yeah, you're truly what going in anyway. Because yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, come in. Yeah, we asked to come in again today. So there's that. So I might try to get yeah, I know it's real, but yeah, so this could in it being a solid weekend here. So we'll see you got NFL football. Yeah, yeah, or 49ers. I need to save that for an HTTP pod. So that was yeah, that was I opened her there, but I shouldn't be surprised about that. It's 49ers are having overlooked. I think it's a big time. So yeah, all that going on. So we'll see. Yeah, man, that yeah, the score that woo that that that called everybody's attention right there, especially a team that got talked about all summer long. Hey, yeah, I'll be fired up too. But I'm always fired up. I'll be fired up too. If your team ain't talking to talk about it sounds like a safer lawyer. Well,
there was a situation. But yeah, man, so can't your case state you gotta go out and set the tone. Do not let Washington state do that. Don't let them do that. That's that's nothing I'm worried about. So we'll see. I mean, the focus of detail, the small things that Coach Clients talked about in these price conferences. And we'll see. We'll see what happens. Because Washington, yeah, this isn't step up. Yeah, Washington state lost. This is a step up a competition. It's going to get team the chicken to rock up as we move along here here. Get going into 26 season. What's this making final score right here before we take our final time out before we talk go through the rest of the big, close, slated games. Yeah, I got yeah, I got K state this one. I got definitely got K state in this one. I'm going to say the same. I'm going to say it's going to be two. With I don't see I'll be I don't see K state scoring 71 points. I don't even see it scoring 50. I'm going to keep it. Well, man, obviously, it goes 50, but they're playing,
they're playing a much better defense that kept Washington state in that ball game. There, I'm going to say, let's keep let's keep it up right around. Oh, man, let's keep it around 31, 13 somewhere in there. I think a lot I think the difference. Yeah, K state's defense. They're flying around. They haven't seen it. And that's Kudos to again, Jordan Peterson, Marcus Wilson, the defense coordinators over there. Yeah, they're definitely flying around. That's what's there there as well. So you got slow pinning down. Yeah, make him throw the football. I don't I don't he's obviously a decent runner. So I just threw throughout his stats from last week. It's the Husky Huskers Huskies. Yeah, Huskies. My bad. Not the Huskers. That's Nebraska. That's that other team over there up north. But yeah, so I think the other thing I think yeah, Karol him on the ground, make him throw the football. And I think they I think you make him throw the football. I think you with your good secondary, your strong secondary, get a cold of picks.
Let's make things happen. Capitalize on those picks too as well. So we'll see what happens there. So when we come back to this preview edition, Washington State Fort Rally Day tomorrow, when this pops up, it'll be game day. Once again, Amy Han, Kansas Bill, star family stadium, look around the big 12. What's up, K state nation. We're back here in this Washington State preview edition of the Pro Parts of Podcast. All things K state sports. We got a lot going on this weekend, obviously. Soccer again. Coming off of, yeah, coming off of another tie.

Getting their fall season started as well. And we'll have it. We'll do our best here to cover it. We'll have coverage of that post-catch wise anyways.
So depending on again, as I'm sitting here, I haven't made anything else official. This weekend, as I'm sitting here. So that is definitely going to change. What I get all what I get back home, the citizens need to be made. So quite frankly soon. So there's that. But you know, you know about it on the EG3 pod. There as well. So before we write, let y'all go for the rest for joy all weekend. Let me see. We can get back out of this page. Yes, the big 12 round round up. Right. We'll talk about the scores on the backside. Of course, we'll have a reaction to this game. Depending on, again, depending on what Eddie decides to do, you might catch a little bit of this game. And maybe the first half of this game.
