UPDATE: The Kansas State Wildcats are set for a critical matchup against the Colorado Buffaloes on November 29, 2025, at 11 a.m. CT. This game is not just another contest; it’s a pivotal moment for K-State, who is just one win away from bowl eligibility.
With a current record of 5-6 overall and 4-4 in the Big 12, the Wildcats have a chance to secure their first three-game bowl win streak in history. The stakes are high as K-State aims to achieve a winning conference record for the first time since 2014.
Fans are buzzing with anticipation, especially after last week’s heart-wrenching loss to Utah, where the Wildcats fell 51-47. K-State’s recent performance saw sophomore running back break records, rushing for 293 yards—the most in a single game in school history. His explosive runs included touchdowns of 66, 80, and 24 yards, earning him the title of Big 12 Offensive Player of the Week.
In stark contrast, Colorado is struggling with a 3-8 record and has lost 6 of their last 7 games. The Buffaloes will be starting quarterback Kaidon Salter, who brings experience but has faced challenges this season, throwing for 1,242 yards with 10 touchdowns and 6 interceptions.
As both teams prepare for the showdown, K-State’s head coach Chris Klieman emphasizes the emotional weight of a Senior Day victory. “Winning on Senior Day is special,” Klieman stated. “It leaves a lasting effect on those kids as they reflect on their time here.”
While Colorado’s Deion Sanders is known for his motivational prowess, the Wildcats’ superior talent and recent history against the Buffaloes—having secured a 31-28 victory in their last encounter—may give them the edge needed to emerge victorious.
As kickoff approaches, the Wildcats are favored by 17.5 points, indicating the confidence in their ability to overcome Colorado. With everything on the line, Kansas State must channel their energy and determination to clinch this critical win and secure their place in postseason play.
Expect an intense atmosphere as the Wildcats look to perform for their home crowd. Stay tuned for updates as this developing story unfolds!
