Kansas State vs. Houston: Preview & Notes
Houston has the reputation of a strong defensive team, but the Cougars have mostly been winning with offense this season. They rank sixth nationally in offensive success rate and second nationally in late-down conversion rate.Â
However, Houston ranks 103rd nationally in EPA/pass allowed and 98th in Net EPA allowed/drive, meaning teams have had no trouble throwing the ball and scoring on Houston.Â
The game will likely come down to whether or not Kansas State is flexible enough to lean into the potential of quarterback Avery Johnson’s passing game. The Wildcats rank eighth in EPA/rush but only 60th in EPA/pass.
