3 questions WSU must answer in Week 2 at Kansas State
Summary
-
Washington State's Apple Cup review identified inefficiency across the offense, including the line, and playcalling that adjusted too slowly to Washington's defensive size and speed; the report treats the opponent's quality as only part of the explanation.
-
Washington State showed more promising playcalling on its final drives in Matt Miller's first game as the game-day caller and Kirby Moore's first as head coach, making faster in-game adjustments a central Week 2 test rather than an established improvement.
-
Washington State's defensive line generated substantial pressure against Washington, with Trent Bray's attacking scheme disrupting the opposing offense; the preview questions whether that intensity can carry over on a short week and another road trip.
-
Kansas State's offensive line is described as young and inexperienced beyond the opener, creating an early protection test against Washington State's pressure-producing defensive front.
