Kansas State’s toughest test of the season awaits on Saturday, so we invited Allen Kenney of Crimson and Cream Machine and Athlon Sports to help us break down Oklahoma’s strengths and weaknesses. Yes, there actually are a few weaknesses. Mostly, though, the Sooners bring a much-improved defense and another dynamic offense led by quarterback Jalen Hurts, who also happens to be the team’s leading passer. CeeDee Lamb provides another frighteningly good wide receiver for K-State’s strong pass defense to try and contain.

Oklahoma appears destined for a playoff appearance, but we asked Allen if he could foresee any scenario where the Sooners go undefeated and get left out. He also shared his thoughts on Lincoln Riley’s future and why he believes Chris Klieman is the right fit for Kansas State, potentially for the long-term.
