When will anyone give Bill Snyder's Wildcats any love? Every year, we doubt and he amazes. With Collin Klein no longer running the show, it's time to prove Alexander Strating Jersey that Kansas State again can play with the Big 12 big boys. Don't ask Mack Brown about K-State, the Wildcats have won five straight against the Longhorns.WEEK 1 PICKSHow they rank1. Oklahoma State2. Oklahoma3. Texas4. TCU5. Baylor6. Kansas State7.

KansasPOWER RANKINGS: | | |Three things to watch-- Mike Gundy has proven time and again that he knows offense and his teams will score points. How many teams return two quarterbacks who pa sed for 1,500 yards? The Cowboys do in Clint Chelf and J.W. Walsh. Gundy recognizes they're both good, said theyve both gotten better and therefore, both will play in the opener against Mi si sippi State.

The Horned Frogs handled their first four games with ease, then QB Casey Shay Fields Jersey Pachall ran into all sorts of off-field i sues and was lost for the rest of the season. The season certainly had its high points -- a double-OT win at West Virginia and a road win at Texas but too many close lo ses sidetracked what could have Derwin James Jersey been a big introduction to the league.
