Contain Pinnick, Stop the Run | Kansas State Wildcats Basketball News

Washington State’s offense is built around the run, led by dual-threat QB Caden Pinnick, who rushed for a TD but threw two picks—forcing Kansas State to contain him and force passing mistakes. The running backs struggled to gain yards, and the offensive line failed to open holes, leaving little room for play-action or outside breaks. With a key slot receiver sidelined, Darius Clemons and Daniel Blood must carry the passing load, while tight end Jack Pederson remains a blocker. Kansas State’s defense needs to shut down the interior run to pressure Pinnick into uncomfortable throws. If they can stuff the run and force turnovers, they’ve got their best shot at victory.
