Week 11 of college football is winding down and this clash featuring Baylor vs Kansas is one of the few remaining. These two teams are on complete opposite ends of the spectrum – but both will clearly look to get a win and try to end their regular seasons on a high note.
Baylor is currently 3-6 on the season, close to the bottom of the Big 12 standings. They're on a two-game skid right now after beating Cincinnati last October 22. And yet, there's an air of confidence for the Bears right now even if they're going on the road for this game. That's because they're actually unbeaten away from McLane Stadium. It's just two games, but they need to take any note of positivity they can get.
On the other hand, however, the 6-3 Kansas State Wildcats are unbeaten in five home games. They too have an air of confidence with them heading into this game; perhaps far better than what the Cougars can muster, but that's a story for another time. Either way, the Wildcats recently lost against the mighty Texas Longhorns, so they'll look to bounce back.

Baylor's quarterback situation
Blake Shapen suffered an MCL injury back in September and was out for 2-3 weeks. But since returning, he's logged elite numbers all throughout October and early November as if the injury didn't slow him down too much.
Shapen's most recent performance against Houston saw him tally 263 pass yards on 29-of-37 passes. He also had two touchdowns and an interception in the loss. His last winning performance, for comparison, saw him pass for 316 yards against Cincinnati, going 25-of-42.
For now, there's no recent official word on Shapen's status heading into the Baylor vs Kansas State clash. But expect him to play given his recent outputs.
Kansas State's quarterback situation
Will Howard had his best game of the season so far in the Wildcats' defeat at the hands of Texas. He logged 327 pass yards on 26-of-41 passes in the OT loss, with four touchdowns and one interception.
Overall, he's contributed much to Kansas State's success this season. He's helped the Wildcats be the 15th-highest-scoring team in the nation thus far, but he'll need a bit more help from his squad if he's going to be able to create offensive opportunities.
