02:31 – Canton-Galva vs. Little River: the Eagles are 3-7 in the last 10 meetings and haven't won since 2022; Hack on matching Little River's physicality after last week's 46-0 loss
04:09 – Game of the state: No. 1 Sterling vs. No. 2 Inman in 1A — 60-47 last year, 21-20 the year before; Inman hasn't allowed a point (71-0, 41-0), Sterling is down from 95% run to 75%
05:43 – McPherson vs. Buhler: Mac is 8-2 in the last 10 and most were one-score games; blackout night at McPherson College Stadium, the Bullpups off the Great Bend loss, Buhler 2-0 with wins over Maize South and Mulvane
07:17 – KU vs. Arizona State in London (11 a.m.): bouncing back from the Missouri loss, the travel question, KU's 434 yards a game against ASU's 525 (333 through the air), Isaiah Marshall needs a rebound
09:35 – K-State vs. Tulane: Collin Klein remembers the 17-10 loss in 2022 ("no doubt"), 303 rushing yards a game (8th nationally) against a defense giving up 216, the Cats allowing 5.0 points a game as 20.5-point favorites
11:30 – Sponsor: Farmers State Bank
11:53 – NFL week 2, Raiders at Chargers: Ashton Jeanty looked like the real deal against Miami (six catches out of the backfield), the Chargers gave up five sacks to Arizona
14:11 – Steelers at Patriots: a noon game out of the spotlight as the bounce-back recipe, TreVeyon Henderson returning, blocking T.J. Watt and Highsmith — both hosts see an ugly one-score Patriots win
15:29 – Colts at Chiefs, Sunday night: the Colts gave up 202 rushing yards to Baltimore, Alec Pierce is out, Daniel Jones against Spags' defense, Jonathan Taylor as the only path — both say the Chiefs roll
