Last week, I ranked the K-State home football games of the 2024 season from least compelling to most compelling. This week, I rank K-State’s road schedule. Generally, none of these road games scare me too much, so I find all of them winnable. Of course, you never know what might happen. No road game is ever easy, even in the non-conference… 6.
