Oklahoma State cornerback LaDainian Fields will face a familiar opponent Saturday when the Cowboys visit Kansas State: his cousin and former teammate Rodney Fields Jr. The two grew up competing together, but this weekend they'll be on opposite sidelines.

The Wildcats enter Saturday's matchup with one of the nation's most productive rushing attacks against an Arizona State defense that struggles to stop the run.

Avery Johnson threw for 192 yards and three touchdowns, Rodney Fields Jr. added a 75-yard rushing score, and Kansas State beat Washington State 34-7 on Saturday. The Kansas State defense has yet to allow an offensive touchdown this season in two games — as the lone Cougar touchdown came on a 47-yard interception return by Jaylen Thomas to end the first half. “You could tell in the locker room, their hair was up a little bit which is really, really good,” Kansas State coach Collin Klein said.

Wendell Gregory and Rodney Fields Jr. transferred from Oklahoma State in the off-season, and K-State has benefited from having them on the team.

Rodney Fields Jr. had a lot of K-State people excited when he transferred from Oklahoma State, and he showed his potential in Week 1 against Nicholls.

Oklahoma State will see plenty of familiar faces this season. The Cowboys are set to face 15 former OSU players across eight opponents, including four at Kansas State. From Rodney Fields Jr. and Wendell Gregory to Zane Flores, the transfer portal has created plenty of reunion games.

K-State has three running backs who have shown they can make big plays, and offensive coordinator Sean Gleeson sees a high ceiling for this group.
