Houston matchup becomes an urgent test of Klein's first-season adjustments

K-State hosts 3-1, No. 19 Houston on Oct. 10 at 2:30 p.m. CT on FOX after the bye. Houston's rushing and third-down strengths directly target the Wildcats' Cincinnati weaknesses, but its pass defense gives Avery Johnson a possible path; the game will measure defensive correction, offensive execution and Klein's adaptability.
