Sep. 10—To preview Washington State's next game, a road test against Big 12 foe Kansas State, The Spokesman-Review conferred with K-State beat writer Ryan Gilbert, who covers the Wildcats for GoPowercat.
Here is our Q&A.
1. How did K-State's offensive line look against Nicholls, and do the injuries to John Pastore and George Fitzpatrick look to hamper the Cats as much as it might seem?
The offensive line checked all the boxes it could on Saturday. There were a lot of questions surrounding this group entering the season, but game No. 1 was a success. That being said, Nicholls is just not a good football team, so it's tough to get too excited over that performance in the trenches. K-State simply had the bigger, more physically dominant dudes at the point of contact. Anything other than a promising night would have been a concern for the offensive line.
George Fitzpatrick not being able to give it a go didn't help matters, but Collin Klein & Co. certainly couldn't have been caught off guard when they learned he had to be sidelined this season. His health condition from last offseason just lingered and lingered, so it's not like this just happened out of nowhere. There was ample time to create a backup plan. John Pastore, though, was supposed to be not just a starter but a true star at left tackle. His injury, which will sideline him for the season, happened about a month before the season, and then Tanner Morley also had to miss some time late in camp, so everything kind of just compounded at once.

MANHATTAN — Kansas State football's offensive line will be under a microscope throughout the first few weeks of the season due to the preseason injuries that have mounted.
The concern began when the Wildcats announced left tackle John Pastore would miss the season after suffering a lower-leg injury. Pastore, an NFL Draft prospect, was supposed to anchor the group after receiving preseason All-Big 12 recognition.
Those concerns continued to build after Klein said earlier this week that freshman Oliver Miller would miss the first few weeks after getting hurt in practice. Miller was one of the main candidates to replace Pastore at left tackle for the season. They also could be without starting left guard Tanner Morley, who Klein said is day-to-day.
Kansas State isn't required to release an injury update ahead of its Saturday, Sept. 5 game against Nicholls, which kicks off at 6 p.m. We'll update this page ahead of kickoff as players emerge from the tunnel to warm up.
John Pastore (LT) — Out for the season

MANHATTAN — Kansas State football held its first open practice to the media on Tuesday, Aug. 18, and it was highlighted by the notable absences of two ***** umed offensive line starters.
Left tackle John Pastore and left guard Tanner Morley were not seen during the first portion of practice, which saw the Wildcats move from an outdoor practice field to the indoor as weather moved into the Manhattan area.
Kansas State's offensive line has undergone an overhaul this offseason under new coach Collin Klein. Pastore is the team's lone returning starter and is a preseason All-Big 12 player. Morley was the highlight of the Wildcats' transfer portal haul along the offensive line. The other three offensive line spots appear to be up for grabs.
It's unclear whether or how long either player will be held out, or the extent of whatever they are dealing with. Kansas State isn't scheduled to make Klein available to the media until Monday, Aug. 31, while the team's coordinators are scheduled to speak Thursday, Aug. 20.
If Kansas State is without either player, the Wildcats could look to freshman Oliver Miller at left tackle, who has drawn high praise since arriving on campus. The left guard position would be more of a question, as several players have been battling for the right guard spot. Pastore and Morley have been the most sure-fire players to play along the offensive line throughout the offseason.
