He coaches for K-State, she recruits for OU. Their football teams are about to meet

Zach and Annie Hanson are a one-of-a-kind couple who are about to face a one-of-a-kind challenge.

On Oct. 27, they will have no choice but to put their jobs before their marriage for about three hours when Kansas State takes on Oklahoma at Memorial Stadium in Norman.

Zach is the tight ends coach for the Wildcats. Annie is the executive director of recruiting for the Sooners. On any other day, they would support each other and cheer for both teams. Their relationship, which they affectionately call Team Hanson, always comes first.

But they can’t both win on this upcoming Saturday.
