Kansas State ramps up competition for starting spots
Kansas State coach Bill Snyder seeks depth as he refrains from a fall depth chart. Collin Klein appears the likely starting quarterback for the opener against Eastern Kentucky, while Bryce Brown battles for the top running back spot and a deep wide receiver group vies for playing time. Returning 15 starters, the Wildcats face open competition on defense after posting 29.1 points and 446 yards allowed per game last season, the program’s worst defensive output since Snyder’s first tenure.
