What we’re hearing on Kansas State (in terms of inside intel) is relegated to our message board at KSO but still spills out the best information on the Wildcats in the market, both from a team and K-State recruiting standpoint.

Being 2-4 is bad enough but losing the way Kansas State has particularly more excruciating, with all four losses being by one score. To begin the year it didn’t feel like the roster understood how to give 100 percent effort.

While that has changed, can it be sustained amid even more adversity and tough times? It’s a fair question with a Big 12 title game shot seemingly off the table in a year where the Wildcats were even considered the favorite.

It will likely be covered by Curry Sexton when he breaks down the film of the K-State loss with Cole Manbeck on the 3MAW Bonus show, I’m sure, but we point out some details and concepts of a few play designs that give away what the Wildcats have called.
