Collin Klein: Avery Johnson is growing as unbeaten Kansas State opens Big 12 play at Cincinnati
Johnson has thrown for 54 touchdowns and helped Kansas State average 45.3 points per game under Klein.
- Kansas State opens Big 12 play Saturday night at Cincinnati, with quarterback Avery Johnson leading the undefeated 3-0 Wildcats under head coach Collin Klein.
- Klein, a former Kansas State quarterback, returned last year as head coach after a two-year stint at Texas A&M, reuniting with Johnson, whom he helped recruit to Manhattan several years ago.
- The Wildcats are averaging more than 490 yards per game, their most in three decades, while Johnson last week became the first player in school history to throw for at least 200 yards and run for at least 150 yards in one contest.
- After throwing an interception returned 50 yards against Washington State, Johnson showed resilience, with Klein saying, "No one is going to be harder on him than me" while guiding his growth.
- Johnson has thrown 54 touchdown passes, a school record, and will soon move into third in career passing yardage as the Wildcats emerge as a dark-horse contender for the College Football Playoff.
