Kansas State football could be without Avery Johnson against Arizona State! The Wildcats' starting quarterback is officially listed as questionable, creating major uncertainty ahead of Saturday's Big 12 showdown in Tempe. Can Collin Klein and Kansas State defeat Kenny Dillingham's Arizona State Sun Devils if Avery Johnson cannot play? On today's Locked On Kansas State, we break down Johnson's injury designation, what it means for the Wildcats' offense, and whether Kansas State can continue building momentum following its 35-24 victory over Kansas in the Sunflower Showdown. Johnson has thrown for approximately 1,300 yards and 10 touchdowns while adding 462 rushing yards and three scores this season. His mobility was critical against Kansas, where he rushed for 132 yards on 12 carries. But what happens if Johnson plays at less than 100%? And could backup quarterbacks Jacob Knuth or Dillon Duff be forced into action? We also examine whether Kansas State has finally discovered its offensive identity under Collin Klein. The Wildcats rushed for more than 350 yards against Kansas, including 30 rushing attempts on 35 second-half plays. Joe Jackson and Rodney Fields have developed into a dangerous backfield combination, and Arizona State's struggling run defense could create another massive opportunity. Can Kansas State rush for 250 yards and three touchdowns against the Sun Devils? Defensively, we discuss why pressuring Arizona State quarterback Mikey Keene is essential, how Darian Whitaker Jr. and Wendell Gregory could create turnovers, and why freshman Oliver Miller is becoming an intriguing offensive weapon. Plus, we give our Kansas State vs. Arizona State prediction and explain why the Wildcats can still win even with questions surrounding Johnson's availability. Will Avery Johnson play Saturday? And does Kansas State have enough to win without him? #KansasStateFootball #KState #Big12Football Photo Credit: Evert Nelson IMAGN Go AD Free and More with the Everydayer's Club!
