Nuggets 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. I already shared the specific hype I’m buying on the offense, and now it is time to examine the K-State defense.

For a defense to be elite it typically takes one group rising above the rest and taking over game after game. Does Kansas State have a group like that in 2025? The coaches think so, and we’re buying it as well.

Each year we always hear about a handful of true freshmen making some positive noise. Sometimes it pans out and sometimes it doesn’t. We identified two from the K-State defense that we believe have bright futures.

Not only does it take a special position group, sometimes it takes a special player. In fact, we’re not sure the best player on the Kansas State defense is from the best position group. That is probably a good thing.
