Kansas State mind-set

After a tough loss to Oklahoma State, Kansas State is not sulking. They are where they should be in terms of the approach and focus according to quarterback Will Howard. They have returned to the 1-0 mantra.

Every week is a one-game season. They want to win every week and every day and every practice and every rep.

K-State is also working on the task at hand this week. There is no looking ahead to future opponents or looking back at past games. The season also is not over for the Wildcats, and they want to focus more on the people that matter.

They should be listening to their teammates and coaches and nobody outside of the Vanier Family Football Complex.

Wide receivers

It is no secret that the Kansas State wide receivers are struggling a bit at this point of the season. Seth Porter said the position group has to be able to get open more consistently and create separation. However, the super senior also doesn’t think they need to try anything crazy.

The position group has trained and practiced how to get open and for the moment. They just need to hone in on the technique and use it more effectively on Saturdays.

Sigle coming into his own

The game appears to be slowing down for North Dakota State transfer Marques Sigle. The junior safety for K-State is playing a brand new position to him and is playing Power Five football for the first time, so it is no surprise that it probably took him a little bit to get going.

After the Missouri game, Sigle did not want to have another game like that again so he trained and practiced harder to make sure it did not happen. The junior even admitted his abilities are improving every week as he continues to gain comfort within the system.
