The kid from little Loveland, Colorado is getting no love.
Junior Collin Klein in undoubtedly the most unstoppable force at Kansas State. He’s leading the most surprising team in the nation to one of the most prolific seasons in school history. There are 5 or 6 players that are, in number of popular votes, ahead of the Wildcat quarterback.
Klein goes to school in the Little Apple (Manhattan, Kansas) but he has at least earned a trip to the Big Apple.
He has 34 total touchdowns through just 10 games. And he’s done it in one of the best, most physical conferences (Big XII) in America. Klein has, on average rushed for 100 yards and 3 touchdowns per game. He leads the nation in rushing touchdowns, and that includes all the running backs. He’s also rushed for more than every quarterback than one (Chandler Harnish from NIU) and he’s 150 yards ahead of Denard Robinson.
Not to mention his even less notarized passing skills. Klein has thrown for 10 touchdowns, or as many as AJ McCarron (Alabama quarterback) and John McEntee (UCONN quarterback and trivial-gun-slinger extraordinaire).
Klein has led his team, in his first year as a starter, to an 8-2 record. And more than a friendly pat on the back he should be in the conversation for the Heisman Trophy.
