THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN = 5P
Wildcats hoping to claw out of unfamiliar Big 12 territory
The Associated Press
R. C. Slocum sees nothing different about Kansas State's football team, other than its record.
After years of spectacular success, Kansas State is 0-3 in the Big 12, its worst start in
conference play since 1992. The Wildcats' starting quarterback is banged up, and coach Bill Snyder, one of the most driven men in the business, is searching for answers.
Slocum, the Texas A&M coach, is hoping that search extends another week. A&M plays at Kansas State on Saturday.
"I don't see them being a whole lot different," Slocum said yesterday. "They've had some bad breaks this year. They're still a good football team. Looking at them right now (on tape), they look pretty good."
Kansas State's slide started with a game that indicated the Wildcats would be as good as ever, a 38-37 loss to Oklahoma that easily could have been reversed. The offense sputtered the following week in a 16-6 loss at home to Colorado. Surprise turned to shock when Kansas State lost on Saturday to Texas Tech, a team that had lost to the Kansas Jayhawks a week before.
Once ranked 11th, Kansas State is now out of the Top 25 for the first time since early in the 1995 season. Snyder said it was no time to start making wholesale changes.
"We have tried to remain consistent about what we do and not jump around week to week thinking we have to fix or retool everything." he said.
"We have to find out what our strengths are, what our weaknesses are, find our mistakes and try to eliminate them. If we can't,
are we asking our players to do things they are not capable of doing? If so, let's not ask them to do those things.
“It's not any different now that we've lost three in a row than if we had won three in a row. Our approach is the same. It's benefited us in the past and I know it will benefit us in the future.”
Kansas State faced Texas Tech without quarterback Ell Roberson, offensive lineman Matt Martin and defensive end Melvin Williams, all sidelined by injuries. Several others were injured during the game.
Snyder refuses to blame those injuries for his team's struggles.
"I would never attempt to do that," he said. "If someone's missing, someone has to step up and provide the performance needed to win. That's our belief."
Snyder did say he thought his team played hard throughout the game at Tech and noted that some
"A youngster without character would not have done that," he said. "I think their resolve was apparent to me at that time."
Baylor also is 0-3 in the league but considering the schedule, that's not so puzzling. The Bears are in a brutal stretch, facing Texas A&M and Nebraska the last two weeks and playing at No. 2 Oklahoma Saturday. The other loss was at Iowa State.
of the players who limped off with injuries later returned.
"That's one good thing about being in the Big 12 — you get to measure the success of your program and the growth of your program against the best," Baylor coach Kevin Steele said. "In seven of the last eight quarters, playing 5-1 A&M and 7-0 Nebraska, we played pretty well."
"It's making us a better football team."
There have suggestions of a
quarterback controversy brewing at Oklahoma, though not in coach Bob Stoops'mind.
"I don't know what a controversy is," Stoops said.
A controversy could be when the No.2 quarterback starts playing better than the starter. Jason White has played well in relief of Nate Hyb1 each of the last two weeks.
White threw four touchdown passes in a 38-10 victory at Kansas on Saturday after Hybl was just 5-of-11 for 15 yards.
"In our team you earn your position each week," Stoops said. "I've said that all along. That position is no different than any other. That's something we'll deal with this week and we'll have a starter ready."
Kansas coach Terry Allen said using two quarterbacks could help the Sooners because White brought a change of pace with his
running ability.
The Tigers lost to Iowa State 2014 after failing to score on four plays inside the 10-yard line at the end of the game.
"His speed allows him to be multidimensional," Allen said. "It broadens the offense you have to face because of the potential with White in the option and quarterback runs."

Missouri will try to bounce back from a bitter loss when it continues its long rivalry with Kansas in Lawrence.
On one of those plays, a 2-yard run by Zack Abron on third down, Missouri had only 10 players on the field. A wide receiver did not go out after the offense huddled on the sideline.
"It did not affect the play, number one," said coach Gary Pinkel. "Number two, it's also irresponsible on my part. That's my job."
