It was a tough loss because KSU is a rivalry game. Had an injury in practice where they loss Spencer Roe on Thurs and in a similar injury both Locklin and Kendrick.
He said not taking anything away from Kansas State he felt you could it play a factor.
On injuries he talked about 17 guys who are out for the season. Injuries are part of the game.
Will Huggins gone for year through surgery.
They have four healthy RB and that means payers who can play special teams.
He was proud of Jalon Daniels and they way he came in. He didn't have many reps in practice. 75% to the starter and then 25% to the back up and a "sprinkle" to the third string.
In August there was a QB competition and he got reps back then. It showed he was paying attention and watching.
They are fortunate to have Daniels and said some guys in that position wouldn't play and say they were told they would redshirt. If he's called upon he will be ready.
Miles Fallin taking some reps and been in program for a long time.
Jason Bean is still questionable. On Monday he was doubtful.
Said Zebrowski thrives in these situations as a coach. Said he is probably drinking more energy drinks and burning the midnight oil.
Trevor Wilson stepped back up and Luke Grimm was hurt. Hoping to get Grimm back this week.
On team improvements they talked about 36 fewer sacks allowed compared to the nine games last year. Fuchs has done a good job. They can compares some things to last year since they played nine games for the season.
They are gaining confidence and protecting their QBs. #2 in Big 12 in fewest sacks allowed and #16 in the nation.
Avg 47 yards per game more on offense than last year.
They have 300 more rushing yards compared to last season. A full yard per carry better. Said something that doesn't get mentioned is the blocking of the WR.
Asked if he is happy with the game of college football.... said they are working to get better at it. He's more on side of expanding playoffs. Said they are working on safety. He said he wished they could shorten the TV timeouts.
