Kansas State football turns to Blake Barnett, Dillon Duff amid QB injuries

Avery Johnson is out. Jacob Knuth is doubtful. Here's who could start at quarterback for Kansas State against Colorado.

Kansas State football is considering starting Blake Barnett and Dillon Duff as quarterbacks for their upcoming game against Colorado, after both Avery Johnson and Jacob Knuth have suffered injuries. Johnson has been out for two weeks due to an ankle injury, while Knuth is listed as doubtful for the upcoming game after rolling his ankle twice during last week's loss at Arizona State.

Both Barnett and Duff have shown promise in the past, with Barnett having played in four games last season and Duff impressing during the preseason. Barnett could be a change-of-pace power runner, while Duff brings experience and strong passing skills to the table. The Wildcats' quarterback situation appears to be a "cursed" one, with no clear solution in sight.
