Who is Dillon Duff? What to know about Kansas State's latest starting QB
Kansas State appears to be rolling with sophomore Dillon Duff at Colorado. Here are some things to know about the Wildcats' latest starting QB.
Kansas State's sophomore quarterback Dillon Duff is set to make his first career start and collegiate appearance on Saturday, October 31, when the Wildcats face the Buffaloes at Folsom Field in Boulder, Colorado. ESPN's Pete Thamel reported the news, citing unnamed sources. Duff would be the third different starting quarterback for the Wildcats in three weeks, following Avery Johnson and Jacob Knuth, who were both ruled out for the Big 12 matchup.
Coach Collin Klein expressed confidence in Duff during the preseason, noting his efficiency in throwing the football, good decision-making, and ability to protect the ball. Despite Duff's lack of collegiate experience, Klein has consistently shown faith in his abilities. Duff's impressive high school career includes winning a state championship in 2024, completing 64.4% of his passes for 2,741 yards, 26 touchdowns, and 6 interceptions, and rushing for 666 yards and 9 scores, including three games with 111 or more rushing yards.
