Collin Klein projected to win seven games as Kansas State head coach
Summary

Collin Klein is set to begin his first season as head coach at Kansas State, with CBS Sports projecting he will win seven games, including four against conference opponents. Klein's return has generated optimism for the program, and quarterback Avery Johnson is expected to thrive under his guidance after a lackluster past season. The team's success will depend greatly on Johnson's performance as he aims to replicate his earlier success in a revamped offensive scheme. Kansas State opens its season against Nicholls State next month.
