Kansas State quarterback Avery Johnson will miss the Wildcats' game at Colorado on October 31. Backup Jacob Knuth is listed as doubtful after suffering an ankle injury during last week's loss at Arizona State. This setback forces Kansas State to potentially start their third quarterback in three weeks, with Blake Barnett or Dillon Duff likely filling the position. Coach Collin Klein has not provided details on Johnson's injury, while availability reports are expected later this week ahead of kickoff.
