In a season where K-State has struggled to find an identity and a leader, a player has emerged just in the nick of time as the Wildcats’ bowl hopes are hanging by a thread.
The man who has become the power source for the this team is senior cornerback Morgan Burns.
For the third straight week, Burns was named the Big 12 Special Teams Player of the Week. For Burns, the 2015 season has seen its ups and plenty of downs, but with the season winding down, it is now starting to trend upward once again.
“I think for a lot of guys, including Morgan, we know that we’re getting to the end of the season,” Jordan Willis, junior defensive end, said.
