MANHATTAN — As he gains experience and the plays he makes become more instinctual, the game slows down for Kansas State linebacker Elijah Lee. That, in turns, enables him to perform at a faster pace.
Lee saw spot duty a year ago as a true freshman when he was utilized primarily in third-down pass rush situations. His 4.5 sacks was a record for a Wildcat true freshman. This season, Lee is starting at outside linebacker and has a team-high 20 sacks for the 3-0 Wildcats, who have a bye Saturday before opening the Big 12 schedule at Oklahoma State on Oct.
