As the Kansas State football team prepares for its season opener against South Dakota Saturday evening, the offense will feature a host of new starters.
A new quarterback, as well as a vastly different receiving corps and new depth at running back will have to find their way on the field for the first team after, for many of them, serving in back-up roles a year ago.
But on the defensive side of the ball, K-State welcomes back a host of returning starters. National pundits expect the defense to anchor the team while the offense works out the kinks early.
