Kansas State returns quarterback Will Howard, its entire offensive line and plenty of playmakers on defense from a team that won the Big 12 title last season. The No. 16 Wildcats probably won't sneak up on anybody after they were picked to finish second to Texas. They have to replace to All-American Deuce Vaughn in the backfield and first-round pick Felix Anudike-Uzomah on defense. A few transfers should help fill the voids. The big one is Florida State transfer Treshaun Ward, who could join returning DJ Giddens to form one of the league's best running back tandems.
