KSU’s Klein named Walter Camp National Player of the Week

Kansas State senior quarterback Collin Klein has been named the Walter Camp National Offensive Player of the Week following his performance in the Wildcats’ 55-14 win at West Virginia.

Klein accounted for seven touchdowns (4 rushing, 3 passing) and completed 19-of-21 passes for a career-high 323 yards to lead the Wildcats to their school-record fourth straight road win over a ranked opponent.

With his four rushing touchdowns on Saturday, Klein also broke the NCAA FBS record for rushing touchdowns by a quarterback in two consecutive seasons with 41, while his 47 career rushing touchdowns are a new K-State record, surpassing Darren Sproles’ 45. On the year, Klein has thrown for 1,397 yards and 10 touchdowns while also rushing for 551 yards and 14 scores.
