Kansas State quarterback Avery Johnson’s fleet feet were finally on display for the nation to see Friday in the No. 14 Wildcats’ 31-7 win over No. 20 Arizona.
The sophomore showed a little bit of everything, from juking his way through Arizona defenders, to blazing his way down the field with straight-line speed, the visiting Wildcats had no answer for Johnson as he racked up 110 yards on 17 carries, averaging 6.5 yards per rush.
“He’s very fast,” sophomore running back Dylan Edwards said. “He definitely sneaks up on people when he drops back and just starts running. You could hear the players on the field say, ‘Oh snap,’ when he was running and pulling it. So it’s a great feeling to have him out there doing his thing.”
