MANHATTAN, Kan. (AP) Offensive lineman Cody Whitehair looks back on the way Kansas State ran the ball last year, especially in critical games late in the season, and can't help but feel accountable.

''We were kind of embarrassed with our run game,'' Whitehair said. ''We really took it to heart. Going back and looking at film, we have a lot of room to improve.''

The Wildcats averaged 189 yards rushing over the first five games, but wound up eighth in the Big 12 at just over 134 per game.
