Kansas State Survives at Oklahoma State, 14–6, to Keep Bowl Bid on Track

A turnover-fueled defensive stand offset a sputtering offense as the Wildcats moved to 5-5 with two games left.

Overview

  • Kansas State’s defense forced five turnovers — two fumbles and three interceptions — with four coming on consecutive second-half drives in its own territory.
  • Avery Johnson connected with Jayce Brown for a 34-yard touchdown after a fourth-down penalty extended the drive, and Joe Jackson added a 15-yard score on fourth-and-short.
  • Oklahoma State’s last possession reached the K-State 24 before turning it over on downs, sealing a 14-6 final and extending the Cowboys’ Big 12 losing streak to 16 games.
  • The win puts Kansas State at 5-5 (4-3 Big 12), leaving the Wildcats one victory from bowl eligibility with a Nov. 22 road game at Utah up next.
  • The final pregame injury report confirmed linebacker Austin Romaine is out for the season and receiver Jerand Bradley was ruled out and could miss additional time.
