#22 Kansas State with a big lead over #8 Oklahoma State
28-0 second quarter

Announcers just praised K State' special teams, after a great punt return. Noted they are a well-coached team. They're hitting on all cylinders, up 48-0 with 5:43 to go.

Tough to overstate how impressive this win was for Klieman's gang today. First time Oklahoma St has been shut out since 2009 - coming into the game the Cowboys were averaging 44.7 points per game (3rd in the FBS) and 467 yards of offense per game (23rd in the FBS). Prior to today their season low in points was 34 vs Arizona St and in offensive yards was 379 vs Baylor and K-State held them to 217 total yards and shut them out.

That's two Top 10 wins for Klieman this year. I think K-State learned from last week to keep their foot on the gas until there is 0:00 left in the 4th quarter.

NDSU SOUTH is on fire!!

Good points. Sounds like they'll be giving their 2nd and 3rd string kickers opportunities going forward.
Interesting how K-State's game against TCU paralleled our game against SDSU. Played a nearly flawless first half, but a couple small plays gave all the momentum to TCU going into the 2nd half, even though they were down big.
Talking with K-Staters I work with, it's interesting to hear where they place blame. They all blame Kleiman for the poor play-calling and offense in the 2nd half that cost them the win. Collin Klein gets a pass because he's KSU's golden child. On multiple occasions this season, Klein has gone into his turtle shell and reverted to calling QB run into stacked boxes.

I have to remind the KSU fans repeatedly that 1. Klein is calling the plays. 2. He's doing the same thing that got Messingham fired. 3. The kicker stinks and should also take some blame. 4. Maybe also consider your defense giving up 38?

Hopefully, they put together a complete game today against OSU. Sound familiar?

Well I’d say they put a complete game together lol

What a game! Makes the Tulane game a real head scratcher.....and makes the TCU loss sting. Still a lot in front of them but they could so easily be in the playoff discussion.

I really hope they don't lose to KU in a week and a half. It could happen...that will actually be an interesting game for the first time in a while
