Final: Kansas State welcomes UCF to the Big 12 in a 44-31 win

DJ Giddens finally put an end to the “who’s going to replace Deuce Vaughn” talk with a 207-yard, four touchdown performance along with 86 yards receiving, and Kansas State needed all of it to overcome defensive miscues in a 37-24 win over Central Florida tonight at Bill Snyder Family Stadium.

Giddens was so prominent that he had 38 touches while the rest of the team only had 29, and personally accounted for 55% of the Wildcat offense. The game puts him at 418 yards on the year, well on pace for a 1000-yard campaign.

The Cats came out hard, scoring a touchdown on their opening drive for the fourth time in four games.
