MANHATTAN
Kansas State played its most complete game of the season and defeated Texas 24-21 on Saturday at Snyder Family Stadium.
The Wildcats (4-3, 2-2 Big 12) chose an ideal time to up their game, winning a toss-up game against the Longhorns (3-4, 1-3) that could go a long way toward determining whether they go on to have a successful season.
A loss would have been crushing, but now that’s only a concern for Texas, which has lost five straight road games against K-State dating back to 2002.
The Wildcats won this game by delivering their best offensive performance against a conference opponent and making big plays on defense.
