Historic Win for Kansas State

Michael Bishop and Mike Lawrence put an exclamation point on Kansas State’s best regular season in 87 years.

Bishop ran for two touchdowns and passed for another to set a scoring record for Kansas State quarterbacks and Lawrence became the school’s career rushing leader as the No. 9 Wildcats beat Iowa State, 28-3, Saturday in a Big 12 games at Ames, Iowa.

Kansas State, 10-1 overall and 7-1 in the Big 12, completed its first 10-victory regular season since 1910 and stayed in the running for a Bowl Alliance berth.

The Wildcats sputtered at times against an Iowa State team that had been giving up 46.5 points a game. But Iowa State (1-10, 1-7) rarely dented a Kansas State defense that limited the Cyclones to zero yards rushing and sacked Todd Bandhauer eight times.

Oklahoma State 24, Baylor 14--Quarterback Tony Lindsay led on three long touchdown drives as the bowl-bound Cowboys finished their finest regular season since 1988 with a victory over the Bears at Waco, Texas.

The Cowboys (8-3, 5-3) are likely headed to the Aloha Bowl. Baylor (2-9, 1-7) finished its worst season since 1973, when it was 2-9 under Grant Teaff.

Lindsay passed for 81 yards and was Oklahoma State’s leading rusher with 73 yards in 16 carries.

The Cowboys went ahead, 21-7, with 12:07 to play in the Big 12 game on a one-yard touchdown run by Brian Aikins to cap a 71-yard drive.

Oklahoma 32, Texas Tech 21--Seth Littrell rushed for two touchdowns and Justin Fuente revived Oklahoma’s dormant passing game to lead the Sooners to a comeback victory at Lubbock, Texas.

Trailing 18-9 entering the third quarter, Fuente, the Sooners’ backup quarterback, took advantage of a shanked Tech punt by throwing a 19-yard touchdown pass to Stephen Alexander for Oklahoma’s third passing touchdown this season.

The Raiders (6-5, 5-3) responded with a 76-yard drive that ended when fullback Jonathan Hawkins fumbled into the end zone, where Oklahoma’s Martin Chase recovered for a touchback.

Fuente then led the Sooners (4-8, 2-6) 80 yards in seven plays, with Littrell scoring from the one.
