Iowa State Frustrates Texas Tech

Lane Danielsen sprinted 79 yards for a touchdown on a reverse and Seneca Wallace scored on a spectacular 12-yard run, leading No. 11 Iowa State to a 31-17 victory over Texas Tech on Saturday night at Ames, Iowa.

Iowa State (6-1 overall, 3-0 Big 12 Conference) frustrated a Texas Tech offense that had averaged 48.3 points over its last three games. Red Raider quarterback Kliff Kingsbury, who had thrown for more than 400 yards in each of his two previous games, had only 272.

Texas Tech (4-3, 1-1) contained Wallace for 2 1/2 quarters, and the two teams were locked in a 3-3 tie before the Cyclones took advantage of two Tech fumbles to break it open.

Wallace also threw a 20-yard touchdown pass to Lance Young and Michael Wagner had a three-yard TD run for the Cyclones.
