WILDCATS WRECK SOONERS
Kansas State wins 48-41 in shootout
MANHATTAN, Kan. — Skyler Thompson passed for 213 yards and ran for four touchdowns as Kansas States stunned fifthranked Oklahoma 48-41.
It was the first home win for the Wildcats (5-2, 2-2 Big 12) over Oklahoma (7-1, 4-1) since 1996, and just their fourth win ever over a top-five team. It also snapped the Sooners’ nationleading 22-game road win streak — a span of five years and 22 days since their loss at TCU.
Oklahoma appeared to have recovered an onside kick with 1:45 left in the game, but the call was overturned on review because the ball had touched a Sooners player just short of the necessary 10 yards.
