MANHATTAN, Kan.
Kansas State did enough to throw a scare into Baylor, but it needed more to upset the nation’s second-ranked team.
The Bears held on to beat the Wildcats 31-24 on Thursday, a result that gave K-State its first five-game losing streak since 2008 and its first five-game skid under coach Bill Snyder since 2005.
Some may take K-State’s performance as a positive step, considering it appeared hapless at times during recent losses to Oklahoma and Texas. But it was another bitter pill to swallow for a team that is accustomed to winning.
