Regardless of QB, K-State's ball-control offense can't keep up with No. 19 Oklahoma

NORMAN, Okla. — The drive was classic Kansas State offense. Mixing runs and short passes, the Wildcats marched 89 yards in 17 plays in a span of 8 minutes, 32 seconds.

The trouble was, Oklahoma had already scored two touchdowns and came back with a third after K-State’s initial touchdown. In scoring those three TDs, the Sooners needed only one more minute than the one Wildcat drive, producing 21 points in 9:32.

Even before K-State quarterback Jesse Ertz left the game with an apparent shoulder injury, Oklahoma had too much firepower and beat the Wildcats 38-17 on Saturday at Memorial Stadium.
