SAN ANTONIO, Texas
Kansas State may not have aced its first road test of the season, but a 30-3 victory over Texas-San Antonio on Saturday at the Alamodome certainly qualified as a passing grade.
The Wildcats made big plays at opportune times and outmuscled the Roadrunners in a game that felt closer than the score indicated.
K-State trailed 3-0 at the end of the first quarter and led 7-3 at halftime. The game was in doubt until running back Justin Silmon scampered 14 yards for a touchdown at the start of the fourth quarter to give the Wildcats a 20-3 advantage.
