No. 11 Kansas State 51, Kansas 13: Tyler Lockett had nine catches for 119 yards and two touchdowns as the host Wildcats beat the Jayhawks for the sixth straight time.
Jake Waters went 21-of-27 for 294 yards and four touchdowns for Kansas State (9-2, 7-1), which remained in a tie atop the Big 12 Conference with TCU. Curry Sexton had nine catches for 141 yards and a touchdown and Charles Jones rushed for 42 yards and a score and caught another touchdown.
Michael Cummings went 16-of-27 for 139 yards, two touchdowns and two early interceptions for Kansas (3-9, 1-8). Nick Harwell had three catches for 41 yards and a score and the Jayhawks were held to 58 rushing yards.
The Wildcats jumped to a 14-0 lead five minutes into the game on Waters' 1-yard run and a 44-yard bomb to Lockett one play after a turnover. Kansas got on the board with Cummings' 27-yard TD pass to Harwell but the extra point was blocked, and Kansas State scored two quick touchdowns - Jones' 11-yard run set up by a 65-yard kickoff return and Lockett's 6-yard TD catch with 47 seconds left - for a 31-6 halftime lead.
Waters opened the third quarter with a 13-yard TD pass to Jones, but Cummings answered with a 19-yard strike to tight end Trent Smiley with 6:32 left in the third. Waters added a 37-yard bomb to a wide-open Sexton and the Wildcats added a pair of field goals in the fourth to set the final score.
