MANHATTAN, Kan. – Kansas State's defense stifled the Iowa State offense and the Wildcats rushed for 227 yards on the ground to beat the Cyclones, 41-7, Saturday afternoon. Iowa State falls to 1-7 overall and 0-5 in Big 12 play while Kansas State improves to 4-4 overall and 2-3 in league action.
Turning Point of the Game
Iowa State's opening drive started strong with first-down pickups on the first three plays from scrimmage but a false start helped to stall the drive. Kansas State took the control of the game at that point. The Wildcats would drive in for a touchdown and tack on another field goal to lead 10-0 at the end of the first quarter.
KSU would extend the lead to 17-0 at the half and 20-0 at the end of the third quarter but ISU struggled to get much going offensively in the game.
