The decisive moment: a fourth-down stop for KSU in overtime.
Kansas State had that well covered, and Tech never had a chance.
This might’ve been the best game of Saturday’s noon ET shift.

That’s God’s formation.
K-State got a two-point conversion after that to set up overtime.
In the overtime, Kansas State’s Byron Pringle caught this touchdown pass to put KSU ahead for the first time since early in the third quarter:
The defensive stop after that sealed the Wildcats’ win.
