Oklahoma Vs. Kansas State Final Score: Cats Exit Title Hunt, 58-17

Oklahoma was clinging to a 23-17 lead over Kansas State at the half, but you wouldn’t know it from the final score. The Sooners came out of the half gunning, turning a 23-17 lead into a 58-17 win, keeping the Wildcats off the board in the second half while putting up points in bunches.

It was a superb bounce-back game for the Sooners, who were knocked off their pedestal last weekend by Texas Tech. Landry Jones was his usual self, throwing for 505 yards and five touchdowns. Jones also threw two interceptions, both of which came in the first half.

The Oklahoma Sooners shook whatever hangover there was from last weekend’s loss to Texas Tech early, but find themselves in a battle with Kansas State at the half. Oklahoma has the lead, 23-17, but the Wildcats are right there, despite an inability to throw the ball.

Compare the quarterback stats for a moment and the discrepancy jumps off the page. Oklahoma quarterback Landry Jones threw for 290 yards and two touchdowns in the first half, but also tossed two interceptions. Colin Klein, on the other hand, threw for just 32 yards on four completions. Klein, known more for his running, picked up 104 yards and two touchdowns on the ground.

Oklahoma is trying to get right after losing its first game of the season last week. Kansas State is trying to stay undefeated. Apparently, that’s the recipe for a good, old-fashioned Big 12 shootout. The Sooners lead the Wildcats, 20-17, in Manhattan.

If you like points, this might be the game for you.

But the Wildcats allow just 19.7 points per game, 23rd in the nation. This will be there first real test of the season since squeaking out a 36-35 victory over then No. 15 Baylor. Could the Wildcats pick up the win and set themselves on the path to a BCS bowl game? Bring on the Cats, our Kansas State blog, believes it’s possible, but calls a potential victory more of a “first step.” After this game, they still must face Oklahoma State, Texas A&M and Texas.
