Oklahoma vs. Kansas State: Game time, live stream, TV coverage

Heading into Kansas State, Perine has yet to have a breakout game this season. Two years ago, we lost this game and ended up going on and winning the Sugar Bowl. He explained there was no magic method to winning all those games in the Little Apple.

By now, most (if not all) of you reading this know the situation K-State faces if they lose this Saturday against Oklahoma. If we can just limit those…. But by this point, we’re nearly halfway through the year. He can take a giant step toward a 2016 return by building off the weekend and rolling against a soft second-half schedule. Fans fled for the exits and the stadium that hosted its 24th consecutive sellout and a crowd of 52,867 fell silent. The Wildcats were tabbed as 20-point home dogs but managed to cover in a 31-21 defeat. They hadn’t been shut out at home since 1991.

Texas rushed for 313 yards to Oklahoma’s 67. Said the 6-foot-1, 209-pound redshirt junior, “I’m walking around, alive and well. We get the ball in (running backs’ and receivers’) hands quickly”.

Oklahoma, which has finished second in the league in back-to-back seasons, was picked second and also has four starters back. Did you really want to beat the Longhorns and contend for a Big 12 Championship, Sooners? But it won’t be easy.

“We should have had a player in the B gap, and we didn’t”, Davis said. “Our character gets revealed in times of adversity”.

Stoops went without his trademark visor Saturday in Manhattan. He came close to throwing a third pick and losing a fumble.

It was a nightmare performance, but Snyder took responsibility.

So who is it going to be on the Sooners’ side that steps up against Kansas State and helps preserve Oklahoma’s impressive record under Stoops of not losing back-to-back games in a season over the last 16 seasons. Texas hammered OU on the ground. Instead, it tried to throw on its first six plays. They say better focus will cure their ills.

“The way we played was unacceptable, ” said Sooners center Ty Darlington said, among the captains who addressed the team. They took command early in the fourth quarter and pulled away. After a three-and-out on that first possession, K-State attempted two passes (with one sack) on its next drive resulting in a Jordan Thomas interception and eventually a 14-0 deficit with 8:28 left in the first quarter.

“That is what the coaches thought we could do”, Snyder said.

Oklahoma kept rolling to open the second half.

Kansas State’s leading rusher, Justin Silmon, has gained 290 yards and averages 4.9 yards per carry.

Shepard, a big-time playmaker on the OU Air Raid attack, should be able to capitalize on a Kansas State defense that has not been very good so far this season defending passing teams.

Oklahoma quarterback Baker Mayfield was sensational, completing 20 of 27 passes for 282 yards and five touchdowns. Charles Jones has added 162 yards and three touchdowns. Westbrook had five catches for 85 yards and a touchdown. Joe Mixon has 33 carries for 160 yards and a touchdown, along with 11 catches for 176 yards and 2 touchdowns.

-Elijah Lee has been a leader on defense for the Wildcats. “It’s simple”, Stoops said.

Will Geary supplied solid pressure and Duke Shelley had positive moments at corner.

“We’ve just got to make sure we go into the game ready to tackle”, Tapper said. We certainly missed him.

The Wildcats allowed Oklahoma to put up 565 yards on offense and absolutely forced the Wildcat defense all day long. At the back row, K-State (11-7, 3-3) had 35 digs – including 30 in the first two sets.
