Among them was a 23-20 overtime loss to Oklahoma State in 1996, when current Kansas State co-offensive coordinator Del Miller was in his second year as head coach of the Bears.

The Wildcats will have to work out the kinks against their opponent Missouri State.
The Kansas State Wildcats will host the Missouri State Bears at Bill Snyder Family Stadium on Saturday evening, and you can stream the game on College Sports Live.
“I think he’s making progress”. Winston Dimel ran for four touchdowns on just five carries, and the big fullback joined a cadre of running backs and a trio of elusive quarterbacks in piling up 336 yards rushing and seven scores.
The Bears (2-1) lost the ball on a botched handoff on fourth and one from the K-State 35, and Jordan Willis recovered the fumble. “I wanted our guys, because we have a lot of guys that are twos, threes, I wanted them to get in the ball game”.
ABOUT KANSAS STATE (1-1): Jesse Ertz has thrown for 324 yards, two TDs and one interception while backup Joe Hubener, who started 11 games in 2015 after Ertz was injured, has appeared in both games. Next, another home Valley series against Wichita State will precede Mizzou’s return trip to Hammons Field on April 25, before the Bears kick off the first of back-to-back MVC road weekends with a trek to Evansville (April 28-30).
“The offense started (well)”, Snyder said.
The Wildcats held an opponent to fewer than 300 yards for the third straight time this season, a first since Snyder returned to K-State in 2009. “We have to do a better job of holding players accountable”. If we had any issues defensively it was giving some things up in the draw game. “We have to keep creating turnovers and play hard and physical”. The 2017 NCAA Division I Baseball Championship Selection Show will air May 29, with Regional play beginning the weekend of June 2.
Snyder was disappointed with the game ending early, but happy with the majority of the performance from his team. It seems their offense may also be ready to go as K-State begins Big 12 play next week at undefeated West Virginia.

“That’s two out of three non-conference ball games we haven’t been able to get the twos on the field”, Snyder said.
