Live scores, highlights and updates from the Texas Tech vs. Kansas State football game

Kansas State is 7-1 against Texas Tech since November of 2015, and they'll have a chance to extend that success on Saturday. The Kansas State Wildcats will head out on the road to face off against the Texas Tech Red Raiders at 7:00 p.m. ET at Jones AT&T Stadium. Coming off a loss in a game Kansas State was expected to win, they now face the more daunting task of proving themselves against unfavorable odds.

Last Friday, Kansas State couldn't handle Oklahoma State and fell 29-21.

Despite their loss, Kansas State saw several players rise to the challenge and make noteworthy plays. Will Howard, who threw for 152 yards and a touchdown, and also rushed for 104 yards and a touchdown on only ten carries, was perhaps the best of all. That's the first time this season that Howard rushed for 100 or more yards.

Meanwhile, the third road game was the charm for Texas Tech, as they earned their first road win of the season. They blew past Baylor 39-14.

Texas Tech can attribute much of their success to Tahj Brooks, who rushed for 170 yards and a touchdown, and Behren Morton, who threw for 180 yards and three touchdowns while completing 73.1% of his passes. Brooks is on a roll when it comes to rushing yards, as he's now rushed for 100 or more in the last four games he's played. Myles Price kept the secondary busy, picking up 90 receiving yards.

Texas Tech's defense stepped up as well, laying out the QB six times. The heavy lifting was done by Steve Linton and Charles Esters III who racked up five sacks between them.

Texas Tech's win bumped their season record to 3-3 while Kansas State's defeat dropped theirs to 3-2.

As for their next game, Texas Tech is the favorite in this one, as the experts expect to see them win by two points. For those looking to play the spread, keep Texas Tech's opponent in mind: they have a subpar 0-5 record against the spread vs Kansas State over their last five matchups.

Kansas State beat Texas Tech 37-28 in their previous meeting back in October of 2022. The rematch might be a little tougher for Kansas State since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
