All it took was one play for Kansas State quarterback Adrian Martinez to set the tone against Texas Tech. And that play was the first of Saturday's game — a 57-yard run that quickly put the Red Raiders on their heels.
He was 12-for-19 passing for 116 yards for Kansas State , while Deuce Vaughn had 170 rushing yards for the Wildcats, who extended their winning streak against the Red Raiders to seven games.
Donovan Smith was 34-for-48 passing for 359 yards and two TDs for Texas Tech . Smith also rushed for a touchdown. But he was sacked six times, three each by Felix Anudike-Uzomah and Khalid Duke. Trey Wolff kicked a 51-yard field goal for Tech before the break, then tied the score at 20-20 with a 39-yard field goal midway through the third quarter.
