After Kansas led through much of the second half, a go-ahead 51-yard field goal by Kansas State senior kicker Chris Tennant soared through the uprights, giving the Wildcats (7-1, 4-1 Big 12) a 29-27 win over Kansas (2-6, 1-4 Big 12), the 16th straight victory for KSU in the series.

It is the narrowest margin of victory in the series since a 10-9 Wildcat victory over KU in 1993.

The Wildcat offense struggled at times, especially in the second half, while the K-State defense held strong late, shutting KU out in the fourth quarter, after struggling to get stops through the first three quarters of the game.
