Spencer Rattler threw for 243 yards with two touchdowns and an interception as No. 6 Oklahoma held on to beat Kansas State 37-31. The game wasn’t over until the Wildcats recovered an onside kick with just over a minute left. Kennedy Brooks added 91 yards rushing and a touchdown and Jeremiah Hall reached the end zone twice for the Sooners, who improved to 5-0 and 2-0 in the Big 12. They helped by two crucial calls that were overturned in their favor by video review. Skylar Thompson returned from his knee injury to throw for 320 yards and three scores for the Wildcats, who fell to 3-2 and 0-2 in the conference.

Kedon Slovis threw three touchdown passes and Parker Lewis kicked three field goals. The Buffaloes continued to struggle under young quarterback Brendon Lewis. Colorado lost its fourth straight game and fell to 0-15 against the Trojans.
