Collin Klein rushed for two touchdowns, including this 34-yarder that gave K-State a 20-0 lead in the third quarter. It was his 52nd career rushing touchdown, which moved him into sole possession of fourth place in Big 12 history.
FORT WORTH, Texas - No. 2 Kansas State used a stellar defensive effort to earn a 23-10 win at TCU and move to 10-0 for the first time since 1998. The win gave the Wildcats back-to-back 10-win seasons for the first time since 2002 and 2003 and moved them to 7-0 in league play for just the second time in school history. In their first meeting with TCU as a Big 12 member, the Wildcats forced a pair of turnovers and registered a season-high six sacks to hold the Horned Frogs to a season-low 10 points. K-State nearly had the shutout before TCU registered a field goal with 6:59 left in the fourth quarter and a touchdown with just 47 seconds left. It was the fewest points scored by the Frogs since also tallying 10 against Boise State in 2010 Fiesta Bowl and the fewest at home under head coach Gary Patterson. Senior quarterback Collin Klein ran for two touchdowns to extend his school career record to 52 and move into sole possession of fourth place in Big 12 history. He accounted for 50 yards on 15 carries, while he added 145 yards passing on 12-of-21 attempts. Senior placekicker Anthony Cantele accounted for the rest of the Wildcats’ points with field goals of 41, 20 and 27 yards. He missed on a 48-yarder just before halftime after an interception by safety Ty Zimmerman. Klein opened the game with just his third interception of the season, as freshman defensive end Devonte Fields made a diving catch for his first career pick. However, the Horned Frogs failed to take advantage by going three-and-out. By time they got the ball back, TCU was trailing for good and on way to its third consecutive home loss, all to Big 12 teams. Klein’s next play was a 62-yard pass to wide receiver Chris Harper, who got an extra 15 yards or so on the play dragging defenders after making the catch
near midfield. That drive ended with Klein’s 7-yard touchdown run. When TCU punted again, wide receiver Tremaine Thompson had a 33-yard punt return to the Frogs 41. The first of Cantele’s three field goals, a 41-yarder, made it 10-0. Klein’s had two rushing touchdowns in the contest to give him 19 for the season, which ties for third place in school history. Patterson, TCU’s winningest coach with 115 wins in 12 seasons, started his coaching career as a KState graduate assistant in 1982, long before Snyder got there, and was part of the Wildcats’ first bowl team. He played there the previous two seasons, as a safety and linebacker who played a lot on scout teams and a little on special teams. Kansas State had a 13-0 lead after Cantele made a 20-yard field goal with 28 seconds left in the first half. That came after Deante Gray tried to field a punt that sailed over his head, and it was recovered at the Frogs 5.
Ty Zimmerman picked off his 10th career pass against the Horned Frogs. He is now tied for sixth in school history. 2012 BIG 12 CHAMPIONS 63
