The Kansas State defense celebrates after Brandon Harold forced a recovered a fumble on a quarterback sack with 1:58 remaining in the fourth quarter. The Cats kicked a field goal and then held Iowa State on their last possession to seal the win.
KANSAS CITY, mo. - Daniel Thomas rushed for 181 yards and two touchdowns on a career-high 34 carries, and Kansas State rallied to beat Iowa State 2720 on Saturday. Carson Coffman added 104 passing yards for the Wildcats (3-0, 1-0 Big 12), who have won back-toback conference openers for the first time in 10 years. Austen Arnaud threw for 122 yards and a touchdown to lead Iowa State (1-2, 0-1), which lost its third straight to Kansas State. Thomas's 2-yard TD run gave Kansas State a 2420 lead with 6:47 left. Brandon Harold then sacked Arnaud with 1:58 left and recovered a fumble, setting up a 42-yard field goal by Josh Cherry 20 seconds later. The Cyclones drove to the Wildcats' 36-yard line with 19 seconds left, but Arnaud threw a pair of incompletions to end the rally. Down three early in the fourth quarter, Kansas State jumped back ahead 24-20 with an 83-yard touchdown drive. Thomas capped it with five straight carries, including the touchdown run off a pitch from Coffman, after Brodrick Smith came back to the ball for a crucial 47-yard catch. Iowa State rolled the dice, converting a fourthand-1 from their own 17 with 4:57 left and on fourth-and-1 from their own 28 a few plays later. But Arnaud never saw Harold coming, and Harold scooped up the ball at Iowa State's 25-yard line. Iowa State burned all its timeouts to get the ball back with 1:38 left and a chance to tie it. The Cyclones got close, but Arnaud missed a wide-open Alexander Robinson downfield, and Iowa State didn't get any closer. Thomas opened the second half with a 23-yard
run, and it looked like the Wildcats were finally poised to take over a game they had controlled to that point. Thomas had a spectacular 1-yard touchdown plunge midway through the third quarter, putting the Wildcats back ahead 17-14. Grant Mahoney's field goal tied the game at 17 late in the third quarter, and he put Iowa State ahead 20-17 with 11:26 to go. The Wildcats ran it 28 times for 163 yards against Iowa State's rush defense in the first half and rushed 50 times for 262 yards for the game.
Daniel Thomas scored his second touchdown of the game, a two-yard scamper in the fourth to give K-State a 24-20 lead.
