1998 #5 Kansas State vs Texas Football - 1st Half

this made pawns of opposing ball carriers today they match up against a king longhorn who they hope to keep in check the entire state is painted purple they come only to party they hope the party afterwards late and they come by every form of transportation the main event a man and our matchup the fourth ranked Wildcats at Kansas stayed home the Longhorns of Texas hi everybody I'm Brad Nessler we welcome you we're today Kansas State has not played anybody quite frankly at this point there - and OH on the season two lopsided wins they meet a Texas team still reeling a bit from their loss last week to UCLA and gary Danielson also Texas has to come in Richard Walton got hurt last week they come in with a big question mark at quarterback his name is major Applewhite he's only played 18 plays he's come into this game as the question mark the brandy can do that question mark into a positive by making the easy plays catching the snap from the center and and he's got an exclamation point the hand man fall off - and Ricky Williams protects us to win Ricky Williams have to carry them all at least 30 times in this game problem for Ricky Williams there's a Kansas State defense that will punctuate you there's a punctuation marks don't they they've got the best line backing crew in the college Seminole Oaks and Kelley this defense will disrupt you they'll clean up the mess and end up mop up whatever is left this is one of outstanding defenses in college but should be a great matchup we've got it coming up Kansas State and Texas next [Music] welcome to our college football studios in New York I'm John Saunders out to your game in just the moment the first an update of some scores NC State coming off that win against Florida State trailed this one 26 to nothing they're fighting back Rutgers no match for Syracuse 70 to 14 Donovan McNabb with another outstanding day in Eastern Michigan hands Michigan their first win 59 to 20 we will see at halftime right now up to your game sold out KSU stadium and Wagner Field in Manhattan Kansas Texas won the toss and deferred so Kansas State will get their hands on it first the Longhorns off to a one-on-one start and right now are giving up 533 and a half yards a game Kansas State on the other hand a 2a no start they've scored more points than anybody in the country and they have won nine games in each of the last five seasons and that's a very elite list that they join Mack Brown his first year as head man at Texas after successful years in Chapel Hill with North Carolina Bill Snyder and his tenth season has probably done the biggest reclamation job in the history of college football in the city you could drop the probably Chris Duncan's got it teed up for the Longhorns back deep David Allen Gerald leasman awaits and we're underway from Manhattan and these men six yards deep will not bring it out so Kansas State's offense for the first time today from its own 20-yard line as we take a look at the chiles starting lineup first for Kansas State the big uns up front Ryan young a potential first round draft choice at tackle with Martin Cummins Hanley and Stevenson in the receiver core they haven't had to throw much Darnell McDonald has seven catches to lead the club Burnett the other white out and Swift's a good tight end into the backfield air kicks in closing in on the all-time school record for rushing Goolsbee as his lead man and Michael Bishop right there is the man at the controls and he is very very entertaining to watch first down Kansas State only I and a Texan who's hit immediately Casey hit that and company closed the door along with dusty Renfro as we take a look at the Longhorn defense Hampton was in on that tackle Hut very watered in Kelly around out for the front for a great job last week by DeAndre Lewis who had 14 tackles in the game we saw against UCLA Renfro and Babineaux the other two backers a very inexperienced secondary McGowan's one of three back there and Holmes jammer and Walker they are still concerned about that group Gary yeah and they've continued to shuffle them around trying to fight the right to find the right combination yeah Tony hope sits back at corner after starting the season a corner moving the strong safety last week and now back to corner some early frustration for Kansas State they lose a yard and then they're confused with their offensive alignment they'll take a timeout we're just underway we'll be right back [Music] [Applause] [Music] at America's top university the most gifted mind belongs to the guy who cleans the floors winner of two Academy Awards including Best Original Screenplay and Best Supporting Actor Robin Williams who are bound by nothing Good Will Hunting now on pay-per-view rated R [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Music] strong wind in Manhattan Kansas I tell you how strong it's like a two club I'm sorry but still in the summer there this is heavy wind so so windy that we lost a couple post-it notes already off you gotta have something more than 30 and it's gonna be right to left on your screen so Kansas State going right into it oh that guy will it not really he's got some pretty good zip on the football second down and a long Tim and Bishop with the audible at the line Goolsbee the single setback a two time in formation you'll take off on his own he does a lot of this he's very successful at it Bishop puts a shoulder that took a big the 26-yard line they said my Joe Walker they put a few of those on Michael Bishop you won't forget them until next week sometime at the bring up third down along for while Michael Bishop is similar to what Texas saw a week ago in Cade McNown Mike goes probably a couple steps faster throws the ball a little harder I don't know if he is quite the the finisher that Kate is and within the offense but I think Michael Bishop will do more things outside of the offense by design like that play right there back to two wideouts set up i backfield play-action he's going to take off again 3070 my bishop is gyrating and talking right into the bench of Texas of course he came out of Texas big Texas fan coming out of high school and junior college a play action quarterback draw you don't see a lot of that dusty Renfro the middle linebacker came across but as he got up he gave a mouthful in an earful to Texas well that's a tremendous amount of respect you have for your quarterbacks running ability when it's a play fake and a quarterback all together they have not seen a lot of that no but designed for a special athlete that's what Snider has done here started career numbers rushing [Music] [Applause] and estates high-powered offense in gear here in the opening moments but you can see what Kansas State does establish Bishop inside and then pick on the weakness of the defense for Texas the corner play there's just you know the films have been passed around this pass defense for Texas has weak corners and you will see a lot of anticipation of throwing the ball at those guys in this game by Michael Bishop now it's a three wide out group and for all practical purposes an empty backfield this shift the quick slant Donelle McDonald right between the eight to zero but he dropped it it's like Aaron Humphrey might have been on sides on the play though like ow and there it is down in the bottom of your screen Humphrey who was so aggressive last week against Cade McNown and had an excellent game with the penalty give me an idea of how effective Humphrey was not counting his hurries in the game when he did a great job a Russian Cade McNown and flashing out of the pocket but he also had six tackles in that game the rest of the defensive line combined only hit five yeah not a good sign good game for air and bad sign for the rest of that group it is first and five right here after the penalty Swift the tight end in the stand-up position Allah the Hawkeye's of Iowa from where Bill Snyder came is offensive coordinator whose hips [Applause] [Applause] what's the trapping tackle Stevenson one of the supposedly fences on this offensive line pulls around gets in front of a button and finally fits on someone that's what they're telling those tackles keep running keep running until you find someone hopefully you don't feel defensive back that's a good side Alec and just a team that's been scoring at more than a point of minutes in their first two games in here the 1243 mark they've got their first six martine gramática to try to make it seven and us 80 yard march the wild cats cats by Hickson from 44 yards out in 7 other see sports presentation of college football brought to you by the new dodge it's about change by brewery fresh Budweiser who remind you fresh beer tastes better my Sears come see the many sides of Sears and by chiles a proud sponsor of ABC college football [Music] Brad Nessler gary Danielson back with you the Manhattan Kansas where the Jayhawks are the Jayhawks boyega's shot saying that where the Wildcats have already scored seven an 80-yard Drive he's the other guy but not the point out if there is anything on you seven nothing dramatic hit a kick high and short kick they recovered one of these last week but it wasn't fielded by the opposition this one is what our young men of Texas takes it and got it out in the air the 25-yard line Andre Louis field of that kick check out Quinton jammer number six right here he's the guy who winds up getting blocked on this play he does not react quick enough come on up come on up come on up by the time he gets up there it's too late he overruns the play and turns a nice 10 yarder into a touchdown those safeties are so important to read the blocking scheme come up there in play Gary said here's a quarterback who's been taking his 18th snap ever that's inexperience and a spot you don't want an experienced Richard Walton out with a broken bone in his throwing hand that we saw week ago against UCLA so here's the major life Longhorns from the 25 motion from the backfield may have been a jump by Kansas State and he delivers the completion out to the 31 yard line to Derrick Lewis is tied in let's check the chilly starting lineup for Texas Octavius Bishop of mammoth left tackle have to try to protect the youngsters back side along with raised leg a scamp Adams and Humphrey Kwami Koval had a career game last week against UCLA with McGarity and Derrick Lewis who just made that last catch and in the backfield major Applewhite the young fellow who's taken over the controls and has completed his first passed the to Ricky's with him in the backfield Brown and Williams no bread as a young quarterback a new quarterback when you get in there you know the eyes of your football team are on you now let's forget about how tall he is I don't care if he's a 5 foot - you don't have to dunk the ball when you're a quarterback you have to throw the ball and major Applewhite will try to push and get calm himself then try to win over his team by his calmness and then lastly his offensive coordinator so he gets some good plays interesting here they they took the flow I think to give the youngster some confidence that he completed his first path and he was hot in warm-ups he made all the easy clothes second down along three here's the toss there Ricky Williams and he's knocked down for a loss and it's Darren Howard who was offside on the last play who makes the stop as we take a look at the defensive Kansas State and they're a good group you just saw Howard make that play at 11 sacks a year ago McIntosh Road Bobby Joe Bob Clemons round out the front for leading tackler Jeff Kelly and Oakes in Seminole all three are Butkus finalists and in the secondary and it's a good one always is it seems Jarrett Cooper at a touchdown last week Potter Chapman and these a very good Kansas State Wildcats second order for that second day we might have some work here all the time [Applause] the reason number 11s taken the snapchat quarterback for Texas if you didn't see our game a week ago Texas and UCLA let's take you back last week Richard Walton the senior and you see crunched on that the turf under he drive one more pass after that Gary trying to got it out he did he threw one more ball but you can see tried to brace himself fell right on that wrist and through one more wobbler here there he is right there it came to the game today I saw him kind of shadowing major throughout the whole warm-ups but I just don't feel that the reason if Texas loses this game is going to be because of their quarterback I really think he will calm down and play a good game he's been preparing for this type of game his whole life he went to 25 football camps when he was a youngster getting ready and you don't get recruited at a place like Texas and John mackovic if you're not accomplished it throwing the football and this guy is accomplished to throw the football I was impressed with him last week when I watched him in in warm-ups before the game and I think he will not be the weak link in this football team today last week he went three for five in mop-up duty after Walton went out with the injury and now making his first start it's a dream job you hope doesn't turn into a nightmare quarterback third down and four after the timeout and now the officials and put the ball back at the proper line of scrimmage either kicked or blown by the wind and now we're all set Ricky Williams and Ricky Brown a dual set behind Applewhite [Applause] for the defensive here they come in three and throws a shot complete for a first down after Ricky Brown the full-back playing pretty cool so far Mike Stoops that coordinated for this Kansas City D a Kansas State defense called the lynch mob will not sit back and just let things happen they will continue to bring people we talked to him yesterday he said we will try to go through the gaps we will try to make plays early in the game and we just won't sit back first down the 37 yard line [Applause] Ricky Williams Jeff Kelly made first contact and they've got help from a lot of his friends Richie's a marked man today you're talking about a big-time defense this team has been told no matter what they said stop tonight this defense for Kansas State has been told if they hold Ricky to under a hundred yards they will win the game you know and I've seen a lot they didn't say that publicly but a few guys let it leak out so there's the target use the exclamation point for these Detroit and down at 10 [Applause] in the middle that's good to the 41 yard line and Quantico Ville the big target makes the catch in some traffic lis to bring up third down and a long six yet to go 1035 to go first corner seven nothing Kansas State La Migra feel they're really happy with now he's come along as a receiver came to Texas actually as a linebacker defensive back type of player that so many injuries last year at receiver early in the season they moved into off Manson it's been a good move third down and six conversions to here they come after a boy on the run throws behind the first down near midfield to that one of the turf and diction so there and keep it away FY had to get because the linebackers came Shelley and Ximena both stunning up the middle to Texas and the big Texas offensive line could not handle it boy look out for this guy already too long punt returns for touchdowns and needs just five yards to break the all-time punt return yardage record you have an opportunity to do it because it's downwind this ball should travel far enough to outrun the coverage oh man to Stockton hit this thing all the way to the five Allen [Applause] turn 27-yard but return is my David Allen has sent me to States offense up at the 31 yard line when we come back [Music] let's take a look at this week's Marriott moments remember back to the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl of a year ago against Syracuse [Applause] Kansas State and Nebraska is what we've got here and this was a pass that Michael Bishop would love to have gotten back Nebraska the only blemish on the mark of Kansas State last year they went 11 and one and they still got to get by that team this year and it's in mid-november instead of early in the season that's coming up and they've got a countdown to that already here it's like d6 game with 56 days before they meet Nebraska hookup of about three how things have changed here in Manhattan used to be a tribal state you try to forget that date now they got it a red-letter day 56 more days to lead a game down at 7:00 Snider already the winningest coach in school history has coached in more games 107 and one more 68 than anybody else that's ever been here and put this program on the map Texas does a nice job swarming around him defensively led by middle linebacker doesn't he Renfro and Casey Hampton big number 64 they're on the inside it's gonna bring up a third down Mack Brown told me that the inside of that defense had done a good job last week as you look at the picture all records three and net anytime you see Kansas State up there with those names you know something good has happened not bad we're down and along for wide receivers the ship loads it and goes complete across the 45 Donnell McDonald again big elevate in front until a whole nother car arrived first Darnell McDonald headed big coming-out party in the Fiesta Bowl last year against Syracuse is also a huge coming out party I think Michael Bishop everybody had heard about Mike Michael Bishop but the improvement he made as ron hudson the offensive coordinator told us yesterday from the last game until the bowl game was huge first down just outside their own 45 yard line Kansas State by a touchdown 8:15 left in the first quarter Bishop quarterback draw again dancing around the middle positive yardage across midfield of the 49 given five he's got some quick feet well you could see already though Snyder's game plan emerging I think he really wants to showcase I mean they don't want to talk about the Heisman thing here and they know they're playing against Ricky Williams but so far the game plan has been set up for Michael Bishop I think that's the third quarterback draw of the game and short passes second medium I'll give it off the hexan a second boy he's bouncing off people today broke some tackles on the touchdown run and there got it near the 44 yard line this is very spirited out last week against UCLA not fitting their tackles missing plays they should think over running plays and giving a big place because of that they settled down to the second half but you don't want to wait too long when you're playing these quality teams you just get blowing out of the game and they're gonna measure the bishop says first down and Tom al-azhar equably agrees first down Kansas State I heard you already want touchdown leave [Applause] bill comes off as the hard-working which he is conservative which he isn't this offense is probably as wide open as any offense in college football it's a huge playbook and they'll be they'll run anything I mean you never know what angle they're coming from on this defense hi this office excuse me David Allen's checked into the backfield now at the tailback spot ampere Dixon got that first down quick snap here's Allen the great punt return Texas says they haven't they do wet and jammer who had a fumble recovery an interception last week as a mobile recovery here the reason David Allen does not see a lot of snaps with this offense is because of this right here he's a talented stop freeze the guy that got the turtle right there ended up with it but Aaron Humphrey made the play but that was not much of a plan that both should have been held on to it you wonder if you'll see much more Allen the Derrick Dixon is the solid 60 Racine so first down Texas after the terminal he Brown the fullback in motion and Ricky Williams off quite tackle flags down indicate a holding it's in the middle of the pile first time that Ricky Williams has gotten a little bit of breathing room picked up seven while we look at the flag let's check in with John Saunders in our New York studio right time now for the Burger King update Ohio State a little fake out here everyone gets fooled including the cameraman Michael Wiley those 21 yards for the touchdown the Buckeyes leaving it seven nothing Brad all right John same score here Kansas State on a long touchdown run on their opening drive and moments ago they had a pretty good Drive going to before the fumble the penalty walked off against Texas now we'll back it up to the 30-yard line talking back yesterday I said what to tell the guys at halftime after it looked embarrassing like a year ago he said whatever you guys did the first ener-d to be in a second - fancy whoa we're down 35 - three - UCLA last week and came back and they fairly respectable game throws hi for Cavill and this is the first time Apple watch Mathis creep himself off the turf Darren Howard and Joe Bob Clements the two defensive ends and birds back there they're known as the sax three line bags one two and three right out of here they move around this football field make people coat for them and they move so well the slowest Kelly number eight the middle linebacker is a four six second down and eight again they throw that way Williams and after the passes between six yard line got about six of it back it's still going to be third down a beer so far the matchup that I think Texas felt good about Octavius Bishop their best lineman blocking the best line of mineral for Kansas State Darren Howard has not been solid he's been running around Howard has the corner and putting pressure on Applewhite that's let's watch it because that is a key matchup for these Texas top speed right now is killing Octavia fish run the shotgun [Applause] wideouts for Apple white almost dropped the snap buys himself a little time long sideline pass to McGarrity and he had his hands on it but he's not Jeremie Trias butler and it's incomplete that was not a bad throw and a near completion great jeremy trees did is exactly what you teach order to do take the first spoon stay with them and keep running now if you get beat look at your man when he puts his hands up turn around teeth yeah you got away with one everybody here usually and on the ball and that was enough to do it you got a turn around and see the wall yeah this takes a great kick blocking team - not to mention Allen on the other end is a return man no problem here though Stockton hits another high one Allen might have another chance here from the 14 stumbles a bit on his own got almost ten on the return out near the 24 yard go behind the scenes of a nightly sports show where the real life stories happened don't miss the premiere of sports night it's coming up Tuesday 9:30 8:30 central time right after the season premiere of Spin City on ABC Sports afternoon here major Applewhite making his first start as a collegiate quarterback and has not played too badly so far is teamed down a touchdown here in the first quarter and here's his counterpart Michael Bishop burst out Kansas State to 24 fixin leaves inside got out near the fully taking off his feet by the andre-louis but he got six remember a few years back Brad when that Dan Conley from circa for those first guys that was Searcy where now it seems like if you don't last six years you're not taking advantage well a scholarship seem like they're on every team now Nixon missed all of ninety-six with a broken leg and had been granted an extra year of eligibility he's behind Goolsbee there's hits in over 24 second down and four the bishop looks to be changing things up as the line rots and delivers out goo McDonald again and that one's just easy picking so far today it seems like in front of Tony home is the corner back again the rap on microfiche was not a high percentage completion throw but you know this conference really isn't for him the 65% for the ball downfield but from what I saw of him yesterday and Thursday in practice of what I see of him today he is markedly improved in that area he's gone three times to McDonald and McDonald has caught all three of them including that one for a first down at the 39 McDonald's gonna have the day here I don't know if he's got a farm but he's got three catches Hickson dusty Renfro but not before he got out near the 45 yard line under five minutes in the four 7-nothing the Wildcats in front of the road on a 10 game winning streak their longest winning streak for this program since 1910 Dixon shared time his first couple of years in the backfield with Mike Lawrence who's the school's all-time rushing leader and now he's got his sights set on Mike's career rushing mark here off to a good start today second down and four just inside the 45 yard line the ship pumps watch wants to go deep on the side I think it hit me then he'll take it however you can break it up Saint Michael Bishop just made the cardinal sin mistake that you make as a little boy remember she do the outlook to the outside when you're looking to his right the defense is left yeah you might beat the corner but the free safety of that time for jammer is also looking to his left the ball wobbles a bit a little bit underthrown quitting jammer comes over and makes the play guy in the middle of the field right there is able to come you know the fields only 53 yards and back when I played they had those guys that couldn't really cover that muddy yardage but nowadays I'll street safe to speed up those 53 yards from the middle of field for the out and that one not quack it's way downfield that still not have been thinking now on the run and taken out of bounds and the 47 yard line a couple yards short of the first down that was another called play that time that was a quarterback troll 50-yard line you wonder if you could see me the way and I don't think they knew that fine I think I just think they're gonna punt this ball see him come out he's got great feet no question yet Texas defense is playing that quarterback draw right now Texas better get out there on their former turn team there's gotta be flags that's just gonna kill you by Kansas State long field goal or put it from the temperature team Brown is not going to be happy about because they never got on the field the defense never got off and their flags well you know Brent Mack Brown's gonna be unhappy but he should be unhappy with his staff in this instance I mean they had the long field to come across Kansas State had the short side line so they waited and waited it and hurried their team on when Texas tried to match up they had a longer run the wise move for the Texas staff in that and that point would have been to just keep their defense out there and once the decision was made by Kansas State and Bill Schneider they hustled out there and they were at the line of scrimmage and set so they did a great job getting their special team out there Bill Snyder stole a first out I agree illegal substitution on the receiving team five yards from the previous spot first down there Liz you see on the top of your screen here there they come in guys are still running in and on the far right of screen just outside guys hadn't got off the field that was the problem in too many men an illegal substitution Kansas State kind of quick kicks it there that's all the inner so a first down inside the Texas 49 now the drive stays alive on as gary said a stolen first down [Music] it's in trying to bounce out of the pile again this time he won't hurt Tony Holmes from the secondary hold not on top short gain second down and nine coming up just over three minutes left first quarter Brad Nessler Henderson our agency crew with you from Kansas a packed house about 42,000 they're going to add several thousand seats to the stadium on the far side and put in more sky boxes they will be up over 50,000 next year and every ticket sold and everybody in purple they love this team [Music] this is a happening in this part of the state of a Saturday afternoon the slam close to a first down to gavin three solution then every mark is three Wilkins may the tackle looks like he's a little bit short of the first down don't up next Saturday on ABC Sports a college football doubleheader in Game one except on the west coast you'll see Michigan State against Michigan or Wake Forest in Clemson that stay tuned at 3:30 Eastern USC takes on Florida State and will be in Nebraska for the Cornhuskers and the Huskies check local listings for the game in your area or what you might be able to get on pay-per-view fifteen and he's still John with the Texas sideline and man you talked about at the mention of a quarterback he's faster than Cade McNown this is rush of the game they've all been designed dusty Renfro is just now coming into your screen right there to you he's spying the quarterback but he needs a killers yeah it's finally watch this guy just out runs them 39 yards already Bishop as we showed you earlier at 556 yards rushing and nine touchdowns last year there's the first down story that's pretty bleak again for Texas named kept the ball on a Ricky Williams scene because they ever [Music] the state has made no mistakes with the exception of David Allen's fumble Bishop swatted down nice job defensively by cetera watered we've got a big hand in the way what Texas needs is some good play out of their defensive line other than Humphrey yes you're exactly right that was a good play up front but you know it's fun to watch the maturation of a young quarterback Michael Bishop they said last year when he was so so good last year at 11 1 record he was playing at about a 5 on a 10 scale now they said he's at a 7.5 they hope by the end of the year you'll be up about at 9 I want to do one of those 9 that's right here's a quick slant go in first and goal [Applause] you talk about staying with the pass McDonald on this one here he is out here he's gonna come inside a little slam passing you know what you're coming in I mean the receivers coming in on a slant you want to kind of ease it in there I tell you other quarterbacks were receivers running at you draw him a sponge when he's running away from you throw a rock squeezed every ounce of water out of it you can see in the red zone they're nearly unstoppable first and goal at the 5 the only that has stopped them this year has been penalty flags 14 of them last week in their lopsided win that was one thing bill Schneider wasn't happy about delay a game will back them up to a first and goal at the 10 now that's the only flaw they could find really in their two victories their opener they beat Indiana State 66 nothing and then 73 to 7 last week over Northern Illinois but that was the black mark on their performance the 14 penalty and Bill was really frank with us and he said with this tee by telling them the line the first two games there's no way they were going to lose I mean if they just go out there and play in these exhibition games and get ready for this game looks like they're ready for this game first and goal of the 10 here's some option trying to pitch him he just flat took it away from my coefficient that's being in the right place at the right time the strong safety makes a big play you know we talked about the Kansas State staff stealing a first down walk here Kyle Reese the defensive coordinator stolen safety blitz by McGowan number seven the right call at the right time that's right those coaches spend those 16-hour days there coming from the corner right here number seven he's got a little groove to call on at the right time Bishop does not account for the strong safety surprise oh and they get their second turnover that is the Texas thing and that stops another would be scoring marks I can do steak let's see of Texan they didn't done [Applause] loose again big pile up the Empire says Rock cats Texas gave it right you wonder how good the snap was this time Jared Cooper is the guy know he's got it he's got it clean with the helmet Jim Kelly puts his helmet right on the ball and Jared Cooper comes up with the fumble recover marks seminal also was right there headed for a bit and then Cooper ended up with it Matt keeps writing on that dad he's gonna have a dent in his pant I need another he's either gonna need another pan or another back in the pocket it goes and back to the offensive line of scrimmage go the Wildcats the 23 yard line so they get it right back just under a minute left in the first quarter from the shotgun they play fake it to Hickson and Bishop goes on his own about to Aaron I played against Cade McNown last week and coaches said you're gonna carry the ball more than Cade McNown so I'm gonna just stay at home and make sure that you're going over Gatorade before I got running over for the pot it is a hot day they'll be some of that consumed today among other things they'll consume here in man and it's supposed to be probably 87 degrees by halftime second down and eight here's the option off the plate the hits in the trail cartwheeled there behind jammer but he's got it first and goal a picture pick up a 16 they're not shy about running that option play able to play before this time they come up again from shotgun works all the way down to the 5-yard line how about Erik 10 yards of pop so far course you had a 44 yard touchdown in there 8 481 already and after the first quarter I mean I don't know if I've seen much dominance well I guess I have to here though they'll move it down to the other end were to the 1st and goal five we played one quarter and fourth ranked looting Texas seven other [Music] this is ABC Sports home of the fold Championship Series start the second quarter Kansas State seven nothing time for our Aflac trivia question this whit Kansas State's athletic teams are nicknamed the Wildcats what's the nickname of the town here and they have helped put this town on the map with our football program we'll give you the answer a little bit later on first and goal at the five bishop hands off the hit sit around on the inside Renfro is there again after a pickup of about two well you know that Texas defensive power Eastern defensive coordinator right now is going to try to dial up something and keep an eye on the quarterback Bishop I would assume Bishop will have this ball outside the pocket running look for some type of option or roll out then let's see how deep those tries to adjust to them [Music] we've also seen bishop on a quarterback draw several times already today second and goal at the tree here he is on the option keeps it goes down for a loss Texas played it beautifully they know was coming just like Garrett is sure good time they put their down linemen their tackles it was Cedric wooden on an outside rush everybody took it outside gap that time if Kansas they would have dialed inside they would have been right and everybody goes like this to the outside and says if you're going to run outside you're gonna have trouble everybody goes outside takes an outside gap boom there's the big play nice call by the defense only takes one guy to miss his block and Woodard made him pay as he got by Brian handling and now it's third and goal back at the 7th bishop throw the fade to the corner to McDowell [Applause] penalty marker demo but it's big interference on water here this one will stand seven yard scoring toss yeah I don't know I just wonder why a defensive staff I know you want to go bump and run but why you put a guy out there all by himself no help when you've got a mismatch out there that's just tough hump job for that corner they're gonna give him seven points one-on-one Joe Walker against Darnell McDonald battle six three he's right there good coverage poor technique does not come and look for the ball that's an easy throw you make anybody you can get fifty guys out of the stands that's really the only thing I'm shocked at is the efficient stick that long to talk about it but at any rate they finally do say touchdown see in that situation I think that defensive you got a place of meaning out public to give those guys some help [Applause] Marty gramatica in for the port after and he's got it it's 14 to nothing Kansas State has fumbled a couple of times today but when they get an opportunity down in that red zone they don't fumble very often and Bishop throws to his favorite receiver Kansas State 14 texas nothing well they say bill schneider controls just about everything at this university concerned with football and maybe more things but mack brown right there says i don't know if i have control of anything over here maybe a game ender sir this team is not ready to play the style of defense that we would almost do you told me yesterday that in the second Advocates UCLA we simplified it to 3d poses so the kids responded that we might be in for a toughie battle here today playing against this team 14 to nothing Kansas State we've already seen Bishop today throw a scoring pass and boy he was just phenomenal here he said earlier maybe it was a coming-out party in a Tostitos Fiesta Bowl last year against Syracuse but he was sensational both with his arm feet on the ground even again of that bold game and it was 35 to 18 with all the smoke had cleared boy would they love to go back to the Fiesta Bowl this year tell you one thing the ratings are going to be higher that's right and a lot of the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl Scouts are here the poll reps are your reps are here I was talking to one of them I was kind of kidding him saying you know when you called the travel agent ask for tickets to here's a kick and it's a deep one many kick return I knew I could talk right to dick right because I have to worry about the boys little guy with a big leg at a 65 yard field goal last week [Applause] and you might get another long-range shot before this one's over another Bowl coming they're pretty certain of that' they would love it to be going the festival is Championship Series this year that will have those first four days of 99 that's what gary Danielson buddy Texters trailing by two touchdowns ricky williams chronic he kept right back into the middle where I was waiting for they're fast he was pissed but it's a point of attack I mean Damian Macintosh made the play but at the part of the tech out here at the bottom you screen traffic's folks and the guys just won't let the ball come around the front row and just stop it you know you just stay in your lanes and stay patient boss coming back to you right now the bigger yet slower Texas offensive line cannot get Mickey Williams outside this dream to spend defense with you Williams five yards sucking down a does Williams in motion now sets up as a receiver Applewhite they go deep on the left side should be pass interference no yes I shot Carter got tangled up back there with Molly Cavill they look like he had a step on the deep out over there the ball was pretty well thrown and he went down to the heat pass interference looks like they entangled their legs that time left side of the screen there you see the little entanglement obviously nice work so that's a first down in Texas we'll take those first downs any way they can get them they only had one before that right there you know their first three possessions ten plays 30 yards one fumble this is the second first down of the game I don't think you can use half we haven't used the whole package against this campus thank you four wide receivers let's see if that was trying to spread out the defense to get it to Ricky we will find out first down from the 40 [Applause] Mike Kelly and marks seminal their tomatoes how well coach is Kansas State Texas tries to sneak on before people over four wideouts the Kansas State just keeps on two of their linebackers Kelly and Seminole come out with the nickel passage and matches it perfectly disrupt cleanup model that's right all three of those linebackers on the Butkus watch list only Michigan Notre Dame in Florida are the other schools that can make that claim with their entire line back in four mentioned Applewhite rolls and throws and he threw a strike close to a first down to Kwame Cavill good throw rolling to his left and throwing back against his body and that that one delivered right on the mark pick up a nine nice call by Greg Davis series does not feel confident in his pass protection kind of moves Applewhite out your let's it go to get some a patient in you measured Kwame Cavill coming on he really is he's just getting better and better every week and he he has become the go-to guy in this offenses receiver instead of he's a big target six to over 200 pounds third down in the yard this is where your all-american tailbacks going to get you a first down back in touch the first one there Ricky Williams on the bottom of the pile has been unable to find any kind of room to run he may have to measure this one too I'm not sure I don't think he made that maybe not the spot wasn't the greatest I'll tell you that much Penn State leading Pittsburgh longtime battle Washington right now in front of you why you will see the Huskies against the Huskers next week I think Washington is one of the surprise teams in college football this year also made a nice adjustment with their offense to put it in the left-hander's hands and let him do a little more and it's paying off so far woof that one's close that's good enough Ricky says I like making first downs but those third and inches and I hated for inches is no fun that's not even the nose of the football it's some other smaller body part yeah it sucked it on the end there Ricky Williams moving into some unbelievable company in the all-time rushing list of course he's got Tony Dorsett in his sights but he's going to pass several of those guys before this day's over if the Kansas State defense to 11 [Applause] on the shotgun of course tattoos with its own pulling through they give it to millions trying to stipple a little bit of room to work and he did it all on his own Jeff Kelly made the tackle that stiff-arms one of Ricky's best moves even though they were holding on to his jersey for dear life who made a positive gain out of it Ricky Williams has made a career getting yardage after the initial hit right I think he's going to have to realize that today because uh not a lot of clean runs against this defense that is just so much coming at everything will you call those yaks yard after God after contact yes people die on the yaks today from midfield second out of three laughs without dangerous past new dance [Applause] the dark Nunez maybe would have been better off to give up on that one well that's impossible to do you're right from hindsight but when you're going after you don't know what's going on this was one of the ones that know maybe a little smallish of a quarterback Applewhite lays the ball up Nunez tries all effort he could to get it and Jerry Cooper came hoping the nicely you know what they're gonna say no interception I think he did too they just waved it off and you can hear the reaction of wildcat fans here's another look this was this was easy catch Reyes is an easy call there wasn't any doubt in my mind whistles here's Burstyn here's the angle like that he had a nipple never touched the ground Texas maybe got a break there Jared Cooper who thought he had an interception has to step back into the defensive huddle third down meanwhile and a long three seventh playable just over ten minutes left firsthand grouping again Applewhite of the shotgun here comes the Blitz what hit as he throws intercepted stored in there after Applewhite waits for down here in how he was waited by the Sporting News football is the best defensive end in college football I could see why he's played like it today I mean Octavius Bishop is really not how it could be out here without pants on no one's touched it before Stockton to kick in David Allen back D Perkins estate no it's had a couple of nifty returns already today all-time garbage punt return on the leader to stay in history two scores already of plus 60 yards on the season let's see him get his hands on this one Stockton again got great hang time on Allen from the eight the first to miss might be watch it run the power here touchdown [Applause] one guy baby chip the enough right here foreskin even had time to jump his facemask and this one falls right with other Kansas State Drake returners like Chris candy Andre Coleman Mitch running that's on the and how about Burrell Switzer who we talked to last night a little low soiree we went to he and that's wreaths punt return touchdowns in his career and I said you've got a record that's about to fall bro and he says I wouldn't want it to go to anybody better than number 32 Allen for the touchdown has made up for his fumble hesitate 93 yard it's 21 to nothing Kansas State [Music] [Applause] [Music] the second-longest punt return of Kansas State histories given the Wildcats at 21 to nothing lead now and that guy's name all alone in the record books as a punt returner David Allen just went 93 yards and dramatic in out of kick Hodges Mitchell and Ryan Nunez back I know Paul Snyder is a good coach game coach that you can only prove this will probably not be with about 20 yards out of the end zone well earlier we asked you the Aflac trivia question Kansas State athletic teams as you know or nickname the Wildcats what's the name of the town that they play in if you've never been out of here maybe you wouldn't know it's there you good the little apple Manhattan as gary said when the bowl people were making their plans to Manhattan they might have thought of Broadway or New York not Manhattan Kansas but to this town in this area you talk about an area that gets fired up for a football Saturday Wow they were pumped up yes were they ever first down Texas now three touchdowns it's a spot they that's austerity way I got in two yards but Travis holes didn't let him go he was well this defense is geared around letting folks and Kelly and Seminole make the tackles they don't disappoint anybody I wonder whose might be quicker than Ricky Williams me he lines up about five yards deep has been a line back and when Ricky goes one way he goes that way too he is quick if your eyes at number eight he'll be doing a lotta action look at that total yard only foolish son [Music] to make the catch yes he did way McGarrity held on a couple 32 yards I think the Kansas State defense and Mike Stoops is willing to give teams the opportunity to do this because they commit a lot of guys to the run this is what Texas has to do they have to say I don't care if we're playing with a freshman in high school we have to throw the ball downfield of we just we're going to embarrass ourself we keep trying to throw the ball short you have to spread this defense out not just horizontally but vertically as well they dredged it a fine quarterback so far today's you said earlier he is not he's back to the roots of the day and he threw that one on a rope to Derrick Lewis first out pickup of a dozen now this guy can pluck matches between two right there boy does not really matter how tall you are you're the quarterback you got to be a playmaker and this guy is a playmaker understands the game or we'll see well enough throws through the lanes and gets it there the seniors on Texas team will they saw this young guy come in at his recruiting trip thought it was a frat party guy that took a wrong turn they said he can't be a football player closed it on hurry buddy got almost by Lamar Chapman from the secondary along with mark zimmelman a the tackle twenty yards for Ricky Williams but it's come on ten carries we talked about trying to stay with Ricky trying to carry the ball at least 30 times it's a little tough now 21 nothing Texas has to just say one drive in time lucky right throws like what sure who that was intended for was a crossing past at noon as if it was a deep slant in on the outside I really holding down the field this time outside wide gonna be on it's gonna be thinly air it is Lars to hold outside at the corner a lot of grabbing being done outside by those corners top of the screen wide receiver out there on the numbers watch try to get inside no no we've got the big hand on the Jersey I think the ball was thrown inside the Newman but not before the outside they'll take the penalty in the first down a second time they've gotten a first down by penalty well they're so aggressive Kansas State is so aggressive offensively in their play calling and defensively in their play calling that you're just going inside Iowa State fresh off the big win over Iowa Indiana surprising Kentucky deepest penetration of the day for the long-haul just inside to Kansas state court on first down intercepted that's it oh that one hurts way up here there is never a protection when an outside linebacker is not accounted for this is either on the quarterback not reading his hot properly or on the tight end of the tackle not blocking it properly no matter what somebody made a mental mistake there's a torrid turnaround right there a big turnover Wow so the main Robinson is a happy guy and Oaks got a major hit on the Texas quarterback another turnover goes back the Wildcats offense from the Twilight picks it last through the left side dusty Renfro Woodard Hampton they're all over there to make the stop just every time Texas get something going they turn around and give it back to Kansas State yeah and they just don't have the athletes to match up with this kid sooner or later you could give them the ball like this they're just going to keep popping big plays Bishop has been quiet again let's look for him to get involved by throwing the ball deep he's downwind now [Applause] era kicks it out to about the 33 your exclusive hope for primetime NFL Sunday 19 a spirits ESPN the Eagles and the Arizona Cardinals Irving friar and company against Jake Plummer in the gang and then on Monday night on ABC Sports Monday Night Football live at its new time 8:00 Eastern a Matt Smith in the Dallas Cowboys take on the New York Football Giants Sunday night and Monday night here on a ABC Sunday night on ESPN 6:15 remaining in the half 41 to nothing fourth ranked Kansas State looking all of that board ranking Bishop and wanted to go on now takes off pretty good-sized shot on the sideline from the Andre Lewis but you got a running quarterback that's a throw up to go all the way you got to hit the guy 17-yard pickup you gotta have good nation on defense one time this Texas defense has poor coverage they get burned the next time they finally cover someone and they lose containment on Michael Bishop it's tough to play defense because 11 guys have to be working together or you're gonna have a breakdown you said they do some on this series long you didn't know it to be a 17-yard was right right at midfield 601 left there's his rushing total already today drops back and throws his Lance tips by the linebacker Dustin Renfro they got a hand on it and it's incomplete you know when the quarterback for the opposition has more yards rushing than Ricky Williams things aren't going well yeah that'll get around to believe me Ricky Williams made the statement going into this game that his teammates were going to have to help him if he was ever going to have a chance for the Heisman he said we have to win nearly all of the rest of our games Plus have a good game here against k-state so far looks out on him ominous this guy looks like the Heisman candidate and he will be I'm sure considered but you gotta wonder if the kind of numbers you would need but I tell you what you talk about leave the club and being an MVP type of guy he sure fits the bill this one's incomplete as well they're looking for a flag and do not get one Chris butcher was there with Darnell McDonald interesting to watch this Kansas team that's such high expectations this year and well Schneider was a little concerned that those expectations would turn into two distractions Michael Bishop said distractions this program was built on distractions right he can handle it five straight bowl games this club or these Kansas State teams I should say have gone to 41 game winning streak against non ranked opponents at home and that includes now Texas non right today Ann's gonna bring up plumbing situations so three passes in a row that weren't the greatest there is a flag down now though in the Kansas State backfield another call intentional grounding on igano all intentional grounding on a knee through a bad ball there's a referee that didn't play much football in his career if he did he was a down lineman now you can't throw them all perfect they've had a lot of committee meetings today for some relatively easy calls I'll tell you that much this is their third one or fourth one Michael Bishop she also showed his ring finger that he hurt him a couple weeks ago and he has a little bit of a knuckle problem and some of those throws to get away from infinite down it doesn't make much difference look at a pot either way but your eyes but it's it's just the principle I hear you it's a design - play getting Michael Bishop out watch he's going to try to throw the comeback to the outside the ball just sails out hasn't he ever seen a bad throw before the ball was attended for Darnell McDonald that's a horrible fault James Garcia hustles out for his second putt of the day Hodges Mitchell wait notic for Texas I see it nice kick Mitchell I just Mitchell trying to get me act like David Allen it has a pretty nice return out to the 16 yard line a 12 yard return Michael Bishop pleading his case to no avail his team goes up by 21 thank the Wildcats lead Texas with 534 left in the first half as bill schneider brings his offensive troops around him on the sidelines and texas has been unable to get anything going on supporting their american tailback Ricky Williams held in check so far first down along in the backfield Roe is there so seminal they are just so rangy everybody wearing purple on that defense new Texas is losing by 21 points but there's a there the second-best team on the field right now this officiating crew they're struggling over the last right now they're so I say they're in last out of the three teams now we'll hear about that but well everybody's got a deep criticism five minutes left in the half okay second down [Applause] that's our AG they are interception and he goes 17 yards for the score have the wife got pressure from Damien Mackintosh number 77 just as he threw the ball he got hit was that he really able to follow through and probably threw the ball not where he was tempted to throw it kind of came off his hand that's the second interception he's had because of the rush inside forcing a bad throw they can beat you with defensive touchdown special team scores and on offense they've done it every way so far today grammatic his extra point is up and good and it is starting to be shades of last week against UCLA for the Texas Longhorns they are down 28 to nothing well you have to admit Kansas State is not just competing now against Texas they're competing against UCLA where the top part of the polls especially UCLA though they can stand out there and say it was 35 to 3 a week ago and we got lazy whatever and then UCLA got lazy Texas showed their pride and came back and played hard but right now k-state is saying we can match that Purdue apparently didn't have much trouble with Dante Culpepper today Louisville tasting Illinois that's a final see some of the other scores from across the country the winds not slowing down and neither is the Kansas State team they have scored on the 93 yard punt return the interception return for a score and then the running of Hicks it and the passing of Bishop there's really not a lot of option for Mack Brown at quarterback after major Applewhite its Adam Dunn is listed number two he's a true freshman has never even had a stem probably didn't even have much practice here probably kicked this one out of the stadium again he does he almost hit our guy with the parabolic mic down there the goalpost we've got a quick break here let's check in with John Saunders in our New York studios John coming up on bobbling halftime 98 although dazed scores and highlights three of the top five teams in action including number one Ohio State John is a very strong year for college quarterbacks this year several with key tests today all right it's all coming up on bobbling halftime 98 alright guys here it's 28 to nothing Kansas State just under five minutes left second quarter with gary Danielson I'm Brad Nessler nice to have you along with us here at Wagner field KSU stadium Manhattan Kansas first down Texas from its own ploy [Applause] Ricky waited there's no to hide for number 34 today Travis smokes with the tackle well one more look at the touchdown sorry mr. mrs. Applewhite but it's kind of our job here comes the rush inside there you can see what happens with the pass rush and the coordination of smart linebackers dude right between the top part of the circle on the eighth in the bottom part of the circle on the end did he never see him at all you think I think he was trying to throw it around him trying to fit it around him got hit just as he let it go and ended up going off target [Applause] and they throw on the it's looks like he's going to have a first down let's check in in New York with John Saunders again Brad apparently Missouri for the second straight year is not impressed by the number one team in the nation this time Ohio State Joe Germaine scrambles out of the pocket takes you towards the sideline gets popped there it comes loose and right into the hands of Carl Posey he scoops it up takes it the distance for the touchdown and Missouri has taken the lead on the Buckeyes Ohio State though is threatening [Music] [Applause] under four minutes in the half Texas with a first down I'd like to get something on the board before intermission Applewhite plenty of time this time throws incomplete Sivan fell down that time that was Jamel Thompson who lost his footing passes a minute for Thompson incomplete just as we talked about the coordination of the defensive for Texas the coordination for the officer finally the offensive line gets a stop holds off the pass rushing you have receiver stumble out wide everything seems to be a step behind and that's what that attacking defense can do to you you know you got guys coming at you from every angle you have to do something a little quicker than you want to and problems happen second at ten it's Kansas State Kelly's thinking about he backs out of it anyway on the sidelines you see where the closer guy was [Applause] that was that zone blitz again at k-state gran but vain Robinson wound up as a defensive tackle as you see McIntosh limp off the vein Robinson lined up as a defensive tackle then bailed out as a middle linebacker he got a pick by doing that earlier we haven't said much on the positive side for Ricky Williams have we today has been shut down completely timeout taken by Kansas State 3:45 left here in the first half it's all 4th ranked Kansas State right now leading by 28 [Music] Kansas State 28 to nothing over Texas and the Longhorns with a third and 10 coming up here for wide receivers for major Applewhite [Applause] the state brings the delayed blitz Applewhite delivers it I don't think it's going to be enough for a first down at the 40 yard line the pass complete three times last week against UCLA Texas had completions on third down and came up a yard short of the first down marker it just happened to him again you know and that is not really just the fault of a play design right there what it is is third and long I mean you're huger inviting a blitz in that situation defensive coordinators know that you have to throw hot and what happens is you come up and make a sure tackle which Kansas State does tackles very well you're not gonna pick up first out hold your breath folks David Allen's back and punt return formation stacked into King oh this one off the side of his foot and something gallon all have a chance at this one that's a good one [Music] susannah bounds at the 31 you're probably right didn't give any chance for a return only a 29 yard kick however and I Kansas State's got plenty of time to work with it's only a 29 yard kick but it's 69 61 yards better than the laughs that's true was in the end zone 69 yards closer to 55 remaining in the half there's the offensive unit with Michael Bishop number seven in the middle set to take the field and they have one timeout remaining to work with if it need be now you're thinking for mannequin yes you are I mean if you can get it to the 40-yard line you have a shot at get him to midfield you got a shot at you then got the width at his back and the give he might get an ungrammatical range right here on this lung first down picked up about 12 Eric talked about shifty I think he fits that category too quick feet in the hole and he's had a nice first half he's got over a hundred yards boy who's grammatica getting ready got his nuclear shoes on you really can't get too close to that foot it's you know yeah it's like kryptonite sure it's really it's scary first down at the 43 Hicks in over a hundred yards on the ground in the first half so we knew at tailback would have a big first half we maybe thought it to be Ricky Williams not Eric Hickson Bishop throws complete McDonald does a little dance around at the 45 and he's got a first down a pickup of about 13 he almost stepped out at the 47 yard line I bet he cut back in and got extra yardage this was inaudible by Bishop jam coverage stay with the route they call it a lack out instead of running the fade the receiver stays with this pattern even though it's bump and run coverage Joe Walker not very good at bump and run coverage well this would be a chip shot for gramatica if they made no more yardage here yeah he smiley says coach this one's too short yeah back then back up and take a penalty do something and now the officials are gonna say time out Kansas states we talked about Martine gramática and in dramatic fashion a week ago this was the final play the first-half 65-yard field they had about four yards to spare as you get another look at it maybe more than four and romanika pretty excited bought by his teammates the longest field goal in NCAA history without a chief he got mobbed so mad somebody hit him with a helmet in the nose and cut a bridge of his nose open but that football that he slept with that night the coach's safe he doesn't get to keep it because the NCAA says that at the end of the year Kansas State can make a trophy for him at the end of his career and give it to him that way or Martine can send $40 to the Kansas State athletic department to keep the football are you but can you believe that oh well hey those are rules right that's page 3417 of the NCAA rule book at any rate he was one happy kicker last week and he is a threat he with a Lou Groza Award winner last year he only missed one field goal during the regular season he had a bad fish to bowl he missed two there and promised to make up for it canceled his summer vacation to Mexico to work out on his leg and it is paid off so far this season well bill Schneider kind of was there we go it's about how I feel stay with me partner we got a long way to go at the 44 first down to 18 left but a bit left in this hand they faked the toss and come back to the slant of the guy offensive back and heads to the sideline out of bounds the 24 yard line McDonald kids not too bad either well he's come out his coming out party was de fiesta ball you could see the confidence last two games outscored in the first half 63 to three and you know the number 66 is kind of a scary number 63 points is a scary number two because the last two games Kansas State has won both of them by a margin of 66 points it's a magic number that Texas would just as soon put in the closet somewhere never happy here again picks it on the counter he pulled on Quentin thanks pals five warriors tackles I should be allowed to tackle I can get my hands on right not a good sign when your free safety probably's leave the team in tackles hear it going in the first half these folks have been waiting since the beginning of the season to watch their team play a respectable opponent they feel they've been slighted a little bit in the sacrament ratings they're ranked 20th the national polls leapfrog by one of the polls by UCLA this past week and now they're trying to put 35 on the board against Texas in the first half which would be a field goal better as far as margin than UCLA did last week when it was 35 to 3 after so and then and now Texas is gonna set doubt is going to start to creep in this Texas team because last week they came back away and everybody said alright Texas really found themselves in the second half but it may be that UCLA just said hey this game's over they lost their focus and and took it easy on this Texas defense so that's the way the game goes first and goal after the Hickson run he'll get the call again straight up and there it got to inside the three there's the ESPN us eight Today coaches poll Ohio State number one Florida playing Tennessee tonight Nebraska who will see you next week Kansas State and UCLA number five well you know after today if Missouri for you know the big 12 people are watching that one very closely can hold on and in Florida's got a tough one against Tennessee another shake up day that's for sure everybody jumped as Bishop takes it into the corner of the end zone it's a matter of who down there and the the pit jump first was it somebody in purple or somebody in white Sean Rogers is the guy that kind of reacted and hit it in to Randall Cummings that time the Center for Kansas State probably have a conference on this here dead bail prior to the snap we have defense offside by contact half the distance to the goal repeat first down you are correct sir that's exactly what happened they got one don't forget Valvoline halftime 98 Johnny Tata are waiting in about a minute and a half to bring it all the scores and highlights from the other games across the country second and goal just outside the one Eric head said not quite third and goal from about a foot away Anthony Hicks made the tackle on Hickson see where they spot it just inside the 1 I get the feeling that both teams would like to score in the last play of the half just to get to the locker rough I don't know if Texas wants a ball back that bad either Goolsbee will be the full-back eric Hickson already has one touchdown today a long-range 1 of 44 yards he's done some of the damage to get him down close on third and goal Texans up his jump Bishop keeps hitting stores dan bishop [Applause] from a yard out [Applause] that's his fourth rushing touchdown of the year Milford Stevenson this time the left tackle comes down real hard on Sean Rogers k-state have been running right up in the middle and this time the left tackle just slam down a bishop with those quick feet ran the sneak wide worked perfectly Romantica in for the point after to try to make it 35 to nothing and he does they put that new building down there the end zone get those ticket windows from hockey arenas so mack brown for the second week in a row sees a high-powered opponent have his team buried at intermission now the question is Gary said will be will they show the kind of character and the non quit attitude that they had last week against UCLA or will Kansas State just keep a right on rollin you know what's funny in it this has always been one of my pet peeves as a player is I sometimes you tell the coach he goes I don't want you to quit I want you to compete keep playing hard and you go to the coach coach I'm already playing hard like I start as a kid they're better than we are you know they're faster they're bigger and I can try as hard as I want the guy's going to run right by me you do some of the reading and you hear that some of the coaches say that tackling is 90% determination and 10% technique I say coach I'm real determined I ain't just think in a closed I'm determined I'm not getting close enough to use my technique coach your man and good a kick those two guys back at the goal line might as well take a knee now probably yeah the guys in the in the on the hill have a better chance here it goes with the Kryptonite shoe it's out of the back of the hansom it's a one hopper into the crowd this time his fifth kickoff fourth touch back the last week in the first half against UCLA Texas with just three points they were encouraged by the fact that they actually won the second half if you want to put it that way but you can see there was a dramatic difference in how they played the final two quarters last week against the Bruins but that's yet to be determined if they can get done against the Kansas State defenses that I think quite frankly is quite a bit better than UCLA is there's no doubt about that this is the bet one of the top defenses and I don't think they're quite as good Kansas State is not as good as UCLA's receivers but I think they match up pretty close a quarterback I think this Candice day offensive line is probably and even the defensively disability and just go play a little bit save Ricky Williams for him today Kelly made first contact Jeff Kelly all over the place Darren Howard helped him out a pickup of a yard and Ricky Williams has 13 carries for 19 yards and on the day of those rushes six times he's been held to no gain or negative yardage to pick up those statistics well you know I said he had to carry the ball 30 times and if you give the tailback the ball 30 times today Ricky's going to be in trouble wrinkled it hurts he might have 80 yards on 30 carries before the days over you can't keep running the tailback when you're behind 35 to nothing final play of the half Williams got about two or three to bring them to a club Kansas State Wildcats squad right now Texas in a huge hole again than if they have become all too accustomed with Michael Bishop and his troops out in front 35 to nothing passing yardage but that wouldn't matter at this point 17 to 7 in first downs & a starling field position it's always been a problem when you play can to stay because of their kicker coming in the average starting position for opponents there's a 21 yard line in Texas is right about on that today at four [Applause] the white waits till the last moment trying to go to McGarity incomplete in and out of his hands his sky shot Carter was there to help bump it
