In an unusual Big 12 encounter just three games into the season, Oklahoma hosted Kansas State in Norman in a battle of ranked teams (the Sooners at No. 5 and K-State at No. 12).

The Sooners drew first blood on a 28-yard field goal by Patrick O’Hara in the opening quarter to take an early 3-0 lead.

Pinned deep in their own territory early in the second quarter, Sooner quarterback Landry Jones fumbled and it was recovered by K-State on the OU one-yard line. One play later, the Cats were in the end zone and had taken the lead, 7-3.

Oklahoma added another field goal in the second quarter to match one by Kansas State, as the Wildcats held on to a 10-7 advantage at the half.

The Sooners mounted an 88-yard touchdown drive in the third quarter to take a 13-10 lead, but they couldn’t stop K-State on the defensive end, yielding two touchdown drives to the Cats in the fourth quarter, which was good enough to pull off the road upset, something that happens very infrequently over OU when the Sooners are playing at home.

Oklahoma added a fourth-quarter touchdown of its own, but it wasn’t enough in falling to the visitors 24-19.
