Kansas State created a scoring opportunity early in the first quarter with a blocked punt and recovery by Jonathan Alexander, who set up the Wildcats at the TCU 20. Two plays later, Thompson hit Nick Lenners with a 21-yard touchdown pass right over the middle.

TCU got on the board on a 10-play, 76-yard drive, with all 10 plays on the ground. Duggan and Sewo Olonilua combined for eight of the rushes, including Olonilua's 8-yard touchdown run early in the second quarter.

Thompson then found Wykeen Gill for a 13-yard touchdown pass to cap a nine-play, 74-yard drive and give the Wildcats a 14-7 lead. Jonathan Song's 36-yard field goal cut the lead to 14-10 at the half.

A Blake Lynch 21-yard field capped the opening drive of the second half as Kansas State extended the lead to 17-10.
