NORMAN, Oklahoma – The OU offense got off to a hot start Saturday, but Kansas State surged back before the Sooners were finally able to secure a 42-30 win.

The Sooners (5-3, 3-1) jumped out to an early 21-0 lead, scoring touchdowns on their first three possessions for the first time this season. Landry Jones connected on two touchdown passes to Ryan Broyles and one to Dejuan Miller.

Meanwhile, the OU defense held the Wildcats to negative yardage on their first two offensive drives, and the Sooners seemed primed to ride to an easy victory.
