    Kansas State Football vs. West Virginia: Live Score Updates

    Kathleen William Posted on

    The Kansas State football team has a chance to build on last week's road success and compete with Big 12 leaders Brigham Young, Iowa State and Texas Tech with a trip to the Eastern Time Zone on Saturday.

    The 17th-ranked Wildcats (5-1, 2-1 Big 12) travel to Morgantown to face West Virginia (3-3, 2-1) in a nationally televised night game at Milan Puskar Stadium after they won late against Colorado last week, 31-28.

    Should they prevail against West Virginia, which suffered its first conference loss last week at home to Iowa (28-16), it would give the Wildcats back-to-back road wins for the first time since 2022.

    K-State running back DJ Giddens leads the Big 12 in rushing with 786 yards, while West Virginia split its yards among three backs – running back Jahiem White (398), quarterback Garrett Greene (382) and running back CJ Donaldson (378). Wildcat quarterback Avery Johnson has completed 61.7% of his passes for 1,103 yards and 11 touchdowns, while Greene has thrown 1,267 and eight scores with 57.3% accuracy.

    Avery Johnson hit Jaydon Jackson twice, for 24 yards and then 60 for the score, giving K-State a 10-3 lead with 21 seconds left in the quarter.

    The drive took just 26 seconds and two plays to travel 84 yards.

    West Virginia answered Kansas State's field goal with one of its own when Michael Hayes blasted one through from 44 yards – the same distance as the Wildcats – to tie the game 3-3 with 52 seconds left in the first quarter.

    The scoring drive was six plays, 49 yards, 2:11.

    K-State's drive stalled at West Virginia's 26-yard line, but Chris Tennant managed to sneak his 44-yard field goal attempt into the right upright and give the Wildcats the advantage with 3:03 left in the period to give us a 3-0 lead in the first quarter.

    The Wildcats' drive, following an interception by Jack Fabris, covered 37 yards in 10 plays and lasted 5:16 minutes.

    Kansas State gets the ball back when Garrett Greene's pass from Traylon Ray ends up in the hands of Wildcat safety Jack Fabris.

    The Wildcats took over at their 37-yard line with 8:19 left in the first quarter.

    Kansas State's defense holds up early in the game, but the Wildcats come up a yard short on their first possession and are forced to punt.

    West Virginia had good field position after a short punt and took over at the 32-yard line with 10:43 left in the first quarter.

    West Virginia wins the coin toss and gets the ball early in the game, meaning K-State gets it early in the second half.

    The weather shouldn't be a problem this evening, with a game time temperature of 63 degrees with clear skies and no wind. The temperature should drop to around 50°C by the end of the game.

    According to a report from the Kansas State Radio Network, K-State starting right offensive tackle Carver Willis did not make the trip to Morgantown and will not play tonight. Junior Andrew Länging, who plays primarily as a backup right and left defender, is likely to take Willis' place, and sophomore John Pastore is also expected to play.

    Tight end Brayden Loftin still hasn't recovered from a leg injury that sidelined him the last two games.
