Kansas State powered past Colorado 24-14 behind Joe Jackson's dominant three-touchdown performance at Bill Snyder Family Stadium. The Wildcats never trailed, opening the scoring in the first quarter before the Buffaloes tied it just before halftime on Micah Welch's short run. After a pivotal Rodriguez field goal early in the fourth quarter, Jackson sealed the victory with his third rushing touchdown of the day, a 17-yard burst with just 2:37 remaining.
