Kansas St. 55 - 24 Texas Tech (Final)

If you've been following the Big XII this year, you won't be surprised to learn that K-State scored 42 points in the second half to pull away for a 55-24 victory.  This is the fifth week in a row that the UCFC has been decided in a Big XII game, and the winning team has scored at least 48 points every time.  I don't know how they get anyone to bet the under on these games.  Today's over-under line was 60, and the teams combined for 79 points.

So K-State wins the UCFC for the first time in its history, and the Wildcats run their record to 1-6 in UCFC games.  They will defend the title next week at home against Oklahoma State.  If they can win that game -- and the three games remaining after that -- the Wildcats will probably play for the national championship.

As for Texas Tech, they had two good wins over WVU and TCU, and they looked to be in good shape at the half today -- but KSU's quality told in the second half, and Texas Tech's defense simply fell apart.  The Red Raiders' UCFC record falls to 17-13, but Tommy Tuberville appears to be making progress down in Lubbock.
