No. 9 Oklahoma St. beats No. 16 Baylor 36-25 in B12 rematch

WACO, Texas -- — Even as Jaden Nixon stumbled forward and had to keep himself from falling down, Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy knew no one was catching the speedster.

Nixon's 98-yard kickoff return to open the second half started a flurry of 39 combined points in the third quarter, and the ninth-ranked Cowboys beat No. 16 Baylor 36-25 on Saturday in a rematch of last year's Big 12 championship game.

No. 25 Kansas State holds off Texas Tech 37-28

MANHATTAN, Kan. -- — All it took was one play for Kansas State quarterback Adrian Martinez to set the tone against Texas Tech.

And that play was the first of Saturday's game — a 57-yard run that quickly put the Red Raiders on their heels.

"Explosive plays are a big stat for us," said Martinez, who scored on an 18-yard run on the ensuing play. "It goes along with turnovers and a couple other key factors. It definitely helped us."

Card to Worthy connections lead Texas over WVU 38-20

AUSTIN, Texas -- — Hudson Card passed for three touchdowns, including two to Xavier Worthy, to lead Texas to a 38-20 win over West Virginia on Saturday night.

Card, who has started three straight games but may be replaced next week week if freshman Quinn Ewers returns from a clavicle injury, finished with 303 yards passing. Ewers had earned the starting job before the season and started the first two games before he was hurt.

"I think over the past few weeks he's earned a lot of respect," Texas coach Steve Sarkisian said. "To me, and our team, it doesn't feel like we are playing with a backup."
