11:46 AM EST - Right now it is cool and foggy with a tempature of only 55 degrees. However, the fog will break and the temps will rise to the low to mid 80's as the game goes on.
11:39 AM EST - Still, this game Texas Longhorns - Kansas State Wildcats Live does not look like it will be a complete blow out. Texas has an excellent pass defense and if they can contain Waters, they will have a chance to win.
11:33 AM EST - Texas is going to need to play a flawless game to have a chance to beat Kansas State. They have been unable to stop the dual-threat quarterbacks so far this season and Kansas State has a great one of those in Jake Waters.
11:24 AM EST - Tyler Lockett leads the Wildcats with 485 yards and 4 touchdowns on 35 catches. Curry Sexton has 36 catches for 412 yards and 2 touchdowns. Zach Trujillo is another target, but he only has 9 receptions for 163 yards and one touchdown.

11:06 AM EST - The next two games were big blowouts of UTEP (58-28) and Texas Tech (45-13). Last week, Kansas State went into Norman and upset the Sooners 31-30. A five yard pick-six by K-State's Danzel McDaniel, a blocked extra point, and two missed field goals (including a chip shot) were missed by Michael Hunnicutt.
11:02 AM EST - Kansas State comes into this game at 5-1 overall and 3-0 in the Big 12. They crushed Stephen F. Austin 55-16 in week one before needing a big comeback against Iowa State the following week to win 32-28. Perhaps, they were looking ahead to their next game against Auburn on Thursday night (9/18) where they lost 20-14 in a very good showing for them. That left the Wildcats at 2-1.
10:56 AM EST - Swoopes has two favorite targets in John Harris and Jaxon Shipley. Harris has 40 catches for 607 yards and 6 touchdowns. He caught a season high 9 passes for 147 yards last week in the win over Iowa State. Shipley has 44 catches for 452 yards, but has not registered a touchdown yet this year.
10:49 AM EST - Swoopes will need one of his running backs to step up, but that does not appear likely. Malcolm Brown has 103 carries for 396 yards and 4 touchdowns, but his highest total for the season in a single game is 78 yards, which he did against Oklahoma. Johnathan Gray has 345 yards and 2 touchdowns on 77 carries with a season high of 82 yards against North Texas in the opening week.
10:45 AM EST - Swoopes has clearly taken a step forward in his last two games. He has gone 51 of 80 for 655 yards with 3 touchdowns and 2 interceptions. He has also run for 145 yards and 2 touchdowns on 25 carries.
10:41 AM EST - The Longhorns reached 3-4 last week with a thrilling 48-45 win over Iowa State. Nick Rose hit a 21 yard field goal as time expired to send Texas to 2-2 in the Big 12. Tyrone Swoopes went 24 of 36 for 321 yards with a touchdown and an interception. He also ran for 95 yards and a touchdown on 14 carries.
10:37 AM EST - The Longhorns beat North Texas 38-7 in week one before losing 41-7 to BYU and 20-17 to UCLA the next two weeks. They rebounded on September 27 to beat Kansas 23-0, but dropped the next two games to Baylor (28-7) and a close loss to Oklahoma (31-26) in the Red River Rivalry.
10:34 AM EST - Texas enters this game at 3-4 overall and 2-2 in the Big 12 under Charlie Strong, who is in his first season with the Longhorns.
