Kansas State defense rises to top challenge vs Baylor
Kansas State aims to pressure No. 15 Baylor as defensive end Jordan Voelker and safety Tysyn Hartman reflect on a 28-24 upset of Miami and a key goal-line stand. Coach Bill Snyder notes the Wildcats played fast yet disciplined, despite lapses that produced big plays like Lamar Miller’s 59-yard run. Baylor quarterback Robert Griffin III leads a high-powered offense, with Griffin efficient and dangerous, while Kansas State seeks continued improvement and another late stand to deter scoring.
