Kansas State left no doubt in Lawrence. The Wildcats dominated Kansas 42-17 in the 2025 Dillons Sunflower Showdown, extending their rivalry win streak to 17 straight and reasserting full control over the state. After a shaky start and an early Jayhawk touchdown, Avery Johnson and the Wildcats caught fire — rattling off 21 unanswered points behind explosive plays and relentless pressure. A muffed punt recovery by Ralph Ortiz, a pair of Avery Johnson rushing scores, and a 78-yard strike to Jayce Brown sealed the deal in the second half. The defense was ferocious, forcing four turnovers and holding Jalon Daniels and the Kansas offense in check all night. Johnson finished with 231 passing yards and 4 total touchdowns, while Jayce Brown exploded for 160 yards receiving — including the third-quarter “dagger” that silenced the crowd. Kansas State now moves to 4-4 overall (3-2 Big 12) and continues its dominance in one of college football’s longest-running rivalries. Key Stats: Avery Johnson: 231 yards, 2 passing TDs, 2 rushing TDs Jayce Brown: 4 REC, 160 YDS, 1 TD K-State Defense: 4 Takeaways, 4 Sacks Final: K-State 42 | Kansas 17 The streak lives on — 17 straight for the Cats in the Sunflower Showdown. 🎙️ Watch the full reaction, highlights, and breakdown on Locked On Kansas State Locked On College Conferences, Basketball & More 🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnCollege Follow on Twitter: https://x.com/lockedonKState Follow the show on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3HhcfyjaoLGxYjsL1KmSZM More Coverage from Christian Rauh: https://blueprintsportsnetwork.com/ #KansasState #KansasStateFootball #KansasStateWildcats #NCAA #CollegeFootball Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! 5-Hour ENERGY Enough with boring, flavorless caffeine, it’s time to give your caffeine a flavor upgrade with 5-hour ENERGY®️ shots.

#CollegeFootball

It’s Sunflower Showdown week, and the stakes couldn’t be higher. After a rocky start to the Big 12 slate and a season already hanging in the balance, Kansas State enters Lawrence knowing one truth — a loss to Kansas would change everything. In this crossover episode between Locked On Kansas State and Locked On Jayhawks, Christian Rauh and Derek Johnson break down every angle of this rivalry game — what it means for recruiting, program perception, and the future of both head coaches. Topics Covered: Why this isn’t just another rivalry game — and what’s truly at stake for Kansas State’s program identity. The ripple effects of losing Dylan Edwards and how Joe Jackson has reignited the run game just in time. How Avery Johnson’s legs could decide the game — and the wild stat that shows K-State’s record when he carries 10+ times. Why Kansas State’s defensive scheme might finally be finding its rhythm — and why turnovers could swing this one. The historical pattern that’s doomed Kansas in recent Sunflower Showdowns, and how discipline could be K-State’s biggest advantage. The role special teams could play in another rivalry classic. This matchup has all the ingredients: momentum, pressure, pride, and legacy. If Kansas State wants to stay bowl-eligible, protect its dominance in the state, and keep control of the recruiting narrative, this is the one they must win.

Jerome Tang brought the heat at Big 12 Basketball Media Days, and he didn’t hold back. The Kansas State head coach called PJ Haggerty the best point guard in America, Abdi Bashir the best shooter in the country, and the best athlete in college basketball — doubling down on his belief that this team is special. Is it too much hype… or exactly what Kansas State needs to bounce back after missing the tournament? Christian Rauh breaks it all down, from Tang’s viral quotes to the deeper psychology behind his leadership style. Then, we shift into the rest of Media Day takeaways — the tone of the locker room, player chemistry, Matthew Driscoll’s “simple but sophisticated” offense, and how this staff rebuilt the Wildcats around maturity, buy-in, and leadership. It’s belief. It’s culture. It’s K-State Basketball, and Tang is betting big.

It looks like Kansas State will once again have to take the field without Dylan Edwards in Lawrence. Chris Klieman made it clear this week that Edwards hasn’t practiced and “if he plays, it’s a bonus.” So what does that mean for Avery Johnson, the Wildcats’ offense, and their chances to keep the Sunflower Showdown streak alive at 17 straight wins? In today’s episode: 🏈 Segment 1: How K-State’s offense adjusts without Dylan Edwards – What Klieman revealed about Edwards’ health and practice status – Why Joe Jackson and Devon Rice could be key – How Avery Johnson’s legs and the offensive line must carry the load – The growing gap between K-State’s pass blocking and run blocking — and what must change – Can the Wildcats still create chunk plays without their speed threat? 🔥 Segment 2: Rivalry stakes — and what’s really on the line in Lawrence – Chris Klieman’s “execution over emotion” message heading into KU – Why this might be the most dangerous Kansas team he’s faced – The streak, the pride, and what losing this game would mean for the entire season – Bold talk on whether we’ve already seen the last of Dylan Edwards in a Wildcat uniform – Avery Johnson’s leadership test: can his toughness fuel the roster? 🏀 Segment 3: Jeff Mittie and K-State Women’s Basketball at Big 12 Media Days – New faces, same standard: building chemistry with an entirely new roster – Why Mittie believes this group already “has the standard” – The rise of Taryn Sides, Izela Arenas, and Nastja Claessens – A brutal non-conference slate built to simulate March pressure – Early prediction: this team can still dance in March Question of the Day: How confident are you heading into Lawrence? Drop your number (1–10) in the comments — and tell us what you expect from Jeff Mittie’s new-look squad this season.
