Texas Tech defeats Houston 35-11

It was another dominant performance by the Red Raiders to move to 5-0 on the season.

Behren Morton threw for 345 yards and a touchdown. Running back J'Koby Williams added 107 yards and two touchdowns on the ground.

Texas Tech totaled 552 yards of total offense to just 267 for Houston.

Cincinnati defeats Iowa State 38-30

In the biggest game of the weekend in the conference, Cincinnati picked up a statement win at home.

The Cyclones' secondary was banged up and quarterback Brendan Sorsby took advantage with some big plays downfield. The story of the day for the Bearcats, though, was their run game as they averaged eight yards per carry overall. They were led by running backs Evan Pryor and Tawee Walker, who ran for 111 yards (and two touchdowns) and 89 yards, respectively.

Rocco Becht threw for 314 yards and two touchdowns for Iowa State.

Baylor defeats Kansas State 35-34

The Wildcats were leading 31-17 heading into the fourth quarter when Baylor stormed back.

Baylor's kicker, Connor Hawkins, connected on a go-ahead 53-yard field goal with 31 seconds left in the game. Kansas State had a chance to win before a 56-yard field goal was blocked as time expired.
