Had Kansas State taken advantage of a few early opportunities Saturday against No. 19 Oklahoma, maybe things would have trended in a different direction. Maybe. But the Wildcats didn’t, and by the time they made adjustments, it was far too late. The result was perhaps the low point of the second Bill Snyder Era, a 55-0 loss that marked the first time K-State (3-3, 0-3 Big 12) has been shut out since 1996. Oklahoma jumped to a 7-0 lead, then gave K-State a couple brief opportunities to climb back in the game. Joe Hubener missed Deante Burton on what would…

We’re pitching those guys away.” They…
