MANHATTAN, Kansas (Kansas State Athletics) – Despite trailing by seven points midway through the fourth quarter, Kansas State battled back to outscore (4/6) Iowa, 15-7 in the final five and a half minutes, to collect the 84-83 upset of the Hawkeyes at Bramlage Coliseum on Thursday night.

The Indians won at Derby in overtime to kick off the season, 26-23, the first win in what has grown to a 11-0 season.

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — A push by top Republicans in Kansas to punish party officials who backed an independent candidate for governor is shining a spotlight on an internal rift that could hinder GOP leaders’ efforts to steer the state to the right over Democratic Gov. Laura Kelly’s objections. Many Republicans blame independent state Sen. Dennis Pyle’s campaign for Kelly’s narrow reelection victory Nov. 8 over three-term Republican state Attorney General Derek Schmidt. But five hard-right lawmakers said in a Facebook statement this week that GOP “establishment manipulations” were the culprit and denounced the state party’s chair. While Republicans nationally are unsettled by ex-President Donald…

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (AP) — Being a backup quarterback can be a lonely job, except for this season in the Big 12. The QB turnstiles have been active, and Kansas State’s Will Howard and West Virginia’s Garrett Greene are among those who have thrived. It’s only going to get busier for Howard, who will start in place of the injured Adrian Martinez when Kansas State plays at West Virginia on Saturday as the 19th-ranked Wildcats try to close in on a possible berth in the Big 12 championship game. “Will’s going to be the guy. It’s his football team,” Kansas State coach Chris Klieman said.…

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes was missing his top three wide receivers in practice Wednesday because of injuries and illness, and the situation might not be a whole lot better when Kansas City visits the Chargers this weekend. JuJu Smith-Schuster remained in the concussion protocol after taking a helmet-to-helmet hit from Jacksonville safety Andre Cisco in last Sunday’s win over the Jaguars. Smith-Schuster remained on the turf for several minutes before he was helped to his feet and off the field with help from teammates, and it’s unlikely he will be cleared to play any time…
USD 383 school board members approved a nearly half million dollar purchase to replace the field turf and goalposts at Bishop Stadium Wednesday night, with tensions flaring over how what wording should be included in the end zones. The debate centered on whether or not “Indians” should be replaced in one of the two end zones with either “Manhattan” or “Ogden.” Board member Brandy Santos revealed she believes since the board’s current makeup supports keeping all Native American imagery at MHS, no changes should be made to the scripts in either endzone. Santos admitted at Wednesday’s meeting she hasn’t seen…
