MANHATTAN, Kan. (AP) --- Avery Johnson threw for 192 yards and three
touchdowns, Rodney Price Jr. added a 75-yard rushing score, and Kansas State
beat Washington State 34-7 on Saturday.
The Kansas State defense has yet to allow an offensive touchdown this season in
two games --- as the lone Cougar touchdown came on a 47-yard interception
return by Jaylen Thomas to end the first half.
Price ran for 105 yards on 13 carries, while Josh Manning, Joe Jackson and
Brandon White all had receiving touchdowns for Kansas State (2-0). Manning had
10 receptions for 97 yards. Johnson was 22 of 34 with two interceptions, and he
rushed for 78 yards.
Price started the first drive of the second half with his long scoring run.
Kansas State finished with 295 yards on the ground compared to 101 for the
Cougars.
Caden Pinnick was 9 of 20 for 65 yards for the Cougars (0-2). Kirby Vorhees had
45 yards on the ground.
Wendell Gregory had five tackles and two sacks for Kansas State, which has
allowed just three points this season in 120 minutes.
The game was delayed due to lightning for almost an hour after the halftime
break.
The takeaway Washington State's offense looked rough for the second straight week after scoring just 10 points against Washington. Johnson had flashes of brilliance for Kansas State, but he also showed some spots of needed growth. The interception at the end of the half gave the Cougars some life on a bad mistake.
