Kansas State Wins Rate Bowl Against Rutgers

Kansas State Wildcats secured a thrilling 44-41 victory over Rutgers in the Rate Bowl, overcoming a 34-17 deficit, which Coach Chris Klieman attributed to great resolve and leadership from both seniors and younger players. Sophomore running back Dylan Edwards shone with 223 total yards and three touchdowns, demonstrating his potential as a key player for the future. Klieman thanked the dedicated K-State marching band for their 20-hour journey to support the team, highlighting the strong fanbase present at the game. The victory not only ended the season on a high note but also provided momentum for next year, especially after a challenging regular season. Edwards' standout performance, alongside contributions from other young talents, indicates a promising future for the Wildcats as they aim for a successful next season in the Big 12. The win also marked the end of a superstitious concern regarding alternate uniforms, as Klieman humorously declared the curse 'dead' after the victory.
