Kansas State Wildcats achieved a decisive 31-7 victory over the Arizona Wildcats in a non-conference match, with standout performances from quarterback Avery Johnson, who threw for two touchdowns and rushed for 110 yards. Running back DJ Giddens contributed significantly with 86 rushing yards and a touchdown, while transfer Dylan Edwards made a notable impact with a 71-yard punt return touchdown. Arizona's quarterback Noah Fifita struggled, posting 268 passing yards but no touchdowns and one interception, while star receiver Tetairoa McMillan had 138 yards receiving without scoring. The loss marks Arizona's first under head coach Brent Brennan but does not affect their conference record as it was a pre-scheduled non-conference game. Kansas State, ranked No. 14, will face BYU next week, while Arizona prepares for their upcoming Big 12 matchup against Utah.
