Rice ran for 170 yards and a touchdown as Rutgers rolled over
Kansas State 37-10 in the Texas Bowl for its first bowl win ever.
Kansas State, under first-year head coach Ron Prince, fell to
7-6 with the loss. Rutgers improved to 11-2 and gave the Big
East a second resounding win in its first two bowl games (South
Florida dumped East Carolina 24-7 in the PapaJohns.com Bowl).
The Wildcats made the game interesting when they rallied from
a quick 14-0 hole to get within 14-10 in the second quarter.
But the Scarlet Knights didn't let them get any closer.
On the first play of the second half, Quintero Frierson returned
an intercepted pass 26 yards for a touchdown. After Kansas State
failed to make a first down on its next possession, Rice needed
just two carries to take Rutgers 68 yards for another touchdown
and a 31-10 lead.
Kansas State dropped to 6-7 in bowl games while Rutgers improved
to 1-2. |
