Colorado beats Kansas State 27-24 in OT on Wilson’s TD pass to Charlie Williams

Boulder, Colo. (AP) — In overtime, Isaac Wilson threw an 11-yard touchdown pass to tight end Charlie Williams, leading Colorado to a 27-24 victory over Kansas State on Saturday. Kansas State had previously defeated the Buffaloes, snapping a five-game losing streak. With only seconds left in regulation, Blake Barnett threw a 3-yard touchdown pass to Garrett Oakley, but Colorado's defense held firm, only allowing a field goal from Kansas State in overtime.

Isaac Wilson had an exceptional performance in his fourth collegiate season, contributing 185 passing yards and the game-winning touchdown. Kansas State's Dillon Duff made his first start and was promptly replaced by Barnett after the Wildcats repeatedly went three-and-out on their opening possessions. Colorado secured the overtime coin toss and opted to play defense, stalling the game at the 7-yard line.

Kansas State capitalized on the turnover, scoring first with a 47-yard touchdown by JaQuail Smith, who broke a 7-7 tie. The game was tied at 14-all at halftime, with Kansas State adding a touchdown and a field goal in the second half.
