John Hubert scored three times en route to 66 yards on 14 carries, while Tyler Lockett made two receptions for 73 yards and a touchdown for the Wildcats (11-1, 8-1 Big 12).

Kansas State will get the BCS bowl bid despite ending the season tied with Oklahoma atop the Big 12 thanks to its 24-19 win over Sooners in September.

The Longhorns (8-4, 5-4) got a big performance from Case McCoy, who amassed 314 passing yards and two touchdowns while subbing for David Ash, but it wasn't enough to secure a win.
