LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) – Frank Mason III scored 21 points and Perry Ellis added 12 as No. 4 Kansas beats Harvard 75-69 in a sloppy game on Saturday.

Devonte’ Graham also had 12 points for Kansas (6-1).

Freshman reserve Weisner Perez had 15 points, Tommy McCarthy added 11 and Zena Edosomwan had 10 points and 11 rebounds for the Crimson (2-6) in their third straight loss.

Midway through the first half, freshman Cheick Diallo pulled up and hit a mid-range jumper to put Kansas up 15-12. That jumper started a 17-4 run for the Jayhawks. Kansas scored only four points in the final 6 minutes of the first half.

The Jayhawks came out of halftime scoring four points in less than 40 seconds, but fell flat offensively after that, going a full 2 minutes without scoring. In that time, Harvard cut Kansas’ lead from 13 to nine, and subsequently got within four after Evan Cummins dunked.

MANHATTAN, Kan. (AP) – Wide receiver Cody Cook led Kansas State to a pair of touchdowns as the emergency quarterback, Morgan Burns returned a kickoff 97 yards for the go-ahead score and the Wildcats beat West Virginia 24-23 on Saturday night to become bowl-eligible.

Taking over for the injured Joe Hubener, Cook ran for a touchdown and hit Deante Burton with a 77-yard scoring strike to help the Wildcats (6-6, 3-5 Big 12) win their third straight game.

Most importantly, it gave Kansas State six wins and its sixth straight bowl berth.

Wendell Smallwood ran for 141 yards and a touchdown for West Virginia (7-5, 4-6), but he didn’t have the ball in his hands with the game on the line. Instead, quarterback Skyler Howard was stopped by Charmeachealle Moore on fourth-and-2 at their own 46 with 2:33 left to turn over the ball.

The Wildcats picked up enough first downs to essentially run out the clock.

ATHENS, Ga. (AP) – Dean Wade scored 17 points, including a go-ahead jumper with 4.1 seconds remaining, and Kansas State edged Georgia 68-66 on Friday night.

Wade made two jumpers in the final minute for Kansas State (6-1). Wesley Iwundu had 14 points and Kamau Stokes had 13 for the Wildcats.

Yante Maten had 20 points for Georgia (3-3), which led by 12 points in the first half. Kenny Gaines had 17, including 13 in the first half.

Mike Edwards’ strong offensive rebound and follow shot of a missed hook by Maten gave Georgia a 63-62 lead. Following two free throws by Iwundu, Maten’s inside basket gave the lead back to the Bulldogs.

Trailing 65-64, Kansas State called timeout with 1:13 remaining. Wade’s jumper with 56 seconds remaining gave the Wildcats a 66-65 lead. Georgia’s Mike Edwards sank one of two free throws for a 66-all tie, but Wade answered with the short baseline jumper.

J.J. Frazier missed a last-second 3-pointer for Georgia.
