<p>The No. 21 Kansas State Wildcats dominated the visiting <a href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-football/teams/miami-hurricanes" class="sbn-auto-link">Miami Hurricanes</a> Saturday afternoon behind a four-touchdown performance from quarterback <a href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-football/players/36403/collin-klein" class="sbn-auto-link">Collin Klein</a>. Klein threw a touchdown pass and ran for three more scores on 22 carries in the Wildcats' 52-13 victory over the Hurricanes.</p>
<p>Kansas State had nine players combine to rush the ball an astounding 60 times for 289 yards and six touchdowns in all. Running back <a href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-football/players/76559/john-hubert" class="sbn-auto-link">John Hubert</a> ran 19 times for 107 yards and a touchdown, while <a href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-football/players/134219/daniel-sams" class="sbn-auto-link">Daniel Sams</a> carried three times for 47 yards and two scores of his own.</p>
<p>Kansas State's running attack was so dominant that Klein had to throw just 11 passes against a Hurricane pass defense that gave up 441 passing yards to <a href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-football/players/113047/chase-rettig" class="sbn-auto-link">Chase Rettig</a> of Boston College just last week. Klein completed nine of those attempts for 210 yards, an average of 19.1 yards per attempt.</p>
<p>Miami's defense again struggled mightily, as they allowed 499 yards of offense to the Wildcats to go along with their 52 points. The Hurricanes carried 34 times for 208 yards against the Eagles last week, but could only muster 43 yards on 29 carries against Kansas State's defense. Standout freshman running back <a href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-football/players/159411/duke-johnson" class="sbn-auto-link">Duke Johnson</a> was held to just 22 yards on seven carries after going 135 yards on seven carries against Boston College, including two touchdown runs of greater than 50 yards.</p>
<p>Miami quarterback <a href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-football/players/114387/stephen-morris" class="sbn-auto-link">Stephen Morris</a> was eventually pulled in favor of freshman Ryan Williams, who threw a touchdown pass to <a href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-football/players/114395/clive-walford" class="sbn-auto-link">Clive Walford</a> for the Hurricanes' only touchdown of the afternoon.</p>
<p><b>Box Score Hero: </b>Collin Klein, who threw for 210 yards and a touchdown and ran for three more scores.</p>
<p><b>Rankings Ramifications: </b>Nobody ahead of Kansas State lost as of the time the game ended, but with many teams still to play, it's possible the Wildcats could move up in the rankings with a loss or a poor performance from one of the top-20 teams.</p>
<p><b>But Did They Cover?: </b>The Wildcats easily covered the 7-point spread.</p>

<p>Quarterback <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-football/players/36403/collin-klein">Collin Klein</a> totaled three touchdowns - two on the ground, one through the air - in the first half of Kansas State's game against the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-football/teams/miami-hurricanes">Miami Hurricanes</a>, leading the No. 21 Wildcats to a 24-6 halftime lead. </p>
<p>Klein completed 2-of-3 passes for 26 yards and ran for 23 more on the game's opening drive, and got the scoring started with a one-yard touchdown run. After a fumble by Miami running back <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-football/players/114391/eduardo-clements">Eduardo Clements</a>, Klein rushed for another score to put the Wildcats up 14-0. </p>
<p>A <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-football/players/36665/jake-wieclaw">Jake Wieclaw</a> field goal brought the Hurricanes within 14-3 at the end of the first quarter. Kansas State responded with a field goal of their own, and after a Miami punt, Klein threw a 27-yard touchdown pass to <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-football/players/134222/curry-sexton">Curry Sexton</a> to extend the lead to 24-3. </p>
<p>Miami kicked another field goal on their last drive of the first half to cut the lead back down to 18 points. </p>
<p>Klein is 6-of-7 for 98 yards and a touchdown at halftime, and also has 15 carries for 35 yards and two scores. For the Hurricanes, <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-football/players/114387/stephen-morris">Stephen Morris</a> is 10-of-12 for 142 yards, but has gotten almost no help from his running game or defense. Miami has 14 carries for just 19 yards, and they have given up 217 yards of offense to the Wildcats in the first half after surrendering 537 yards to Boston College last week. </p>

<p>The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have claimed offensive lineman Julian Vandervelde off waivers from the Philadelphia Eagles, according to Aaron Wilson of <a href="https://twitter.com/RavensInsider/status/241958388748148736" target="_blank">The Baltimore Sun</a>.</p>
<p>Tampa Bay did not have to waive any players to make room for Vandervelde on their roster.</p>
<p>Vandervelde, an offensive guard, played his college ball at the University of Iowa. He was a Second Team All-Big Ten player in 2010, as well as a four-time Academic All-Big Ten player. Vandervelde was drafted by the Eagles in the fifth round of the 2011 NFL Draft. He appeared in just one game last season.</p>
<p>The news comes on the heels of two-time Pro Bowl offensive lineman Davin Joseph suffering a season-ending left patellar tendon injury. Joseph has underwent surgery Tuesday and was placed on the injured reserve list. </p>
<p>In his absence, the Bucs had been searching for some offensive line help, and it appears that Vandervelde fits the bill. Vandervelde is more likely to provide line depth than start.</p>

<p>Tiger Woods started his second round at the Deutsche Bank Championship with two birdies to move to 9-under and within three strokes of leader Rory McIlroy's lead. Woods then bogeyed the third hole and is now four strokes back of the lead at 8-under.</p>
<p>Woods finished with a 6-under par 64 in the first round on Friday and trailed Seung-yul Noh by three shots entering the second round of play. Noh shot even par on Saturday and is one stroke ahead of Woods, tied with Jason Dufner and Chris Kirk in third place.</p>
<p>McIlroy has finished with matching 6-under performances on each of the first two days of the tournament and holds a two stroke lead over second place Ryan Moore, who finished 7-under on Friday and 3-under on Saturday and is now 10-under for the tournament.</p>
<p>Bryce Molder, Louis Oosthuizen and Jeff Overton are in a four-way tie at 8-under with Woods.</p>
