3 on Kansas State's first drive of the second half. Schwinn had 21 carries—far more than he or Snyder had envisioned—for 32 yards. Sproles scored on a 12-yard run with 8:22 left to put Kansas State up 20–19, after Marshall punter Klint Rose muffed a snap and Kevin Huntley recovered at the Herd 44. But Chris Royal returned the kickoff 31 yards to the Marshall 40. Ten plays later, Gochneaur threw the winner to Rader and added a 2-point conversion pass to Josh Davis. Kansas State's last drive came after Marshall's Nick Kelly missed a 45-yard field-goal attempt with 1:27 to go. Schwinn ran for a 1-yard touchdown that put Kansas State up 7–0 but undid his early success with fumbles that led to two touchdowns by the Thundering Herd. Bobby Jordan intercepted Gochneaur's pass on the first play after Schwinn's touchdown keeper, and Schwinn's 22-yard pass to Jermaine Moreira gave the Wildcats first-and-goal at the 10. But on second-and-goal from the 9, Schwinn pitched the ball straight to defensive end Johnathan Goddard, who returned it 84 yards for a 7–7 tie. "It's heartbreaking", Kansas State center Nick Leckey said. "It's just so frustrating, because you're right there -- and then mistakes happen." After Joe Rheem's 42-yard field goal put Kansas State up 10–7, Schwinn fumbled as he was sacked by Jamus Martin. Reggie Hayes recovered at the Marshall 45, and the Herd converted with Gochneaur's 9-yard touchdown pass to Darius Watts for a 13–10 lead. After Ben Lewis missed the conversion, Martin recovered Meier's fumble at Kansas State 40 and Kelly's field goal put Marshall up 16–10 at the half.
