NORMAN, Okla. (AP)—Landry Jones passed for 294 yards and four touchdowns and DeMarco Murray scored three times to help No. 22 Oklahoma hold off Kansas State for a 42-30 win Saturday night.

Jones was making his fifth career start and first since Heisman Trophy winner Sam Bradford announced his career with the Sooners was over because of a shoulder injury.

The redshirt freshman completed 26 of 37 passes as Oklahoma (5-3, 3-1 Big 12) jumped to a quick 21-0 lead and hung on while Kansas State (5-4, 3-2) twice closed to within five points in the second half.

Two of Murray’s touchdowns came in the fourth quarter, on a 6-yard reception and a 3-yard run, allowing the Sooners to hang onto the lead.

Oklahoma stopped Kansas State on downs at the K-State 41 with 4:10 left and Oklahoma’s Quinton Carter intercepted a pass from Grant Gregory at the Sooners 2 with 42 seconds left.
