Kansas State's shutout win over Arkansas put many in the Heart of America on notice but a week late KSU got a notice of their own after Kansas beat them 34-12.
For the Jayhawks, this was a fairly important showing because KSU had already shown themselves to be a force to be reckoned with.
Louisville remains atop the MAC after another convincing victory this weekend, shutting out Ohio 51-0.
The Cardinals have yet to allow a try in conference play this season, having given up just three penalty goals while scoring 196 points in three games.
Several newer players got some time against Ohio and the defensive effort was still impressive.
In what might be a bit of a surprise result, Clemson edged Tennessee 27-26 over the weekend in SCRC action.

Big doings in the Liberty Conference as league-leaders Fairfield were upended by Iona in the NCR D1 conference.
The 24-16 victory put Iona at 1-0 and dropped Fairfield to 3-1 and opened things up in the conference.
Bowling Green took a big step in the Mid-American Conference with a 27-15 defeat over Western Michigan Saturday.
