The Cowboys drops to 7-5 on the season after a 24-19 loss to West Virginia.
The game started slowly with 3 straight punts. WVU would strike first following a bad punt. They would run just 1 play and score from 36 yards out to take a 7-0 lead. Then each team would punt twice on the next 4 drives combined. The Cowboys would finally break through and score a TD to start the 2nd quarter. Oklahoma State would add a field goal before the half to take a 10-7 lead going into the locker room.
West Virginia would come out firing in the 2nd half by starting it with an 80-yard touchdown drive to jump in front by the score of 14-10. They would then force the Cowboys to punt and WVU would find the end zone again in just 2 plays after the punt. OSU would kick an FG to cut into the mountaineer lead. The Cowboys would get into the end zone on their next drive, but a failed 2-point conversion kept them trailing 21-19. The West Virginia Mountaineers would add a field goal to their lead and that would be all the scoring in this game. The Mountaineers would defeat the Cowboys in Stillwater 24-19 ending the Cowboys’ home winning streak.
