Oklahoma State Cowboys score 48 points in losing effort
By Rodney Haltom sports EDITOR

The Oklahoma State Cowboys scored 48 points in a losing effort as Texas Tech scored 56 points to defeat the Aggies Saturday at Boone Pickens Stadium. The Red Raiders (7-4, 5-3 Big 12) bounced back from their previous loss to Colorado, while the Cowboys (3-8, 0-8) extended their losing streak to eight games, remaining the Big 12’s lone team without a conference win.

Tahj Brooks ran for a 1-yard touchdown with 6:12 left, giving Texas Tech a lead it never surrendered. He capitalized on Drae McCray’s 45-yard kick return, which allowed the Red Raiders to start the drive on their 47-yard line.

The Cowboys saw their chance to tie the game spoiled as Jacob Rodriguez recovered a fumble in the end zone as Texas Tech extended its lead to 56-42.

Texas Tech quarterback Behren Morton completed 35 of 50 pass attempts for 366 yards and four touchdowns, while Brooks had 28 carries for 133 yards and three touchdowns. Brooks also caught nine passes for 65 yards and a touchdown.

Ollie Gordon II led OSU with 15 carries for a season-high 156 yards and three touchdowns. He also caught three passes for 30 yards and threw one pass to Rashod Owens for 27. Maealiuaki Smith completed 26 of 36 pass attempts for 326 yards and only one interception on the final drive.

Finished with OSU 508 total yards while Texas Tech had 540 total yards.
