How It Works
BYU Cougars vs Oklahoma State Cowboys — November 25, 2023
34–40
About This Game
BYU's explosive first half suggested a comfortable victory was in the offing. The Cougars' defense forced an early interception while the offense methodically marched the ball downfield—field goals from Alex Hale staked them to a 6-0 lead, and Jake Retzlaff punched in a touchdown to make it 7-6. Eddie Heckard's interception return for a touchdown followed by Keelan Marion's one-yard run extended the advantage to 24-6, putting BYU firmly in control heading into the half.
But Oklahoma State had other plans. Ollie Gordon II became a force of nature on the field, pounding the football into the end zone repeatedly as the Cowboys mounted a relentless comeback. What had been a comfortable 18-point lead began to slip away as Gordon scored four more times in the second half and overtime. A Will Ferrin field goal with just seconds remaining in regulation forced the contest into overtime, where both teams traded scores in a desperate back-and-forth. Gordon's fifth touchdown in double overtime proved decisive, though not before a critical fumble recovery sealed Oklahoma State's remarkable victory.
