The Oklahoma State Cowboys have advanced to the Big 12 Championship Game after a thrilling double overtime win over BYU on Saturday. Led by quarterback Ollie Gordon II, the Cowboys put up an impressive performance, with Gordon II scoring five touchdowns in the game.
The game was close throughout, with neither team able to gain a significant advantage. BYU had the lead for most of the game, but Oklahoma State was able to tie it up late in the fourth quarter. In the first overtime, Gordon II scored on a two-yard run to put the Cowboys ahead. BYU responded with a touchdown of their own, sending the game into a second overtime.
In the second overtime, Gordon II took over. He scored on a four-yard run to give the Cowboys the lead, and then added a five-yard touchdown pass to seal the victory. With his five touchdowns, Gordon II set a Big 12 record for most touchdowns in a single game.
The win was a huge boost for Oklahoma State, who had been struggling in recent weeks. The Cowboys had lost three of their last four games before Saturday’s victory. Now, they will face off against Iowa State in the Big 12 Championship Game.
It was an incredible performance from Gordon II, who has been one of the Cowboys’ most consistent players this season. He has thrown for over 2,000 yards and 20 touchdowns, while also rushing for over 500 yards and 10 touchdowns. His five touchdowns on Saturday were a testament to his versatility and ability to make plays when his team needs him most.
Oklahoma State will now look to carry their momentum into the Big 12 Championship Game. With Gordon II leading the way, they have a great chance of winning their first conference title since 2011. It should be an exciting game, and one that will be remembered for years to come.
