No. 13 BYU held off an upset bid from Oklahoma State with a dramatic 38-35 win on Friday. Cougars quarterback Jake Retzlaff connected with Darius Lassiter for a 35-yard touchdown with 11 seconds remaining for the game-winning score.

Oklahoma State quarterback Alan Bowman found Brennan Presley for a 6-yard touchdown to give the Cowboys a 35-31 lead with 1:13 remaining. Then Retzlaff led BYU on an eight-play, 75-yard drive to keep the Cougars season intact. 

BYU is one of three Big 12 teams — with Iowa State and Texas Tech being the others — that have yet to lose a game in Big 12 play.

Retzlaff finished with 218 passing yards and two touchdowns and ran for 81 yards on the ground. He ripped off a 27-yard run on the final drive that set BYU up inside Oklahoma State territory and led to the go-ahead touchdown two plays later.

Oklahoma State running back Ollie Gordon ll put together his best outing since rushing for 126 yards and three touchdowns in a Week 1 win over South Dakota State. Gordon came into the week with less than 80 yards in his first three conference games, and finished with 16 carries for 107 yards and two touchdowns in the loss.

BYU (7-0, 4-0 Big 12) will head south to face UCF next Saturday. Oklahoma State (3-4, 0-4) will travel to Waco, Texas to face Baylor on the same day.
