Overview

• Redshirt freshman Baylor Hayes went 23-of-36 for 219 yards and a touchdown with no interceptions in his second start in place of Kirk Francis.
• Kicker Seth Morgan hit four field goals, including a 47-yarder, as Tulsa built a 16-3 halftime cushion and controlled the early tempo.
• Tulsa's defense limited Oklahoma State to three first-half points and 117 yards, aided by long, clock-eating drives of 15 and 16 plays.
• Oklahoma State's Zane Flores totaled 270 yards and scored on a 5-yard keeper to spark a late push that ended with Gavin Freeman forced out at the 10.
• The loss dropped the Cowboys to 1-2, extended a prolonged skid that drew 'Fire Gundy' chants from fans, and prompted Tulsa coach Tre Lamb to call it a statement for his program.
