    Vaseline Posted on

    PROVO, Utah – Coach Mike Gundy and the Oklahoma State Cowboys will try to avoid a four-game losing streak on Friday night when they take on the 13th-ranked BYU Cougars at LaVell Edwards Stadium.

    The Cowboys (3-3, 0-3 Big 12) have dropped their first three regular season games: 22-19 to Utah on Sept. 21, 42-20 to Kansas State on Sept. 28 and 38-14 to West Virginia in October. 5.

    Coach Kalani Sitake and the Cougars (6-0, 3-0) have already surpassed last season’s 5-7 mark with conference wins against Kansas State, Baylor and Arizona.

    OSU’s Korie Black came up with his third interception of the year, ending a strong BYU drive inside the red zone.

    Retzlaff rolled to his right and threw into traffic, where Black stepped in front of the throw and took it inside the 10. Black returned the pick to the OSU 24.

    The game remains tied at 14 with 3:55 to go until halftime.

    Ollie Gordon II came open out of the backfield, caught a pass and charged toward the end zone, impeding a BYU defender on his way to the end zone.

    The touchdown tied the game at 14 at 7:55 of the second quarter.

    It was Gordon’s second touchdown of the game and the most complete drive led by quarterback Garret Rangel. He threw 43 yards on the drive.

    OSU saw its momentum quickly dissipate with an overthrow of Garret Rangel.

    BYU’s Tanner Wall intercepted the pass just past midfield and returned it 47 yards to the 1-yard line. On the next play, LJ Martin powered his way into the end zone for a touchdown and a 14-7 lead.

    Rangel had an open receiver, but overthrew Ayo Shotomide-King, straight into Wall’s hands.

    Former walk-on Parker Robertson already set a career high in tackles in a game, but then ended BYU’s third possession with an interception.

    Robertson made his first career start in place of the injured Trey Rucker and has six tackles to his name so far. He chased down a deep throw by running back Hinckley Ropati on a trick play.

    It was the first interception of Robertson’s career.

    OSU found itself in a third-and-short situation, but quarterback Garret Rangel was sacked when he tried to scramble, leading to an OSU punt.

    Rangel had a screen pass knocked down to Ollie Gordon II and then completed a throw to Ayo Shotomide-King at second.

    The match remains tied at 7.

    After consecutive incompletions, BYU was forced to punt, leaving the game tied at 7.

    OSU’s Brennan Presley called a fair catch on the OSU 12.

    BYU moved the ball well on the ground and relied mainly on LJ Martin, who had 26 yards on four carries on the drive.

    Oklahoma State running back Ollie Gordon II turned in his longest run of the year — by far — with a 50-yard touchdown run to tie the game at 7 at the 9:42 mark of the first quarter.

    After throwing an incompletion on the first move of the drive, starting quarterback Garret Rangel responded with a 16-yard run on a called QB keeper. From there it was three straight Gordon runs.

    Facing a third-and-1, the Cowboys lined up with Gordon next to Rangel in the shotgun, but shifted several players, with Rangel going under center. He took the photo and handed it to Gordon who went to the right. He broke a tackle and outwitted the Cougar defense the rest of the way.

    The TD run was good for more yards than Gordon has had in four games this season.

    Redshirt sophomore Garret Rangel will start at Oklahoma State’s quarterback Friday night at BYU.

    Seventh-year senior Alan Bowman had started all six games before Friday but was benched in two of the previous three games. OSU coach Mike Gundy avoided announcing a starter when he spoke to the media earlier this week.

    This will be the fifth start of Rangel’s career, although three of those came after Spencer Sanders was injured in 2022 when Rangel was a true freshman.

    He also started the season opener in 2023, when OSU was experimenting with its three-quarterback rotation.

    Starting with a 50-yard pass from Jake Retzlaff to Darius Lassiter, and ending with a short touchdown run by Retzlaff, BYU took a 7-0 lead on the game’s opening drive.

    BYU went 75 yards on six plays, with Retzlaff throwing for 56 and rushing for 19.

    OSU will be without its leading tackler, safety Trey Rucker, who did not travel with the team to Provo, Utah, for Friday night’s game against BYU, the report said.

    According to Robert Allen of PokesReport.com, Rucker is reportedly dealing with a leg injury suffered against West Virginia.

    In addition to Rucker, the Cowboy defense will be without center safety Dylan Smith and backup defensive end Jaleel Johnson, according to Dave Hunziker on the Cowboy Radio Network. Hunziker said Parker Robertson and Lyrik Rawls are expected to start in the secondary.

    The Cowboys could have a few veterans back in the mix with the return of right tackle Jake Springfield and linebacker Justin Wright, although the involvement of either is unknown.

    Backup quarterback Zane Flores also did not travel to Provo after midweek surgery on his lower leg that will keep him out for the entire season.
