PROVO, Utah – Jake Retzlaff threw a 35-yard touchdown pass to Darius Lassiter with 10 seconds left to lift No. 13 BYU past Oklahoma State, 38-35 on Friday night.

Retzlaff threw for 218 yards and two touchdowns for the Cougars (7-0, 4-0 Big 12). He also ran for 81 yards and a score. Lassiter had a season-high 129 yards on six catches, and LJ Martin ran for a career-high 120 yards and two touchdowns.

Oklahoma State (3-4, 0-4) has lost four straight games. The Cowboys took the lead on Alex Bowman’s 6-yard pass to Brennan Presley with 1:13 left. That meant a limit of 17 turns that lasted almost 8 1/2 minutes.

Bowman also caught a scoring pass in the second half. Ollie Gordon II ran for 107 yards and two touchdowns and caught a TD pass for Oklahoma State.

Cowboys starting quarterback Garret Rangel left just before halftime with an injury.

BYU trailed at halftime for the second time this season before scoring on consecutive drives in the third quarter to take a 28-21 lead.

The Cowboys got within 28 when Bowman caught a 16-yard pass on a trick play to open the fourth quarter.

The takeaway

Oklahoma State: The Cowboys rediscovered their dormant running attack, racking up 269 yards and two touchdowns on the ground. The inability to consistently stop BYU’s offense negated these gains.

BYU: An uncharacteristic flurry of turnovers and sloppy tackles put the Cougars in tough spots for the better part of four quarters. It nearly undercut BYU with a total of 473 yards on offense.

Survey implications

A dramatic win will likely allow the Cougars to rise in the AP Top Poll on Sunday.
