At Bill Snyder Family Football Stadium, the Cowboys struggled to find their rhythm throughout the game. The offense was unable to convert any red zone opportunities into points and finished with zero touchdowns. Oklahoma State's passing game saw them complete only 45 percent of their attempts for a total of 163 yards and two interceptions. Their rushing efforts were stifled as well, gaining just 54 yards on 30 attempts.


The defense had its own set of challenges and did not manage to sack Kansas State's quarterback or secure any interceptions during the contest. Penalties were relatively low for both teams; however, Oklahoma State incurred four penalties totaling 35 yards.

Special teams had limited impact on changing the momentum for Oklahoma State. The punting unit averaged nearly 38 net yards across six punts with two landing inside the twenty-yard line but failed to significantly shift field position in favor of the Cowboys.


Kansas State capitalized on their opportunities throughout each quarter, scoring consistently while keeping Oklahoma State scoreless. They amassed an impressive total of forty-eight points against a struggling Cowboys side that could not muster any scoring plays.
