Cardiac Cowboys find a way to win again to keep playoff dreams alive

AMES, Iowa -- In the fourth quarter of yet another dramatic Oklahoma State rally, change-of-pace quarterback J.W. Walsh weaved through the Iowa State defense before slicing across the goal line.

After flipping the ball to the ref, Walsh put his index finger in front of his mouth to shush Jack Trice Stadium. The crowd, however, was already silent, acutely aware of what was unfolding.

The Cyclones led for 57 minutes Saturday.

But the Cardiac Cowboys were on top for the only three that mattered.

For the fifth time this season, eighth-ranked Oklahoma State came storming back from a second-half deficit, defeating Iowa State 35-31 to move to 10-0.
