STILLWATER — Demarco Jones made a potential game-saving play just five minutes into Saturday’s game.
During Oklahoma State’s 41-31 victory over Texas Tech, the Red Raiders started quickly, setting the pace with an 11-play, 75-yard touchdown drive. Then they nearly got the ball right back with a surprise onside kick that Tech was able to recover, but Jones calling for a fair catch saved the possession.
A 6-foot redshirt junior from Booker T. Washington, Jones was able to call a fair catch because the Tech kicker didn’t kick the ball into the ground, instead flopping it straight into the air.
