Of course, there had to be some late-game drama. It just wasn’t enough for Mike Gundy to rip off his shirt and lay down in the middle of the field this time Central Michigan was in town. Fortunately for OSU, the only national headlines to come out of this one surround its fourth-year quarterback and his huge first half.
No. 12 Oklahoma State defeated Central Michigan 58-44 thanks in large part to a historic first half from Spencer Sanders and six-straight touchdown drives by the Cowboys offense. But the Chippewas didn’t lay down and the Cowboys cooled in the second half to make for a more competitive game than the home fans would have liked.
