Saturday’s 38-35 upset of then-No. 6 Texas drew some conference and national recognition for Oklahoma State.
OSU quarterback Taylor Cornelius, who completed 23 of 34 passes for 321 yards and three touchdowns, while also rushing for two scores, was recognized as the Big 12 Offensive Player of the Week, a Manning Award Star of the Week and was named to the Davey O’Brien “Great 8” list for his performance.
Punter Zach Sinor shared the Big 12 Special Teams Player of the Week honors with Kansas’ Gabriel Rui. Sinor averaged 45.0 yards on four punts. His 57-yarder in the fourth quarter pinned the Longhorns at their own 2-yard line and helped set up the game-clinching touchdown.
