10 Impressive Stats from Oklahoma State’s Win at West Virginia

The Cowboys extended their win streak with a 48-34 road win over the Mountaineers and now sit at 5-2 on the year and are tied for second place in the Big 12 at 3-1.

The Cowboys’ offense travelled (Ollie Gordon was on the bus), and their defense made some big plays to keep the ball in No. 0’s hands.

Here are 10 significant numbers to come out of the Pokes’ road win.

1. Ollie Gordon’s four rushing touchdowns tied for second-most in a game in OSU history. Only Barry Sanders has scored five in a game (three times).
