Iowa State upsets No. 24 Oklahoma State with buzzer-beating field goal
Iowa State secured a 51-49 victory over No. 24 Oklahoma State on Saturday night in Ames, Iowa, following a 34-yard field goal by Kyle Konrardy as time expired. The win snaps a two-game losing streak for the Cyclones, moving them to a 4-4 overall record and 2-3 in Big 12 play.
The game was a high-scoring offensive showcase, with both teams combining for 1,114 total yards. Iowa State was led by Jaylen Raynor, who threw for 309 yards and three touchdowns, and Aiden Flora, who rushed for 221 yards and two scores. Jamal Polite contributed 171 receiving yards in the win.
Oklahoma State (5-3, 3-2) held a 49-48 lead with 53 seconds remaining after a 7-yard touchdown pass from Drew Mestemaker to Wyatt Young. However, Young was assessed an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty following the play, which granted Iowa State superior field position for the final drive. Despite Mestemaker throwing for five touchdowns and Caleb Hawkins rushing for 194 yards, the Cowboys' defense surrendered 581 total yards.
