BOXSCORE The Cowboys appeared to be headed for their first Big 12 win in nearly two calendar years, but the Knights showed up on in the second half and sent their seniors off in style. Oklahoma State fell to UCF 17-14 on the road. The Cowboys took a 14-0 lead at the end of the second quarter but gave up 17 unanswered points. It is their 10th consecutive loss. They at least started on a good note. The Cowboys scored a touchdown on their opening drive thanks to a five-yard connection between Zane Flores and Gavin Freeman. Freeman led the Cowboys with five catches and 40. Flores took the scoring into his own hands later in the half.

That being said, it was a huge mistake to fire Gundy mid-season. Should have finished with him as a “lame duck” coach worst case scenario.
