Nov. 17, 2007 :: Floyd Casey Stadium
Final Score: Oklahoma State 45, Baylor 14
OKLAHOMA STATE POST- GAME NOTES
:: Including Saturday's game, Oklahoma State has won 11 of its last 12 meetings with Baylor dating back to 1996 and has scored 34 or more points in each of its last nine meetings with the Bears.
:: Saturday's win improved Oklahoma State to 6-5 on the year and pushed the Cowboys into bowl eligibility for the fifth time in the last six years. OSU has never made five bowl trips in any six-year span in school history.
:: Saturday's win marked Oklahoma State's second straight Big 12 road win this year, as the Cowboys won a 45-14 decision at Nebraska in their last road contest. OSU hadn't won consecutive Big 12 road games since the Alamo Bowl season of 2004, when the Pokes went on the road to knock off both Colorado and Missouri.
:: Quarterback Zac Robinson rushed for a career-high 144 yards Saturday, marking his third 100-yard rushing game of the year. In doing so, Robinson became the first Oklahoma State quarterback in 34 years to surpass the 100-yard rushing plateau three times in a single season. The last Cowboy quarterback to accomplish the feat was Brent Blackman in 1973.
:: Robinson's 144 rushing yards Saturday marked the highest single-game rushing total for an OSU quarterback since Tony Lindsay rushed for 158 yards against Louisiana-Lafayette in 1998.
:: Robinson established a new single-season school record for total offense during Saturday's game. Robinson entered Saturday with 2,776 yards of total offense this year. He added 346 yards to bring his season total to 3,122, eclipsing the previous record of 3,073 set by Josh Fields in 2002.
