• TE Wilson Youman's 22-yard TD reception with 6:18 remaining in the first quarter was the first scoring catch of his career. It is also the first touchdown catch by an OSU tight end since Brandon Pettigrew caught a 1-yard pass from Zac Robinson to end the first half against Texas on Nov. 3, 2007, a span 23 games.
• Youman became the sixth different Cowboy to catch a scoring pass from Robinson this season.
• TE Cooper Bassett's nine-yard catch in the second quarter was his first-career reception. He also became the 15th-different player to catch a pass for the Cowboys this season. He later made his first-career TD reception at the 9:38 mark of the second quarter.
• Robinson connected on three scoring strikes against Baylor, the most by the Cowboy senior this season and the most since the Oklahoma game last year.
• Robinson also set a season high with 23 completions against the Bears, breaking his mark of 22 against Missouri. The senior QB finished 23-of-27 for 250 yards and three touchdowns. It marked his 11th career game with 250 or more passing yards.
