Even in the loss, quarterback Jalen Hurts had a massive game with 395 passing yards and 96 yards on the ground. Hurts' 70-yard touchdown toss to wide receiver CeeDee Lamb in the fourth quarter made for one of the most memorable moments of the day, but ultimately wasn't enough to hold off the Wildcats' upset bid.
Iowa State, meanwhile, came within a touchdown against Oklahoma State, but wound up with a 34-27 loss. One thing holding Iowa State back was the mediocre play of quarterback Brock Purdy, who threw three interceptions in that matchup. For the season, Purdy has thrown for 2,567 yards, 15 touchdowns and seven interceptions.
