COMEBACK COWBOYS
Coaches for No. 12 Oklahoma State huddled in the showers of the visitor's locker room and discussed what adjustments were needed for the Cowboys after they trailed Texas Tech by 10 points at halftime Saturday.
The players kept their cool, listened to what the coaches had to say and the Cowboys rallied for a 70-53 win.
Mason Rudolph and J.W. Walsh each threw for two touchdowns while Raymond Taylor scored two rushing TDs as Oklahoma State came from behind to remain undefeated and still in the hunt for the Big 12 title.
The combined points were the third most involving a ranked team without playing overtime.
Walsh found James Washington twice in the fourth quarter, once for 75 yards and then for 73 yards to seal the win for the Cowboys.

BRUINS RALLY
Colorado ran 114 plays and held the ball for more than 41 minutes while the latest wave of injuries washed over No. 24 UCLA's already battered defense.
The weary Bruins weathered everything the Buffaloes could manage, and hung on to stay in control of the Pac-12 South race.
Soso Jamabo rushed for the go-ahead touchdown with 8:28 to play, and UCLA blew an 18-point lead before escaping the Rose Bowl with a 35-31 victory.
Josh Rosen passed for 262 yards and a touchdown for the Bruins, who avoided an embarrassing loss despite giving up 18 consecutive points in the second half and yielding 554 total yards to the Buffaloes, who haven't beaten a ranked team on the road since 2002.
The Buffaloes dominated possession to an extraordinary degree, forcing UCLA's depleted defense to stay on the field for 55 more snaps than its Colorado counterpart. The Bruins bent repeatedly, but stood up straight late.
