STILLWATER, Okla. — Case Keenum threw for 366 yards and three touchdowns, and Bryce Beall caught the go-ahead 6-yard pass off a batted ball as Houston stunned No. 5 Oklahoma State 45-35 on Saturday.
The Cougars (2-0) gave second-year coach Kevin Sumlin his first marquee win with the program’s first victory over a Top 5 team since an upset of third-ranked Texas in 1984.
Oklahoma State (1-1) was coming off of perhaps the biggest opening win in the program’s history last week against Georgia and vaulted into the Top 5 for the first time since 1985. But after overcoming a 17-point halftime lead, the Cowboys squandered their final chances for a win.
