>> Announcer: THIS IS ESPN ON ABC. >> WELCOME TO THE DR. PEPPER CHAMPIONSHIP DRIVE GAME OF THE WEEK. >> Dave: ESPN'S COLLEGE AFTERNOON FOOTBALL PRESENTED BY TUMS GUMMY BITES. BREAKFAST AT BOONE PICKENS STADIUM IN STILLWATER. THREE HOURS APART YET MEETING FOR THE FIRST TIME IN OVER 40 YEARS AS 16th RANKED OKLAHOMA STATE TAKES ON ARKANSAS AND A POTENTIAL PLAYOFF RAMIFICATION GAME IN THE NEW 12-TEAM FIELD. DAVE PASCH ALONGSIDE DUSTY DVORCHAK. WE'LL CHECK IN WITH TAYLOR McGREGOR IN A BIT. THE TWO HEAD COACHES, MIKE GUNDY REALIZES WITH THE STRENGTH OF THE S.E.C. AND THE BIG TEN, IN TERMS OF GETTING MULTIPLE BIG 12 TEAMS IN THE NEW PLAYOFF FIELD, NOT JUST THE CONFERENCE CHAMP AND AUTOMATIC BID THEY HAVE TO WIN RESUME POTENTIAL BUILDING GAMES LIKE THIS. FOR SAM PITTMAN, HE KNOWS HE'S AN 0 THE HOT SEAT YET A WIN COULD VAULT HIM BLACK INTO RELEVANCE. >> Dusty: ON THE ROAD AGAINST THE NUMBER SIX TEAM AND 16 TEAM IN THE COUNTRY IN OKLAHOMA STATE. A LOT OF NEWNESS IN FAYETTEVILLE AS THEY RECOGNIZE THE IMPORTANCE OF THIS SEASON, A COMPLETELY REMADE ROSTER, NEW COACHING STAFF, HEADLINED BY BOBBY PETRINO AND FEEL A WIN TODAY COULD CATAPULT THEM IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION IN THIS SEASON AND OKLAHOMA STATE, THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST VETERAN EXPERIENCED TEAMS IN ALL OF COLLEGE FOOTBALL. THEY'VE GOT LOFTY EXPECTATIONS AGE CAME BACK TO DO SOMETHING COLLECTIVELY SPECIAL THIS SEASON AND WHAT AN OPPORTUNITY AND A MOMENT AGAINST THIS ARKANSAS TEAM, A BIG OPPORTUNITY, AS YOU MENTIONED, TO BOLSTER AND BUILD THAT RESUME. IF THEY'RE THE TEAM THEY THINK THEY CAN BE, THEY WIN GAMES LIKE TODAY AGAINST ARKANSAS. >> Dave: WE GOT ONE OF THE BEST PLAYERS ON DISPLAY, LEADING RUSHER FROM A YEAR AGO, HEISMAN CANDIDATE IN OLLIE GORDON. >> Dusty: HE IS A SPECIAL FOOTBALL PLAYER AND HIS PATIENCE ALLOWS HIS BLOCKS TO SET UP AND WHEN HE SEE THE BURST THROUGH IS EXCEPTIONAL. HIS ACT TO HAVE VISION AND SEE THE OPEN HOLE, AS THEY GET GOING INTO THE ZONE GAME, WORK TO ONE SIDE AND SEE THE CUTBACK AND HIT IT DOWNHILL. WATCH OUT FOR THAT VICIOUS STIFF ARM AS WELL AND TWO PEOPLE -- FEW PEOPLE CAN DO THIS. LOWER THAT SHOULDER WITH A BIG 6'2", 225-POUND FRAME. ONE OF THE TOUGHEST RUNNING BACKS IN ALL OF COLLEGE FOOTBALL ON THE GROUND. HE IS MUST-SEE TV AND HE WILL HAVE A HUGE PIECE OF THIS GAME HERE TODAY. >> Dave: SATURDAY OF WEEK TWO KICKS OFF NEXT FROM STILLWATER. THIS PRESENTATION OF COLLEGE FOOTBALL WILL CONTINUE AFTER THIS MESSAGE AND A WORD FROM OUR ABC STATIONS. >> Dave: YOU'RE WATCHING THE BIG 12 ON ESPN FROM STILLWATER, OKLAHOMA, A LITTLE COLD FRONT COMING IN. TEMPERATURE AROUND 70 DEGREES AND WINDY AT KICKOFF. SAM PITTMAN, JUST FIVE WINS AGAINST RANKED TEAMS AND SEE IF HE CAN GET ONE TODAY. WITH MORE ON THE RAZORBACKS, HERE'S TAYLOR. >> Taylor: WHEN BOBBY PETRINO MET WITH TAYLEN GREEN, HE SAID YOU REMIND ME OF LAMAR JACKSON. SOMEONE INCREDIBLY GIFTED BUT HIS ARM TALENT COULD GET HIM ALONE TO THE NFL AND TOLD HIM, YOU'RE ATHLETIC BUT I WANT PEOPLE TO TALK ABOUT YOUR PASSING AND IF YOU COME TO ARKANSAS, I WILL HELP YOU IMPROVE AS A PASSER. THE TWO DECIDED THAT MORIKAWA DURING A BREAKFAST IN BOISE THEY WANTED TO BE IN PARTNERSHIP TOGETHER AND HAVE WORKED TIRELESSLY THROUGH THE LAST EIGHT MONTHS TO GROW GREEN AS AN OVERALL QUARTERBACK AND HE WILL GET HIS FIRST REAL TEST TODAY TO SEE HOW MUCH THAT OFF-SEASON WORK WILL PAY OFF. >> Dusty: HE HASN'T PLAYED IN AN ENVIRONMENT LIKE THIS. IT'S LOUD. YOU'RE BASICALLY BACKED UP TO THE WALL IF YOU'RE A PLAYER TO ALL THE OKLAHOMA STATE FANS AND IT'S PACKED FOR THIS GAME. >> Dave: RAZORBACKS WON THE TOSS AND DEFERRED SO WE WILL NOT SEE TAYLEN GREEN JUST YET BUT OLLIE GORDON, THE OUTSTANDING HEISMAN TROPHY CANDIDATE RUNNING BACK IN JUST A MOMENT. WE'RE UNDER WAY FROM STILLWATER. 11:00 A.M. LOCAL KICK. IT'LL BE A TOUCHBACK, AND THE COWBOYS WILL START ON THEIR 25 YARD LINE. BUT THE LAST TIME A RUNNING BACK WON THE HEISMAN TROPHY WAS DERRICK HENRY BACK IN 2015. LOOK AT THE NUMBERS DURING REGGIE BUSH AND MARK INGRAM'S HEISMAN TROPHY CANDIDATE SEASONS TO OLLIE GORDON'S SEASON OF A YEAR AGO AND, REMEMBER, GORDON, MOST OF THOSE CAME IN THE LAST TEN GAMES SO PRETTY COMPARABLE TO BUSH AND INGRAM. DERRICK HENRY HAD A RUNNING BACK SEASON LIKE NONE OTHER AT ALABAMA. >> Dusty: TALKING WITH TRAVIS WILLIAMS, HE SAID OLLIE GORDON REMINDS HIM OF DERRICK HENRY. >> Dave: A PASS PLAY ON FIRST DOWN. NICE ADJUSTMENT BY STRIBLING TO MAKE THE CATCH. ALAN BOWMAN, ALAN IS SEVENTH SEASON IN COLLEGE FOOTBALL. HAD A 600-YARD PASSING GAME SIX YEARS AGO BUT, AGAIN, THAT WAS NOT IN HIGH SCHOOL BUT AT TEXAS TECH AND MOVED ON TO MICHIGAN FROM THERE. NOW IN HIS SECOND YEAR WITH OKLAHOMA STATE. A GAIN OF SIX ON FIRST DOWN. BOWMAN THROWING AGAIN AND COMPLETE ACROSS THE MIDDLE. OUT TO THE 42, RASHOD OWENS WHO HAD 63 CATCHES A YEAR AGO. >> Dusty: RPO GAME WILL BE A BIG PART OF WHAT YOU'LL SEE TODAY FROM OKLAHOMA STATE AND IT'S WHAT YOU HAVE TO ASK YOURSELF DEFENSIVELY, PLAYING OKLAHOMA STATE, DO WE LOAD UP TO TAKE AWAY OLLIE GORDON? IF THEY DO, EXCELLENT TARGETS OUTSIDE, AND A QUARTERBACK IN ALAN BOWMAN THAT CAN DISTRIBUTE THE FOOTBALL. >> Dave: GOSS HIS MASTERS AT MICHIGAN. OLLIE GORDON'S FIRST TOUCH OF THE DAY, BOTTLED UP AFTER A SHORT GAIN. OKLAHOMA STATE WILL TAKE THAT, JUST TWO YARDS THERE. CAMPBELL ON THE STOP. >> Dusty: TALK ABOUT THE EXPERIENCE OF OKLAHOMA STATE, ESPECIALLY THAT OFFENSIVE LINE, NOBODY PUT TO THE TEST WITH THE SIZE OF THIS ARKANSAS FRONT. >> Dave: BOWMAN THROWING AGAIN AND LOBBING IT DOWNFIELD. GOING FOR OWENS AND HE WAS INTERFERED WITH. JAHEIM SINGLETARY IN COVERAGE. IT'LL BE AN AUTOMATIC FIRST DOWN FOR OKLAHOMA STATE. >> Dusty: PRETTY EASY CALL. SINGLETARY GETS HIS ARM UP INTO THE BODY OF RASHOD OWENS AND GETS TANGLED UP. >> Referee: PASS INTERFERENCE, DEFENSE, NUMBER 15. 15-YARD PENALTY. IT IS FIRST DOWN. >> Dusty: THAT RIGHT ARM GRABBING AND TUGGING ON THE SHOULDER PAD AND FALLS TO THE GROUND BUT SINGLETARY KNOWS HE WAS IN A BAD SPOT. PITTMAN NOT HAPPY ABOUT THAT. >> Dave: I GUESS HE THOUGHT RASHOD OWENS DID HIS FAIR SHARE OF TUGGING AND THOUGHT THERE SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN A FLAG ON HIS GUY. FIRST DOWN THOUGH FOR OKLAHOMA STATE ALREADY INSIDE THE 40 YARD LINE. OKLAHOMA STATE BEAT SOUTH DAKOTA STATE WEEK ONE, THEIR FIRST LOSS IN THREE YEARS. BOWMAN, A TON OF TIME AND ABLE TO DUMP IT OFF TO JOSH FORD WHO MIKE GUNDY RAVED ABOUT IN OUR MEETING AND COMPARED HIM TO A CAGE FIGHTER. >> Dusty: THE PROTECTION BY THIS OFFENSIVE LINE. SO EXPERIENCED, PICKED UP THE FOUR-MAN PRESSURE, BOWMAN STANDS FIRM IN THERE. ALLOWS FOR THAT TRUE FRESHMAN JOSH FORD TO COME OPEN AND A NICE STRIKE FOR A FIRST DOWN. >> Dave: GOOD RECEIVER. SUPER PHYSICAL. WILD SNAP. BOWMAN ABLE TO COLLECT AND FIRE COMPLETE TO THE SIDELINE TO PRESLEY, IS GRABBED AND THROWN OUT OF BOUNDS ON THE SIDELINE BY TJ METCALF. >> Dusty: NO PANIC AND SEE THE QUICK RELEASE TO HIS FAVORITE TARGET, BRENNAN PRESLEY, NIGOS PLAY. >> Dave: SECOND AND SHORT, BOWMAN OFF PLAY ACTION TAKING A SHOT INTO THE END ZONE GOING FOR STRIBLING AND CAN'T COME UP WITH IT. LOOKED LIKE IT WENT THROUGH HIS HANDS. DONEIKO SLAUGHTER IN COVERAGE. WHEN YOU TURN BACK THE WAY STRIBLING DID, THE SUN IS IN YOUR FACE AND THAT MAY HAVE BEEN A FACTOR. >> Dusty: I TELL YOU WHAT, SLAUGHTER MIGHT HAVE GOT HIS HAND ON THE FOOTBALL. HE IS IN PERFECT POSITION TO MAKE THE PLAY. GETS THAT HAND IN THERE THE LAST MINUTE, REALLY WELL DONE BY THE SENIOR SAFETY. NOT ALLOWING THAT CATCH BY THE TALENTED De'ZHAUN STRIBLING. >> Dave: MISSED MOST OF LAST YEAR BECAUSE OF INJURY. TRANSFERRED FROM WASHINGTON STATE, De'ZHAUN STRIBLING. HERE'S GORDON STRAIGHT AHEAD AND HE DID NOT GET IT. STOOD UP AT THE 20 YARD LINE. AND SO THIRD AND ONE HERE EXCUSE ME, FOURTH DOWN AND ONE, EARLY DECISION FOR MIKE GUNDY. >> Dusty: THE FULLBACK, JAKE SCHULTZ. THIS IS THE GO ZONE FOR MIKE GUNDY. IF TRAVIS WILLIAMS AND THE DEFENSE COULD COME UP WITH A STOP, WHAT A BIG MOMENTUM SWING IT COULD HERE EARLY ON IN THE FOOTBALL GAME. >> Dave: DO YOU GO STRAIGHT AHEAD WITH GORDON? >> Dusty: ABSOLUTELY. >> Dave: THEY'LL LINE UP IN PISTOL. IT'S PLAY ACTION INSTEAD AND BOWMAN'S PASS IS INCOMPLETE. IT WAS INTENDED FOR PRESLEY, AND IT LOOKED LIKE BOTH PRESLEY AND OWENS WERE IN THE SAME AREA. NOT A LOT OF SPACING AND IT'S A TURNOVER ON DOWNS. JAYLON BRAXTON WAS THERE IN COVERAGE FOR ARKANSAS. >> Dusty: MISCOMMUNICATION OUTSIDE. BRENNAN PRESLEY ACTUALLY RUNS INTO STRIBLING, NICE JOB BY BRAXTON COMING IN FOR THE PASS BREAKUP. I THOUGHT THAT WAS DEFINITELY A SPOT. YOU TRUST OLLIE GORDON. THEY KNOW IT'S COMING. MIKE GUNDY TOLD US WE KNOW THIS IS GOING TO BE A PHYSICAL GAME AND THOUGHT THEY COULD MATCH THE PHYSICALITY. PUTS IT IN THE QUARTERBACK'S HAND AND HUGE STOP ON THE OPENING POSSESSION. >> Dave: A FIRST LOOK AT TAYLEN GREEN TODAY, TRANSFER FROM BOISE STATE AND HUGE RUNNING LANE FOR Ja'QUNDEN JACKSON OUT TO THE 33 YARD LINE. A GAIN OF 13 FOR THE UTAH TRANSFER. >> Dusty: I'M A BIG FAN OF Ja'QUNDEN JACKSON. HE HAS SIZE, POWER, AND SPEED. 6'2, 233. EXCELLENT PICKUP BY ARKANSAS IN THE OFF-SEASON. >> Dave: GREEN GOING TO KICK IT AND RUN AND A TON OF ROOM, GREEN PAST THE 40 AND ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE 34 OF OKLAHOMA STATE. TWO RUSHING TOUCHDOWNS IN HIS RAZORBACK DEBUT LAST WEEK, THAT ONE GOES FOR 40 YARDS. >> Dusty: THEY WANT TO RUN THE FOOTBALL AND WANT PLAY ACTION AND GET TAYLEN GREEN ON THE PERIMETER WITH RUN-PASS OPTIONS, A LOT OF GREEN GRASS OUT IN FRONT AND A HUGE CHUNK PLAY FOR THE 6'6", TAYLEN GREEN. WHEN HE GETS THAT STRIDE OPENED UP, MAN, HE IS SO TURFE TO DEAL WITH. >> Dave: PUT ON SOME MUSCLE. GAINED ABOUT TEN POUNDS IN THE OFF-SEASON. HERE'S JACKSON, TRYING TO PICK A HOLE. DOWN TO THE 30 AND TO THE 27 YARD LINE. SEVEN-YARD GAIN ON FIRST DOWN. >> Dusty: WHAT'S A REMADE OFFENSIVE LINE, ERIC MATEOS COMES IN. YOU SEE THE PATIENCE THERE BY Ja'QUNDEN JACKSON, ALLOWS THAT BLOCK TO SET UP, JUMP CUT BACK UP NORTH AND SOUTH AND A NICE PICKUP ON FIRST DOWN. >> Dave: WELL, SECOND AND THREE FOR ARKANSAS. GREEN WITH TIME TO THROW. INTO THE END ZONE AND THE BALL SAILS OUT OF BOUNDS. JORDAN ANTHONY HAD TO STEP ON A DEFENDER BUT GREEN THREW IT OUT OF PLAY, AND IT'S THIRD DOWN AND THREE. EVENTUALLY THE TWO RUSHING TOUCHDOWNS FOR GREEN, HE THREW FOR TWO SCORES ALSO AND HE'LL PUT IT IN HIS HANDS ON THIRD DOWN AND THREE. OBVIOUSLY WE JUST SAW IT, BUT HIS RUNNING ABILITY, THERE ARE OPTIONS WITH HIM AT QUARTERBACK. >> Dusty: RUNNING A LAUD OF READ ZONE AND TAYLEN GREEN GOOD AT THE MESH. >> Dave: INSTEAD HE'LL THROW IT. PRESSURE UP THE MIDDLE. DOWN HE GOES. SACKED, MAYBE OUT OF FIELD GOAL RANGE AT THE 36 YARD LINE. JEFF ROBERSON WITH THE TAKEDOWN. >> Dusty: TIMELY PRESSURE BY NARDO OPENS UP FOR ROBERSON AND ABLE TO GET IT. NO ONE IDENTIFIES THE LINEBACKER, A HUGE STOP FOR THIS OKLAHOMA STATE DEFENSE ON THIRD DOWN. >> Dave: AND SO FROM HERE IT WOULD BE ABOUT A 54-YARD FIELD GOAL ATTEMPT. AND LOOKS LIKE THEY'RE GOING TO PUNT IT. DEVIN BALE IS OUT THERE FOR ARKANSAS. FOURTH DOWN AND 12 SO BRENNAN PRESLEY JOGS ON AS A RETURNER FOR OKLAHOMA STATE AND THERE IS A PENALTY MARKER DOWN. COWBOYS MAY HAVE HAD TOO MANY ON THE FIELD. >> Referee: DELAY OF GAME ON THE OFFENSE, FIVE-YARD PENALTY, FOURTH DOWN. >> Dave: OKLAHOMA STATE WAS DANGEROUSLY CLOSE AT ONE POINT IN THAT SEQUENCE TO HAVING TOO MANY MEN ON THE FIELD IF ARKANSAS SNAPPED THE BALL. STILL FOURTH AND SEVEN BUT MAYBE IN A POSITION TO TRY A LONG FIELD GOAL. BUT BECAUSE OF THE DELAY OF GAME, THAT ACTUALLY ENDS UP HELPING DEVIN BALE A LITTLE BIT TRYING TO PIN THE COWBOYS DEEP INSIDE THE 10 YARD LINE. FIRST PUNT FOR ARKANSAS THIS YEAR. LAST WEEK THEY SCORED TOUCHDOWNS IN ALL TEN OF THEIR POSSESSIONS. AND EXCELLENT PUNT THAT TIME BY DEVIN BALE AS ARKANSAS DOWNS IT AT THE 1 YARD LINE. TYRONE BRODEN DOWN THERE TO CATCH IT AT THE 1. NO SCORE EARLY ON IN STILLWATER. >> Dusty: A LOOK AT SOME OF THE DEFENSIVE PLAYERS THAT HAVE BEEN MAKING PLAYS. DUSTY'S DEFENSIVE DUDES, LANDON JACKSON, 6'7" AND NICK MARTIN, PRESEASON ALL CONFERENCE, PRESEASON ALL-AMERICANS. THEY'LL BE ALL OVER THE FIELD. HIGH SCHOOL TEAMMATES INTERESTINGLY ENOUGH MEETING UP IN STILLWATER TODAY. >> Dave: IN TEXARKANA, TEXAS, FIRST DOWN FROM INSIDE THE 1. A QUARTERBACK SNEAK FROM BOWMAN. RAN EIGHT PLAYS ON THEIR OPENING DRIVE AND THEY THREW IT SIX TIMES, ONLY TWO CARRIES FOR HEISMAN TROPHY CANDIDATE OLLIE GORDON. IN FACT, THEY THREW IT ON FOURTH DOWN, AND DID NOT CONVERT. SEE IF THEY TRY TO POUND IT HERE. JAKE SCHULTZ AT FULLBACK. A LITTLE BIT OF BREATHING ROOM AND BOWMAN THROWS FROM THE END ZONE AND GOING DEEP AND THE BALL IS OVERTHROWN AND INCOMPLETE. TRYING TO HIT STRIBLING AS WE CHECK IN WITH TAYLOR. >> Taylor: BE MORE PHYSICAL IS WHAT CHARLIE DICKEY WAS TELLING HIS LINE REFERRING TO LANDON JACKSON, THE EDGE RUSHER. THEY WANT TO SEE MORE PHYSICALITY AND TALKING TO BOTH COACHES THEY KNEW THIS GAME WOULD BE MORE PHYSICAL AND CALLING FOR IT EARLY. >> Dave: GREAT REPORT THERE, TAYLOR, AND NO DOUBT THIS GAME WILL BE ABOUT PHYSICALITY. >> Dusty: THAT OFFENSIVE LINE IN DEALING WITH LANDON JACKSON IS GOING TO BE A HUGE KEY ALL THROUGHOUT THIS BALL GAME. >> Dave: BOWMAN TO THROW, MIDDLE OF END ZONE, OFF TARGET. TRYING TO HIT PRESLEY, AND SO NOW OKLAHOMA STATE WILL HAVE TO PUNT FROM THE BACK OF ITS END ZONE. ARKANSAS' HAS ONLY GIVEN UP ONE THIRD TIME THIS YEAR. >> Dusty: A MISFIRE OUTSIDE ON THE PERIMETER. A COUPLE FROM ALAN BOWMAN. HE WAS SO GOOD IN THE OPENER AGAINST SOUTH DAKOTA STATE AND JACKRABBITS CAME IN AND PLAYED TOUGH, BACK-TO-BACK NCS CHAMPIONSHIPS AND BOWMAN OFF A LITTLE BIT IN THE SECOND POSSESSION. >> Dave: THEY SET UP FOR THE RETURN, AND IT'S A SHORT KICK. LEVELLED BY HIS OWN GUY SO, SATEGNA. TJ METCALF. KROSSE JOHNSON WAS THE GUY THAT -- >> Dusty: CALL THAT FRIENDLY FIRE, DAVE. TAKEN OUT BY HIS OWN MAN. >> Dave: SO ARKANSAS STILL STARTING IN OKLAHOMA STATE TERRITORY AT THE 45 YARD LINE. AND HE'S GOING TO KEEP IT, GREEN WITH ROOM. INSIDE THE 30 AND DOWN TO THE 27. THEY ARE FINDING SOME HUGE RUNNING LANES AGAINST THAT DEFENSE. THAT ONE FOR 18 YARDS. >> Dusty: NICE JOB BY THE CENTER GETTING UP, ADDISON NICHOLS GETTING UP ON THE LINEBACKER, KENDAL DANIELS FOR A QUARTERBACK RUN GAME UP THE MIDDLE WELL EXECUTED BY TAYLEN GREEN. >> Dave: Ja'QUNDEN JACKSON NOW AND NO RUNNING ROOM THAT TIME. THROWN DOWN BY XAVIER ROSS AT THE POINT OF ATTACK AND TALKING WITH BRIAN NARDO FROM OKLAHOMA STATE YESTERDAY, YOU COULD SENSE HE WAS A LITTLE NERVOUS ABOUT THE PHYSICALITY OF ARKANSAS, THERE WERE SOME RUSH LANES OPEN LAST WEEK, THAT WAS AN ISSUE LAST YEAR AS WELL ON DEFENSE. THE SECOND TIME ALREADY ARKANSAS HAS BEEN INSIDE THE COWBOY 30. ONE YARD ON FIRST DOWN. GREEN KEEPING IT, TRYING TO GET THE PERIMETER. INSIDE THE 25 BEFORE HE SCOOTS OUT OF PLAY. A GAIN OF ABOUT THREE. PUSHED OUT BY TREY RUCKER, AN EXCELLENT SAFETY, SIXTH YEAR GUY, FOURTH AT OKLAHOMA STATE. TRANSFERRED FROM WAKE. >> Dusty: YOU'LL SEE THIS QUITE A BIT. AT THE MESH POINT. NICE JOB. KENDAL DANIELS HAS TO BE ABLE TO SECURE AND SET THE EDGE AND FORCE TAYLEN GREEN BACK INSIDE. REALLY NOTHING THERE AND GREEN IS STILL ABLE TO PICK UP A COUPLE. SAW PRESSURE THE LAST BIG THIRD DOWN FROM BRYAN NARDO. >> Dave: GREEN GOT SACKED ON THIRD DOWN IN THE LAST DRIVE, PUSHED HIM OUT OF FIELD GOAL RANGE. GREEN TO THE AIR, WITH TIME. FIRES AND IT'S CAUGHT, INSIDE THE 10. DOWN TO THE 6 YARD LINE, TYRONE BRODEN, 18 YARDS, FIRST AND GOAL COMING UP. >> Dusty: THIS OFFENSIVE LINE HOLDING UP IN PROTECTION, ONLY A FOUR-MAN RUSH, AND THEY GIVE TAYLEN GREEN PLENTY OF TIME TO SURVEY THE FIELD, BRODEN COMES OPEN OVER THE MIDDLE, AND A NICE THIRD DOWN CONVERSION FROM GREEN. >> Dave: FIRST AND GOAL ON THE 6. JACKSON WILL GET THE CARRY OFF THE LEFT SIDE, GROUNDED AT THE 5 BY COLLIN CLAY WHO STARTED HIS COLLEGE CAREER AT ARKANSAS. PLAYED IN 11 GAMES AS A TRUE FRESHMAN AND MISSED A COUPLE YEARS DUE TO INJURY, TRANSFERRED TO OKLAHOMA STATE, NOW IN HIS SIXTH COLLEGE SEASON. A GAIN OF ONE ON THE PLAY, SECOND AND GOAL FROM THE 5. >> Dusty: OF NOTE, ANDREW ARMSTRONG IN THIS GAME. HE MISSED THE OPENER AGAINST ARKANSAS-PINE BLUFF, THEIR BEST RECEIVER FROM A SEASON AGO DEALING WITH A HAMSTRING THROUGHOUT FALL CAMP. NEAR YOUR SCREEN. >> Dave: AND SINGLED UP OVER THERE BUT THEY'LL RUN IT. JACKSON FINDS A CREASE INTO THE END ZONE. TOUCHDOWN, ARKANSAS. THIRD RUSHING TOUCHDOWN OF THE SEASON FOR Ja'QUNDEN JACKSON, WHO CAME OUT OF HIGH SCHOOL AS A QUARTERBACK, WENT TO TEXAS, TRANSFERRED TO UTAH, WAS THE BACKUP QUARTERBACK THERE, THEN MOVED TO RUNNING BACK AND REALLY COMFORTABLE IN THAT POSITION. WE SAW IT AT UTAH AND OFF TO A GREAT START WITH THE RAZORBACKS. RAMSEY ON FOR THE POINT AFTER. 7-0, ARKANSAS. >> Dusty: WE TALKED ABOUT IT BEING A PHYSICAL AFFAIR AND THE ARKANSAS OFFENSIVE LINE, HOW MUCH IMPROVED WERE THEY? ADDISON NICHOLS IS CENTER, E'MARION HARRIS THE LEFT GUARD. BIG PUSH, BIG MOVE >> Announcer: ABC COLLEGE FOOTBALL IS PRESENTED BY TUMS GUMMY BITES. GET FAST RELIEF OF OCCASIONAL HEARTBURN. USE AS DIRECTED. AND IN PART BY BANK OF AMERICA, WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE THE POWER TO DO? >> Dave: WELL, MAYBE SURPRISINGLY OKLAHOMA STATE NOT RIDING ITS HORSE RIGHT NOW. OLLIE GORDON, ONLY TWO TOUCHES IN THE FIRST QUARTER, EIGHT PASS PLAYS FOR OFFENSIVE. SOMETHING TO KEEP AN EYE ON SO A LITTLE BIT OF A SURPRISE ATTACK, WE'LL SEE, NOW THAT OKLAHOMA STATE'S TRAILING AND AFTER IT HAD A FAILED FOURTH DOWN AND PUNTED OUT THE LAST MOW SESSION BACK TO THEIR BREAD AND BUTTER AND RUN GORDON. THIS WILL BE A TOUCHBACK SO THE COWBOYS WILL START ON THEIR 25 YARD LINE. >> Dusty: BIG GAME AND BIG 12 COUNTRY AND A LOT OF BIG GAMES ACROSS THE LANDSCAPE THIS WEEKEND. IN THE BIG 12, KANSAS STATE OVER AT TULANE TODAY. CINCINNATI/PITT. KANSAS/ILLINOIS GAME INTRIGUING, BYU GOT A BIG WIN LAST NIGHT AND BIG 12 WANTS TO BOLSTER THE RESUME, SOME OF THESE NONCONFERENCE MATCHUPS, A HUGE OPPORTUNITY TODAY FOR THEM TO BE ABLE TO DO THAT. >> Dave: FIRST DOWN ON THE 25 AND GORDON DOES GET THE CARRY HERE AND JUST PICKS UP A COUPLE BEFORE HE'S WRAPPED UP. WELL, MIKE GUNDY MENTIONED TO US YESTERDAY, HE DOES NOT SEE A LOT OF BUBBLE TEAMS IN THE BIG 12, BECAUSE OF THE STRENGTH OF THE BIG TEN AND S.E.C. IF YOU'RE A CONFERENCE CHAMPION IN THE POWER FOUR YOU GET AN AUTOMATIC BID AS BOWMAN THROWS ON SECOND DOWN AND COMING BACK TO GET THE BALL AND MAKE THE CATCH FOR A FIRST DOWN OUT TO THE 39 YARD LINE IS TALYN SHETTRON BUT GAMES LIKE THIS ARE HUGE IN TERMS OF IMPROVING YOUR RESUME SHOULD YOU HAVE TO RELY ON AN AT LARGE BID IN THIS EXPANDED 12-TEAM PLAYOFF. BOWMAN TRIPPED UP BY CAM BALL, NO GAIN ON THE PLAY. >> Dusty: GOT TO TAKE ADVANTAGE WHEN THE OPPORTUNITY PRESENTS ITSELF, AN S.E.C. TEAM COMING INTO YOUR BACKYARD. MIKE GUNDY MADE NO BONES ABOUT IT, IT'S A BIG GAME. >> Dave: BOWMAN SETTING UP, AND THAT BALL IS THROWN HIGH, INTENDED FOR SHETTRON, INCOMPLETE, IT BRINGS UP THIRD DOWN AND LONG. >> Dusty: THAT'S JUST A LITTLE BIT OFF THE MARK FOR ALAN BOWMAN. THOUGHT THAT WAS ONE THAT SHETTRON WOULD BE ABLE TO COME DOWN WITH. LOOKED ALMOST AS IF HE EXTENDED AND KIND OF SLIPPED THERE NOW SETTING UP A THIRD AND LONG SITUATION FOR THE COWBOYS. >> Dave: AGAIN, TEN PASS ATTEMPTS FOR BOWMAN, JUST THREE CARRIES FOR GORDON. OBVIOUSLY PASSING SITUATION HERE ON THIRD AND TEN. FOUR-MAN RUSH FOR ARKANSAS. BOWMAN OVER THE MIDDLE. KNOCKED DOWN, INCOMPLETE. JAYDON JOHNSON BROKE UP THE PASS AT THE LINE TO GAIN. SHETTRON THE INTENDED TARGET AND ANOTHER PUNT COMING UP FOR OKLAHOMA STATE. >> Dusty: BEHIND HIS WIDE RECEIVER, HE HAS TO PUT THAT BALL OUT IN FRONT. NICE JOB BY SHETTRON, SITTING DOWN IN THAT ZONE. THERE WAS A SOFT SPOT THERE. THAT PASS COMES OFF BEHIND, ALLOWS A DEFENDER TO MAKE UP AND A NICE PLAY BY JAYDON JOHNSON, LOOK AT THAT DEFENSE. FORCES YET ANOTHER OKLAHOMA STATE PUNT. >> Dave: SATEGNA BACK DEEP, LOOKING INTO THE SUN. AND A FAIR CATCH MADE AROUND THE 16 YARD LINE. IT'S EARLY, BUT FANS A LITTLE NERVOUS AND VERY QUIET HERE IN STILLWATER. DOWN 7-0 TO ARKANSAS. >> Dave: TAYLEN GREEN SPENT THE LAST THREE YEARS AT BOISE STATE, THE LAST TWO AS A STARTER WHERE HE WENT 15-6. NOT ONLY DID BOISE WIN THE MOUNTAIN WEST CHAMPIONSHIP LAST YEAR, HE WAS THE GAME MVP AND THEN TRANSFERRED TO ARKANSAS WHEN THE PORTAL OPENED IN MID-DECEMBER. SO FAR HE'S HANDLED THIS ENVIRONMENT VERY WELL. HE'S QUIETED THE CROWD WITH HIS LEGS. HAD SOME GREAT RUNS ON THAT LAST DRIVE THAT LED TO A TOUCHDOWN AND WILL THROW IT HERE ON FIRST DOWN, EVERYBODY COVERED, SO GREEN CREATES SPACE AND FIRES COMPLETE ACROSS THE 40 OUT TO THE 45 YARD LINE. FINDING ISAIAH SATEGNA AND THAT GOES FOR 28. >> Dusty: TAYLEN GREEN DOES A NICE JOB WITH HIS LEGS BUYING SOME TIME, STEPPING UP. HE HAS A RUN-PASS OPTION AND LOCATES TYRONE BRODEN, HIS BIG 6'7" TARGET. JUST SITS DOWN IN THAT OPEN AREA ON THE FIELD AND AN EXCELLENT FIND BY TAYLEN GREEN. HE IS COMFORTABLE BACK THERE THROWING THE FOOTBALL TODAY. >> Dave: BOBBY PETRINO BACK AT ARKANSAS. WAS THE HEAD COACH, 2008 TO 2011. WAS AT A&M LAST YEAR AS OFFENSIVE COORDINATOR. GREEN FLIPS IT DOWNFIELD COMPLETE. BRODEN ON THE GRAB, FIRST DOWN AT THE 43 YARD LINE AND OBVIOUSLY PETRINO HAS HAD A HISTORY OF SUCCESS WORKING WITH QUARTERBACKS. YOU LOOK AT WHAT HE DID AT LOUISVILLE TO LAMAR JACKSON. TAYLEN GREEN IS THE BIGGEST GUY HE'S HAD SINCE HE WAS AT ARKANSAS THE FIRST TIME AND HAD RYAN MALLETT WHO WAS A TERRIFIC PLAYER FOR THE RAZORBACKS AS WELL. >> Dusty: IDENTIFIED, KNEW HE WANTED TO GO AFTER TAYLEN GREEN. RECRUITED HIM OUT OF HIRE SCHOOL. AND IT WAS A VERY EASY DECISION TO BRING HIM IN TO BE HIS QUARTERBACK IN FAYETTEVILLE. >> Dave: THEY RUN JACKSON HERE INSIDE THE 30. JACKSON FINALLY DROPPED AT THE 26. 17 MORE YARDS ON THE GROUND. >> Dusty: NICE JOB BY THE LEFT SIDE OF THIS ARKANSAS OFFENSIVE LINE. CARMONA, BIG CUTBACK LANE, THE VISION AND DOWNHILL RUNNING OF Ja'QUNDEN JACKSON, THIS ARKANSAS OFFENSE OFF TO AN EXCELLENT START HERE IN THE FIRST QUARTER. >> Dave: FRESH SET OF DOWNS INSIDE THE 30 FOR THE THIRD TIME, JACKSON WILL NOT GET BACK TO THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE. THAT WAS WELL DEFENDED. NICK MARTIN WHO LED THE BIG 12 IN TACKLES LAST YEAR MADE THE PLAY AND A LOSS OF A YARD OR TWO. >> Dusty: NICK MARTIN, 140 TACKLES A SEASON AGO. PLAYS SO FAST, VERY GOOD OPEN-FIELD TACKLER. NICE NEGATIVE PLAY ON FIRST DOWN. >> Dave: PRESEASON ALL AMERICA. SECOND AND 12 FROM THE 28. RODNEY HILL IN THE GAME AT RUNNING BACK. GREEN WILL THROW. FROM THE POCKET, AND OFF TARGET, TRYING THE BACK SHOULDER THROW TO JORDAN ANTHONY WHO CAME TO ARKANSAS WITH BOBBY PETRINO, TRANSFERRING FROM TEXAS A&M IN THE OFF-SEASON, THIRD AND 12 COMING UP. >> Dusty: FEELS LIKE A BIG THIRD DOWN SPOT FOR BRYAN NARDO IN THIS DEFENSE AND SEEN A LOT OF CHUNK PLAYS OUT OF TAYLEN GREEN IN THIS ARKANSAS OFFENSE HERE IN THE FIRST QUARTER. HAVEN'T CALLED COLLIN OLIVER'S NAME YET. CAN HE WIN, GET HOME AND GET A STOP FOR THIS DEFENSE? >> Dave: GREEN STEPS UP AND RUNS INSIDE THE 20, INSIDE THE 10 AND OUT OF BOUNDS AROUND THE 5 YARD LINE, A GAIN OF 23 ON THIRD AND 12. >> Dusty: YOU'VE GOT TO HAVE GOOD RUSH LANES WHEN YOU'RE GOING AGAINST TAYLEN GREEN. FREEZE IT RIGHT HERE, GUYS. RIGHT THERE. AS THIS OPENS UP, TOO MUCH SPACE, YOU'VE GOT TO KEEP GOOD PASS RUSH INTEGRITY. YOU CAN'T OPEN UP BIG LANES FOR TAYLEN GREEN TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF. HE SEES THAT HOLE OPEN UP AND SEES THE GREEN GRASS AND A BIG CONVERSION ON THIRD DOWN. >> Dave: A CHANCE TO GO UP 14-0 IN THE FIRST, FIRST AND GOAL ON THE 6 YARD LINE. PLAY FAKE, GREEN ON THE BOOT. WITH TIME. INTO THE END ZONE. BROKEN UP, INCOMPLETE. LYRIK RAWLS WHO MISSED MOST OF LAST YEAR WITH AN INJURY GOT A HAND ON THAT FOOTBALL. WAS INTENDED FOR TY WASHINGTON WHO LOOKED OPEN WHEN GREEN THREW THE BALL. >> Dusty: AN EXCELLENT PLAY BY LIRIK. NICE RECOVERY BY RAWLS TO PREVENT A TOUCHDOWN.YRIK. NICE RECOVERY BY RAWLS TO PREVENT A TOUCHDOWN. >> Dave: ON SECOND AND GOAL A RUN. JACKSON STRAIGHT AHEAD, INTO THE END ZONE. TOUCHDOWN, Ja'QUNDEN JACKSON HITS PAY DIRT FOR THE SECOND TIME ALREADY. A DOMINANT OPENING QUARTER BY THE RAZORBACKS ON THE ROAD. >> Dusty: JUST GOOD BLOCKING UP FRONT, INSIDE, HAT ON A HAT, KENDAL DANIELS, THE CONVERTED SAFETY TO LINEBACKER, NOBODY ACCOUNTS FOR HIM. HE IS A STEP SLOW AND IT'S THE SECOND TOUCHDOWN FOR Ja'QUNDEN JACKSON. >> Dave: AND JACKSON RUNNING OFF THE FIELD BECKONING THE CROWD TO KEEP BOOING HIM. THERE'S ALSO SOME ARKANSAS FANS OVER THERE. HE WAS LOOKING FOR THEIR ATTENTION AS WELL. THE EXTRA POINT MAKES IT 14-0. WITH 1:31 TO GO IN THE OPENING QUARTER. COMING UP NEXT ON ABC, SOUTH CAROLINA SQUARES OFF AGAINST KENTUCKY IN THE OPENER AND LATER TONIGHT, 14th RANKED TENNESSEE AGAINST N.C. STATE. BIG EARLY SEASON TEST FOR BOTH THE WOLFPACK DID NOT LOOK GREAT LAST WEEK. BOTH GAMES AVAILABLE ON ABC AND ESPN+. >> Dusty: NICO IAMALEAVA LOOKED GREAT. ONE OF THOSE S.E.C. HIGH-POWERED OFFENSES IN THE OPENING WEEK. WE'RE SEEING ANOTHER ONE OF THOSE HIGH-POWERED OFFENSES THAT SCORED 60 PLUS HERE TODAY IN ARKANSAS AND, BOY, THEY HAVE PICKED UP RIGHT WHERE THEY LEFT OFF AGAINST ARKANSAS-PINE BLUFF IN WEEK ONE. >> Dave: WE TALKED ABOUT THE PETRINO FACTOR. HE IS, AGAIN, YOU LOOK AT JESSE HISS -- HISTORY WITH QUARTERBACKS. WHEN WE TALKED TO SAM PITTMAN ABOUT IT, HE SAID PETRINO IS THE GUY I WANTED FROM DAY ONE, THE PERSON I THOUGHT TO BEST HELP US GET BACK TO BEING A GOOD OFFENSE AS THAT BALL GOES OUT OF BOUNDS. DECENT STARTING FIELD POSITION FOR OKLAHOMA STATE. AS WE CHECK IN WITH KEVIN NEGHANDI IN THE STUDIO. >> TIME FOR OUR ALLSTATE CHECK-IN TO THE BIG HOUSE, BOOG, TEXAS GETS ON THE BOARD FIRST AGAINST THE MICHIGAN AGAINST, QUINN EWERS TO GUNNER HELM. >> GOOD JOB, THE TACKLES HAVE TO GET THROUGH THE PASS RUSH, SOMETHING LIKE A YOUNG DUSTY DVORCHAK. >> LONGHORNS LEAD, 7-0. DAVE, DUSTY, BACK TO YOU. >> Dave: SO A LITTLE D TACKLE ON D TACKLE LOVE, BOOGER AND DUSTY. >> Dusty: WE'VE GOT A GREAT APPRECIATION FOR ONE ANOTHER. LOVE YOU, BOOG. APPRECIATE THAT. IT'S A BIG POSSESSION FOR OKLAHOMA STATE OFFENSIVELY, DAVE. >> Dave: THEY'LL GIVE IT TO GORDON AND TRIED THE PERIMETER AND DOWN HE GOES. THEY RAN BETWEEN THE TACKLES WITH GORDON, THE FIRST COUPLE POSSESSIONS, THEY TRY THE EDGE HERE. AND XAVIAN SOREY IS OVER THERE TO MAKE THE HIT. >> Dusty: SOREY, THEY ARE EXCITED ABOUT HIM, THE GEORGIA TRANSFER, FORMER NUMBER ONE OUTSIDE LINEBACKER IN THE COUNTRY, FIVE-STAR TALENT. EXTREMELY ATHLETIC. REALLY STARTING TO COME INTO HIS OWN, TRAVIS WILLIAMS EXCITED ABOUT WHAT THIS SEASON POTENTIALLY HOLES FOR SOREY. NICE PLAY AT THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE. >> Dave: ONLY SIX FIRST QUARTER RUSHING YARDS FOR OLLIE GORDON ON THREE ATTEMPTS. ANOTHER HIGH SNAP. BOWMAN GETS IT DOWN. HIS PASS IS KNOCKED DOWN, INCOMPLETE. HUDSON CLARK, FORMER WALK-ON DEFENDING BRENNAN PRESLEY AND NOW IT'S THIRD AND LONG. >> Dusty: MAN-TO-MAN OUTSIDE SAYING OUR GUYS CAN COVER YOUR GUYS AND THE SAVVY VETERAN WHO PLAYED A LOT OF FOOTBALL FOR THE HOGS, EXCELLENT COVERAGE, NICE JOB BRINGING THAT RIGHT ARM IN AND GETTING A PASS BREAKUP. NOW ALL OF A SUDDEN OKLAHOMA STATE LOOKING AT THIRD AND TEN. THE ARKANSAS DEFENSE, TALKED A LOT ABOUT THE ARKANSAS OFFENSE. THIS DEFENSE HAS SETTLED IN. >> Dave: HE'S 1 FOR HIS LAST 8 PASSING. SEE IF THEY BRING PRESSURE HERE ON THIRD DOWN AND LONG. RUSHING FORWARD. BOWMAN HITCHING AND DELIVERS TO OWENS OVER THE MIDDLE. DRILLED AT THE 40. WELL SHORT OF THE LINE TO GAIN. DECISION FOR MIKE GUNDY. IT'S EARLY, IT'S STILL THE FIRST QUARTER. FOURTH AND FIVE. >> Dusty: YOU GOT TO PUNT IT. YOU CAN'T GIVE THIS ARKANSAS OFFENSE THAT YOU HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO STOP YET A SHORT FIELD. YOU MINUTE IT. A LONG BALL GAME. TOO EARLY ON YOUR OWN 40 TO GO FOR IT ON FOURTH AND FIVE. >> Dave: HE WILL NOT HAVE TO MAKE THAT DECISION, IT LOOKS LIKE RIGHT NOW, BASED ON THE PLAY CLOCK, GAME CLOCK. >> Dusty: THIS ARKANSAS DEFENSE, JAYDON JOHNSON IN THE HIP OF RASHOD OWENS AND RASHOD OWENS, A BIG-BODY RECEIVER, GETS HIM TO THE GROUND IMMEDIATELY. I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE HANGUP IS. >> Dave: I'M NOT SURE WHY THE PLAY CLOCK DIDN'T START. IT STARTED NOW BUT HE WON'T TO HAVE SNAP IT. HE WILL PUNT BUT THAT WILL COME IN THE SECOND QUARTER. LOOKS LIKE OKLAHOMA STATE TRIED TO PUNT IT BEFORE THE END OF THE QUARTER. BUT DID NOT SNAP IT IN TIME. ARKANSAS WITH ONE OF ITS BEST QUARTERS WE'VE SEEN AGAINST A GOOD TEAM IN A LONG TIME. THIS PRESENTATION OF COLLEGE FOOTBALL CONTINUES AFTER THIS MESSAGE AND A WORD FROM OUR ABC STATIONS. >> Dave: WELCOME BACK TO ESPN'S AFTERNOON COLLEGE FOOTBALL PRESENTED BY TUMS GUMMY BITES. DR PEPPER CHAMPIONSHIP DRIVE GAME OF THE WEEK. NOT MANY PEOPLE EXPECTED THIS, 14-0, ARKANSAS, AFTER ONE QUARTER AGAINST THE NUMBER 16 TEAM IN THE COUNTRY AND ANOTHER PUNT, WES PAHL BOOTING IT AWAY FOR THE COWBOYS. SATEGNA WILL BACK AWAY AND IT WILL BE DOWN TO THE 16 YARD LINE. MOMENTS AGO TAYLOR SPOKE WITH COACH PITTMAN. >> Taylor: WHAT HAS WORKED OFFENSIVELY FOR YOU GUYS. >> YOU KNOW, WE'RE ABLE TO RUN THE FOOTBALL AND WE CAN PLAY ACTION AND PROTECTING IT PET GOOD. THEY DID HAVE A TOTAL BLITZ THAT GOT TO US ON THE FIRST DRIVE BUT WE'VE GOT TO KEEP PLAYING HARD AND GOOD JOB OF DEFENDING. WE'RE KNOCKING DOWN CONTESTED BALLS ON DEFENSE. WE GOT TO GET BETTER PRESSURE ON THE QUARTERBACK. IF NOT HE'LL PICK US APART SO WE HAVE TO GET A LITTLE BETTER PASS RUSH BUT WE'RE DOING A GOOD JOB AGAINST THE RUN. >> Taylor: THANK YOU, DAVE. >> Dave: ALL RIGHTY. 114 RUSHING YARDS FOR ARKANSAS. MAKE THAT ABOUT 134. GAIN OF 14, TRIPPED UP AT THE 30 YARD LINE IS Ja'QUNDEN JACKSON BY CAMERON EPPS. >> Dusty: GOOD PUSH AND GOOD MOVEMENT AND THE NICE CUTBACK LANE. WE TALKED ABOUT THE VISION OF OLLIE GORDON FROM THE ONSET. WE'RE SEEING THE VISION OF Ja'QUNDEN JACKSON AND WHEN YOU RUN THAT ZONE AND YOU GET THAT MOVEMENT AND DEFENSIVE LINE UP FRONT, CUTBACK LANES OPEN UP AND ARKANSAS IS JUST GASHING THIS FRONT OF THE COWBOYS. >> Dave: YOU SEE JACKSON BEING TENDED TO. SHAKEN UP. RODNEY HILL IN THE GAME. PLAY ACTION, GREEN. DUMPS IT OFF AT THE LAST SECOND BEFORE HE'S HIT. THAT'S GOING TO LOSE YARDAGE. HILL MADE THE CATCH. BUT A LOT OF A COUPLE ON THE PLAY. COLLIN OLIVER GOT SOME PRESSURE. FIRST TIME WE CALLED HIS NAME THIS AFTERNOON DUDLEY THEY'VE GOT TO GET COLLIN OLIVER GOING. LAST YEAR SECOND LEVEL LINEBACKER EXCLUSIVELY AT OR AROUND THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE DOING WHAT HE DOES BEST. CREATING DISRUPTION, PRESSURING QUARTERBACKS. INTERESTING THEY HAD SATEGNA LINED UP IN THE BACKFIELD. >> Dave: THAT WAS JUST SMOKE AND MIRRORS TO GET HIM ON THE PERIMETER WITH MOTION AND NOW GREEN THROWS HIGH YOU ABOUT IT'S CAUGHT BY ANDREW ARMSTRONG WHO UNDERNEATH WAS WIDE OPEN. IT'S ARMSTRONG'S FIRST CATCH OF THE YEAR, MISSED LAST WEEK DUE TO INJURY AND GOES FOR 15 YARDS. >> Dusty: OSU DEFENSE, A LOT OF CUSHION OUTSIDE AND SNARE BY ARMSTRONG ELEVATES AND SNATCHES THAT BALL OUT OF THE AIR. NICE JOB AFTER THE CATCH. A LOT OF CUSHION OUTSIDE THERE. PLAYING REALLY SOFT ON THE PERIMETER AGAINST THE ARKANSAS WIDE RECEIVERS. >> Dave: ARMSTRONG A TRANSFER. JUGGLING IT IS ARMSTRONG AFTER HE CAUGHT IT BUT ABLE TO SECURE IT AND GAIN OF ABOUT THREE, MUCH BETTER DEFENSE THAT TIME, CAMERON EPPS OVER THERE FOR OKLAHOMA STATE. TWO MINUTES INTO THE SECOND QUARTER. ARKANSAS UP 14-0 AT MIDFIELD. Ja'QUNDEN JACKSON CHECKING BACK IN FOR THE RAZORBACKS AFTER GETTING SHAKEN UP EARLIER ON THE DRIVE. JACKSON STRAIGHT AHEAD. HE GETS DRILLED AT THE POINT OF ATTACK. NO GAIN ON THE PLAY. KENDAL DANIELS WHO BULKED UP WENT FROM SAFETY TO LINEBACKER STUCK HIS FACE IN THERE. >> Dusty: NICE JOB BY DANIELS, UNACCOUNTED FOR. SAW ON THAT LAST TOUCHDOWN RUN, HE WAS LATE TO GO. NICE JOB OF MAKING THAT PLAY RIGHT AROUND THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE AND FOR BRYAN NARDO, THIS DEFENSE ON THEIR HEELS RIGHT NOW. GOT TO COME UP WITH A STOP. WE'VE SEEN SEVERAL TIMES HERE TODAY THE MOBILITY, SOMETHING YOU HAVE TO BE MINDFUL OF AS A FRONT. >> Dave: THEY BRING PRESSURE. IT'S PICKED UP, THOUGH, AND GREEN COMPLETES IT FOR A FIRST DOWN. SATEGNA ON THE CATCH BEING DRAGGED DOWN BY DYLAN SMITH BUT AFTER 13 YARDS. >> Dusty: THEY BRING PRESSURE AND DIAL IT UP TO GET HOME. DYLAN SMITH JUST A SECOND LATE. AS HE COMES ACROSS AND A GOOD FIND BY TAYLEN GREEN TO SATEGNA. >> Dave: WE DID NOT KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT UP AND DOWN AT BOISE STATE. LAST YEAR ONLY 11 TOUCHDOWNS IN NINE PICKS BUT HE LOOKS READY FOR THE BRIGHT LIGHTS OF THE S.E.C. RIGHT NOW. FINDS AN OPEN RECEIVER AGAIN. SATEGNA, NICE CATCH. HAD TO GO UP THE LADDER TO GET IT, AND IT'S A GAIN OF ABOUT EIGHT OR NINE. >> Dusty: SATEGNA, ONLY 5'11" BUT PLAYING MUCH BIGGER THAN THAT. HIS PASS HIGH, BIG, STRONG HANDS AGAIN. SAW ARMSTRONG EARLIER THIS DRIVE. MAKE A NICE CATCH. GOING UP AND GETTING THE FOOTBALL. EVERYTHING CLICKING HERE FOR BOB PETRINO AND THIS OFFENSE IN THE FIRST HALF. >> Dave: TAYLEN GREEN WON THE MOUNTAIN WEST CHAMPIONSHIP GAME, MVP LAST YEAR. TRANSFERRED TO ARKANSAS. A GUY BOBBY PETRINO WANTED AND THIS IS THE REASON WHY, TALKED TO PETRINO YESTERDAY ABOUT WHEN HE HAD RYAN MALLETT. BECAUSE OF MALLETT'S SIZE THERE WERE FIVE OR SIX GAMES, FIVE OR SIX PLAYS A GAME THAT MALLETT WOULD MAKE THAT HE DIDN'T THINK ANOTHER QUARTERBACK COULD BECAUSE OF HIS SIZE AND NOT JUST AS A THROWER, AS AN ATHLETE OUT IN SPACE AND WE'VE SEEN ALREADY A FEW PLAYS FROM GREEN THAT MAYBE WE WOULDN'T SEE FROM A SMALLER PLAYER IN THE PASSING GAME BUT WITH THAT LONG STRIDE AS A RUNNER. >> Dusty: WE'VE KNOWN ABOUT BOBBY PETRINO'S OFFENSIVE MIND AND WHAT HE'S DONE WITH QUARTERBACKS. TAYLEN GREEN WAS GOOD AT BOISE STATE. THIS IS THE BEST VERSION WE'VE SEEN OF TAYLEN GREEN. >> Dave: LOOKING DEEP, INSTEAD RUNNING BACKWARD. GREEN ON THE MOVE STILL AND THROWS INTO THE END ZONE, OH, THROUGH THE HANDS OF AN OPEN RECEIVER, BRODEN, INCOMPLETE. HOW ABOUT THE ARM STRENGTH OF TAYLEN GREEN, LOOKED LIKE THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN A TOUCHDOWN. >> Dusty: PRESSURE IN HIS FACE IMMEDIATELY. FILLS THAT PRESSURE, BUYS HIMSELF SOME TIME, RETREATS AND AS HE ROLLS, KEEP THOSE EYES DOWN THE FIELD, AND THIS PASS NEARLY CAUGHT BY TYRONE BRODEN. >> Dave: GOOD JOB BY DYLAN SMITH TO STAY WITH HIM THE ENTIRE TIME. >> Dusty: BOY, THAT PASS IS RIGHT -- >> Dave: RIGHT THROUGH. NOW IT'S SECOND AND TEN. RODNEY HILL IN THE GAME AT RUNNING BACK. GREEN KEEPS IT AND GREEN MAULED AT THE 29. TREY RUCKER COMES FLYING IN THERE TO MAKE THE PLAY, THOUGH A SHORT GAIN, MAYBE TWO. >> Dusty: TREY RUCKER WILL FLY DOWNHILL AND COME MAKE THE PLAY. COMES IN OUT OF YOUR SCREEN OFF THE EDGE. WE SEE TAYLEN GREEN, A WIZARD WITH THAT BALL INSIDE. THE MESH POINT, KEEPS IT, BUT TREY RUCKER, 15 TACKLES A WEEK AGO, COMING UP WITH A NICE PHYSICAL TACKLE ON THE QUARTERBACK. >> Dave: 3 OF 4 ON THIRD DOWN AND SPREAD IT OUT AND THIRD AND EIGHT FROM THE 29 COMING UP. GREEN HIT AS HE THROWS AND IT'S PICKED OFF AT THE 30 YARD LINE. KALE SMITH RETURNING IT INSIDE THE ARKANSAS 30 AND THEY'RE GOING TO TAKE IT ALL THE WAY, A POTENTIAL GAME-CHANGING PICK SIX FOR OKLAHOMA STATE. PENALTY MARKER IS DOWN, THOUGH. PENALTY FLAG BACK AT THE 25 ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE FIELD. IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S COMING BACK. >> Referee: THE RESULT OF THE PLAY IS A TOUCHDOWN. OFFENSIVE PASS INTERFERENCE, NUMBER 4, THE PENALTY IS DECLINED. >> Dave: ARKANSAS IS IN DISBELIEF. SAM PITTMAN IS ON THE FIELD SCREAMING AT AN OFFICIAL. ALL THE PLAYERS ASSUMED IT WAS ON THE DEFENSE. THEY WERE BACK AT THE OTHER 30 YARD LINE. BUT IT'S AN OFFENSIVE PENALTY, AND OKLAHOMA STATE'S RIGHT BACK IN THE GAME WITH KALE SMITH WHO WENT TO THE SAME HIGH SCHOOL AS MIKE GUNDY IN OKLAHOMA CITY. GETS THE INTERCEPTION RETURN FOR A SCORE. LOGAN WARD ON FOR THE EXTRA POINT. FLAGS FLY. BALL HAD NOT BEEN SNAPPED. CONTACT WAS MADE. >> Referee: FALSE START, ON THE OFFENSE, THE LEFT GUARD, FIVE-YARD PENALTY, RETRY. >> Dave: OKAY, SO MOVE IT BACK FIVE YARDS. FOR THE 220-POUND PLACEKICKER, LOGAN WARD. WHAT A HUGE CHANGE OF MOMENTUM FOR MIKE GUNDY'S TEAM. KALE SMITH AFTER THE PRESSURE FROM OLIVER, BALL FLUTTERED, PICKED OFF AND RETURNED FOR A SCORE AND IT'S 14-7 "D" WHEN WE TALKED ABOUT IT EARLIER, COLLIN OLIVER, THEIR BEST EDGE RUSHER. SOMETIMES YOU JUST GOT TO WIN COMING OFFER THE EDGE, WATCH THE DIP AS HE GETS TO TAYLEN GREEN WITH THE BIG HIT, GET TO THE QUARTERBACK AND IT'S KALE SMITH WITH THE GIFT IN HIS HANDS, PICKING THEM UP, PUTTING THEM DOWN, SIX ON THE BOARD FOR THE POPES. WE GOT ACTION AND A BIG MATCHUP HERE IN STILLWATER. >> Taylor: JUST MOMENTS AGO, COLLIN OLIVER BEING HELPED INTO THE LOCKER ROOM. HE HELPED FORCE THAT TURNOVER FOR OKLAHOMA STATE. DAVE. >> Dave: A LITTLE TROUBLE WITH TAYLOR'S MIC BUT SAW THE PICTURES OF OLIVER HOBBLING OFF AFTER THAT INTERCEPTION RETURN FOR A TOUCHDOWN THAT HE FORCED. BUILT FOR SUCCESS PRESENTED BY RAM TRUCKS. >> Dusty: BIG HIT ON THE CORNERBACK AND WHAT A PLAY BY KALE SMITH. TAKES IT TO THE HOUSE, COMPLETELY FLIPS AND CHANGES THIS FOOTBALL GAME. THE DEFENSE NEEDED A BIG PLAY. THEY CAME UP WITH A BIG PLAY TO GET THE POKES BACK IN THIS BALL GAME. BOY, COLLIN OLIVER'S STATUS, HIS HEALTH, GOING TO BE A REAL KEY AS THE GAME PROGRESSES. WE GOT NICK MARTIN WHO IS AN EXCELLENT LINEBACKER BUT UP FRONT THE ABILITY TO GET PRESSURE ON THE QUARTERBACK, FEW DO IT BETTER THAN COLLIN OLIVER. >> Dave: THREE-TIME ALL BIG 12th. SWING PASS ON FIRST DOWN, HILL, AND GOOD TACKLE IN THE OPEN FIELD AT THE 27 YARD LINE, SO A GAIN OF TWO OR THREE. CAMERON EPPS ON THE STOP. SEE HOW TAYLEN GREEN RESPONDS, THREW NINE PICKS A YEAR AGO. WHEN HE WAS AT BOISE STATE. HE HAS LOOKED TERRIFIC SO FAR IN THIS GAME, SAVE THE INTERCEPTION. WHICH AGAIN HAD TO DO WITH THE PRESSURE OF OLIVER. SNAP OFF THE MARK SO THAT DISRUPTS THE PLAY AND GREEN STILL ABLE TO GET POSITIVE YARDAGE, RUCKER WITH THE STOP AND A GAIN OF TWO, THIRD DOWN COMING UP, EIGHT-MINUTE MARK, SECOND QUARTER. >> Dusty: OBI EZEIGBO COMING OFF THE EDGE. WE'VE SEEN HIM A COUPLE OF TIMES. MAYBE HE WILL BE THE GUY TO CREATE PENETRATION ATTACKING THE PLAY RIGHT AT THE MESH POINT. TAYLEN GREEN MAKES A SMART PLAY WELL DEFENDED BY THIS DEFENSE. >> Dave: EZEIGBO PLAYED AT GANNON UNIVERSITY WHERE BRYAN NARDO CAME FROM, DIVISION 2 PROGRAM IN ERIE, PENNSYLVANIA, NOW MOVEMENT AND A PENALTY FLAG FLIES IN. >> Referee: FALSE START, OFFENSE, NUMBER 63. FIVE-YARD PENALTY. IT IS THIRD DOWN. >> Dave: THE U.S. OPEN WOMEN'S COLLAPSE IS TODAY 4:00 ON ESPN AND THE APP. JESSICA PEGULA GOING UP AGAINST ARIYNA SABALENKA. BUFFALO BILLS SEASON IS STARTING THIS WEEKEND, PEGULA'S FOLKS OWN THE BILLS. THIRD DOWN AND 11 AND A DEEP THROW, GREEN, TeSLAA PULLS IT IN FOR A FIRST DOWN IN OKLAHOMA STATE TERRITORY WITH TREY RUCKER WRAPPED ALL AROUND HIM, GAIN OF 26. >> Dusty: ANOTHER EXCELLENT JOB. THIS TIME IT'S TeSLAA HIGH-POINTING THIS FOOTBALL AND THE BIG, STRONG HANDS TO BRING IT IN. HE HAD SATEGNA UNDERNEATH. I THOUGHT HE WAS GOING TO GO THAT ROUTE TO PICK UP THE FIRST DOWN. FIRES THAT THING AND THAT DEEP CROSSING ROUTE AND I BIG PICKUP TO MOVE THE CHAINS. >> Dave: FIRST DOWN AT THE 45 YARD LINE. THEY'VE BEEN LIVING IN OKLAHOMA STATE TERRITORY THROUGHOUT THE GAME. JACKSON ON THE CUTBACK. FIRST DOWN AND THEN FINISHES THE RUN BUT FUMBLED THE BALL. LOSES THE BALL AFTER RUNNING INTO A DEFENDER, DYLAN SMITH. THEY ARE BATTLING FOR IT UNDER THE PILE. YOU LOVE THE AGGRESSIVENESS OF JACKSON BUT YOU GOT TO HOLD ON TO THE BALL WHEN YOU'RE GOING TO TAKE ON A DEFENDER LIKE THAT. BACK-TO-BACK TAKEAWAYS FOR THE COWBOY DEFENSE. >> Dusty: AND Ja'QUNDEN JACKSON JUST COMES IN, LOWERS THE SHOULDER, TRIES TO RUN THROUGH DYLAN SMITH AND DYLAN SMITH'S SHOULDER ON THE FOOTBALL, BALL IS OUT. IT WAS A SCRUM. IT WAS SOME FIGHTING FOR THE FOOTBALL. AND IT'S THE PRESEASON ALL-AMERICAN NICK MARTIN COMING UP WITH IT. COWBOYS WITH A COUPLE OF TAKEAWAYS BACK IN THIS GAME. >> Dave: THIS PLAY UNDER REVIEW. BILL, WHAT DID YOU SEE? >> WE HAVE A RUNNER WITH FIRM CONTROL OF THE BALL WHEN HIS KNEE HITS THE GROUND SO REPLAY NEEDS TO TAKE A LOOK AT THIS FROM THAT ANGLE AND GIVE THE BALL BACK TO ARKANSAS. FIRM CONTROL RIGHT HERE, KNEE DOWN,. >> Referee: AFTER REVIEW, THE PLAYER'S KNEE WAS DOWN WITH THE BALL, THEREFORE, IT'S FIRST DOWN FOR ARKANSAS. >> Dave: MATT LOEFFLER, THE REFEREE AND REPLAY CREW SAW WHAT BILL SAW SO ARKANSAS BALL, 16-YARD GAIN AND FIRST DOWN AT THE 28 YARD LINE OF OKLAHOMA STATE. >> Dusty: KNEE DOWN. JACKSON GOING THROUGH DYLAN SMITH AS HE STARTED COMING BACK UP OFF THE GROUND, LOOKED LIKE SMITH, PARFITT OF HIS BODY GOT ON THE FOOTBALL. BALL COMES OUT. DISASTER AVOIDED FOR ARKANSAS AND YET ANOTHER BIG CHUNK RUN FOR THIS HOGS RUSHING ATTACK. >> Dave: GREEN ON THE BOOT. AGAIN, VERY SUCCESSFUL THROWING ON THE RUN. ANDREW ARMSTRONG ON THE CATCH. ARMSTRONG DOWN TO THE 11. 17 YARDS, AGAIN, GETTING GREEN ON THE PERIMETER. >> Dusty: I LOVE THE PLAY ACTION BOOT. GET HIM ON THE PERIMETER. 6'6", HE CAN SURVEY THE FIELD. ARMSTRONG JUST RUNNING AWAY FROM MAN-TO-MAN COVERAGE AND KOBE HYLTON, EASY PITCH AND CATCH. >> Dave: HERE'S Ja'QUNDEN JACKSON, BACK TO THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE AND THAT'S IT. STACKED UP. NO GAIN ON THE PLAY. EZEIGBO IN THERE AGAIN. RUCKER, AS WELL. ARKANSAS, 11 FOR ITS LAST 11. ALMOST ALL OF THAT CAME LAST WEEK AGAINST ARKANSAS-PINE BLUFF SO TAKE IT WITH A GRAIN OF SALT BUT SAM PITTMAN WILL JUST TAKE A PERIOD. BECAUSE THE OFFENSE AT TIMES LAST YEAR REALLY STRUGGLED IN A LOT OF CLOSE GAMES, ESPECIALLY IN THE RED ZONE AND NOT SO FAR THIS YEAR. CHECKING THE PLAY AT THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE. JACKSON WITH ROOM TO THE 5, TO THE END ZONE, HIS THIRD TOUCHDOWN! Ja'QUNDEN JACKSON IS RUNNING ALL OVER THIS OKLAHOMA STATE DEFENSE. >> Dusty: PIT AND PULL HERE. WHAT I LOVE, SEE JOSHUA BRAUN GET OUT IN FRONT AND PULL, TAYLEN GREEN CHECKED INTO THIS. HE SAW SOMETHING FROM THE DEFENSE, HE CHECKS INTO IT, EXCELLENT JOB BY JOSHUA BRAUN PULLING OUT, KICKING OUT, BIG HOLE OPENS UP, AND JACKSON WITH HIS THIRD TOUCHDOWN OF THE AFTERNOON. >> Dave: LAST YEAR AT UTAH, Ja'QUNDEN JACKSON HAD FOUR RUSHING TOUCHDOWNS ALL SEASON. HE'S ALREADY GOT FIVE THIS YEAR ON THE GROUND WITH ARKANSAS ROLLING, 21-7. CALLED A FUMBLE ON THE FIELD INITIALLY AFTER JACKSON LOWERED THE SHOULDER ON THE DEFENDER. BUT REPLAY OVERTURNED IT. BALL BACK TO THE RAZORBACKS. AND SHORTLY THEREAFTER INTO THE END ZONE. >> Dave: ARKANSAS WAS PICKED 14th IN THE S.E.C., ONLY MISSISSIPPI STATE AND VANDERBILT BEHIND THE RAZORBACKS, BUT WHAT A FIRST HALF. ESPECIALLY ON OFFENSE. 307 YARDS FOR OKLAHOMA STATE OR FOR ARKANSAS, RATHER, ONLY 60 FOR OKLAHOMA STATE AS THAT'S RETURNED OUT TO THE 25 BY FREEMAN AND HERE'S KEVIN. >> KEEPING FANS CONNECTED AS WE LOOK AT OUR MULTIVIEW SHOWCASING A BUNCH OF GREAT GAMES ACROSS THE NETWORKS. UPSET BREWING IN STILLWATER. ESPN RIGHT NOW, TULANE, THE UNDERDOG UP BY FOUR AGAINST NUMBER 17 KANSAS STATE. CINCINNATI WITH A TWO-TOUCHDOWN LEAD OVER ON ESPN2 AND A&M A TWO TOUCHDOWN LEAD AGAINST McNEESE ON THE S.E.C. NETWORK AND SYRACUSE, AN UNDERDOG LEADING GEORGIA TECH ON THE ACC NETWORK. BACK TO YOU. >> Dave: HERE'S OLLIE GORDON, ONLY HIS FIFTH CARRY BUT HAS SEVEN YARDS. INJURY UPDATE FROM TAYLOR. >> Taylor: COLLIN OLIVER, HE WAS HELPED OFF THE FIELD CURRENTLY GETTING X-RAYS ON HIS LOWER RIGHT LEG. WE WILL KEEP YOU UPDATED WHEN WE KNOW MORE. >> Dave: YOU SAID BEST DEFENSIVE PLAYER NOT AVAILABLE RIGHT NOW. BEST OFFENSIVE PLAYER FOR OKLAHOMA STATE, OLLIE GORDON, NO ROOM TO RUN, STILL TRYING TO POUND IT AGAINST AN EIGHT-MAN FRONT FOR ARKANSAS AND THAT WAS A LITTLE BETTER BUT JUST THREE YARDS, ARKANSAS SWARMING TO THE BALL, ERIC GREGORY THERE FIRST. THIRD DOWN. >> Dusty: SO GOOD ON THE INTERIOR. CAMERON BALL ON FIRST DOWN. ERIC GREGORY TAKING UP A DOUBLE TEAM. NO MOVEMENT FROM THIS OKLAHOMA STATE OFFENSIVE LINE AND NOWHERE TO GO WITH THE FOOTBALL FOR OLLIE GORDON. >> Dave: THIRD DOWN AND FIVE, THEY'RE 0 FOR 4 ON THIRD DOWN SO FAR. >> Dusty: BRENNAN PRESLEY, VETERAN PLAYER, MAKES SO MANY PLAYS, SHORT AND THIRD DOWN HERE. IMPORTANT DRIVE FOR OKLAHOMA STATE HERE TO CLOSE OUT THE HALF. >> Dave: THERE'S SO MUCH HYPE. WE GOT TO STILLWATER, EVERYBODY TALKING ABOUT HOW LOUD THIS STADIUM IS GOING TO BE. IT HAS BEEN QUIET. WE'VE NEVER SEEN IT THIS QUIET. NO PLAY, THERE WAS A WHISTLE BEFORE THE SNAP. >> Referee: BEFORE THE SNAP, OKLAHOMA STATE TAKES THEIR FIRST CHARGED TIME-OUT OF THE HALF. >> Dave: THAT WILL LEAVE THEM WITH TWO TIME-OUTS BUT REMEMBER NOW YOU GET AN EXTRA TIMEOUT IN COLLEGE FOOTBALL WITH A TWO-MINUTE TIME-OUT SO NOT AS COSTLY TO BURN A TIME-OUT IN THAT SITUATION. HERE ARE THE FEATURED GAMES ON ESPN+ TONIGHT, MISSOURI TAKING ON BUFFALO. FLORIDA WILL FACE SANFORD AND LSU HOSTING NICHOLLS STATE. GO TO ESPN.COM OR DOWNLOAD THE ESPN APP. >> Dusty: HOW FLORIDA BOUNCES BACK AFTER THAT ROUGH GAME LAST WEEK AGAINST MIAMI. AND A ROUGH YEAR LAST YEAR, THE ONE S.E.C. WIN FOR THEM LAST YEAR. A DIFFERENT ARKANSAS FOOTBALL TEAM THAN THE ONE WE SAW A YEAR AGO. YOU COULD SELL SAM PITTMAN FELT GOOD ABOUT THIS TEAM WHEN WE TALKED TO HIM YESTERDAY AND SAID HE BELIEVE THERE IS THIS TEAM. HOPE LAST YEAR, BELIEF THIS YEAR FOR THE TEAM. >> Dave: THIRD DOWN AND FIVE AND BOWMAN SIDEARMS IT. INCOMPLETE IN TRAFFIC TRYING TO CONNECT WITH STRIBLING. TWO DEFENDERS CLOSING ON THE RECEIVER, ANOTHER PUNT COMING UP FOR OKLAHOMA STATE. >> Dusty: EVERYTHING SO TIGHT, WELL CONTESTED. BRAXTON, A TUG ON THE INSIDE. GETS THAT PASS BREAKUP. JUST NO SEPARATION WHATSOEVER. GOOD ANTICIPATION OF THAT ROUTE BY JAYLON BRAXTON AND A QUICK THREE AND OUT, AND HERE'S THE THING, THAT DEFENSE BEEN TIRED, GETTING BANGED UP ALL FIRST HALF, BACK ON THE FIELD HERE ONCE AGAIN. >> Dave: END OVER END, SATEGNA UNDER IT AND A FAIR CATCH MADE AT THE 30 YARD LINE. I LOVE WHAT YOU SAID ABOUT SAM PITTMAN. OUR CONVERSATION WITH HIM YESTERDAY. YOU COULD TELL THERE WAS CONFIDENCE. HE SAID I THINK I KNOW WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN TOMORROW. I'M NOT GOING TO TELL YOU GUYS BUT I THINK I KNOW AND I'M GUESSING HE ENVISIONED THIS AND THE PHYSICALITY OF ARKANSAS ON FULL DISPLAY. THEY CAN DO WHATEVER THEY WANT RIGHT NOW. THEY'RE JUST LEANING ON THAT "D" LINE. >> Dusty: MIKE GUNDY TOLD US HE EXPECTED A PHYSICAL FOOTBALL GAME AND KNEW WHAT ARKANSAS WAS GOING TO COME IN AND TRY TO DO AND THE QUESTION WAS HOW WOULD HIS TEAM STAND UP? HE FELT GOOD ABOUT HIGGS FOOTBALL TEAM BUT THE PHYSICALITY IN THE TRENCHES HAS BEEN SUCH A BIG ADVANTAGE FROM THIS ARKANSAS TEAM IN THE FIRST HALF, JUST DOMINATION ALONG THE FRONT. >> Dave: TRY TO RUN IT AGAIN. JACKSON, THIS TIME LOSES YARDAGE, A RARE NEGATIVE PLAY FOR ARKANSAS' RUSHING ATTACK. >> Taylor: YOU MENTIONED THE DOMINANCE IN THE TRENCHES FOR ARKANSAS. ALSO PAY ATTENTION TO THE WAY THE O-LINE IS PLAYING FOR TAYLEN GREEN. WHEN I WAS TALKING TO SAM PITTMAN BEFORE THE GAME, HE SAID THE LEADERSHIP OF TAYLEN GREEN HAS BEEN A DIFFERENCEMAKER FOR THIS TEAM. >> Dave: THEY'LL THROW IT HERE. TAKING A SHOT DOWNFIELD, AND IT'S OUT OF BOUNDS. INCOMPLETE. BRODEN MADE THE CATCH, OF COURSE, THE SIDELINE IS SAYING HE GOT A FOOT DOWN OR THE OFFICIAL SAYS NO. >> Dusty: KOBE HYLTON STRIDE FOR STRIDE. GIVING UP A LOT OF SIZE TO BRODEN. DID HE GET THAT FOOT? WELL, IT WAS CLOSE. NO. I THINK BY THE TIME THE BALL ARRIVED HIS FOOT WAS UP AND OUT OF BOUNDS. >> Dave: BACK TO TAYLOR'S POINT, SAM PITTMAN REITERATED TO US YESTERDAY ABOUT THE LEADERSHIP OF TAYLEN GREEN, SAID IT TOOK A COUPLE WEEKS, BUT IT BECAME HIS TEAM, NOT HIS OFFENSE, HIS TEAM. HE IS THE GUY THAT THE ENTIRE TEAM LOOKS TO FOR LEADERSHIP, AND HIS BEST LEADERSHIP HAS BEEN HIS PLAY IN THE GAME. HE GOT PRESSURE UP THE MIDDLE THAT TIME. HAD TO HURRY THAT FLOW, AND IT'S INCOMPLETE. IT WAS KENDAL DANIELS THAT GOT TO GREEN AND SO IT'S FOURTH DOWN AND A RARE ARKANSAS PUNT. >> Dusty: THEY NEEDED TO GET A RUSH, NEEDED TO GET THE OUT OF THE HANDS OF TAYLEN GREEN TO COME RIGHT FROM THE INSIDE. NICE JOB WINNING INSIDE. NOT MANY OKLAHOMA STATE RUSHERS HAVE WON SO FAR TODAY, COME UNDER PRESSURE, NICE LITTLE DIP. GET TO THE QUARTERBACK. TAYLEN GREEN FORCED TO GET RID OF THAT FOOTBALL, MUCH-NEEDED STOP FOR THE POKES' DEFENSE. >> Dave: BALE ON TO PUNT AND HITS THIS ONE HARD AND DEEP, BACKING UP INSIDE THE 15 YARD LINE AND OUT OF BOUNDS. SO NOT MUCH FOR PRESLEY ON THAT RETURN. 59-YARD PUNT, NFL WEEK ONE ALREADY UNDER WAY. "THE NFL COUNTDOWN" CREW, A SIT-DOWN WITH DAK, THAT STARTS 10:00 A.M. EASTERN TIME AND THEN MONDAY NIGHT, AARON RODGERS BACK, JETS IN THE BAY AREA TO FACE THE 49ers. >> Dusty: GOING TO BE A GOOD ONE MONDAY NIGHT. NOT A WEEK ONE JETS FAN GOING TO REMEMBER FROM A SEASON AGO, OPENING POSSESSION, TEARING THAT ACHILLES, THAT NINERS DEFENSE GOING TO PUT THEM TO THE TEST. YOU'RE BACK ON THE ROAD TOMORROW. IN BUFFALO WITH THOSE CARDINALS. >> Dave: NFL SEASON IS HERE. GREAT GAME LAST NIGHT, INJURY FOR JORDAN LOVE AS THEY TRY TO RUN THE BALL HERE WITH PRESLEY TRYING TO MIX IT UP, GETTING PRESLEY INVOLVED IN THE RUN GAME AND THAT GOES NOWHERE. TACKLED BY BRAD SPENCE. >> Dusty: JUNCAJ IN THERE AS WELL, TRANSFER FROM ALBANY. TRAVIS WILLIAMS THOUGHT HE WOULD HAVE A BIG IMPACT ON THE DEFENSE, NICE JOB SETTING THAT EDGE. >> Dave: SECOND AND 11. CAUGHT, CABBINESS, KNOCKED OUT OF BOUNDS AT THE 24. SEVEN-YARD GAIN, THIRD DOWN COMING UP. TRAVIS WILLIAMS, YOU MENTIONED HIM EARLIER, SECOND YEAR, HE ACTUALLY PLAYED FOR BOBBY PETRINO WITH THE FALCONS. I KNOW THAT WAS A SHORT STINT FOR BOTH IN 2007 WHEN HE PLAYED AT ALABAMA IN COLLEGE, BOBBY PETRINO WAS THE OFFENSIVE COORDINATOR. WILLIAMS WAS A LINEBACKER. WAS WITH GUS MALZAHN ON MALZAHN'S STAFF AT BOTH AUBURN AND UCF AND IS ONE OF THE BRIGHT, YOUNG DEFENSIVE MINES IN COLLEGE FOOTBALL PUTTING ON A CLINIC RIGHT NOW. >> Dave: GOT THE TACO BELL LIVEMAS STUDENT SECTION. DOWNLOAD THE APP TO LEARN MORE. DAVE PASCH, DUSTY DVORCHAK TAYLOR McGREGOR BACK HERE IN STILLWATER. FANS HAVE NOT HAD A LOT TO CHEER ABOUT. NO FIRST DOWNS IN THE SECOND QUARTER. IN FACT, THE LAST ONE CAME AT THE SIX-MINUTE MARK OF THE FIRST BUT THEY DO GET A CONVERSION HERE ON A PASS TO STRIBLING TO THE 30 YARD LINE. STILL HAVE TWO TIME-OUTS. 1:55 ON THE CLOCK. >> Dusty: SMART BY STRIBLING. HE SITS DOWN IN THE OPEN SPACE AND GOOD FIND FOR BOWMAN. >> Dave: THE CLOCK WILL STOP TO RESET THE CHAINS AND BOWMAN GOING DOWNTOWN, OVERTHROWS HIS MAN, INTERCEPTED BY SINGLETARY AT THE 35 YARD LINE. >> Dusty: THERE WAS A LOT OF TRUST BETWEEN ALAN BOWMAN AND HIS RECEIVERS. THEY'LL TAKE THEIR SHOTS, AND JAHEIM SINGLETARY JUST DOES AN EXCELLENT JOB IDENTIFYING THIS BALL IN THE AIR, GOING UP AND JUST MAKING A PLAY. THIS IS OUTSTANDING JOB OVER THE TOP. SEE RASHOD OWENS TRYING TO FIGHT FOR POSITION. MISTIMES HIS JUMP AND IT'S SINGLETARY WITH THE TAKEAWAY. >> Dave: NOW A CHANCE FOR ARKANSAS TO ADD MORE POINTS TO ITS LEAD BEFORE HALFTIME. 1:38. THREE TIME-OUTS LEADING 21-7. THE ONLY SCORE FOR OKLAHOMA STATE WAS ON DEFENSE. TAYLEN GREEN STEPPING UP IN TROUBLE, SACKED. HE TRIED TO GET RID OF THE BALL AT THE LAST SECOND, AND THEY'RE GOING TO RULE THEM DOWN AT THE 27 YARD LINE. EZEIGBO GOT PRESSURE. >> Dusty: THEY WANT TO THROW A SCREEN TO THE NEAR SIDE. TRY TO SET IT UP FOR Ja'QUNDEN JACKSON AND WAS WELL DEFENDED. I THINK THAT KNEE WAS DOWN, DAVE. BEFORE THE BALL COMES OUT. I THINK THAT'S PROPERLY CALLED ON THE FIELD AS A SACK. >> Dave: YEAH, LOSS OF SEVEN. ON THE PLAY. ALL RIGHT. LET'S CHECK IN WITH KEVIN IN THE STUDIO. "STATEFARM HALFTIME REPORT" AND FIVE TEAMS IN THE TOP 25 TRAILING IN THIS NOON WINDOW. TEXAS DOMINATING MICHIGAN. PENN STATE, A FIVE-TOUCHDOWN FAVORITE LOSING AT HOME TO BOWLING GREEN. MEANWHILE, ARKANSAS, THE PHYSICALITIES IS WHAT IS STANDING OUT. >> AS MUCH AS WE MADE OF THAT, IT'S GOOD TO SEE THE HOGS ARE STILL A PHYSICAL FOOTBALL TEAM. THE IDENTITY OF THEM IS STILL KNOCKING YOU OFF THE FOOTBALL. >> ALL PHASES PLAYS WELL IN STILLWATER. SEE YOU AT THE HALF. BACK TO DAVE, DUSTY AND TAYLOR. >> Dave: AND TALKING WITH SAM PITTMAN YESTERDAY, HE ACKNOWLEDGED THE PRESSURE THAT'S ON HIM AND SAID, I DON'T CARE. HE SAID, IT'S ABOUT US AS A TEAM. I'M NOT WORRIED ABOUT WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN TO ME IN SEASON, NEXT SEASON. I'M FOCUSED ON TODAY AND HIS PLAYERS ARE PROVING THAT THAT'S CERTAINLY THE CASE AS TAYLEN GREEN GETS CRUNCHED AT THE 32 YARD LINE BY NICK MARTIN. GREEN IS A BIG GUY AND ABSORBED THE BIG HIT. >> Dusty: IF OKLAHOMA STATE WANTS TO CALL A TIME-OUT HERE, THIRD AND 14 BUT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE THEY'RE GOING TO. >> Dave: STILL ONE MORE SNAP FOR ARKANSAS THOUGH. >> Dusty: THIRD AND 14. ARKANSAS IS GOOD WITH WHAT THEY'VE SEEN IN THE FIRST HALF BUT OKLAHOMA STATE JUST KIND OF ALLOWING THIS CLOCK TO RUN DOWN. MIKE GUNDY IS SAYING, LET'S JUST RALLY AT HALFTIME. >> Dave: THEY'LL THROW IT, THOUGH AND SETTING UP A SCREEN. BLOCKERS OUT THERE FOR Ja'QUNDEN JACKSON. JACKSON CLOSE TO A FIRST DOWN, ONLY FIVE SECONDS TO GO IN THE HALF AND A TIME-OUT CALLED BY SAM PITTMAN. THE BALL SPOTTED AT THE 45 RIGHT AT THE LINE TO GAIN. I MEAN, EVEN IF IT'S FOURTH DOWN YOU COULD GO FOR IT AND THROW A HAIL MARY. >> Dusty: NICE JOB SETTING UP THE SCREEN. TRIED TO SET IT UP ON FIRST DOWN. WELL DEFENDED. SEE THE BIG BOYS GETTING OUT IN FRONT WITH SPACE AND TO YOUR POINT, NOW YOU AT LEAST HAVE A CHANCE TO TAKE A SHOT AT THE END ZONE IF YOU'RE ARKANSAS. >> Dave: FIRST OR FOURTH DOWN IS PROBABLY THE SAME PLAY WITH FIVE SECONDS LEFT ALTHOUGH ARKANSAS HAS A TIME-OUT AND MAYBE YOU CAN GET SOMETHING TO THE SIDELINE AND ARE MARKING IT AS A FIRST AND TEN. YOU CAN MAYBE GET AN ADDITIONAL FIVE TO EIGHT YARDS WITH A QUICK THROW TO THE SIDELINE OR DO YOU NOT EVEN TAKE THE CHANCE AND JUST CHUCK IT DOWNFIELD? GREEN CERTAINLY HAS THE ARM STRENGTH TO GET IT THERE. OKLAHOMA STATE SENDING FIVE DEFENDERS BACK NEAR THE GOAL LINE. GREEN DROPPING BACK AND THROWS IT UNDERNEATH ARMSTRONG. THE CLOCK IS AT ZERO SO HE'S GOT TO SCORE. AND HE GETS TACKLED AT THE 20 AND THE FIRST HALF COMES TO AN END. ARKANSAS DOMINATING ON THE ROAD IN STILLWATER. 21-7. ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE BREAK IT'S THE "STATE FARM HALFTIME REPO >> Announcer: THIS HALFTIME REPORT IS PRESENTED BY STATE FARM, LIKE A GOOD NEIGHBOR, STATE FARM IS THERE. >>> OH, AARON RODGERS BACK IN THE BAY AREA AND HAS HAD TROUBLE WITH SAN FRANCISCO. CAN HE PLAY MORE >> Announcer: WELCOME BACK TO THE DR PEPPER CHAMPIONSHIP DRIVE GAME OF THE WEEK. >> Dave: WELCOME BACK TO ESPN'S AFTERNOON COLLEGE FOOTBALL PRESENTED BY TUMS GUMMY BITES. FROM STILLWATER, OKLAHOMA, BOONE PICKENS STADIUM, YOU'RE WATCHING THE BIG 12 ON ESPN. ARKANSAS ON THE ROAD TRYING TO GET ONE OF ITS BIGGER WINS OF THE SAM PITTMAN ERA LEADING OKLAHOMA STATE 21-7. DAVE PASCH, DUSTY DVORCHAK AND TAYLOR McGREGOR. THIS IS HOW BAD IT WAS FOR OKLAHOMA STATE IN THE FIRST HALF. ITS DEFENSE HAD MORE POINTS AND ALMOST AS MANY YARDS AS THE OFFENSE DID. YEP ONLY DOWN TWO SCORES BUT ARKANSAS COMPLETELY DOMINANT HALF. >> Dusty: ALL ABOUT THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE AND KNEW THAT COMING INTO THE BALL GAME BUT THAT'S WHAT ARKANSAS WANTED TO ESTABLISH, A LINE OF SCRIMMAGE AND OLLIE GORDON, SO MUCH HYPE AND TALK ABOUT HIM. HOW WOULD THAT HOG DEFENSE DO? THEY HELD UP. THEY'RE DROPPING DOWN EXTRA GUYS IN THE BOX AND NOWHERE FOR OLLIE GORDON TO GO WITH THE FOOTBALL AND, BOY, IT WAS A GREAT HALF FOR THE RUSHING ATTACK OF THE RAZORBACKS. THE OFFENSIVE LINE DOMINANT, TIGHT ENDS GETTING UP ON CORNERS. EVERYTHING GOING RIGHT. Ja'QUNDEN JACKSON, ONE OF THE BIG STORY LINES HERE IN THIS ONE, 90 YARDS ON THE GROUND AND YOU JUST SAW THERE, ONE OF THREE RUSHING TOUCHDOWNS FOR THE ARKANSAS BACKS. >> Dave: 73 YARDS FOR THE DEFENSE ON THE PICK SIX, COLLIN OLIVER FORCED THAT INTERCEPTION WITH A BIG HIT. GOT HURT ON THAT PLAY. WE HAVE NOT SEEN HIM BACK SINCE. WE'LL SEE IF HE'S OUT THERE FOR THE DEFENSE FOR OKLAHOMA STATE WHICH NEEDS A QUICK STOP, SOMETHING THEY HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO DO AGAINST TAYLEN GREEN AND THE ARKANSAS OFFENSE. SATEGNA RETURNING IT FOR THE RAZORBACKS AND GETS PUMMELED AT THE 15 YARD LINE. >> Dusty: THAT'S THE START THAT MIKE GUNDY WANTED. SEE A LITTLE FIRE FROM THE COWBOYS ON THE KICKOFF TEAM COMING DOWN, A BIG HIT DELIVERED TO TRY TO SET THE TONE THIS SECOND HALF. >> Dave: POASA UTO, TERRIFIC SPECIAL TEAMS PLAYER WITH THE KNOCKDOWN. ARKANSAS WITH A FIRST DOWN ON ITS 16 YARD LINE. SEE THE NUMBERS FOR TAYLEN GREEN, THE INTERCEPTION AGAIN BECAUSE OF THE HIT BY OLIVER. GREEN WILL KEEP IT HERE, AND CAN'T SPIN AWAY FROM RUCKER. PICKUP OF THREE ON THE PLAY. >> Dusty: NICE JOB BY TREY RUCKER COMING UP IN THE ALLEY, GETTING TAYLEN GREEN TO THE GROUND. A GUY WHO PLAYS WITH RECKLESS ABANDON, THROWING HIS BODY AROUND. BIG WEEK NUMBER ONE, NICE JOB IN RUN SUPPORT ON FIRST DOWN. >> Dave: 47th MEETING BETWEEN THE SCHOOLS, FIRST SINCE 1980, THOUGH. ONLY 180 MILES SEPARATE FAYETTEVILLE AND STILLWATER. HANDOFF TO JORDAN ANTHONY, THE WIDE RECEIVER, OKLAHOMA STATE NOT FOOLED. GOOD TACKLE AT THE 21 YARD LINE SO A SHORT GAIN, CRITICAL THIRD DOWN COMING UP. >> Dusty: AGAIN, TREY RUCKER COMING DOWNHILL, NICK MARTIN CLEANING IT UP WITH PURSUIT TO THE FOOTBALL BY THE COWBOYS, THIRD DOWN WAS AN ISSUE IN THE FIRST HALF, 5 OF 8 FOR ARKANSAS. BRYAN NARDO DIALS SOMETHING UP TO COME AFTER TAYLEN GREEN. >> Dave: BOBBY PETRINO ON THE OTHER SIDE HAS BEEN CALLING A TERRIFIC GAME SO FAR. GREEN THROWING, OPEN RECEIVER, FIRST DOWN CATCH, ANDREW ARMSTRONG, JUST PITCH AND CATCH ON THAT THIRD DOWN AND FIVE TO MOVE THE STICKS. >> Dusty: THE TIMING, SO GOOD BETWEEN TAYLEN GREEN AND ANDREW ARMSTRONG. EXCELLENT ROUTE. CAM SMITH UNABLE TO PLANT DRIVE, EASY PITCH AND CATCH AS YOU MENTIONED DAVE PASCH. NICE JOB. >> Dave: ARMSTRONG, 6'4", TRANSFER FROM TEXAS A&M COMMERCE, MISSED WEEK ONE DUE TO INJURY. GREEN BACK TO THROW WITH TIME. FINDS ARMSTRONG AGAIN AND FINALLY HOG-TIED AT THE 46, 15 MORE YARDS, HERE'S TAYLOR. >> Taylor: WE HAVE TO GET THE RUN GAME GOING IS WHAT MIKE GUNDY MADE CLEAR AT HALF. ARKANSAS CAME IN WITH A GOOD PLAN STAYING IN THE MIDDLE SO NEED TO GET OLLIE GORDON OUT ON THE PERIMETER AND GET HIM IN SPACE TO GET THE RUN GAME GOING AND SAM PITTMAN SAID WE ARE COVERING THEM LIKE A BLANKET. SUPER PROUD OF THE WAY HIS DEFENSE IS PLAYING BUT HAS TO BE READY FOR THE EXPLOSIVE PLAYS KNOWING OKLAHOMA STATE NEEDS TO GET BACK INTO THIS GAME. >> Dave: ARKANSAS WASN'T ABLE TO FINISH GAMES LAST YEAR, LOST A LOT OF CLOSE ONES. CAN THEY DO IT HERE WEEK TWO OF 2024? BRINGING ON THE OUTSIDE, SHOVED OUT OF BOUNDS NEAR MIDFIELD BY KORIE BLACK SO A PICKUP OF FOUR ON THE GROUND FOR GREEN. >> Dusty: WE'VE SEEN A LITTLE BIT OF EVERYTHING FROM TATE RODEMAKER -- TAYLEN GREEN. MAKING NICE THROWS DOWN THE FIELD FROM THE POCKET ESPECIALLY WHEN HE GETS OUT ON THE PERIMETER AND HE IS JUST SO DIFFICULT TO BOTTLE UP. YOU GIVE HIM ANY ROOM TO RUN AND HE'S GOING TO MAKE YOU PAY, NOTHING THERE INITIALLY AND HE PICKS UP FOUR YARDS ON FIRST DOWN. >> Dave: SEE THE RUSHING YARDS AROUND 300 YARDS OF TOTAL OFFENSE. GREEN WITH A DEFENDER IN HIS FACE GETS RID OF IT. DANGEROUS THROW AS HE JUST PUT IT UP FOR GRABS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FIELD. NICK MARTIN HAD PRESSURE. THIRD DOWN AND SIX. >> Dusty: COMING OFF THE EDGE UNACCOUNTED FOR. GOING TO BE ABLE TO GET HOME. NOBODY ABLE TO SEE IF TAYLEN GREEN JUST GETS RID OF THE FOOTBALL. NOWHERE TO GO. GOOD COVERAGE DOWN THE FIELD. THIRD DOWN ONCE AGAIN. WE'VE SEEN THIS ARKANSAS TEAM SO GOOD THROUGHOUT THE COURSE OF THIS GAME. >> Dave: 6 OF 9 FOR THE RAZORBACKS ON THIRD DOWN. NEED TO GET TO THE 44 OF OKLAHOMA STATE. GREEN'S PASS KNOCKED AWAY, INCOMPLETE. INTENDED FOR LUKE HASZ AND DYLAN SMITH MADE THE PLAY. FIRST TIME WE'VE CALLED HASZ'S NAME, TIGHT END THEY'RE HIGH ON AND WENT TO HIM THERE. HE MIGHT HAVE BEEN SHORT OF THE LINE TO GAIN ANYWAY. AND HE CAUGHT THE BALL. >> Dusty: GOOD ANTICIPATION BY DYLAN SMITH SITTING BACK IN ZONE COVERAGE, READS THE QUARTERBACK'S EYES. COMES UP AND MAKES A NICE PLAY WITH HIS LEFT HAND TO GET THAT BALL LOOSE. >> Dave: BUT THE COWBOYS GET THE STOP FORCING AN ARKANSAS PUNT FROM MIDFIELD. DEVIN BALE PINNED OKLAHOMA STATE IN THE FIRST HALF KICKING FROM ABOUT THE SAME SPOT. SEE IF HE CAN DO IT AGAIN. A LITTLE SHORTER PUNT AND A FAIR CATCH MADE AT THE 9 YARD LINE BY PRESLEY. WE'LL SEE WHAT KIND OF ADJUSTMENTS MIKE GUNDY MADE, WHETHER THEY'RE IMPACTFUL WHEN WE COME BACK TO STILLWATER . >> Announcer: ABC COLLEGE FOOTBALL PRESENTED BY TUMS GUMMY BITES IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY RAM TRUCKS, BUILT TO SERVE. >> Dave: DAVE PASCH, DUSTY DVORCHAK, TAYLOR McGREGOR BACK IN STILLWATER, OKLAHOMA. THE 11th PLAY THEY'VE RUN SINCE THE MIDDLE OF THE FIRST QUARTER. KITBACK RUN BY OLLIE GORDON AND ONLY GOES FOR A COUPLE. SOREY THERE. COMING INTO THE SEASON AFTER LEADING THE COUNTRY IN RUSHING A YEAR AGO AND HE'S GOT LESS THAN 15 YARDS IN THIS GAME. >> Dusty: WE TALK ABOUT THE DEFENSIVE LINE BUT TRUST YOUR CORNERS OUTSIDE IN MAN-TO-MAN SITUATIONS, THEY'VE HELD UP REALLY FIRM IN THAT DEPARTMENT AS WELL. >> Dave: BOWMAN, THEY GET HIM OUT ON THE PERIMETER TO THROW THE BALL, FLIPS IT DOWNFIELD. NICE CATCH, STRIBLING, FIRST DOWN BEFORE HE STEPS OUT AFTER A PICKUP OF 18 AT THE 30. >> Dusty: NICE MOVE BY ALAN BOWMAN. OVER OR UNDER THE DEFENDER, A MUCH-NEEDED COMPLOOEGS TO STRIBLING. BIGGEST COMPLETION OF THE GAME. >> Dave: THE PREVIOUS ONE WAS 12 YARDS. THEY GO BACK TO THE RUSHING ATTACK OFF THE LEFT SIDE WITH GORDON. AND, AGAIN, JUST NOT MUCH THERE ON THE GROUND FOR OLLIE GORDON. BALL ON THE TACKLE. PICKUP OF ONE ON THE PLAY. OKLAHOMA STATE GOING WITH TEMPO AS USUAL. BOWMAN THROWING, AND A RECEIVER COMING BACK TO THE BALL TO MAKE THE CATCH FOR A FIRST DOWN AT THE 42. IT'S RASHOD OWENS, TEN YARDS THERE FOR OKLAHOMA STATE. >> Dusty: A LOT OF CUSHION OUTSIDE OVER THERE. JAHEIM SINGLETARY GIVING A LOT OF CUSHION, NICE FIND. >> Dave: BOWMAN TO THROW AGAIN, TAKES OFF ON THE QUARTERBACK DRAW, PUTS HIS HEAD DOWN AND DIVES TO THE 47. BOWMAN, 24 YEARS OF AGE IN HIS SEVENTH COLLEGE SEASON. HE'S ENGAGED. HE'LL BE MARRIED IN MARCH OF 2025. STARTED HIS CAREER AT TEXAS TECH THEN MICHIGAN, NOW HERE IN STILLWATER, AND HE'S STARTING TO GET COOKING HERE FINDING OWENS DOWNFIELD. THE 35 YARD LINE OF ARKANSAS, BEST DRIVE FOR THE COWBOYS SINCE THE EARLY GOING. >> Dusty: UTILIZING TEMPO AND GOING REALLY FAST, DEEP DIG ROUTE OPEN THERE FOR RASHOD OWENS, NICE ROUTE, NICE THROW. >> Dave: IN RHYTHM, BOWMAN TO THROW AGAIN. PRESLEY ON THE CATCH. ANOTHER OKLAHOMA STATE FIRST DOWN. GAIN OF 12 AT THE 22. >> Dusty: OFFENSE IS TIRED OUT THERE. A LOT OF SPACE, GUYS AREN'T MOVING QUITE AS QUICK IN THE SECONDARY. QUICK SPEED OUT FROM THE SLOT. LIKE BRENNAN PRESLEY, HIS OFFENSIVE ROLE. >> Dave: THROWING IT DOWNFIELD INTO THE END ZONE, INCOMPLETE. GOING FOR STRIBLING, BRAXTON IN COVERAGE. JUST COULD NOT CONNECT THERE. >> Dusty: A LOT OF AIR UNDERNEATH THE BALL. ESPECIALLY WHEN IT'S SENT THERE FOR STRIBLING. THE FULL EXTENSION, UNABLE TO BRING IT IN. >> Dave: HARD TO TELL IF THE BALL HIT THE GROUND WHEN YOU SAW THAT RICOCHET AND HIT THE LEG OF A DEFENDER, WHETHER THAT WAS A LIVE BALL POTENTIALLY PICKED OFF. SESI VAILAHI IS IN THE GAME AS RUNNING BACK. DROPPING IT TO THE TIGHT END AND BREAKS A TACKLE AND FINALLY OUT OF BOUNDS. TYLER FOSTER FORMER WALK-ON AT OHIO. THEY WILL SAY HE STEPPED OUT SHY OF THE LINE TO GAIN AND WENT OUT EARLIER AT THE 13. >> Dusty: NICE JOB BY BOWMAN SELLING THE FAKE. EXCELLENT AFTER THE CATCH. >> Dave: THIRD DOWN AND ONE. STILL PLENTY OF TIME ON THE PLAY CLOCK. GETS THE CARRY, SLAMMED DOWN CLOSE TO THE LINE TO GAIN AT THE 13 YARD LINE. TACKLED BY LANDON JACKSON. FIRST TEAM ALL S.E.C. A YEAR AGO, 6'7", FOURTH DOWN, JACKSON MADE THE STOP AND OKLAHOMA STATE GOING FOR IT. AND IT IS BOWMAN. A LITTLE PUSH FROM BALAHI AT THE LAST SECOND. THEY DO HERE. >> Dusty: OLLIE GORDON CAME BACK IN. RED ZONE, THEY LIKE WHAT THEY HAVE FROM SESI. THREE FOR OLLIE GORDON. >> Dave: MIDWAY POINT OF THE THIRD QUARTER AND FRESH SET OF DOWNS. BOWMAN TO THROW FROM THE POCKET OVER THE MIDDLE. PRESLEY ON THE CATCH, THROWN DOWN BY SOREY. FANS DIDN'T LIKE THE TACKLE BUT DIDN'T LOOK LIKE THERE WAS A FACE MASK. A GAIN OF ABOUT THREE. >> Dusty: GOT SPUN AROUND AFTER SOREY GRABBED UP TOP. I WAS UNABLE TO SEE IF IT WAS ON THE FACE MASK. NO. BY THE SHOULDER PAD. IT LOOKED LIKE IT FROM THE SIDE THE WAY HE WHIPPED DOWN. >> Dave: OLLIE GORDON BACK IN THE GAME, DUSTY FOR SECOND AND EIGHT AT THE 9 YARD LINE. PLAY 13 OF THIS DRIVE. A PERSONNEL TIGHT END FULLBACK IN THE GAME FOR THE COWBOYS. >> Dusty: I LIKE THE PLAY ACTION OUT OF THIS, AS WELL. >> Dave: HERE'S A FADE TO THE END ZONE AND IT IS CAUGHT, TOUCHDOWN. BRENNAN PRESLEY. A HUGE GRAB, OKLAHOMA STATE BACK WITHIN A SCORE. >> Referee: PERSONAL FOUL, ILLEGAL BLOCK. ON THE OFFENSE, NUMBER 38, 15-YARD PENALTY FROM THE PREVIOUS SPOT, THIRD DOWN. >> Dave: JAKE SCHULTZ WITH A COSTLY PENALTY TAKE THE POINTS OFF THE BOARD AND BACK UP THE COWBOYS. SCHULTZ THE FULLBACK WILL GET CALLED FOR THIS. SO IT'S SECOND DOWN AND 23. BACK AT THE 24 YARD LINE. AFTER THE SCHULTZ PENALTY. ALL KINDS OF MOVEMENT BY OKLAHOMA STATE. FIVE MORE YARDS VIA PENALTY. >> Referee: FALSE START. OFFENSE, NUMBER 61. FIVE-YARD PENALTY, SECOND HALF. >> Dave: BACK TO THAT SCHULTZ PENALTY AND BRING IN BILL LeMONNIER. BILL, WHAT DID YOU SEE? >> Bill: WELL, YOU HAD THE RESTRICTION OF THE FREE BLOCKING ZONE, WHICH IS FIVE YARDS EACH SIDE OF THE BALL, AND AS HE GOES TO MAKE THE HIT, HE'S GOT TO GET MORE IN FRONT. HE CAME IN FROM THE SIDE, SO HE WAS OUTSIDE WHAT WE CALL THE 10 TO 2 ZONE SO THAT IS AN ILLEGAL LOW BLOCK. >> Dave: AND A COSTLY ONE AT THAT AND NOW FIVE MORE YARDS AFTER THE FALSE START AND IT'S SECOND AND 28 AND THEN A PASS IN TRAFFIC IS DEFLECTED AND INCOMPLETE INTENDED FOR PRESLEY, DONEIKO SLAUGHTER WAS THERE DEFENSIVELY AND NOW IT'S THIRD DOWN AND 28. >> Dusty: GOOD COVERAGE DOWN THE FIELD. THOUGHT HE HAD GAVIN FREEMAN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FIELD COME OPEN. GOES TO PRESLEY. LIGHT COVERAGE, PASS BAT THE AWAY. THAT PENALTY IS UNBELIEVABLY COSTLY. >> Dave: YEAH, A TON OF MOMENTUM AND A CHANCE TO MAKE IT A ONE-SCORE GAME AND NOW YOU'RE HOPING TO GET OUT OF HERE WITH THREE POINTS. BE ABOUT A 47-YARD FIELD GOAL FROM HERE. SHORT THROW WAY OFF THE MARK INTENDED FOR PRESLEY, AND WILL BRING ON THE FIELD GOAL TEAM TO TRY TO GET SOMETHING OUT OF THIS DRIVE, BUT, AGAIN, IT'S GOING TO BE A LONG KICK. >> Dusty: THAT PENALTY TOOK ALL THE AIR OUT OF THIS BUILDING AND THE RHYTHM OUT OF THIS DRIVE FOR THE COWBOYS. AFTER THEY GOT THAT INITIAL FIRST DOWN, THEY WERE ABLE TO GO TEMPO, GO FAST, GET ARKANSAS ON THEIR HEELS, ALAN BOWMAN REALLY SETTLED IN. AN ERRANT PASS THERE ON THIRD DOWN. >> Dave: LOGAN WARD FROM 44 MADE A 52-YARDER LAST WEEK AGAINST SOUTH DAKOTA STATE. AND THIS ONE IS GOOD. SO THE COWBOYS DO GET POINTS. TOOK A LOT OF TIME OFF THE CLOCK ON THAT DRIVE. BACK WITHIN 11 THOUGH. >> Dave: WE HAVE A TRIPLE HEADER ON ABC. UP NEXT SOUTH CAROLINA AND KENTUCKY. THEN IN PRIMETIME, RANK MATCHUP, NUMBER 24 N.C. STATE AGAINST 14th RANKED TENNESSEE ON ABC AND ESPN+. >> Dusty: VAN DER McGRIFF MADE HIS DEBUT. THAT WILL BE A GOOD ONE AND TONIGHT NICO WAS NEARLY FLAWLESS. THOSE TOUCHDOWNS IN THE FIRST WEEK. SLOW START FOR GRAYSON McCALL, COASTAL CAROLINA TRANSFER BUT FINISHED WITH A BANG IN RALEIGH. NEUTRAL SITE IN CHARLOTTE TONIGHT. >> Dave: WE TALKED ABOUT THIS AT THE TOUCH OF OUR TELECAST FIRST, TEAMS IN CONFERENCES LIKE THE BIG 12 AND ACC KNOWING THAT THERE MAY NOT BE AS MANY AT-LARGE TEAMS FROM THOSE CONFERENCES COMPARED TO THE BIG TEN AND S.E.C. THESE INNER CONFERENCE GAMES ARE HUGE AS WE LOOK AT THE RANKINGS BROUGHT TO YOU BY VRBO. TEXAS RIGHT NOW DOMINATING IN ANN ARBOR, PENN STATE IN A TIGHT GAME WITH BOWLING GREEN. AND OTHER GAMES INVOLVING TOP TEN TEAMS ARE LATER, GEORGIA UP EARLY ON TENNESSEE TECH. >> Dusty: HOW ABOUT PENN STATE AFTER SUCH A GOOD SHOWING LAST WEEK IN MORGANTOWN, SPUTTERING. THERE AGAINST BOWLING GREEN. >> Dave: OKLAHOMA STATE'S DEFENSE HAD A REALLY GOOD SERIES LAST TIME. SEE WHAT HAPPENS HERE. JACKSON CAN'T FIND A CUTBACK LANE. NICK MARTIN THERE TO GREET HIM. A LOSS ON A PLAY OF A COUPLE. SHAKEN UP TOO GRABBING HIS HAMSTRING. >> Dusty: NICK MARTIN, EXCELLENT JOB. AS THIS CUTBACK LANE STARTS TO OPEN UP, DOWNHILL, FILLS THAT VOID, THE BIG STOP BEHIND THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE. THAT CUTBACK LANE WAS THERE. SO MUCH IN THE FIRST HALF FOR Ja'QUNDEN JACKSON ON THE ZONE, NOWHERE ON FIRST DOWN. >> Dave: THIRD TACKLE FOR A LOSS FROM MARTIN. WE SAW JACKSON IN THE FIRST HALF NEED ATTENTION FROM THE TRAINING STAFF. AND HE'S ON THE SIDELINE GETTING LOOKED AT NOW. NO SURPRISE THAT NICK MARTIN HAS BEEN A HUGE FACTOR, FIRST TEAM ALL-BIG 12 A YEAR AGO, LED THE CONFERENCE IN TACKLES AND WITH COLLIN OLIVER OUT, THEY NEED EVERYBODY STEPPING UP ON THAT DEFENSE. SECOND AND 12 AFTER THE TWO-YARD SETBACK. AND A PENALTY FLAG DOWN. >> Referee: FIVE-YARD PENALTY, IT IS SECOND DOWN. >> Dusty: SAM PITTMAN I THINK UNHAPPY WITH SOMETHING ABOUT THE CLOCK. THEY SUBSTITUTED LATE SO ONCE THEY SUBSTITUTE OKLAHOMA STATE HAS THE OPPORTUNITY TO SUBSTITUTE AS WELL AND THAT'S WHY YOU SEE THE OFFICIAL STANDING OVER THE BALL UNTIL OKLAHOMA STATE LOOKED LIKE JUSTIN KIRKLAND WAS ABLE TO GET OFF THE FIELD. SAM PITTMAN SAYING, YOU GOT TO LET US SNAP THE FOOTBALL. >> Dave: SECOND DOWN AND 17. INTO THE AIR WITH TIME THROWS UNDERNEATH AND IT'S CAUGHT BREAKING A TACKLE IS BRODEN AND GETTING A FIRST DOWN. BIG PICKUP ON SECOND AND 17, A GAIN OF 19. >> Dusty: NICE FIND OVER THE MIDDLE OF THE FIELD. SECOND LEVEL. NOWHERE THERE. THIS PASS COVERAGE OF OKLAHOMA STATE AND THIS TACKLE IN THE OPEN FIELD, BY TREY RUCKER. NICE YARDS AFTER THE CATCH BY BRODEN. >> Dave: DON'T NORMALLY SEE RUCKER MISS A TACKLE IN THAT SITUATION. CAN YOU SEE THE OFFICIAL HOLDING UP FOR THE SNAP BECAUSE OF THE SUBSTITUTIONS? GREEN HANDING IT OFF HERE. HILL LEVELED AT THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE, BOUNCES OFF OF DYLAN SMITH AND KOBE HYLTON AND GETS THE YARD OR TWO. >> Dusty: FLYING DOWNHILL FROM THE SAFETY SPOT. WE'RE SEEING MORE AGGRESSIVE OKLAHOMA STATE DEFENSE AGAINST THE RUN HERE TO START THE SECOND HALF. NICE JOB COMING DOWNHILL WITH A PHYSICAL TACKLE. >> Dave: ARKANSAS LAST YEAR WON FOUR GAMES. SAM PITTMAN JUST FIVE WINS AGAINST RANKED TEAMS IN FOUR PLUS SEASONS. THIS WOULD BE HUGE FOR HIM AND THIS RAZORBACK TEAM IF THEY CAN HOLD ON. CAUGHT BY ARMSTRONG, JUST SHORT OF A FIRST DOWN. IT'LL BE THIRD AND ONE WITH 4:30 TO PLAY. KORIE BLACK ON THE STOP. >> Dusty: REALLY GOOD WITH ROUTE RUNNING ABLE TO CREATE ENOUGH SEPARATION. OUT THERE WORKING ON KORIE BLACK, BEST COVER MAN ON THIS OKLAHOMA STATE DEFENSE. Ja'QUNDEN JACKSON, SEE IF HE GETS THE FOOTBALL. BIG PERSONNEL. >> Dave: HE'S BACK IN. WAS OUT BECAUSE OF GETTING BANGED UP BUT BACK OUT THERE FOR SHORT YARDAGE, THIRD AND ONE AND HE WILL GET THE CARRY AND THE FIRST DOWN, PINBALLING OFF DEFENDERS INTO OKLAHOMA STATE TERRITORY, A GAIN OF ABOUT SIX. >> Dusty: THREE TIGHT END SET HERE FOR ARKANSAS. REALLY GOOD PUSH. LUKE HASZ, NICE JOB. THE TIGHT END SPOT, HELPED WITH THAT PUSH. NOT JUST THE OFFENSIVE LINE, WIDE RECEIVERS, EVERYBODY BEEN PHYSICAL HELPING THIS RUSHING ATTACK FOR ARKANSAS. >> Dave: GREEN WITH A PITCH AND THE BALL IS ON THE GROUND, FUMBLED. RECOVERED BY OKLAHOMA STATE. MIDFIELD BY ARKANSAS IS JACKSON, COULDN'T HANDLE THE PITCH FROM TAYLEN GREEN. KODY WALTERSCHEID COMES UP WITH THE BALL. >> Dusty: MASSIVE TAKEAWAY, SHOULD I SAY GIVEAWAY BY ARKANSAS, JUST MISPLAYED BY Ja'QUNDEN JACKSON WHO HAS BEEN PRETTY FLAWLESS THROUGHOUT THE COURSE OF THE BALL GAME. PITCHES THIS FOOTBALL, HITS HIM ON THE HAND, TAKES HIS EYES OFF THE BALL, LOOKING FOR A DEFENDER TO COME. BALL IS ON THE GROUND AND OKLAHOMA STATE ON TOP. >> Dave: JACKSON GOT HURT ON THAT PLAY AS WELL. FIRST TIME WE'VE SEEN THAT QUICK PITCH, RIGHT? WE HAVEN'T SEEN THAT YET. OBVIOUSLY IT'S SOMETHING THEY WORKED ON IN PRACTICE BUT THAT WAS NOT GOOD. >> Dusty: TOOK HIS EYES OFF THE FOOTBALL. HE LANDS LOOKING FOR A DEFENDER TO COME AND OKLAHOMA STATE ON TOP OF THE BALL. >> Dave: CAN THE COWBOYS TAKE ADVANT >> Dave: THE TURNOVERS HAVE BEEN THE DIFFERENCE AND KEPT OKLAHOMA STATE IN THIS GAME. >> Dusty: THE BIG HIT, THE PICK SIX BY KALE SMITH AND THEN THEY MISHANDLED PITCH BY Ja'QUNDEN JACKSON, OKLAHOMA STATE ON TOP OF IT RIGHT AT MIDFIELD WITH A CHANCE TO GET RIGHT BACK IN THIS BALL GAME. >> Dave: BOWMAN WILL THROW OUT OF THE BACKFIELD. ON THE DB, SLAUGHTER, AT THE 39 YARD LINE AND STRUGGLED RUNNING THE BALL SO GET HIM OUT IN SPACE ON THE PASSING GAME. >> Dusty: NICE JOB IDENTIFYING THE COVERAGE. NO ONE THERE WITH OLLIE GORDON. AND BOWMAN THROWING AGAIN ON FIRST DOWN. >> Dave: OFF TARGET. TRIED TO HIT PRESLEY. SLAUGHTER THERE DILY BUT BOWMAN PLAYED MUCH BETTER TO START THE THIRD QUARTER AND THEY'RE KEEPING IT IN HIS HANDS RIGHT NOW. DOWN 11, SECOND AND TEN. >> Dusty: PASS OFF FOR ALAN BOWMAN. WIDE OF HIS INTENDED TARGET. KIND OF HOT AND COLD HERE IN THE SECOND HALF. THEY'VE UTILIZED TEMPO AND GOT ARKANSAS ON THEIR HEELS THAT PREVIOUS DRIVE. GOT INTO A RHYTHM AND HAD A LOT OF SUCCESS. >> Dave: GORDON GETTING A TOUCH, DOWNHILL RUN AND A GAIN OF FIVE WHICH IS ABOUT AS GOOD AS IT'S BEEN FOR GORDON ON THE GROUND AGAINST THAT ARKANSAS FRONT EIGHT OFTENTIMES IN THIS GAME. THIRD DOWN, OKLAHOMA STATE GOING FAST, THIRD AND FIVE ON THE 34. THERE'S COMMUNICATION BETWEEN THE COACH AND QUARTERBACK UNTIL 15 SECONDS ON THE PLAY CLOCK. THERE'S A NEW RULE THIS YEAR IN COLLEGE FOOTBALL, SAME FOR THE DEFENSE, THERE'S ONE PLAYER ON DEFENSE WHO HAS IT IN HIS HELMET. HE CAN HEAR HIS DEFENSIVE COORDINATOR. THE PASS IS CAUGHT BY PRESLEY FOR A FIRST DOWN INSIDE THE 20 YARD LINE, A GAIN OF 16. >> Dusty: THEY HAD MAN-TO-MAN COVERAGE AND AN EXCELLENT JOB WITH THIS ROUTE COMBINATION. SLAUGHTER UNABLE TO STAY WITH BRENNAN PRESLEY, OPEN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FIELD AND A GOOD FIND BY BOWMAN. >> Dave: BOWMAN THROWING AGAIN, LOBBING IT OVER THE HEAD OF TYLER FOSTER, INCOMPLETE. RECOVERED BY JAYDON JOHNSON. SECOND DOWN AT THE 18 WITH TWO MINUTES TO PLAY IN THE THIRD. >> Dusty: GOOD COVERAGE BY JOHNSON. NO OPPORTUNITY FOR FOSTER TO CATCH THAT FOOTBALL. SAILED WELL HIGH. BIG TIGHT END. >> Dave: OKLAHOMA STATE PICKED THIRD IN THE BIG 12 BEHIND UTAH AND KANSAS STATE, K-STATE IS LOSING TO TULANE ON THE ROAD, OKLAHOMA STATE LOSING AT HOME. WIDE RECEIVER SCREEN SET UP FOR STRIBLING. WELL DEFENDED AT THE 11 YARD LINE. STILL A SEVEN-YARD GAIN. THIRD DOWN AND THREE COMING UP. >> Dusty: VERY MANAGEABLE PLAYBOOK WIDE OPEN. HERE FOR -- >> Dave: GETTING A LOT OF REPS HERE IN THE THIRD QUARTER. WE DIDN'T SEE HIM AT ALL, OLLIE GORDON IN THE FIRST HALF. THAT'S PRESLEY IN MOTION AND THROWS IT AWAY BUT A FLAG COMES DOWN. AND THEY'RE GOING TO CALL IT ON THE OFFENSE. >> Referee: PASS INTERFERENCE, OFFENSE, NUMBER 10. 15-YARD PENALTY, IT IS THIRD DOWN. >> Dave: RASHOD OWENS WITH THE PENALTY AND NOW THEY'RE GOING TO BE BACK AT THEIR 26 OR THE 26 YARD LINE OF ARKANSAS INSTEAD OF THE 11. >> Dusty: HE HAS TO BE RUNNING HIS ROUTE AS HE -- I REALLY THINK AS HE TRIES TO SELL IT THAT HIS HANDS ARE GOING UP TO CATCH THE FOOTBALL HE'S KIND OF GIVING IT AWAY AS HE STOPS IN FRONT OF THE DEFENDER AND CALLED IT A -- >> Dave: THIS HAPPENED ON THE LAST PLAY. TOUCHDOWN WIPED OUT BECAUSE OF AIR PENALTY AND GOT BACKED UP NEAR THE 30 AND MADE A LONG FIELD GOAL AND KIND OF IN THE SAME SITUATION. ANY POINT WOULD GET IT DOWN TO AT LEAST A ONE-SCORE GAME, WHICH BASED ON HOW THE FIRST HALF WENT THE COWBOYS WOULD TAKE AT THIS POINT. IT'S THE TIGHT END JOSH FORD ON THE CATCH WRAPPED UP AND THROWN INTO HIS BENCH AT THE 18 YARD LINE. NOTHING LATE ABOUT THE HIT SO IT'S FOURTH DOWN AND HERE COMES THE FIELD GOAL UNIT AND GET A CHUNK OF THAT YARDAGE BACK. >> Dusty: JUST TO GET IT TO ONE SCORE HUGE FOR OKLAHOMA STATE IN THIS SPOT BUT, MAN, THE PENALTIES THEY'VE HAD HERE TO HALT A COUPLE OF THESE DRIVES IS VERY, VERY PUNITIVE HERE FOR THE COWBOYS. LOOKING TO CASH IN AFTER THE TAKEAWAY. >> Dave: LOGAN WARD MADE A 45 45-YARDER AND NOW TRYING A 35-YARDER. NAILS IT. BACK WITHIN EIGHT. PLENTY OF TIME LEFT. WELL, THIS SEASON ALLSTATE WILL CELEBRATE EVERY FIELD GOAL AND EXTRA POINT MADE BY PARTICIPATING WITH UNIVERSITIES BY MAKING A DONATION TO THEIR GENERAL SCHOLARSHIP FUND. THANK YOU, ALLSTATE. A GORGEOUS DAY IN STILLWATER. TEMPERATURE AROUND 80 DEGREES AND IT'S BEEN IN THE HIGH 80s, LOW 90s THE LAST WEEK OR SO. CAUGHT A BREAK. NOT A CLOUD IN THE SKY. AND IT LOOKS LIKE WE MAY END UP HAVING A GAME THAT GOES DOWN TO THE WIRE. DIDN'T SEEM THAT WAY IN THE FIRST BUT OKLAHOMA STATE HAS SETTLED IN ON BOTH SIDES OF THE BALL IN THE THIRD. >> Dusty: PRISTINE DAY WITH THE WEATHER AND THE STADIUM WITH A FAN BASE THAT WAS FIRED UP AND EXCITED TO WELCOME THE HOGS HERE TO TOWN. THREE HOURS SEPARATE THESE TWO SCHOOLS THAT HAVE NOT PLAYED IN 40 YEARS, S.E.C. SCHOOL COMING INTO BIG 12 COUNTRY, A LOT OF BUZZ AROUND STILLWATER YESTERDAY AS WE WERE HERE OUT AND ABOUT TALKING WITH THESE COACHES. THEY BOTH IMPRESSED UPON US HOW IMPORTANT THIS GAME WAS TO THEIR SEASONS AND NOW OKLAHOMA STATE WITH A COUPLE OF FIELD GOALS TO START THIS SECOND HALF. WE ANTICIPATED A COMPETITIVE ONE-SCORE GAME. >> Dave: WILL BE A TOUCHBACK AND COMES OUT TO THE 25 AS TAYLEN GREEN COMES BACK ON THE FIELD FOR ARKANSAS. >> Dusty: THE ARKANSAS QUARTERBACK WAS A HUGE STORY FOR US AND, BOY, DID HE PERFORM WELL AND I THOUGHT BOBBY PETRINO MASTERFUL JOB MOVING THE POCKET, A LOT OF BOOTS GIVING IN THOSE RUN-PASS OPTIONS, SEE HIM USING THE ATHLETICISM, THE VISION DOWN THE FIELD AT 6'6" AND EVEN FROM WITHIN THE POCKET AND BOBBY PETRINO SAID, THIS IS ONE OF THE SELLS IN HIS PITCHES TO TAYLEN GREEN WHENEVER HE CAME IN, WE'LL SHOW YOU'RE MORE THAN JUST AN ATHLETE AND A LEGITIMATE PASSER, A LOT OF GOOD EARLY IN THIS BALL GAME FROM TAYLEN GREEN. >> Dave: 5 OF 7 PASSING IN THE SECOND HALF. HASN'T HAD AS MANY EXPLOSIVE PLAYS. DANGEROUS SCREEN PLAY NEARLY PICKED OFFER IN THE REDIRECTION INTENDED FOR SATEGNA BUT A LOT OF TRAFFIC AROUND HIM AND IT HARMLESSLY HITS THE GROUND. INCOMPLETE. >> Dusty: NO OPPORTUNITY FOR SATEGNA TO MAKE THE PLAY. THIS HAS BEEN MUCH MORE AGGRESSIVE INTO OKLAHOMA STATE DEFENSE HERE IN THE SECOND HALF. >> Dave: JUST GETTING GASHED IN THE FIRST HALF. TOTALLY CHANGED, THOUGH, HERE, SINCE INTERMISSION AS WE SAY THAT, JACKSON WHO IS BACK IN THE GAME WAS ON THAT LAST PLAY AS WELL AFTER GETTING SHAKEN UP FOR THE THIRD TIME IN THE LAST POSSESSION AND A GOOD CHUNK, SIX OR SEVEN. FINAL SECONDS HERE OF THE THIRD QUARTER. >> Dusty: THIRD DOWN HAS BEEN DOMINATED BY ARKANSAS IN THIS BALL GAME AS WE HEAD TO THE FOURTH QUARTER, A BIG THIRD DOWN COMING OUR WAY TO START THIS OPENING FRAME. >> Dave: SAM PITTMAN GREW UP IN OKLAHOMA. THE LAST TIME YOU SAID THEY PLAYED WAS 1980. HE WAS JUST A KID TRYING TO WIN A GAME HERE IN HIS HOME STATE. PRESENTATION OF COLLEGE FOOTBALL CONTINUES AFTER T >> Dave: WELCOME BACK TO STILLWATER. QUARTER NUMBER FOUR. CAN ARKANSAS HANG ON? OKLAHOMA STATE BACK WITHIN EIGHT AFTER THE RAZORBACKS LED 14-0 IN THE FIRST QUARTER AND A CRITICAL THIRD DOWN TO START THIS PERIOD. THIRD AND FOUR ON THE ARKANSAS 31. GREEN OVER THE MIDDLE, RECEIVER WIDE OPEN, FIRST DOWN, NEAR THE 50, ANDREW ARMSTRONG. >> Dusty: GREAT PATIENCE BY TAYLEN GREEN. ZONE COVERAGE BY OKLAHOMA STATE, ANDREW ARMSTRONG, BIG VOID IN THAT DEFENSE, TAYLEN GREEN DOESN'T RUSH ANYTHING. GOES THROUGH HIS PROGRESSIONS. CONVERTS A BIG THIRD DOWN. >> Dave: BALL ON THE GROUND AGAIN. GREEN SCOOPS IT UP. ON THE RUN, GETS HAMMERED AS HE THROWS THE BALL AWAY AT THE LAST SECOND. NICK MARTIN WITH ANOTHER SHOT ON THE QUARTERBACK, MARTIN SLOW TO GET UP, THOUGH. SO IS GREEN HOBBLING A BIT. >> Dusty: ODD RIGHT THERE. NOT A BAD SNAP, MISHANDLED BY TAYLEN GREEN. PICKS IT UP AND GETS IT OUT OF HIS HAND AND TAKES A BIG SHOT. >> Dave: SECOND AND TEN. GREEN WITH A HITCH. THROWS A DEEP BALL AND IT IS INCOMPLETE. ARMSTRONG FOR THE LONGEST TIME IT LOOKED LIKE HE WAS GOING TO HAUL THAT IN. KORIE BLACK, BACK THERE DEFENSIVELY AT THE END. >> Dusty: THIS IS AN EXCELLENT JOB BY KORIE BLACK LATE. THIS BALL HANGS UP IN THE AIR JUST LONG ENOUGH. ANDREW ARMSTRONG, HE HAD THE SEPARATION HE NEEDED. HAS TO WAIT ON THAT FOOTBALL AND HOW ABOUT THE TIMING OF BLACK TO GET THAT HAND IN, TO GET THE PASS BREAKUP. HUGE PLAY BY KORIE BLACK. >> Dave: OKLAHOMA STATE RUSHES. THAT'S ENOUGH. THEY GET TO GREEN BUT HE ESCAPES AND THROWS BACK ACROSS THE MIDDLE COMPLETE, BRODEN MADE THE CATCH FOR A FIRST DOWN. WHAT A PLAY BY TAYLEN GREEN, GAIN OF 18. >> Dusty: THE PRESSURE COMES, GREAT OFF THE EDGE, JALEEL JOHNSON ALMOST UNSCATHED BUT AS HE'S BEEN ALL DAY, WHEN TAYLEN GREEN GETS OUTSIDE ON THE PERIMETER, WHETHER AS A RUNNER OR THROWING DOWNFIELD FINDS A WIDE-OPEN TYRONE BRODEN FOR ANOTHER BIG THIRD DOWN CONVERSION. THEY'VE OWNED THIRD DOWN IN THIS BALL GAME. >> Dave: Ja'QUNDEN JACKSON RIGHT BETWEEN THE TACKLES. GOING BACK TO THAT PLAY BY TAYLEN GREEN, SOMETHING THAT TAYLOR REFERENCED IN THE FIRST HALF WITH SAM PITTMAN TALKING ABOUT THE LEADERSHIP OF GREEN THE. THAT ITS HIS TEAM AND BECAME HIS TEAM QUITE QUICKLY WHICH IS RARE FOR A TRANSFER. IT'S NOT LIKE HE'S PLAYED IN A LOT OF THESE GAMES BUT IT'S BEEN ON DISPLAY. >> Dusty: COOL, CALM, COLLECTED. THE BIGGEST ENVIRONMENT HE'S PLAYED IN FRONT OF AND HAS HE ANSWERED THE CALL. >> Dave: FRESH SET OF DOWNS IN THE RED ZONE, ABLE TO EKE OUT A YARD DOES Ja'QUNDEN JACKSON BEFORE HE'S BROUGHT DOWN. TO TAYLOR. >> Taylor: HIS ABILITY TO READ DEFENSES STOOD OUT TO BOBBY PETRINO INSTANTLY AND THEY'RE COMMUNICATING IN BETWEEN SERIES TALKING ABOUT THINGS THEY NEED TO DO BUT THEY REALLY LOVE HIS ACT TO DISSECT DEFENSES AND MAKE PLAYS. >> Dave: 22 YEARS OLD NEXT MONTH. >> Dusty: SEEN THAT ON DISPLAY THROUGHOUT THE COURSE OF THE DAY, TAYLOR. WENT THROUGH HIS PROGRESSIONS, NOT RUSHING ANYTHING. HE'S BEEN G'DAY BALL ON THE GROUND AGAIN AND GREEN ABLE TO GOBBLE IT UP. THAT'S TWICE ON THIS DRY THAT HE'S NOT BEEN ABLE TO HANDLE THE SNAP OR THE SNAP LOOKED LIKE IT WASN'T EASY TO HANDLE. >> Dusty: HE STARTS MOVING BEFORE HE ACTUALLY GATHERS THAT SNAP. HE STEPS TO HIS RIGHT, SNAP WAS A LITTLE LOWER THAN THE LAST ONE. MAN, TWICE NOW. >> Dave: UNBELIEVABLE CRITICAL GIVEAWAY. >> Dusty: BY Ja'QUNDEN JACKSON IN THE SECOND HALF. >> Dave: 9 OF 13 ON THIRD DOWN. THIRD AND 14. ABOUT A 42-YARD FIELD GOAL TRY FROM HERE. GREEN IN TROUBLE AND THE PASS IS INCOMPLETE. HE GOT RID OF IT BEFORE HE GOT SACKED BY KENDAL DANIELS. SATEGNA COULD NOT MAKE THE CATCH SO ARKANSAS WILL TRY A FIELD GOAL WHICH IF GOOD WOULD GET IT BACK TO A TWO-SCORE GAME. >> Dusty: BRYAN NARDO SAID WE'RE NOT LETTING THEM SIT BACK THERE. WE'RE COMING AFTER THEM AND NOAH DANIELS GETS HOME FORCING THAT BALL OUT OF HIS HANDS QUICKLY. TALKED WITH SAM PITTMAN YESTERDAY ABOUT HIS KICKING SITUATION, HE SAID HE FELT REALLY GOOD. >> Dave: 41 FOR KYLE RAMSEY. TRANSFER FROM ABILENE CHRISTIAN. NO GOOD. HE MISSED IT WIDE TO THE RIGHT. >> Dusty: THE DEFENSE COMES UP WITH A STOP. BEND BUT DON'T BREAK AND THE FIELD GOAL PUSHED A LITTLE BIT WIDE. STILL A ONE-SCORE GAME IN STILLWATER. >> Dave: DAVE PASCH, DUSTY DVORCHAK, TAYLOR McGREGOR IN STILLWATER. ONE-SCORE GAME, OKLAHOMA STATE BALL AFTER A MISSED FIELD GOAL. 11:44 LEFT. COWBOYS TAKING OVER ON THEIR 24 YARD LINE. VAILAHI GETS THE CARRY IN THERE FOR OLLIE GORDON AND DOES WELL. GAIN OF FIVE. >> Taylor: THIS OFFENSIVE TEAM FOR OKLAHOMA STATE, ONE OF THE MOST EXPERIENCED IN THE COUNTRY AND IT IS SHOWING HERE ON THE SIDELINE. BEFORE THE SERIES ALAN BOWMAN GOING TO HIS RECEIVERS STAYING, COOL, CALM AND COLLECTED AND STAY LEVELHEADED IN THIS MOMENT. SOMETHING THAT VETRANSHIP SHOWS. >> Dave: BOWMAN THROWS DOWNFIELD FOR PRESLEY BUT OVER HIS HEAD INCOMPLETE. MOST EXPERIENCED OFFENSIVE LINE IN COLLEGE FOOTBALL HISTORY, 215 COMBINED STARTS BETWEEN THE FIVE GUYS AS GORDON CHECKS BACK IN. >> Dusty: EXPERIENCE ALL OVER THIS TEAM AT THE OFFENSIVE LINE YOU TOUCHED ON, A QUARTERBACK IN HIS SEVENTH SEASON. IF THERE IS A TEAM EQUIPPED TO DEAL WITH EARLY STRUGGLES, OVERCOME THAT AND PUT IT TOGETHER WHEN THEY NEED TO IT'S THIS COWBOYS OFFENSE. >> Dave: ARKANSAS TRYING TO COME UP WITH A THREE AND OUT DEFENSIVELY. BOWMAN HAS TIME TO THROW. PRESLEY IS OPEN, GOT A FIRST DOWN. NEAR THE 38 YARD LINE, PRESLEY LAST YEAR HAD 101 CATCHES, THEY GO TO HIM A LOT IN CRITICAL SITUATIONS, GAIN OF TEN. >> Dusty: GET HIM MATCHED UP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FIELD AND NICE JOB OF HIM STARTING INSIDE AND THEN WORKING OUT. ZONE DROP THERE, LANDON JACKSON IN THAT SOPER AND PRESLEY MAKES HIM PAY. >> Dave: BOWMAN TAKING A SHOT. INTO DOUBLE COVERAGE AND INCOMPLETE AT THE LAST SECOND OWENS COULD NOT HANG ON AS HE HIT THE GROUND. >> Dusty: SAW THIS EARLIER TO CLOSE OUT THE FIRST HALF. VERY SIMILAR SITUATION. YOU'RE GOING TO TRUST RASHOD OWENS TO GET THE FOOTBALL, JARRED LOOSE. >> Dave: SECOND AND TEN ON THE OKLAHOMA STATE 38 YARD LINE. THEY WORK OUT A PISTOL WITH GORDON BEHIND BOWMAN. AGAIN, WE HAVE NOT SEEN GORDON INVOLVED MUCH IN THE RUN GAME IN THE SECOND HALF, WHICH IS STRANGE TO SAY BUT HE DOES HAVE A CATCH. HE'S BARELY TOUCHED IT AS A RUNNER. BOWMAN, PRESLEY JUGGLES AND INCOMPLETE. IT WAS ALMOST CAUGHT BY THE OTHER RECEIVER DOWNFIELD. TALYN SHETTRON AFTER PRESLEY COULD NOT PULL IT IN. >> Dusty: BOY, SURPRISE. BRENNAN PRESLEY, THE GO-TO GUY, MR. RELIABLE, 101 CATCHES A SEASON AGO, UNABLE TO COME UP WITH THAT CATCH. THAT BALL PUT OUT IN FRONT. UNABLE TO BRING IT IN. >> Dave: AND SO INSTEAD OF A GAIN OF ABOUT 20 OR 25, IT'S THIRD DOWN AND 10. BOWMAN ON A HALF ROLL, STILL ON THE MOVE. BEING CHASED AND BOWMAN THROWS IT AWAY. SO, ARKANSAS' DEFENSE HOLDS UP. FOURTH AND TEN AND OKLAHOMA STATE WILL HAVE TO PUNT IT AWAY WITH 10:30 TO GO. >> Dusty: ALL RECEIVERS COVERED. ALAN BOWMAN ROLLING, MOVING, WAITING, TRYING TO FIND SOMEBODY THAT COMES OPEN, JUST NOT THE CASE IN THIS HOGS DEFENSE AFTER THE MISSED FIELD GOAL COMES UP WITH YET ANOTHER BIG STOP IN THIS BALL GAME. >> Dave: EACH TEAM WITH THREE TIME-OUTS LEFT AND 2024 IN COLLEGE FOOTBALL YOU GETS EXTRA TIME-OUT WITH THE TWO-MINUTE TIME-OUT. VERY SIMILAR TO THE NFL TWO-MINUTE WARNING. HUDSON CARD, HIGH IN THE AIR, SATEGNA UNDER IT AND MUFFED IT. OKLAHOMA STATE COMES UP WITH IT AT THE 25 YARD LINE. IT'S THE LONG SNAPPER, SHEA FREIBAUM RUNNING DOWN THERE TO RECOVER THE MUFFED KICK. >> Dusty: WOW. ARKANSAS JUST DOING EVERYTHING TO KEEP OKLAHOMA STATE IN THIS BALL GAME AND SATEGNA JUST UNABLE TO BRING THIS IN. >> Dave: A TEAMMATE AT HIS FEET AND YOU WONDER IF THAT DISTRACTED HIM ON THE GROUND. YOU SEE SOME CONTACT MADE BY A TEAMMATE AND THAT HAD TO HAVE THROWN SATEGNA OFF. NOW IT'S FIRST DOWN FOR OKLAHOMA STATE AT THE 25. BOWMAN OFF PLAY ACTION ON THE ROLLUP. NEAR THE SIDELINE, OWENS ON THE CATCH, STOOD UP AND DROPPED BUT IT'S FIRST AND GOAL FOR THE COWBOYS. >> Dusty: RASHOD OWENS SUCH A BICK BODY AT 230. ALAN BOWMAN CALLED HIM A BIG CADILLAC. THE CADILLAC OUT THERE GETTING SOME SPACE. AND GETTING THE POKES INSIDE THE 10. >> Dave: HOW ABOUT DURING THE COMEBACK WE STILL HAVEN'T SEEN OLLIE GORDON TOUCHES. DO WE FINALLY GET IT INSIDE THE TEN? GORDON LED THE COUNTRY IN RUSHING A YEAR AGO. ANOTHER PASS PLAY, BOWMAN, OPEN RECEIVER, PRESLEY AND THERE'S A FLAG DOWN AS PRESLEY IS INTO THE END ZONE FOR A TOUCHDOWN BUT MIGHT WE HAVE OFFENSIVE PASS INTERFERENCE AGAIN ON OKLAHOMA STATE? >> Referee: THERE IS NO FOUL FOR OFFENSIVE PASS INTERFERENCE. THE PASS WAS CALLED BEHIND THE LINE, RESULT OF THE PLAY WAS A TOUCHDOWN. >> Dave: THERE'S THE DESCRIPTION, PRESLEY WITH A TOUCHDOWN. OKLAHOMA STATE, TWO POINTS AWAY FROM TYING THE GAME. >> Dusty: IF THE PASS IS CAUGHT AT OR BEHIND THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE, THERE IS NO OFFENSIVE PASS INTERFERENCE. STRIBLING COMES IN. PRESLEY CAMPS THAT BAUM RIGHT AT THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE AND A WALK-IN TOUCHDOWN. >> Dave: GO FOR DOS BROUGHT TO YOU BY DO EQUIS. 21-7 AT HALFTIME WITH THE ONLY SCORE COMING ON DEFENSE. >> Dusty: BIG PERSONNEL END. >> Dave: DIDN'T PULL BACK. OLLIE GORDON. SHIFTING INTO THE BACKFIELD, PLAY ACTION, BOLEY ON THE ROLLOUT TO THE END ZONE, IT'S CAUGHT AND THE GAME IS TIED. De'ZHAUN STRIBLING EVENS THE GAME AT 21-21. >> Dusty: ARKANSAS HAS MADE PLENTY OF MISTAKES. THE MUFFED PUNT, THE LATEST OF THOSE, WHAT DO YOU DO WITH THOSE MISTAKES? OKLAHOMA STATE FOR THE FIRST TIME OFFENSIVELY CASHES IN WITH A TOUCHDOWN AND THEN THE TWO-POINT TO STRIBLING. WE'RE ALL TIED UP HERE. POKES AND HOGS, 21-21. >> Announcer: ABC COLLEGE FOOTBALL IS PRESENTED BY TUMS GUMMY BITES. GET FAST RELIEF OF OCCASIONAL HEARTBURN. USE AS DIRECTED. >> Dave: LESLIE O'NEAL'S NUMBER IMMORTALIZED AT HALFTIME. GREAT SAN DIEGO CHARGER. TIE GAME HERE IN STILLWATER AND A KICK OUT OF BOUNDS. IT'S GOING TO GIVE ARKANSAS THE BALL WITH GOOD FIELD POSITION AS WE GO TO KEVIN. >> UPSET BREWING IN TULANE. 9 1/2-POINT UNDERDOGS TAKING ON KANSAS STATE, MENSAH TO BOWMAN. >> LOVE THE PLAY CALL. PLAY MAN COVERAGE, GO CATCH THE FOOTBALL. >> 27-20. THAT GAME ON ESPN COMING YOUR WAY IN 45 MINUTES ON ABC, BROCK VANDAGRIFF. >> HOW ABOUT THAT MUSTACHE. >> Dave: ARKANSAS AFTER THE KICK GOES OUT OF BOUNDS, COMPLETION TO ARMSTRONG GOING TO BE CLOSE FOR THE LINE TO GAIN. RIGHT AT THE 45. IT IS A FIRST DOWN. TURNOVERS HAVE BEEN THE ISSUE FOR ARKANSAS HERE IN THE SECOND HALF. MISSED FIELD GOAL, A COUPLE OF GIVEAWAYS. >> Dusty: THAT TOSS TO Ja'QUNDEN JACKSON. A COUPLE OF SNAPS THAT HAVE BEEN ON THE GROUND AS WELL AND THE MUFFED PUNT AND OKLAHOMA STATE'S CASHED IN TEN POINTS HERE IN THE SECOND HALF. MAKE IT 11 WITH THE TWO-POINT CONVERSION AND HAS BEEN THE DIFFERENCE IN THE BALL GAME. >> Dave: THE TRANSFER FROM BOISE STATE, TAYLEN GREEN, HOW WILL HE RESPOND? GOOD START. COMPLETION TO ARMSTRONG FOR TEN YARDS ON THE FIRST PLAY. THEY'LL RUN IT HERE ON THE NEXT PLAY, AND JACKSON IS FREE. INSIDE THE 40, INSIDE THE 30, AND DOWN TO THE 28. THAT LOOKED LIKE THE RAZORBACK RUN GAME IN THE FIRST HALF. >> Dusty: GAP SCHEME RUN. ADDISON NICHOLS GOING TO GET UP ON TREY RUCKER COMING DOWNHILL AND IT'S A KEY BLOCK BY THE CENTER. BIG HOLE FOR Ja'QUNDEN JACKSON. >> Dave: GAIN OF 26. DOWN TO THE 29 OF OKLAHOMA STATE. THREE TOUCHDOWNS FOR JACKSON BUT HE'S BEEN IN AND OUT OF THE LINEUP AND SEEN HIM SHAKEN UP A FEW TIMES HERE TODAY. TRANSFER FROM UTAH. AND IT'S MISCOMMUNICATION AND GREEN IS SLAMMED DOWN, NICK MARTIN HAS A HANDFUL OF TACKLES FOR A LOSS. GREEN EXPECTED JACKSON TO TURN THE OTHER WAY. >> Dusty: IT'S LIKE A QUARTERBACK SANDWICH. NICK MARTIN OFF ONE EDGE, EZEIGBO OFF THE OTHER. THEY MEET AT THE QUARTERBACK. MISCOMMUNICATION TO YOUR POINT, DAVE, BUT A BIG NEGATIVE PLAY ONCE AGAIN CREATED BY THE LIDER OF THIS DEFENSE, NICK MARTIN. HE'S BEEN AWESOME THIS AFTERNOON. >> Dave: WITH OLIVER OUT, FROM THE POCKET, GREEN'S PASS FLUTTERS AND IT'S INCOMPLETE. THAT MAY HAVE BEEN SLIGHTLY TIPPED AT THE LINE. IT WAS INTENDED FOR BRODEN. TOOK A WHILE TO GET THERE. >> Dusty: IT LOOKED OFF. LIKE HE DIDN'T HAVE ANYTHING ON IT. NICE PLAY THERE, YEAH, YOU'RE RIGHT, DAVE. YOU CALLED THAT. TIPPED AT THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE AND NICE COVERAGE DOWN THE FIELD ON A BIG THIRD DOWN. ANDREW ARMSTRONG ON A GO-TO TARGET AS WELL AS TYRONE BRODEN UP TOP. TAYLEN GREEN CHECKING THIS PLAY AT THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE. ON THIRD AND 14. >> Dave: TRYING TO SET UP A SCREEN. GREEN IN TROUBLE, ESCAPES AGAIN. TAKES OFF, INSIDE THE 25 AND TACKLED AT THE 23. HE GOT NINE OR TEN. IT'S FOURTH AND A HANDFUL. WHAT DO YOU DO IF YOU'RE SAM PITTMAN? IT WOULD BE ABOUT A 40-YARD FIELD GOAL FROM HERE. HIS KICKER JUST MISSED A 41-YARDER. >> Dusty: HE TOLD US YESTERDAY HE TRUSTED HIS KICKER FROM THE 25 IN BUT AFTER SEEING THAT FIRST MISSED FIELD GOAL PUSH RIGHT HE TRUSTS TAYLEN GREEN A LITTLE BIT MORE HERE ON FOURTH AND MEDIUM. I'M A LITTLE SURPRISED WE DIDN'T SEE A KICK. HE FELT REALLY GOOD ABOUT 25 IN. TAYLEN GREEN AND THIS OFFENSE, THEY HAVE BEEN REALLY GOOD ALL AFTERNOON. >> Dave: FOURTH AND FIVE. THEY NEED TO GET TO THE 19. GREEN IN TROUBLE. HIT, DIVES, AND HE'S GOING TO BE SHORT AT THE 20 YARD LINE. TREY RUCKER GOT HIM TO THE GROUND. IT'LL BE A TURNOVER ON DOWNS. INITIAL PRESSURE BY OBI EZEIGBO WHO REPLACED THE INJURED COLLIN OLIVER. >> Dusty: WHAT A STOP FOR THIS COWBOYS DEFENSE AND BRYAN NARDO. THEY ROLLED THE DICE. THEY WENT FOR IT ON FOURTH DOWN AND THEY ROLLED SNAKE EYES, THE POKES WITH THE BIG STOP AND THE BALL COMING BACK. >> Dave: BACK TO THAT CRUCIAL FOURTH DOWN. >> Dusty: KEYSHAWN BLACKSTOCK IS LATE AND EZEIGBO CAME OFF THE EDGE CLEAN AND CREATES A DISRUPTION FOR TAYLEN GREEN AND CREATES A STOP FOR THE POKES' DEFENSE. >> Dave: FOURTH DOWN SO OKLAHOMA STATE HITCHING IT. OLLIE GORDON OUT IN SPACE. THE BIGGEST RUN OF THE DAY FOR GORDON. THAT'S JUST HIS TENTH CARRY OF THE GAME. HE HAD PRIOR TO THAT CARRIED JUST 19 RUSHING YARDS. REMEMBER, HE HAD OVER 1700 A YEAR AGO. NOW, A REVERSE AND FLEAFLICKER AND THE BALL THROWN DOWNFIELD AND CAUGHT, THE FULLBACK, JAKE SCHULTZ, INSIDE THE 30 TRYING TO OUTRUN THE DB AND FINALLY TACKLED INSIDE THE 10. MIKE GUNDY, A 69-YARD FLEAFLICKER, FIRST AND GOAL. >> Dusty: IS HE DONE PULLING OUT ALL THE STOPS? NO ONE IDENTIFIES THE FLEAFLICKER. PERFECTLY EXECUTED. SLOW TO GO, ACT LIKE YOU'RE BLOCKING, NOBODY STAYS WITH 38. HE IS A FULLBACK. WHAT IS HE GOING TO DO? ONE OF THE BIGGEST PLAYS OF THE BALL GAME. IT'S AT THE 10 YARD LINE. WOW, WHAT A CALL AND WHAT EXECUTION, DAVE PASCH. >> Dave: THE TIMING, YOU FINALLY GET A NICE RUN BY GORDON. THE DEFENSE GOES IMMEDIATELY TO HIM AND THE PITCHBACK TO BOWMAN FOR THE THROW DOWNFIELD. BOWMAN TO THE AIR, DANGEROUS PASS AND INCOMPLETE. DONEIKO SLAUGHTER COULD NOT COME UP WITH IT. >> Dusty: LOOKED LIKE PRESLEY AND BOWMAN ARE ON THE SAME PAGE. THE RECEIVER AND QUARTERBACK, AND THEY ESCAPE UNSCATHED. ALAN BOWMAN GETTING IT OUT HERE. SLAUGHTER IS GOING TO THAT FOOTBALL. HE'S SLIGHTLY SLIPPING AND FALLING. IF HE DOESN'T SLIP THERE, THAT'S A PICK AND A HUGE BLOCK. WELL-THROWN FOOTBALL BY BOWMAN. >> Dave: STAY CONSERVATIVE. SECOND DOWN AND GOAL. BOWMAN INSTEAD DUMPING IT OFF INSIDE THE 5 AND DIVING FOR THE END ZONE, WAITING FOR THE SIGNAL. HE'S IN. GIVES HIS HOMETOWN THE LEAD IN THIS GREAT COMEBACK. >> Dusty: OLLIE GORDON HAS BEEN USED AS A DECOY MORE THAN A WEAPON HERE TODAY. FAKE IT INSIDE, DUMP IT DOWN TO THE TRUE FRESHMAN TIGHT END. DOES HE GET IN? IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S OUT. >> Dave: AGREED. LOOKS LIKE HE STEPPED OUT AT 3. LET'S TAKE A LOOK HERE. AGAIN, THAT DOESN'T SHOW THE FOOT, WHICH LOOKED LIKE -- >> Dusty: YEAH, LOOKS LIKE IT'S OUT AND THAT BALL WILL BE DOWN. >> Dave: THE BALL IS AT THE 2. THE RULING IS A TOUCHDOWN WITH 5:32 TO GO. JOSH FORD, WE WERE TOLD WOULD PLAY A LOT, MIKE GUNDY TOLD US HE'S LIKE A CAGE FIGHTER. HE DOESN'T CARE ABOUT HIS BODY. YOU SAW HIM SELL OUT RIGHT THERE. TRYING TO GET INTO THE END ZONE. SEE IF THIS IS OVERTURNED BY -- >> Dusty: A LOCAL WATER OUT OF STILLWATER HIGH SCHOOL AND A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP GAME HE TOLD US ABOUT A COUPLE YEARS AGO WHERE JOSH FORD RIPS HIS HAMSTRING OFF THE BONE YET STILL PLAYS NINE PLAYS IN THE GAME. JUST THE TOUGHNESS AND THE MINDSET HE'S BRINGING FOR THIS COWBOYS FOOTBALL TEAM AND SUCH A CRUCIAL SPOT TO TRUST HIM THERE. >> Referee: AFTER REVIEW THE PLAYER'S FOOT WAS OUT OF BOUNDS AND THE BALL IS AT THE 3 YARD LINE. THIRD DOWN AT THAT SPOT. >> Dave: SO THIRD AND GOAL AND IF YOU'RE MIKE GUNDY AND CASEY DUNN ARE YOU THINKING FOUR-DOWN TERRITORY? WHAT DO YOU EXPECT ON THIS CALL? >> Dusty: I THINK WE'LL SEE HIM PUT IT IN ALAN BOWMAN'S HANDS AND PLAY ACTION MOVING THE POCKET. THEY WANT THAT TWO-POINT CONVERSION AND EXPECT TO SEE SOMETHING SIMILAR THERE IN THE SPOT. THEY HAVE NOT SHOWN ANY TRUST OR RELIABILITY IN THE RUSHING ATTACK IN OLLIE GORDON. >> Dave: THEY'VE GONE FOR IT ON FOURTH DOWN A COUPLE TIMES IN THE RED ZONE ALREADY IN THIS GAME. IF THEY ARE UNABLE TO GET INTO THE END ZONE HERE, IT WILL BE INTERESTING DEPENDING WHERE THE BALL IS. >> Dusty: BRENNAN PRESLEY THEY TRUST IMMENSELY. 101 CATCHES A YEAR AGO. KEEP MY EYES ON HIM IF I'M ARKANSAS. >> Dave: PUT BOWMAN UNDER CENTER AND HAND IT OFF ON A JET SWEEP AND INTO THE END ZONE FOR THE TOUCHDOWN. BRENNAN PRESLEY. OKLAHOMA STATE IS ALL THE WAY BACK FROM 14-0 IN THE FIRST QUARTER AND NO OFFENSIVE POINTS AT HALFTIME TO PUT 27 ON THE BOARD TOTAL, 20 BY THE OFFENSE HERE IN THE SECOND HALF. ONLY SCORE IN THE FIRST HALF WAS A PICK SIX, BUT THEY HAD THE LEAD AFTER THAT IMPRESSIVE DRIVE. WARD ON FOR THE POINT AFTER. MAKES IT 28-21 WITH 5:13 LEFT. >> Dusty: SOMETIMES IT'S ABOUT GETTING THE FOOTBALL TO YOUR BEST PLAYER AND BRENNAN PRESLEY IS ONE OF THE BEST PLAYERS FOR A VERY LONG TIME. MOTION ACROSS AND GIVE THE JET SWEEP AND LET IT UTILIZE THAT SPEED, GET TO THE PERIMETER, GET TO THE EDGE, HOW ABOUT SCHULTZ WITH A NICE KEY BLOCK OUT THERE. THE CORNER OF THAT END ZONE, THE BIG FULLBACK AND NICE JOB WITH THE FLEAFLICKER. THE FIFTH YEAR SENIOR PUTS THE POKES UP IN THIS GAME FOR THE FIRST TIME. >> Dave: ARKANSAS ELECTED NOT TO KICK A FIELD GOAL ON FOURTH DOWN AND FIVE. FROM ABOUT THE 23 YARD LINE OF OKLAHOMA STATE. THEY FAILED THAT OKLAHOMA STATE AFTER FORCING THE TURNOVER ON DOWNS GOES ABOUT 75 YARDS, THOUGHT THEY WERE IN THE END ZONE ON SECOND DOWN. THEY ARE IN THE END ZONE ON THIRD DOWN AND NOW THEY HAVE A SEVEN-POINT LEAD. AND TAYLEN GREEN, THE BALL IN HIS HANDS, HE'S NOT ON A BIG STAGE BUT NOT ON THE BIGGEST STAGE. THIS CERTAINLY WOULD QUALIFY ON THE ROAD, WE'LL SEE HOW HE HANDLES IT. HE'LL HAVE ALL OF HIS TIME-OUT, BENEFIT OF THE TWO-MINUTE TIME-OUT AS WELL AND FIVE MINUTES TO WORK WITH. WES PAHL WILL KICK IT DEEP TO SATEGNA. SIGNALS FOR THE FAIR CATCH AND WILL COME OUT TO THE 25 YARD LINE. WHAT A LINEUP WE HAVE FOR YOU. THE U.S. OPEN WOMEN'S FINAL IS OVER ON ESPN HERE IN ABOUT AN HOUR. OUR ABC SATURDAY COLLEGE FOOTBALL TRIPLE HEADER ENDS WITH TENNESSEE/N.C. STATE, U.S. OPEN MEN'S FINAL ON ABC TOMORROW AND WEEK ONE NFL MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL, JETS/NINERS, EVERYTHING AVAILABLE ON ESPN+. THE STAKES HAVE BEEN COSTLY FOR ARKANSAS. TAYLEN GREEN'S PUT THE BALL ON THE GROUND A COUPLE OF TIMES. MISHANDLING SNAPS, SAW MISCOMMUNICATION WITH HIM AND Ja'QUNDEN JACKSON ON A RUN PLAY THAT COST THEM FOUR YARDS ON THE LAST DRIVE. CAN THEY GET IT TOGETHER AND MOUNT A COMEBACK. ANOTHER LOW SNAP, THAT TIME SCOOPED UP ON THE SHOELACES AND GREEN THROWS A DEEP BALL CAUGHT AND THROWN OUT OF PLAY. >> Dusty: HOW DID HE GET OPEN 30 YARDS DOWN FIELD? HE HAD PLENTY OF TIME TO SURVEY THE FIELD. HOW ABOUT THE PROTECTION HERE BY ARKANSAS. NICE BLOCK BY Ja'QUNDEN JACKSON ON A LATE -- NICK MARTIN, PLENTY OF TIME AND THE COVERAGE BREAKS DOWN. SATEGNA ABLE TO BEAT HYLTON DOWN THE FIELD. >> Dave: AT THE 44, OF OKLAHOMA STATE. DOWN SEVEN. OUT OF THE PISTOL. HERE'S Ja'QUNDEN JACKSON AND HE GETS DROPPED AFTER A SHORT GAIN. TREY RUCKER COMING DOWN TO MAKE THE HIT. JUST GO ONE YARD PICKUP. GETTING A LOT OF CHUNK RUN PLAYS IN THE FIRST HALF. BEEN BOTTLED UP HERE IN THE SECOND. >> Dusty: THE COWBOYS DEFENSE HAVEN'T GIVEN UP ANY POINTS HERE IN THE SECOND HALF FOR ALL THE STRUGGLES AND CHUNK PLAYS, THE SUCCESS WE SAW FROM THE OFFENSE IN THE FIRST HALF, THIS OKLAHOMA STATE DEFENSE, BOY, THEY HAVE MADE SOME CORRECTS AND ANSWERED THE BELL TO GET THEM BACK IN THIS GAME. >> Dave: GREEN TO THROW ON SECOND AND NINE. HAS TIME, OVER THE MIDDLE. WIDE OPEN IS LUKE HASZ, INTO THE END ZONE, TOUCHDOWN, ARKANSAS! IS SHAKEN UP. HOLDING HIS BACK AFTER HE GETS INTO THE END ZONE. IT TOOK JUST 90 SECONDS FOR ARKANSAS TO BE IN A POSITION TO TIE WITH AN EXTRA POINT. >> Dusty: PRAISING THE DEFENSE FOR THE ADJUSTMENTS THEY MADE. NO ADJUSTMENTS THERE. JUST TOO EASY FOR THE ARKANSAS OFFENSE AND A QUICK STRIKE. >> Dave: FROM BIXBY, OKLAHOMA, COMES UP WITH A HUGE PLAY, THE EXTRA POINT TIES THE GAME AT 28. WHAT A GREAT RESPONSE FROM TAYLEN GREEN AND THE RAZORBACKS HELPED BY SOME CLEAR BREAKDOWNS DEFENSIVELY WITH THE PASS DEFENSE. >> Dusty: LUKE HASZ, ONE OF THE BEST TIGHT ENDS COMING OUT. HE WAS GOOD FOR THEM AS A TRUE FRESHMAN A YEAR AGO AND HE'S GOING TO RUN A VERTICAL ROUTE UP THE FIELD AND NO ONE ACCOUNTS FOR HIM WHATSOEVER. SAFETY SPINS OVER TO THE CENTER OF THE FIELD. KENDAL DANIELS, THE LINEBACKER DID NOT CONTINUE TO GET DEPTH. A HOLE IN THAT ZONE COVERAGE AND EASY FIND FOR TAYLEN GREEN TO LUKE HASZ AND THE OKLAHOMA NATIVE HAS THIS TIED UP IN THE FOURTH. >> Dave: EXPLOSIVE PLAYS GIVEN UP BY OKLAHOMA STATE'S DEFENSE, BIG ISSUE LAST YEAR, HUGE ISSUE IN THE FIRST HALF, THAT WAS REALLY THE FIRST TIME WE SAW IT IN THE SECOND HALF, BUT EIGHT PLAYS IN ALL, 20 YARDS OR LONGER GIVEN UP BY THAT DEFENSE AND WE'RE TIED AT 28, AGAIN, THAT TOOK JUST A MINUTE AND A HALF FOR ARKANSAS TO RESPOND. FIRST POINTS SURRENDERED BY OKLAHOMA STATE HERE IN THE SECOND HALF. DEVIN BALE TO BOOT IT. TOUCHBACK, LET'S CHECK IN WITH KEVIN. >> BACK TO TULANE, BACK AND FORTH IN STILLWATER. SAME STORY HERE. WE'RE TIED AT 27-27 AND HERE COMES THE DEFENSE, BOOG, IT'S JACK AND TO THE HOUSE, SCORE. >> THE ONLY TIME THE DEFENSIVE GUYS GET THEIR NAME IN THE PAPER FOR SOMETHING GOOD, SCOOP AND SCORE, STRIKE THE BAND UP AND PLAY THE FIGHT SONG, BABY. >> ALL RIGHT. NOW IT'S THE WILDCATS UP BY A TOUCHDOWN. LANORRIS SELLERS GETTING READY FOR HIS MATCHUP. LESS THAN 30 MINUTES AWAY ON ABC. BACK TO YOU. >> Dave: BOTH OFFENSES STARTING TO GET IT GOING. EXPLOSIVE PLAYS FROM OKLAHOMA STATE'S OFFENSE THAT HANDED IN A TOUCHDOWN. BOWMAN WILL THROW ON FIRST DOWN. IT'S A SCREEN PASS AND GORDON HAS SOME ROOM. OUT TO THE 35 YARD LINE. CLOSE TO THE FIRST DOWN AND THEY'RE MARKING HIM DOWN. HE CLAIMS HE LANDED ON A RAZORBACK WHICH MEANS HE'S STILL ALIVE BUT HE'S MARKED DOWN AFTER A TEN-YARD GAIN IN THE FIRST DOWN AT THE 35. >> Dusty: TIMELY CALL HERE FROM KASEY DUNN. A BIG PART OF THE OFFENSE WHETHER WIDE RECEIVER SCREENS, THE RUNNING BACK IS A STAPLE AND THE BIG GUYS GET OUT IN FRONT FOR OLLIE GORDON. HE'S DEFINITELY DOWN. THE FANS SAW IT AND HIS HELMET HIT THE GROUND. YES, HE'S DOWN. IF YOU LAND ON ANOTHER PLAYER AS LONG AS SOMETHING OTHER THAN YOUR -- IF YOUR HAND OR FOOT HITS THE FOOT, BUT HE CLEARLY WAS DOWN. THROWING IT INTO TRAFFIC AS PRESLEY GOT HELD UP IN THE FLAT. HE COULD NOT GET AWAY FROM DONEIKO SLAUGHTER THERE, HAND FIGHTING NEAR MIDFIELD. >> Referee: PASS INTERFERENCE, DEFENSE, NUMBER 3. BALL WILL BE PLACED AT THE SPOT OF THE FOUL. AUTOMATIC FIRST DOWN. >> Dave: 3:03 TO GO. DONEIKO SLAUGHTER WORKING ON PRESLEY. >> Dusty: YOU SEE THIS MATCHUP A LOT. GETS HIM AROUND THE WAIST AND GRABBING THAT. GOOD CALL AND AN EASY FLAG. >> Dave: BALL ON THE COWBOY 48. AND VAILAHI SPILLED BY XAVIAN SOREY, A LOSS OF FOUR ON THE PLAY. >> Dusty: XAVIAN SOREY SHOT OUT OF A CANNON. TIMES THIS BLITZ UP PERFECTLY AS HE GETS HOME IN THAT "A" GAP. COLE BIRMINGHAM, ZONE, TRYING TO SCOOP UP TO HIM. JUST A STEP LATE AND A NICE NEGATIVE PLAY BY SOREY. >> Dave: LOSS OF FIVE ON THE PLAY. 2:30 TO GO. SECOND DOWN AND 15. PLAY ACTION. BOWMAN THROWING A DEEP BALL FOR PRESLEY, KNOCKED AWAY, INCOMPLETE. ANOTHER FLAG AGAINST SLAUGHTER, THOUGH. SLAUGHTER UPSET, THOUGHT HE MADE A GOOD PLAY. THE OFFICIALS WILL HAVE A DISCUSSION. >> Referee: PASS INTERFERENCE. DEFENSE, NUMBER 3, 15-YARD PENALTY, AUTOMATIC FIRST DOWN. >> Dave: THAT WILL PUT THE BALL IN ARKANSAS TERRITORY AT THE 42. >> Dusty: I KNOW DONEIKO SLAUGHTER IS FRUSTRATED BUT IT'S THE RIGHT CALL. HE COMES IN AND WITH THAT LEFT HAND RAKES OVER THE BODY AND CREATES CONTACT WITH BRENNAN PRESLEY DOWN THE FIELD. >> Dave: I'M IN AGREEMENT. THE ONLY THING I WOULD SAY IS, WE'VE SEEN THAT A NUMBER OF TIMES TODAY NOT CALLED. WHETHER THERE WAS SOME CONTACT. >> Dusty: TOO MUCH. YOU CAN'T RAKE RIGHT AS THE BALL IS COMING THERE, YOU CREATE THAT CONTACT. THAT WAS THE RIGHT CALL. >> Dave: FIRST DOWN TO THE 42. HERE'S GORDON OFF THE LEFT SIDE, NO RUNNING ROOM. BRAD SPENCE SMACKS HIM AT THE POINT OF ATTACK. THAT WILL LIKELY TAKE US DOWN TO THE TWO-MINUTE TIME-OUT. HE WOULD STILL HAVE THREE TIME-OUTS ON THE OTHER SIDE. KEEP IN MIND OKLAHOMA STATE MOVING THE BALL, LOGAN WARD HAS MADE A 35-YARDER AND A 45-YARDER AND MADE A 52-YARDER LAST WEEK. GOT TO GET >> Dave: TWO MINUTES LEFT IN A TIE GAME. AT THE TEN-MINUTE MARK WE HAD LIFTOFF. SATEGNA MUFFS THE PUNT AND RECOVERED BY OKLAHOMA STATE. A TOUCHDOWN PASS WAS CALLED INITIALLY OFFENSIVE PASS INTERFERENCE THEN PICK UP THE FLAG AND PRESLEY ON A JET SWEEP, OKLAHOMA STATE WITH THE LEAD BY SEVEN. ARKANSAS COMES BACK WITH A TOUCHDOWN TO TIE THE GAME BUT NOW THE COWBOYS ARE ON THE MOVE AT THE 42 YARD LINE OF ARKANSAS. SECOND DOWN AND TEN. PLAY ACTION, BOWMAN. AND NOBODY HOME ON THAT THROW. INTENDED FOR RASHOD OWENS BUT IT WAS WAY BEHIND HIM AND THROWN OUTSIDE AND IT'S THIRD AND TEN. >> Dusty: JUST A MISFIRE THERE FROM ALAN BOWMAN. JUST DID NOT LOOK LIKE HE WAS ON THE SAME PAGE WITH HIS WIDE RECEIVER AND YOU GOT THIRD AND LONG SITUATION. >> Dave: BY IS SESI VAILAHI. WE'VE SEEN HIM A LOT AND NO OLLIE GORDON. THIRD AND TEN AT THE 42. BOWMAN BACK TO THROW. PRESSURE UP THE MIDDLE. BOWMAN LOBS IT OFF HIS BACK FOOT, DEEP, IT'S CAUGHT. INSIDE THE 10, BRENNAN PRESLEY, THE GO-TO GUY AGAIN, FIRST AND GOAL, OKLAHOMA STATE. >> Dusty: WHEN IT DOUBT DIAL UP NUMBER 80. HOW ABOUT THIS RIGHT HERE, PICKING UP THE BLITZ AND THEY BRING PRESSURE AND IT'S 82, QUINTON STEWART GIVING ALAN BOWMAN JUST ENOUGH TIME OFF HIS BACK FOOT TO FIND A DEEP CROSSING ROUTE AND BRENNAN PRESLEY FOR A MASSIVE, MASSIVE PLAY. >> Dave: NOT SURE WHAT THE CONVERSATION IS ABOUT. >> Referee: AFTER THE PLAY WAS OVER, UNSPORTSMANLIKE CONDUCT, NUMBER 7 ON THE OFFENSE. >> Dusty: WOW. >> Referee: THAT 15-YARD PENALTY WILL BE ENFORCED. THAT IS NUMBER 7'S FIRST UNSPORTSMANLIKE CONDUCT OF THE GAME. >> Dusty: THIS IS HUGE AND TAKES THE BALL FROM THE 6 YARD LINE BECAUSE ALAN BOWMAN IS CALLED FOR TAUNTING. >> Dave: YOU SEE HIM LOOKING TOWARDS THE ARKANSAS SIDELINE AND PUSHES THEM BACK NOW TO THE 21. IT WAS GOING TO BE FIRST AND GOAL. >> Dusty: ALAN BOWMAN IS SO MATURE, VETERAN GUY. TALKING TO US AND HAS HIS UNDERGRAD, MASTER, GRAD CERTIFICATE, HIS REAL ESTATE LICENSE, KNOWS BETTER THAN TO DO THAT IN THAT SPOT. >> Dave: STILL IN FIELD GOAL RANGE. 1:48 TO GO, FIRST DOWN. INTERESTING THAT ARKANSAS USED A TIME-OUT IN THAT SITUATION RIGHT THERE. THAT WILL LEAD THE RAZORBACKS WITH TWO. ASSUMING THE CLOCK WOULD HAVE STARTED ON THE READY FOR PLAY, EVEN AFTER THE TAUNTING, BECAUSE THE FIRST DOWN, THE TACKLE WAS MADE IN BALANCE INSIDE TWO MINUTES THEY GET RID OF THE CHAINS AND RESET IT. I'M ASSUMING THAT'S WHY SAM PITTMAN CALLED HIS FIRST TIME-OUT THERE ANTICIPATING THE CLOCK TO START RUNNING. >> Dusty: FREEZE IT THERE. THIS PICKUP HERE BY STEWART, ABLE TO JUST GIVE HIM ENOUGH TIME AND DELIVER THIS PASS TO BRENNAN PRESLEY, JUST THROW IT OUT AND LET YOUR GUY GO GET THE FOOTBALL. THAT'S WHAT BRENNAN PRESLEY DOES, ABLE TO GET A STEP ON TJ METCALF. SOMETIMES IT'S JUST THE LITTLE THINGS AND IT'S A BACKUP TIGHT END AND QUINTON STEWART WITH A KEY BLOCK DEALT THAT BIG PLAY. >> Dave: TWO TIME-OUTS LEFT FOR ARKANSAS. 1:48 LEFT IN A TIE GAME. FIRST AND TEN ON THE 21 YARD LINE OF ARKANSAS. IT'LL BE GORDON AND NOWHERE TO GO. LOSS OF TWO. XAVIAN SOREY MADE THE TACKLE. GORDON THOUGHT THERE WAS A FACE MASK PENALTY ON SOREY. BUT NO FLAG THROWN AND A TIME-OUT TAKEN BY ARKANSAS. JUST FIVE SECONDS OFF THE CLOCK. >> Dusty: A MISSILE OFF THE EDGE, SECOND TIME WE'VE SEEN HIM TIME THE BLITZES UP PERFECTLY UNACCOUNTED FOR. ANOTHER NEGATIVE PLAY, JUST KIND OF IN THE THEME OF THIS BALL GAME FOR OLLIE GORDON AND THIS RUSHING ATTACK. OLLIE GORDON NOW JUST 29 YARDS ON THE GROUND IN THIS BALL GAME. >> Dave: START OF A TERRIFIC DAY OF COLLEGE FOOTBALL, KENTUCKY/SOUTH CAROLINA UP NEXT ON ABC AND WE FINISH WITH N.C. STATE/TENNESSEE ON ABC, ALABAMA WHICH BEAT WESTERN KENTUCKY HANDILY IN THE OPENER, THE CAELEN DeBOER ERA LAST WEEK HOSTING SOUTH FLORIDA AND DEDICATE THE FIELD TO NICK SABAN AT THAT GAME IN TUSCALOOSA. STILL, A LOT CAN HAPPEN HERE IN STILLWATER. SECOND DOWN AND 12. FROM HERE IT WOULD BE ABOUT A 40-YARD FIELD GOAL TRY. OBVIOUSLY TWO MORE DOWNS TO GO BEFORE WE GET THERE. ARKANSAS DOWN TO ONE TIME-OUT LEFT. AND BOWMAN WILL HAND IT OFF TO GORDON AND HE STOOD UP AT THE 22, ARKANSAS WILL CALL ITS LAST TIME-OUT, 1:37 TO GO. SO NOW YOU'RE LOOKING AT THIRD DOWN AND 11 AND LET'S CHECK IN WITH KEVIN NEGHANDI. >> BROCK VANDAGRIFF. >> HE'S BRINGING NEW LIFE TO THE POSITION. WELL-COACHED FOOTBALL TEAM THERE. CAN HE MAKE A DIFFERENCE TODAY AGAINST SOUTH CAROLINA? >> EIGHTH STRAIGHT SEASON THEY'RE STARTING A TRANSFER QUARTERBACK IN THEIR OPENER AND CONTINUE IN WEEK TWO AS THEY GET READY FOR SOUTH CAROLINA. BACK TO YOU. >> Dave: SO THIRD DOWN AND 11. WHAT DO YOU DO? RUN THE BALL HERE? TAKE THE CLOCK DOWN TO ABOUT 50 SECONDS AND KICK A FIELD GOAL OR TRUST ALAN BOWMAN TO THROW IT AND COMPLETE A PASS? >> Dusty: NOW ARKANSAS WITHOUT ANY TIME-OUTS. YOU FEEL PRETTY CONFIDENT IN YOUR KICKING GAME AND TAKE THE LEAD, FORCE TAYLEN GREEN TO GO DOWN WITH NO TIME-OUTS. I THINK THEY'RE GOING TO PLAY THAT WAY. I THINK THEY'LL KEEP THE BALL. IF HE DOES THROW IT, SOMETHING QUICK, EASY OUT OF HIS HAND AND KNOW YOU CAN COMPLETE IT BUT I EXPECT THE RUN HERE. TRUST YOU MAKE THE FIELD GOAL AND TRUST YOUR DEFENSE TO GET A STOP. >> Dave: AND IT WILL BE A RUN. GORDON HAD SOME ROOM. STILL GETS DOWN TO THE 15. IT'S FOURTH DOWN AND FOUR. THEY CAN TAKE THE CLOCK DOWN HERE TO ABOUT 50 SECONDS OR SO. CALL A TIME-OUT AND BRING ON THEIR KICKER, LOGAN WARD, FOR ABOUT A 33-YARD TRY. >> Dusty: I THINK THAT'S THE RIGHT CALL. PUT YOURSELF IN THIS POSITION. AS CRAZY AS THIS GAME HAS BEEN TO BE ABLE TO GIVE YOUR FIELD GOAL KICKER THE BALL RIGHT THERE, CENTER OF THE FIELD, BE ABLE TO MAKE THIS, TAKE THE LEAD, UNDER A MINUTE TO PLAY AND TRUST ME, YOUR DEFENSE CAN GET A STOP AND ARKANSAS WITHOUT A TIME-OUT. >> Dave: NOT SURE WHY THE CLOCK HAS BEEN STOPPED. REFEREE MATT LOEFFLER STOPPED THE CLOCK. THE CLOCK WAS RUNNING, AND IT SHOULD GO DOWN AGAIN TO ABOUT 50 SECONDS. MAYBE THE PLAY CLOCK DIDN'T START PROPERLY, AND THAT'S WHY LOEFFLER STOPPED THE GAME. SO, IT'S GOING TO BE ABOUT A 32 OR 33-YARD FIELD GOAL TRY. ASSUMING THEY DON'T GO FOR IT. ARKANSAS OUT OF TIME-OUTS. >> Dusty: JOKING THERE. >> Dave: YES. >> Dusty: WE HEARD THE CHUCKLE UNDER YOUR BREATH. >> Referee: PLEASE RESET THE GAME CLOCK TO 1:34 AND THE PLAY CLOCK TO 40 SECONDS. LISTEN TO ME, 1:40. >> Dave: HE'S TALKING TO MIKE GUNDY WHEN HE SAYS LISTEN TO ME BUT THE PLAY CLOCK IS GOING TO RUN AT -- MIKE GUNDY IS UPSET BUT I'M ASSUMING HE'S TELLING MIKE GUNDY THE PLAY CLOCK IS GOING TO START AS WELL AS THE GAME CLOCK. ALL RIGHT, LET'S BRING IN BILL LeMONNIER. BILL, SHOULDN'T THE GAME CLOCK STILL RUN HERE? MIKE GUNDY IS REALLY UPSET. >> Bill: YEAH, IF YOU GO BACK AND PUT THE GAME CLOCK TO WHERE IT WAS WHEN THE RUNNER WAS TACKLED AND THE 40-SECOND CLOCK, YOU WOULD START THE CLOCK. >> Dave: THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT WE'RE SAYING TOO, BILL. WHICH IS INTERESTING WHY MIKE GUNDY IS STILL UPSET. I ASSUME MATT LOEFFLER, THE REFEREE WOULD HAVE TOLD HIM EXACTLY WHAT THEY'RE GOING TO DO BUT THE CLOCK HASN'T STARTED YET. >> Bill: I'M WONDERING -- NOW THEY ARE STARTING THE CLOCK. >> Dave: YEAH, YEAH. JUST AGAIN NOT SURE WHY MIKE GUNDY WAS SO UPSET ABOUT IT AND STILL WAS UPSET AFTER HE WAS GIVEN THE EXPLANATION AS TO WHAT THEY WERE DOING. >> Dusty: HE'S STILL GIVING THE OFFICIAL AN EARFUL OVER ON THE SIDE. I'M ASSUMING HE THOUGHT THAT A CLOCK WAS FURTHER ALONG. >> Dave: THEY'RE LINING UP. >> Dusty: I DON'T THINK THEY'LL SNAP THE FOOTBALL. >> Dave: THEY'RE LINING UP ON FOURTH AND FOUR AS IF THEY'RE GOING TO SNAP IT. ONE WOULD ASSUME THEY'RE NOT GOING TO SNAP IT. MOVEMENT BY OKLAHOMA STATE NOW AND THAT WILL PUSH THE BALL BACK TO THE 20 YARD LINE MAKING IT ABOUT A 37 OR 38-YARD FIELD GOAL UNLESS ARKANSAS DID SOMETHING DEFENSIVELY THAT FORCED ONE OF THE OFFENSIVE LINEMEN TO MOVE. >> Dusty: JUNCAJ MOVED. THE QUESTION IS DID JUNCAJ MOVE AND DID DALTON COOPER RESPOND TO THAT MOVEMENT? IF THAT'S THE CASE IT'S GOING TO BE A FIVE-YARD PENALTY AND FREE FIRST DOWN. >> Dave: AND THEN IF OKLAHOMA STATE WANTS TO THEY CAN KEEP THE OFFENSE ON THE FIELD AND HAVE TIME-OUTS AND CAN TRY TO RUN THE BALL OR THROW IT AND GET IT INTO THE END ZONE. ARKANSAS IS OUT OF TIME-OUTS. THEY DON'T HAVE TO KICK IT RIGHT NOW. BUT LET'S SEE. THERE'S STILL A CONVERSATION GOING ON TO WHETHER THAT WAS INITIATED BY THE DEFENSE. >> Referee: FALSE START. >> Dusty: IT WAS NOT. >> Dave: WOW. >> Referee: FIVE-YARD PENALTY, IT'S FOURTH DOWN. >> Dave: SO NOW THE CLOCK IS -- AND, AGAIN, IF YOU'RE ARKANSAS YOU GAIN TIME HERE BECAUSE THE CLOCK STARTS ON THE SNAP NOW BECAUSE OF THE FALSE START PENALTY. >> Dusty: I DON'T KNOW. YOU SEE FOUR -- JUNCAJ. IF THE DEFENDER GOES INTO THE NEUTRAL ZONE DOESN'T THE ADJACENT -- >> Bill: YES, THE THING I CAN'T TELL FROM THE LAST SHOT DID HE GET IN THE NEUTRAL ZONE? IF HE'S IN THE NEUTRAL ZONE AND THE ADJACENT OFFENSIVE LINEMAN PICKS UP THAT WILL BE ON THE DEFENSE. >> Dave: THANK YOU, BILL AND MIKE GUNDY WANTS LOEFFLER TO EXPLAIN WHY THE CLOCK IS NOT STARTING HERE. HE THOUGHT THE CLOCK WOULD RUN BUT, AGAIN, THAT WAS A FALSE START PENALTY WHICH STOPPED THE CLOCK AND SO THE NEXT SNAP IS WHEN THE CLOCK STARTS. AND, AGAIN, THAT HELPS ARKANSAS IN THIS SITUATION. THEY'LL HAVE 59 SECONDS LEFT, AGAIN, NO TIME-OUTS BUT WHAT WILL THE SCORE BE? WILL OKLAHOMA STATE BE UP THREE OR STILL BE TIED. LOGAN WARD WITH A 38-YARD ATTEMPT. WARD DRILLS IT. OKLAHOMA STATE BY THREE WITH 55 SECONDS LEFT. >> Dusty: ICE WATER IN THE VEINS OF THE COWBOY KICKER. JUST DRILLS IT, DAVE. NO DOUBT. CONFIDENT KICK. HERE'S THE LAST PLAY. I MEAN, NO, I THINK THAT'S THE WRONG CALL. >> Dave: IS HE IN THE NEUTRAL ZONE? IT LOOKED LIKE IT FROM THAT ANGLE. AGAIN WE'RE NOT COMPLETELY DOWN THE LINE BUT LOOKED LIKE HE WAS IN THE NEUTRAL ZONE. >> Dusty: THAT'S WHY OKLAHOMA STATE WAS CELEBRATING. >> Dave: CORRECT. >> IF YOU WATCH JUNCAJ, WATCH HIM RIGHT HERE, HIS HELMET, WE HAD THE BLACK LINE A SECOND AGO. SEE WHERE THE BALL IS AT. HIS HELMET IS IN THE NEUTRAL ZONE AND THAT TACKLE HAS THE ABILITY TO KICK BUT NOW ALL OF A SUDDEN WITH THAT CALL NOT MADE AND BEING A FALSE START INSTEAD ARKANSAS IS GOING TO GET THE BALL BACK AND TAYLEN GREEN IS GOING TO HAVE 55 SECONDS TO OPERATE. >> Dave: AND KEEP IN MIND OKLAHOMA STATE HAS KICKED IT OUT OF BOUNDS AS WELL HERE IN THE SECOND HALF TWICE. IF IT HAPPENS A THIRD TIME, ARKANSAS WOULD GET IT AT THE 35. INSTEAD THEY'LL HAVE IT ON THE 25 AFTER THE FAIR CATCH, SO NO TIME-OUTS AND HERE COMES TAYLEN GREEN. CAN HE GET ARKANSAS IN FIELD GOAL RANGE WITH NO TIME-OUTS? BOISE STATE TRANSFER IN JUST HIS SECOND GAME WITH THE RAZORBACKS. HE'S HAD SOME GREAT MOMENTS IN THIS GAME AND HE'S ALSO MADE SOME UNFORCED ERRORS, MISHANDLING A COUPLE OF SNAPS, AN INTERCEPTION THAT REALLY WASN'T HIS FAULT. GREAT PLAY BY COLLIN OLIVER, THAT INTERCEPTION WAS RETURNED FOR A TOUCHDOWN, WHICH IS BASICALLY THE DIFFERENCE IN THE GAME RIGHT NOW. GREEN BACK TO THROW ON FIRST AND 10. WAITING, LOOKING, EVERYBODY COVERED. NOW HE STEPS UP AND THROWS AND GETTING OUT OF BOUNDS IS JACKSON TO STOP THE CLOCK WITH 47 SECONDS LEFT AND A GAIN OF EIGHT. >> Dusty: WISELY GETS OUT OF BOUNDS TO STOP THE CLOCK. NOW HE'S DOWN. >> Dave: WOW. JACKSON, WE'VE SEEN HIM SEVERAL TIMES TODAY GO TO THE SIDELINE CRAMPING, I WOULD IMAGINE THAT'S WHAT'S HAPPENING HERE, THE WAY HE HIT THE DECK. >> Taylor: I HAVE WATCHED HIM ON THE SIDELINE ALL DAY LONG. HE HAS BEEN BATTLING INJURIES. HE'S BEEN IN PHYSICAL PAIN COMING ON AND OFF THE FIELD BEING WITH TRAINERS ESSENTIALLY ALL DAY LONG SO YOU CAN SEE RIGHT HERE REACHING A CLIMAX IN PAIN YET AGAIN. >> Dave: THANK YOU, TAYLOR. HE WILL GO OUT FOR AT LEAST ONE PLAY. THAT'S WHAT IT'S BEEN, OUT FOR A PLAY, COME BACK. CAN HE -- IS HE IN A SITUATION TO BE ABLE TO DO THAT AGAIN HERE, BECAUSE HE'S HAD SUCH A GREAT DAY, THREE RUSHING TOUCHDOWNS. 47 SECONDS LEFT. NO TIME-OUTS, SECOND AND TWO FOR THE RAZORBACKS ON THEIR 33 TRAILING BY THREE. RODNEY HILL, TRANSFER FROM FLORIDA STATE AND FLORIDA A&M IS HIS REPLACEMENT. GREEN TO THROW, WITH TIME AGAIN EVERYBODY COVERED AND THAT PASS NEARLY PICKED OFF. IT WAS DEFLECTED BY DANIELS, THE LINEBACKER, IN SPACE, THIRD DOWN, 42 SECONDS LEFT. >> Dusty: NICE SHOT IN PRESSURE OFF TAYLEN GREEN COMING OFFER THE EDGE. THIS IS WHERE THE 6'4" KENDAL DANIELS IN THOSE LANES BECOMES A KEY. NICE JOB WITH THE DROP AND YOU SEE THE BALL. JUST OUT OF DANIELS' HANDS. >> Dave: THEY RUN IT ON THIRD DOWN AND TWO AND IT'S A FIRST DOWN FOR RODNEY HILL OUT TO THE 40 YARD LINE, THE CLOCK WILL START ON THE READY FOR PLAY INSIDE TWO MINUTES, THERE IT STARTS, 35 SECONDS AND COUNTING. THEY GOT TO HURRY, TRYING TO GET THE PLAY IN. 30 SECONDS AND COUNTING. AND GREEN SPIKES IT. THEY JUST WASTED ALL THAT TIME. IF YOU'RE GOING TO SPIKE IT, DO IT INITIALLY, WHY WAIT TEN SECONDS TO SPIKE IT? >> Dusty: IT'S A GREAT POINT AND START TO WONDER WHERE DOES ARKANSAS NEED TO GET? WE ASKED YESTERDAY SAM PITTMAN ABOUT HIS KICKING GAME. WE FEEL LIKE 25 FEELS ANYWHERE SAFE IS WHERE THIS ARKANSAS OFFENSE HAS TO GO SO A LOT OF GROUND NEEDS TO BE COVERED IN A SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME. >> Dave: FOUR-MAN RUSH, GREEN, DOWN THE MIDDLE, INCOMPLETE. HE HAD TYRONE BRODEN, OVERSHOT HIM, THIRD DOWN, 23 SECONDS LEFT. >> Dusty: A MISFIRE, BALL JUST OUT IN FRONT OF HIS BIG TARGET OVER THE MIDDLE OF THE FIELD. >> Dave: SO YOU NEED ANOTHER 20 TO 30 YARDS WITH 23 SECONDS TO GO. ANYTHING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FIELD IF IT'S SHORT OF THE STICKS THAT CLOCK IS RUNNING. SO IF IT'S TO THE MIDDLE OF THE FIELD YOU GOT TO GET A FIRST DOWN TO STOP THE CLOCK. GREEN STEPS UP AND THROWS, COMPLETE, ARMSTRONG IS LOOSE INSIDE THE 30 AND FINALLY DROPPED INSIDE THE 30 OUT OF BOUNDS AT THE 27 WITH 12 SECONDS TO GO. IT WOULD BE ABOUT A 45-YARD FIELD GOAL FROM HERE. NOW THEY RESTART THE CLOCK. HE STAYED INBOUNDS SO THE CLOCK IS MOVING, EIGHT SECONDS LEFT. >> Dusty: SPIKE IT. >> Dave: THEY'RE NOT GOING TO SPIKE IT, FOUR SECONDS LEFT. GREEN'S HEAD, HE THROWS, INCOMPLETE. THE CLOCK IS AT 2, THOUGH. >> Dusty: THEY STILL HAVE TIME BUT THAT WAS BUTCHERED BY ARKANSAS. ALMOST A DISASTROUS FINISH TO THIS GAME. IF ARMSTRONG CATCHES THAT BALL AND TACKLED THAT'S BALL GAME. NO CHANCE AT THIS FIELD GOAL. TAYLEN GREEN JUST UNAWARE OF THE SITUATION AND WHERE THE CLOCK WAS AT IN THAT SPOT. >> Dave: I THINK THEY THOUGHT THAT THE BALL -- THAT THE RUNNER WAS OUT OF BOUNDS AND THE CLOCK WOULD START ON THE SNAP BUT -- BECAUSE THEY PANICKED AS SOON AS THEY PUT THE BALL DOWN BUT NOW A 45-YARD FIELD GOAL TRY BY RAMSEY TO TIE THE GAME. TRANSFER FROM ABILENE CHRISTIAN. AND THE KICK IS GOOD JUST INSIDE THE RIGHT UPRIGHT. OKLAHOMA STATE ELECTS NOT TO FREEZE THE KICKER IN THAT SITUATION MIKE GUNDY DOESN'T CALL A TIME-OUT. KYLE RAMSEY BURIES IT AND WE ARE GOING TO OVERTIME. HERE IN STILLWATER. KYLE RAMSEY IN THE SPOTLIGHT ON THE BIG STAGE DELIVERS TO SEND THE GAME TO O.T. >> Announcer: WELCOME TO OVERTIME PRESENTED BY CHEEZ-IT. IT'S CRUNCH TIME. >> Dave: THIS GAME EARLY ON LOOKED LIKE THERE WAS NO CHANCE OF OVERTIME. ARKANSAS WAS DOMINATING, UP 14-0. OKLAHOMA STATE SCORING BACK, TOOK THE LEAD BUT ARKANSAS TIES IT WITH A LONG FIELD GOAL AT THE BUZZER TO SEND IT TO OVERTIME. OUR OVERTIME RULES PRESENTED BY CHEEZ-IT. SO THE COIN TOSS WINNER DECIDES OFFENSE, DEFENSE OR END OF FIELD AND REMEMBER NOW WHEN YOU GET TO THE SECOND OVERTIME IF WE GET THERE YOU MUST ATTEMPT A TWO-POINT CONVERSION AND TO A THIRD OVERTIME IT'S ALTERNATING TWO-POINT CONVERSION ATTEMPTS. >> Dusty: WHAT A GAME, WOW. A WILD, WILD SECOND HALF HERE IN STILLWATER, AND HOW ABOUT TAYLEN GREEN? I MEAN, LEADING THEM DOWN, IT WAS KIND OF CRAZY THERE AT THE END BEFORE THAT FIELD GOAL BUT TO PUT THEM IN POSITION TO MAKE THOSE PLAYS, OBVIOUSLY THE TRANSFER QUARTERBACK FROM BOISE WON A MOUNTAIN WEST CHAMPIONSHIP A YEAR AGO BUT A STAGE LIKE THIS AS A QUARTERBACK AT ARKANSAS, A HUGE, HUGE DRIVE TO PUT THEM IN FIELD GOAL RANGE TO TIE THE GAME UP. >> Dave: MIKE GUNDY HAD TIME-OUT, ELECTED NOT TO USE IT TO FREEZE THE KICKER. SOMETIMES IT WORK, SOMETIMES IT DOESN'T. YOU HAVE A YOUNG KICKER, NOT YOUNG BUT IN TERMS OF THIS STAGE HE PLAYED AT AB LINE CHRISTIAN, FIFTH YEAR SENIOR BUT NOT UNDER THE SPOTLIGHT LIKE THIS AND ELECTED NOT TO CALL THE TIME-OUT AND BURIED A 45-YARDER. AND WE'RE READY FOR THE COIN TOSS. AND MATT LOEFFLER, THE REFEREE DOES NOT HAVE HIS MIC TURNED ON. THAT'S WHY YOU CANNOT HEAR IT AT HOME. HOPEFULLY MATT WILL TURN IT ON FOR US SO WE CAN FIGURE OUT WHO WON THE TOSS. THERE WE GO. >> Referee: CHOOSES TO PLAY DEFENSE. IT'LL BE FIRST DOWN, ARKANSAS. >> Dave: TO THE STUDIO REAL QUICK. >> WANT TO REMIND OUR AUDIENCE, KENTUCKY/SOUTH CAROLINA UNDERWAY ON ESPN NEWS AND SEE THAT ON ABC AFTER OVERTIME BETWEEN OKLAHOMA STATE AND ARKANSAS, BACK TO YOU, DUSTY AND TAYLOR. >> Dave: ALL RIGHT, KEV, OKLAHOMA STATE WON THE TOSS AND ELECTED TO PLAY DEFENSE SO ARKANSAS BALL AT THE 25 YARD LINE. AGAIN, FOR SAM PITTMAN, HE TOLD US IN OUR MEETING WITH HIM YESTERDAY, I DON'T READ STUFF, BUT BELIEVE ME, I KNOW. I KNOW I'M ON THE HOT SEAT. I KNOW WE NEED A WIN BUT I'M NOT WORRIED ABOUT ME. I FEEL GOOD ABOUT MY TEAM. LAST YEAR HE SAID WE'RE PLAYING WITH HOPE, THIS YEAR WE'RE PLAYING WITH BELIEF. WE'VE SEEN A DIFFERENT ARKANSAS TEAM FOR MOST OF THIS GAME BUT ONE THING THAT BIT THEM LAST YEAR, NOT CLOSING OUT GAMES. WILL IT HAPPEN AGAIN HERE AND A HUGE GAME WEEK TWO OF 2024 AND ON THE OKLAHOMA STATE SIDE, KNOWING THE BIG TEN AND S.E.C. PROBABLY GOING TO GET SOME OF THE AT-LARGE BIDS. IF YOU LOSE THIS GAME YOU MAY HAVE TO WING THE BIG 12 CHAMPIONSHIP TO GET THAT AUTOMATIC BID TO MAKE THE COLLEGE FOOTBALL PLAYOFF. GREEN ON FIRST DOWN. HAS TIME TO THROW, EVERYBODY COVERED. NOW TAKES OFF, GREEN BEING CHASED AT THE 35 AND NOW THROWS INTO THE END ZONE, INCOMPLETE. HE HAD A RECEIVER, ARMSTRONG. COULD NOT CONNECT WITH HIM. >> Dusty: THIS IS REALLY WELL DEFENDED BY OKLAHOMA STATE. PLAY ACTION BOOT, ROLL THE POCKET LIKE WE'VE SEEN, WATCH LUKE HASZ SNEAK OUT. THAT'S WHERE HE WANTED TO GO BUT IT'S PICKED UP. DYLAN SMITH, THE SAFETY, SEES THAT, THAT'S WHERE THE EYES OF TAYLEN GREEN WENT, WELL COVERED, FLUSHES. GOOD DEFENSE ON FIRST DOWN BY THE COWBOYS. >> Dave: SECOND AND TEN NOW AT THE 25. Ja'QUNDEN JACKSON HAS NOT RETURNED. WE SAW THE STAR RUNNING BACK FOR ARKANSAS ON THE SIDELINE A LOT TODAY AND SO IT'S HILL GETTING THE CARRY AND HE BREAKS A TACKLE AND PICKS UP A FIRST DOWN, A GAIN OF 12 TO THE 13 YARD LINE FOR RODNEY HILL. >> Dusty: LIKE WE'VE SEEN ALL GAME, JOSHUA BRAUN, RIGHT GUARD, THE CENTER, ADDISON NICHOLS, SO MUCH PUSH AND MOVEMENT OPENS UP THAT NATURAL CUTBACK. GOOD VISION AND DOWNHILL RUNNING BY RODNEY HILL. >> Dave: ARKANSAS LOOKING TO STRIKE FIRST IN O.T., FIRST DOWN AT THE 13 YARD LINE. GREEN KEEPS IT AND TAKEN DOWN, ANOTHER NICK MARTIN TACKLE FOR A LOSS. HE'S GOT FIVE HERE IN THIS GAME, A LOSS OF SIX. >> Dusty: JUST PLAYS SO FAST. YOU'LL SEE HIM COME IN OFF THE EDGE HERE UNACCOUNTED FOR. ALSO BEEN EZEIGBO ALL THROUGHOUT THE COURSE OF THE GAME. COLLIN OLIVER LEFT EARLY IN THIS GAME AND THE DEFENSIVE TOUCHDOWN BY OKLAHOMA STATE AS EZEIGBO'S BEEN GOOD, FILLING IN FOR HIM AND NICK MARTIN HAS BEEN OTHER WORLDLY CREATING NEGATIVE PLAYS. >> Dave: AND THAT LOSS WOULD BE HUGE. BEST PLAYER ON DEFENSE, SECOND AND 16. FOR ARKANSAS AT THE 19 YARD LINE NOW. GREEN TO THROW. PRESSURE OFF THE EDGE. GREEN GETS RID OF IT AND IT'S GOING TO GET THEM TO THE 15 YARD LINE WITH HASZ MAKING THE CATCH SO A PICKUP OF FOUR, THIRD AND 12, IT WAS EZEIGBO AGAIN WITH SOME PRESSURE. >> Dusty: UNACCOUNTED FOR. JUST TURNED HIM LOOSE AND ANOTHER HIT ON THE QUARTERBACK OF THE HE'S GOT TO RELEASE IT QUICK AND JUST DROP IT TO HIS CHECKDOWN. THIRD DOWN HAS BEEN SUCH A BIG DOWN FOR ARKANSAS. 11 OF 17 IN THIS SPOT. ANDREW ARMSTRONG BACK IN THE LINEUP AND A GUY THAT THEY'VE GONE TO IN THESE SPOTS. >> Dave: AT THE BOTTOM OF THE FORMATION THERE, GREEN LOOKING THE OTHER WAY INSTEAD NOW COMES BACK TO THE MIDDLE. IN TROUBLE, SACKED BACK AT THE 28 YARD LINE, MAYBE OUT OF FIELD GOAL RANGE AND IT'S EZEIGBO, THE TRANSFER FROM GANNON UNIVERSITY, DIVISION 2 SCHOOL IN ERIE, PENNSYLVANIA, WHERE THEY FOUND THEIR DEFENSIVE COORDINATOR BRYAN NARDO A YEAR AGO. >> Dusty: WHAT A PERFORMANCE BY EZEIGBO TODAY. HE WILL START COMING UP AND WILL COME INSIDE LATE. THE COVERAGE IS REALLY GOOD. TAYLEN GREEN HAS NOWHERE TO GO WITH THE BALL AND AS HE COMES INSIDE GREEN CONTINUES TO SURVEY THE FIELD, NO ONE IS OPEN AND A BIG SACK. >> Dave: KYLE RAMSEY MADE THE 45-YARDER AT THE BUZZER OF REGULATION BUT MISSED A 41-YARDER EARLIER IN THE GAME. THIS FROM 46 HOOKING AND IT'S NO GOOD. OKLAHOMA STATE CAN WIN IT WITH A FIELD GOAL ON ITS FIRST POSSESSION OF OVERTIME. >> Dusty: THIS BALL JUST PULLED A LITTLE INSIDE AND LOOKS LIKE IT CAME OFF THE FOOT CLEAN, PLENTY OF DISTANCE. YOU PUT IT PROPERLY, PARTNER, HE HOOKS THAT LEFT AND IF YOU ARE -- >> Dave: TAKING A SACK MIGHT HAVE BEEN THE DIFFERENCE THERE. >> Dusty: ABSOLUTELY. THAT WAS LATE AND THE COWBOYS SIDELINE ERUPTS AS THEY FEEL GREAT ABOUT WHAT THEY HAVE IN THEIR KICKER AND THIS SPOT AND THIS SITUATION. >> Dave: LOGAN WARD IS 3 OF 3 AND MADE 38, 35 FIELD GOALS SO FAR IN THE GAME FOR OKLAHOMA STATE. WE'LL SEE HOW THEY HANDLE THIS POSSESSION. POINTS OF ANY KIND WILL WIN IT FOR THE COWBOYS. THEY'LL KEEP IT ON THE GROUND WITH GORDON. DOWN TO THE 23 FOR A COUPLE. SOREY MADE THE TACKLE. HOPING THEY CAN GET A STOP. >> Dusty: HELD IN CHECK THROUGHOUT THE COURSE OF THE DAY. >> Dave: JUST KEEP IT THERE? >> Dusty: I THINK YOU DO. YOU TRUST YOUR KICKER. I THINK IMMENSELY IF YOU'RE MIKE GUNDY. >> Dave: LOGAN WARD HAS BEEN REALLY GOOD AGAINST SOUTH DAKOTA STATE. >> Dusty: 3 OF 3. REALLY GOOD HERE TODAY AND COULD KEEP IT ON THE GROUND HERE WITH OLLIE GORDON. >> Dave: AND THEY WILL BUT GORDON IS GOING TO LOSE A YARD. DID WELL TO FIGHT THROUGH THE ARM TACKLE. BROUGHT DOWN BY GREGORY AND GORDON IS STILL DOWN FOR OKLAHOMA STATE. AND NOW BACK TO HIS FEET, MIGHT HAVE BEEN FRUSTRATED RATHER THAN BANGED UP SO NOW IT'S THIRD DOWN AND A LONG SEVEN. >> Dusty: YOU HAVE A VETERAN QUARTERBACK AND TALKED ABOUT ALAN BOWMAN, SEVENTH YEAR SUPER SENIOR, ADDITIONAL SEASON, PUT THE BALL IN HIS HANDS, DOESN'T FEEL LIKE IT WHEN YOU LOOK AT THIS PERSONNEL IN THE GAME RIGHT NOW. >> Dave: YOU WANT TO GIVE UP A SACK. ARKANSAS JUST DID. TIME-OUT BY MIKE GUNDY. THAT COST ARKANSAS TAKING THAT SACK, THROWING THE BALL THERE SO SEE WHAT HAPPENS. THE CROWD WAS CHANTING OLLIE'S NAME THERE. WANTING THE HEISMAN TROPHY CANDIDATE TO GET THE TOUCH HERE. >> Dusty: MY EXPECTATION IN THIS SPOT. PUT THE BALL IN OLLIE GORDON'S HANDS, TURFE SLEDDING ALL THROUGHOUT THE COURSE OF THE DAY. IF YOU CAN ESCAPE THIS GAME AND GET THIS VICTORY, BOY, MIKE GUNDY WILL TAKE THAT IN A HEARTBEAT. >> Dave: WE TALKED ABOUT THIS WHEN WE FOUND OUT ABOUT THE EXPANDED PLAYOFF. WHAT WOULD THAT MEAN? A LOT THOUGHT IT WOULD ENHANCE THE REGULAR SEASON. IT HAS, A GAME LIKE THIS WHERE, YOU KNOW, FOR OKLAHOMA STATE, AND MIKE GUNDY, IT WAS COMING FROM HIM IN OUR CONVERSATION WITH HIM. HE KNEW THIS WAS IMPORTANT BECAUSE ASSUMING THAT THE S.E.C. BIG TEN WILL GET SEVERAL AT LARGES THERE MAY ONLY BE ONE TEAM FROM THE BIG 12 BUT A WIN LIKE THIS COULD BUILD YOUR RESUME AS BOWMAN KEEPS IT, RUNS TO THE SPOT. I IMAGINE WHERE THE KICKER WANTS IT AND IT'S GOING TO BE ABOUT A 41 OR 42-YARD FIELD GOAL TRY FROM LOGAN WARD TO WIN THE GAME IN OVERTIME. BUT A CHANCE TO BUILD THE RESUME FOR MIKE GUNDY'S TEAM HERE RIDING ON THIS KICK. >> Dusty: TALKED ABOUT IT FROM THE ONSET. NO QUESTION. THIS IS A GOOD ARKANSAS FOOTBALL TEAM. WHEN YOU LOOK BACK AT THIS WING I THINK IT WILL FEEL BETTER AND BETTER AS FIRST THINGS FIRST, GOT TO MAKE THE KICK. >> Dave: 41-YARD TRY, LOGAN WARD. AND SAM PITTMAN WILL USE A TIME-OUT TO FREEZE THE KICKER. >> Referee: TIME-OUT, ARKANSAS. >> Dusty: GEE, 41-YARD FIELD GOAL IN COLLEGE FOOTBALL, FAR FROM A GIMME. EXTRA TIME TO THINK ABOUT IT, ICING THE KICKER. AND AS YOU TOUCHED ON TAKING THAT SACK AND WHILE WE SAW MIKE GUNDY NOT PUT IT IN THE AIR TAYLEN GREEN TRYING TO FIND A RECEIVER OPEN AND MOVES THEM OUT OF FIELD GOAL RANGE, THE KICK PULLED TO THE LEFT. NOW OKLAHOMA STATE, LOGAN WARD, WITH A CHANCE TO END THIS GAME. >> Dave: LOGAN WARD 3 FOR 3 LAST WEEK, WAS THE KICKOFF GUY LAST YEAR, REALLY DID NOT TRY FIELD GOALS. HE IS 6 FOR 6 ON THE YEAR, 3 FOR 3 TODAY. MADE 35, 38 AND THIS IS A 41-YARD TRY TO WIN IN OVERTIME. AND HE MISSED IT. WIDE TO THE RIGHT. AND WE GO TO DOUBLE OVERTIME. NEW LIFE FOR TAYLEN GREEN AND THE RAZORBACKS. EACH TEAM WITH A MISSED FIELD GOAL IN OVERTIME AND WE PLAY ON IN STILLWATER. >>> KENTUCKY/SOUTH CAROLINA UNDER WAY ON ESPN NEWS. IT IS SCORELESS. FIVE MINUTES INTO THE CONTEST IN LEXINGTON. WE'LL SEE THAT GAME ON ABC AFTER DOUBLE OVERTIME MAYBE. BACK TO DAVE, DUSTY AND TAYLOR. >> Dave: AND NOW. >> Kevin: THE SECOND OVERTIME IF THERE IS A TOUCHDOWN, YOU HAVE TO GO FOR TWO. NEITHER TEAM WAS IN THAT POSITION IN THE FIRST OVERTIME. MISSED FIELD GOALS FROM BOTH KICKERS AND NOW OKLAHOMA STATE AS THEY FLIP THE FIELD WILL BE ON OFFENSE FIRST FROM THE 25 YARD LINE. FIRES TO THE SIDELINE, UNDERTHROWN, INCOMPLETE. BRENNAN PRESLEY THE INTENDED TARGET, WAY SHORT. DONEIKO SLAUGHTER IN COVERAGE. >> Dusty: PASS WELL UNDERTHROWN AND GOOD MATCHUP BETWEEN SLAUGHTER AND BRENNAN PRESLEY, MATCHED UP IN MAN-TO-MAN COVERAGE, THE BULK OF THIS GAME ESPECIALLY IN THE INTERCEPTION HALF. ALAN BOWMAN JUST NOT NEARLY ENOUGH ON THAT FOOTBALL. THROWING OUTSIDE THE NUMBERS. >> Dave: SECOND AND TEN AND SHIFT PRESLEY INTO THE BACKFIELD. BOWMAN TO THROW. GOING TO FIND PRESLEY ACROSS THE MIDDLE AND NOT MUCH, MAYBE ONE. IT'LL BE THIRD AND NINE AND NOW A FLAG FOR THE HIT LATE BY SOREY. HE DID NOT LET GO OF PRESLEY AFTER THE WHISTLE BLEW AND THAT IS A VERY COSTLY PENALTY ON ARKANSAS. >> Dusty: XAVIAN SOREY HAS TO BE SMARTER THAN THIS. >> Referee: PERSONAL FOUL UNNECESSARY RUFFNESS, NUMBER 10. DEFENSE. HALF THE DISTANCE TO THE GOAL, AUTOMATIC FIRST DOWN. >> Dusty: YOU CAN'T MAKE THAT MISTAKE IN THAT SPOT. IT'S GOING TO BE THIRD AND LONG SITUATION. YOU GIFT THEM 15 YARDS? JUST, THE PLAY IS OVER. GOT TO BE SMARTER AND USE YOUR HEAD. SAM PITTMAN GOT TO BE DISGUSTED WITH SOME OF THE MISTAKES HE'S SEEN FROM HIS FOOTBALL TEAM. >> Dave: SOREY GOES TO THE SIDELINE AND IT'S FIRST AND TEN FOR OKLAHOMA STATE AT THE ARKANSAS 12. OLLIE GORDON, HEISMAN TROPHY CANDIDATE FOR ALL INTENTS AND PURPOSES HAS BEEN A NONFACTOR IN THE GAME, GIVE A LOT OF CREDIT TO ARKANSAS' DEFENSE, 37 RUSHING YARDS ON 16 CARRIES, WE'LL SEE IF HE GETS SOME TOUCHES INSIDE THE 15. PITCH TO GORDON. RUNNING LEFT TO THE 10, GORDON TO THE 5, INTO THE END ZONE, TOUCHDOWN, OKLAHOMA STATE. THERE HE IS, OLLIE GORDON GIVES THE COWBOYS THE LEAD. >> Dusty: PERIMETER BLOCKING SO GOOD IN THIS SPOT. QUINTON STEWART SEALS THAT AND BRENNAN PRESLEY DOING A NICE JOB ON JAYLON BRAXTON WORKING OUTSIDE AND OLLIE GORDON, HAVEN'T HEARD FROM HIM MUCH ALL GAME DAY AND A BIG TOUCHDOWN HERE IN THE SECOND OVERTIME. >> Dave: THEY HAVE TO GO FOR TWO HERE IN THE SECOND OVERTIME. ARKANSAS STILL WILL GET A POSSESSION. PLACE THE BALL AT THE 3 YARD LINE. SIX-POINT LEAD RIGHT NOW FOR THE COWBOYS. BOWMAN TO THE AIR. WITH TIME, THROWS END ZONE, CAUGHT FOR TWO POINTS AND IT'S OLLIE GORDON, 39-31, OKLAHOMA STATE. >> Dusty: BOY, OLLIE GORDON COMING UP CLUTCH HERE IN THE SECOND OVERTIME. WE SEE HIM WORK. BRENNAN PRESLEY UP TOP. HE DRAWS MULTIPLE DEFENDERS, SO MUCH ATTENTION DRAWN TO HIM, GOING TO MOTION BACK, HE'S GOING TO MOVE OUT, NOT ONE, BUT TWO RAZORBACK DEFENDERS STAY WITH HIM. NOBODY ACCOUNTS FOR OLLIE GORDON TO COME OUT OF THE BACKFIELD AND A LATE FIND FOR ALAN BOWMAN TO TAKE THE EIGHT-POINT LEAD. >> Dave: NOW IT'S ARKANSAS' TURN TO GET A TOUCHDOWN AND TWO-POINT CONVERSION TO FORCE A THIRD OVERTIME AND RUN IT TO THE RIGHT AND Ja'QUNDEN JACKSON BACK ON THE FIELD CLOSE TO A FIRST DOWN. HE'S BEEN SHAKEN UP SEVERAL TIMES IN THIS GAME AND YOU SEE HIM HOBBLING A BIT BACK TO THE HUDDLE AFTER A GAIN OF TEN AND A FIRST DOWN. >> Dusty: SHOWING REAL TOUGHNESS COMING BACK IN THE GAME DOING WHATEVER HE CAN TO HELP HIS TEAM WIN THIS GAME. >> Dave: CRAMPS HAVE BEEN THE ISSUE. Ja'QUNDEN JACKSON, THREE TOUCHDOWNS ON THE GROUND THOUGH, FIRST DOWN AT THE 15. JACKSON AGAIN AND NOWHERE TO GO THIS TIME. NICK MARTIN WHO'S BEEN ALL OVER THE FIELD FOR OKLAHOMA STATE, GOT FIVE TACKLES FOR A LOSS. THAT ONE WAS AT THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE. JUST A TERRIFIC PLAYER. PRESEASON ALL AMERICAN THIS YEAR. >> Dusty: PLAYS FAST, RECOGNITION, FIGHTS OVER THE TOP. MAKES A NICE TACKLE. >> Dave: SECOND AND TEN, GREEN WILL THROW, OUT OF THE BACKFIELD, WIDE OPEN WAS RODNEY HILL BUT THE PASS WAS OFF THE MARK. THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN A TOUCHDOWN. IF GREEN GOT IT THERE BUT INSTEAD IT'S THIRD AND TEN. >> Dusty: THEY BROUGHT PRESSURE AND NOBODY FOLLOWS THE BACK ON THE WHEEL ROUTE, JUST WIDE OPEN AND WHEN TAYLEN GREEN WISHES SO BADLY HE COULD HAVE THAT BACK. JUST A WALK-IN TOUCHDOWN PASS TO THE RUNNING BACK THAT NOBODY LOCATED OR IDENTIFIED. >> Dave: TWO MORE CHANCES. TO EITHER GET A FIRST DOWN OR INTO THE END ZONE. THIRD AND TEN ON THE 15. GREEN TO THROW. WITH TIME OVER THE MIDDLE, HILL MADE THE CATCH AND IT'S CLOSE TO A FIRST DOWN. THEY'LL MARK HIM A YARD SHORT. IT'LL BE FOURTH DOWN AND ABOUT A YARD AT THE 6 YARD LINE. AGAIN, NEEDING A TOUCHDOWN AND A TWO-POINT CONVERSION TO SEND IT TO A THIRD O.T. >> Dusty: WE'VE SEEN THROUGHOUT THE COURSE OF THIS GAME THE OFFENSIVE LINE OF ARKANSAS GET PUSHED, GET MOVEMENT. I'D BE SURPRISED. THIS GAME COMES DOWN TO THIS FOURTH DOWN IF WE DON'T SEE SAM PITTMAN AND BOBBY PETRINO LEAN ON THAT OFFENSIVE LINE IN THIS SPOT. >> Dave: BUT NO Ja'QUNDEN JACKSON ON THE FIELD RIGHT NOW AT RUNNING BACK. IT'S RODNEY HILL FOR FOURTH DOWN AND A YARD. THEY'RE GOING TO RUN IT ANYWAY. SECOND EFFORT, NO. OKLAHOMA STATE HOLDS OFF AT THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE, AND THE COWBOYS WIN THE GAME IN DOUBLE OVERTIME. DJ DANIELS WAS IN THERE AMONG OTHERS FOR OKLAHOMA STATE ON THAT FOURTH DOWN STAND, 39-31 THE FINAL SCORE AS THE COWBOYS WIN IT IN DOUBLE O.T. >> Dusty: BIG BOY FOOTBALL. ROLL YOUR SLEEVES UP AND WHO CAN WIN THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE? ARKANSAS HAS BEEN PUSHING OKLAHOMA STATE AROUND AND THE BIGGEST MOMENT OF THIS BALL GAME, KENDAL DANIELS, SEE HIM COME FLYING IN AND CREATE THIS NEGATIVE PLAY. NICE JOB AT THE POINT ALL ACROSS THE FRONT, JUSTIN KIRKLAND IN THERE. NOT ALLOWING ANY MOVEMENT. KENDAL DANIELS FLYING IN WITH A BIG STOP, WOW, WHAT A GAME. WHAT A STOP, WHAT A WIN FOR THE COWBOYS. >> Dave: FINAL SCORE, 39-31, OKLAHOMA STATE WINS IN DOUBLE OVERTIME. FOR DUSTY DVORCHAK, TAYLO
