• Oklahoma State appeared to be undaunted by any potential distraction in a 49-31 home win against then-No. 25 Texas, bouncing back from a double-digit loss to Baylor the previous week. Despite the Cyclones’ 1-4 start, the Cowboys are unlikely to look past Iowa State after it led the 11th-ranked Bears by 14 points going into the fourth quarter last weekend. However, the Cyclones managed only eight yards on six plays in the final stanza during which they were outscored 17-0 in a 45-42 setback.

• After totaling 58 yards on 19 carries through two games, sophomore running back and Oklahoma native Mike Warren is averaging 109.3 yards on 72 attempts over the last three contests and coming off a 30-carry, 130-yard, two-touchdown performance against Baylor.

• Justice Hill ran for over 100 yards for the second consecutive game versus Texas and can become the first freshman in school history to do so in three straight with another such performance Saturday. Mason Rudolph, who ranks seventh in FBS with 1,688 yards passing, threw for over 300 yards in the first half for the second time in three games – matching the number of times in school history that feat had been accomplished entering the season.

• The Cowboys lead the Big 12 in forced turnovers (10) and rank 12th in the country in red-zone defense, allowing opponents to score a conference-low 66.7 percent of the time they march inside the 20.

• Iowa State has scored at least 40 points in back-to-back games for the first time since 2005.
