Oregon’s winning streak ended on Saturday as Oklahoma State achieved a significant victory with a 39-31 win. This upset marked a pivotal moment for Oklahoma State, breaking their 21-game losing streak against FBS teams and providing first-year coach Eric Morris with his inaugural win at the helm.
For Oregon, the loss concluded their 41-game winning streak against unranked opponents. The victory prompted extensive celebration in Stillwater, particularly after Oklahoma State’s challenging previous season, which ended with a 1-11 record and started this year with a loss to Tulsa.
Quarterback Drew Mestemaker was instrumental in Oklahoma State’s success. He threw for 317 yards and two touchdowns while adding 109 yards and a rushing touchdown. This performance was a strong rebound after a less impressive start to the season.
The Ducks, ranked second in the preseason, faced a setback in their national title aspirations. Their vulnerability became apparent after narrowly avoiding defeat in a home game against Boise State.
Mestemaker, a familiar player to Coach Morris from their time at North Texas, played a crucial role. His 10-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter secured the lead for Oklahoma State. Meanwhile, running back Caleb Hawkins contributed significantly in the first half.
Next, Oregon will face Portland State at home on Friday night. Oklahoma State will host Murray State on Saturday.
