Oklahoma State Picks Up Several Big 12 Weekly Honors Following Oregon
STILLWATER – Oklahoma State picked up several Big 12 weekly honors following the 39-31 upset win over No. 6 Oregon. Quarterback Drew Mestemaker was named Co-Offensive Player of the Week, linebacker Ethan Wesloski the Co-Defensive Player of the Week, kicker Sam Keltner the Co-Special Teams Player of the Week and the Pokes had the Offensive and Defensive Lines of the Week.
Mestemaker went 26-of-43 passing for 317 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions in his home debut for the Pokes. He started his game off with a 75-yard run down the left side, finishing with six carries for 109 yards and one touchdown.
He became the first quarterback in a decade to pass for 300 yards and rush for 100 yards against the Ducks.
Wesloski finished with nine tackles and a half sack. He helped lead the Pokes to holding the Ducks to just three yards per carry on 30 carries. That marks just the seventh time the Ducks under Dan Lanning were held to that average.
Keltner drilled a career-high four field goals and converted on three extra points.
The Big 12 put together two great graphs on the Pokes’ offensive and defensive lines.
“The Oklahoma State offensive line paved the way for a pair of 100-yard rushers, averaging six yards a carry, in the victory over then-No. 6 Oregon as part of a performance of 554 total yards of offense without allowing a sack. It was just the second time in FBS history that a team has had a 300-yard passer and multiple 100-yard rushers in a game against an AP top-10 team.
Dominating in the trenches on both sides of the ball, Oklahoma State's front four tallied four sacks, five quarterback hurries and held Oregon's Dante Moore to a QBR of 22.4, which was the lowest in a start during his Oregon career. The unit also held Oregon to 3.0 yards per carry on 30 carries.”
