Sooners stuff Cyclones 26-6 in blustery Norman
Wind gusts of up to 40 mph didn’t help offenses much, but No. 9 Oklahoma managed to get enough points to fend of a less productive Iowa State offense.
The Sooners’ 26-6 win over the Cyclones sets up a Bedlam showdown for the Big 12 championship next week in Stillwater.
Landry Jones threw for 256 yards, Blake Bell punched in two short touchdown runs and the Sooners limited Iowa State to a season-low 245 yards in a 26-6 victory on Saturday.
Rebounding after allowing a school-record 616 yards allowed last week in a 45-38 loss at Baylor, Oklahoma only let the Cyclones (6-5, 3-5 Big 12) score after James Winchester’s snap sailed over the head of punter Tress Way in the first quarter.
Oklahoma will visit Oklahoma State (No. 4 BCS, No. 5 AP) — with the nation’s second-highest scoring offense — next week with the winner earning the Big 12 title.
