PROVO — Alan Bowman didn’t get a chance to watch No. 1 Oklahoma State’s visit Friday night. 13 BYU to start.

However, the former Texas Tech and Michigan transfer had a chance to finish it.

Bowman capped a 17-play drive lasting 8 minutes, 22 seconds to give the Cowboys a 35-31 lead with just over a minute in front of the announced crowd of 62,481 fans at LaVell Edwards Stadium.

His only problem?

He left too much time on the clock.

Jake Retzlaff connected with Darius Lassiter for a 35-yard touchdown with 10 seconds left, and the Cougars emerged with a 38-35 victory over Oklahoma State, keeping their undefeated start to the 2024 season alive.

A Hail Mary from BYU’s first Jewish starting quarterback? More like Shalom Lakh Miryam.

LJ Martin rushed for a career-high 120 yards and two touchdowns for BYU (7-0, 4-0 Big 12), and Retzlaff added 81 yards and a touchdown on nine carries while also throwing for 218 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions.

Lassiter caught six passes for 129 yards and a touchdown – but none were bigger than his final catch of the night in front of the Roar of Cougars student section.

Bowman, who replaced first-time starter Garret Rangel due to injury, completed 11 of 19 passes for 85 yards, one touchdown and one interception – and also caught a touchdown pass in the second half.

Ollie Gordon II, the reigning Doak Walker Award winner, ran for 107 yards and two touchdowns and also caught two passes for 22 yards and a score for the Cowboys (3-4, 0-4 Big 12).
