CINCINNATI -- Brendan Sorsby passed for 214 yards and two touchdowns, Evan Pryor ran for 111 yards and two TDs and Cincinnati used a 17-point first quarter to beat No. 14 Iowa State 38-30 on Saturday. The Bearcats (4-1, 2-0 Big 12) beat a ranked opponent at home for the first time since beating No. 16 Houston 35-20 on Dec. 4, 2021.

Oklahoma State knew this day was coming. Coach Mike Gundy had barely escaped 2024 with his job, after a winless Big 12 campaign that crashed out with a 52-0 loss at Colorado. Gundy replaced his entire coaching staff and entered this season with a tenuous quarterback situation, which became more dire after starter Hauss Hejny broke his foot in the opener. Normally, situations like Oklahoma State's don't end well, even for a coach as synonymous with the program as Gundy.

We believe we have one of the best officiating programs in college football,

A good team that played like a good team will earn a strong grade, and a good team that played like a bad team will not.

Yormark has led significant changes in the Big 12, including a new television deal and expansion, reinforcing his vision for a modernized conference.
