STILLWATER, Okla. (AP) - Kliff Kingsbury threw for 440 yards and four touchdowns as Texas Tech beat Oklahoma State 49-30 Saturday.
Texas Tech (6-3, 4-3 Big 12) won its third straight and Kingsbury moved into second place on the school's career touchdown pass list with 44. Kingsbury, who topped 400 yards for the fourth time in his career, is four behind TD passes behind leader Robert Hall.
Ricky Williams rushed for 75 yards and two touchdowns and set a Texas Tech record for career rushing attempts.
Oklahoma State (2-7, 0-6 Big 12) lost its fifth in a row and closed out its home season without a conference win in Stillwater.
Aso Pogi had 245 yards passing and three touchdowns for the Cowboys, and Tatum Bell rushed for 83 yards and a score. But Oklahoma State's pass defense couldn't withstand Kingsbury and his troupe of receivers.
Mickey Peters had 100 yards receiving, and Carlos Francis had 82 and a touchdown for the Red Raiders. Rashaun Woods caught three touchdown passes and had 109 receiving yards for Oklahoma State.
Texas Tech led 21-10 at the half. Kingsbury hit Nehemiah Glover for a 42-yard touchdown pass to open scoring after the break and connected with Francis on a 2-yard touchdown pass at 4:28 in the third quarter.
Pogi lobbed a 23 yard pass to Woods in the corner of the end zone to bring Oklahoma State to 35-17 with 12 seconds left in the third quarter.
Williams scored from the 1 at 12:51 left. But a 92-yard Chris Massey kickoff return set up Pogi's second scoring pass to Woods with 12:23 remaining.
Pogi found Woods again on an 18 yard touchdown pass with 5:57 left, but a 2-point try failed.
Anthony Terrell picked off a pass from Josh Fields and returned it 45 yards to end scoring with 2:57 left.
Kingsbury had 201 yards for two touchdowns in the first half, hitting Anton Paige and Foy Munlin for scores.
