Oklahoma State makes History

Chuba Hubbard from Oklahoma State made history on Saturday afternoon, the kind TCU wants to forget.

In Oklahoma State’s 34-27 victory over TCU at Boone Pickens Stadium, Hubbard became the first opponent to run back to the 200-yard mark against a Gary Patterson defense.

It marked his fourth 200-yard game this season for Hubbard, and his most impressive consideration of TCU had Saturday’s top-ranked rushing defense of the Big 12.

Hubbard’s first hit with the 92-yard TD run was ran with the game tied at 17 in the third quarter.

The 92-yard run also served as a landmark for any opponent in program history as the longest running play given up in the Patterson period and the fourth-longest. Chris Gilbert from Texas holds the record with a 96-yard TD run in 1967, followed in 1993 by a 95-yard run by Greg Hill from Texas A&M and in 1957 by Rice’s King Hill.

Nevertheless, Hubbard was not finished. In the fourth quarter, he added a 62-yard TD run to put Oklahoma State up 31-17 with 9:48 remaining. Which came on the heels of Max Duggan’s third interception by TCU’s true freshman quarterback.

It marked his fourth 200-yard game this season for Hubbard, and his most impressive consideration of TCU had Saturday’s top-ranked rushing defense of the Big 12.

In the end Oklahoma State was able to secure the win, even without star wide receiver Tylan Wallace.
