STILLWATER, Oklahoma (Ticker) -- In an up-and-down season,Texas began November with a stirring come-from-behind victory.

Ryan Bailey kicked a 40-yard field goal on the game's final playSaturday as the 14th-ranked Longhorns rallied from a 21-pointdeficit in the fourth quarter to stun Oklahoma State, 38-35, ina Big 12 Conference contest.


Texas (8-2, 4-2 Big 12 South) rallied from a 35-14 deficit topost its fourth straight victory.


"We've won a lot, and that is a positive thing," Longhorns coachMack Brown said. "The mind is a powerful, powerful thing,especially in sports. At first, we did not put pressure on (theCowboys), and we had to to get it turned, because we didbelieve we were going to win.


"When we put pressure back on them, I think that question arisesagain, 'Uh oh. Here we go again. We've been there.' ... Idon't understand it. I don't know how it works that way, butsometimes it does."


Oklahoma State (5-4, 3-2 South) had a chance to take the lead onthe previous possession, but Jason Ricks missed a 32-yard fieldgoal wide left.


Texas quarterback Colt McCoy overcame three interceptions tocomplete 20-of-27 passes for 283 yards and a touchdown. Thesophomore signal-caller accounted for more than 400 yards oftotal offense as he also rushed for 127 yards on 16 attempts.

Big comebacks against Oklahoma State are nothing new for theLonghorns, who have rallied from deficits against the Cowboys infour of last five years.


The most memorable comeback came in 2004, when Texas beat<div class="pre">Oklahoma State 56-35 after trailing 35-7 in the first half.</div>

"It's just within us," McCoy said. "I wish we could play likethat in the beginning, I promise. I hate that it has to comedown like that, but it just shows the toughness and shows thefight and shows the character of our team."


McCoy's first interception was returned 39 yards by Jacob Laceyand gave the Cowboys a 14-0 less than three minutes into thecontest. It came just 15 seconds after Dantrell Savage gotOklahoma State on the board with afour-yard TD run.

But on the final drive, McCoy tossed a 31-yard completion totight end Jermichael Finley to give Texas a first down at theCowboys' 40-yard line.


Three plays later, McCoy scrambled for 14 yards on 3rd-and-11 toset up Bailey's field goal attempt, which he slid inside theright upright as time expired.


Zac Robinson completed 30-of-42 passes for a school-record 430yards and two touchdowns for Oklahoma State, including a 28-yardstrike to Adarius Bowman that made it 35-14 with 8:40 left inthe third quarter.


Robinson also scored on a seven-yard run that staked OklahomaState to a 21-0 lead 36 seconds into the second quarter.

The sophomore quarterback hooked up with Brandon Pettigrew on aone-yard TD toss on the final play of the first half to giveOklahoma State a 28-14 halftime lead


Robinson's TD strike to Bowman pushed the Cowboys' cushion to aseemingly comfortable three touchdowns.


"We thought we were a better team coming in, and we still feelthat way," Robinson said. "You've got to give Texas credit,though. They made plays there at the end."


The Longhorns charged back dramatically in the fourth quarter,pulling within 35-28 on TD runs of 18 and 75 yards by JamaalCharles, who finished 180 yards and three scores on 16 carries.

"We had a had a good game plan in all areas and executed themthe majority of the game," said Oklahoma State coach MikeGunday, whose team lost despite gaining 594 yards. "But what itreally comes down to is when you're in the fourth quarter with abig lead, you can't give up big plays."


After forcing a punt, Texas marched 91 yards in just six playsfor the tying score on Vondrell McGee's one-yard TD run with3:22 remaining.


The big play in tghe drive was McCoy's 60-yard completion toJordan Shipley that gave the Longhorns a 1st-and-goal at the 1.
