COLLEGE STATION - Zac Robinson threw two touchdown passes and No. 15 Oklahoma State overcame the absence of their top two playmakers to beat Texas A&M 36-31 on Saturday.

The Cowboys (4-1, 1-0 Big 12) played without All-America receiver Dez Bryant, who was ruled ineligible by the school this week for lying to the NCAA about contact he made with a former NFL player. Oklahoma State was also missing Kendall Hunter, the Big 12's leading rusher in 2008, who sat out with an ankle injury.

Robinson completed 14 of 25 passes for 279 yards, Keith Toston ran for 130 yards and Beau Johnson ran for two scores as the Cowboys won at Kyle Field for only the second time since 1983.

Jerrod Johnson threw three touchdown passes for the Aggies (3-2, 0-1) and set a Big 12 record by extending his streak of consecutive passes without an interception to 228. But Johnson faced constant pressure and the Aggies, who came in with the nation's second-ranked offense, were held to 382 yards.

Leading 29-25 early in the fourth quarter, the Cowboys put it away with a 16-play, 93-yard touchdown drive that chewed up almost eight minutes.

    Hey Matt,

    You want my vote then you better put on some burnt orange. \m/

    Thanks for the post though, I forgot the Aggies had a football team.
