Weekend of wins for Big 12, but Cyclones were blasted
ISU coach humbled by loss to Wyoming
The Associated Press
North Division
On a day when all but two Big 12 teams were in action, comments by the coaches made it plain who the only loser was.
Colorado (1-0 overall, 0-0 Big 12)
No. 8 Colorado got a halftime tongue-lashing not from a coach but a player and beat No. 25 Colorado State 31-21.
After wide receiver Phil Savoy's halftime pep talk, Colorado went out and took charge of Colorado State in the third period.
"Phil came in here and fired us up," said safety Rashidi Barnes, who had one of two momentum-turning interceptions in the decisive third period.
"I didn't say too much — just that we needed to step it up." Savoy said. "I was mostly upset with myself, and maybe other players were upset, too."
Iowa State (0-2, 0-1)
The Cyclones lost four fumbles and two interceptions in their 56-10 loss to the Wyoming Cowboys.
"It's embarrassing for the players, the coaches and for the whole football team," said Iowa State coach Dan McCarney. "Every phase was bad."
But McCarney was not blaming his players, who in two games this year have been beaten by one team named the Cowboys (Oklahoma State) and routed by another.
"I'm the head coach," he said.
"When you play as poorly as we did, execute as poorly as we did and have as many give-aways as we did today, it starts at the top."
At Laramie, quarterback Jay Stoner passed for 127 yards and turned four Iowa State turnovers into touchdowns in Wyoming's home opener.
Kansas State (1-0, 0-0)
No. 20 Kansas State got an eyepopping debut from quarterback Michael Bishop, who threw four touchdown passes and ran for a fifth in a 47-7 rout of Northern Illinois.
Just a few days after Bishop was named Kansas State's starter, the junior college transfer rushed for 98 yards and passed for 172 as the
Wildcats jumped to a 42-7 halftime lead.
"I'm a newcomer to the team, and I felt like I had to make something happen to get my teammates to have confidence in me and my ability," Bishop said.
Missouri (1-0, 0-0)
Missouri scored on all five of its second-half possessions and beat Eastern Michigan 44-24.
Devin West and Brock Olivo each scored two touchdowns as Missouri avoided a season-opening loss for the first time in three years.
"That opening game, I don't care who it is or where you're playing," said coach Larry Smith. "Getting it in your pocket is a big, big step."
No. 6 Nebraska (1-0, 0-0) was idle.
South Division
Texas (1-0, 0-0)
The No. 11 Texas Longhorns needed an early boost in their season opener. They got it from Ricky Williams and Phil Dawson. Now they need some help from the medics.
Williams, who also plays running back, rushed for 155 yards in 19 carries and scored three touchdowns as tailback. Dawson became Texas' all-time leading scorer with field goals of 52 and 54 yards in a 48-14 win against Rutgers Saturday.
But Longhorns quarterback James Brown was sidelined in the second quarter with a sprained left ankle. His status for Saturday's game against UCLA is uncertain.
Baylor (1-1,0-0)
The Baylor Bears defeated Fresno State 37-35.
Jerod Douglas led Baylor with 141 yards rushing and two touchdowns, and the Bears held off Fresno State in a battle of running backs. Fresno's Michael Pittman rushed for 204 yards and scored two touchdowns.
"Their tailback was mighty good. Of course, our tailback was mighty good too," said Baylor coach Dave Roberts.
Oklahoma (1-1,0-0)
De'Mond Parker rushed 31 times for 239 yards and helped Oklahoma defeat Syracuse 36-34 and end an eight-game home losing streak.
Oklahoma's Corey L. Ivy blocked a 44-yard field goal try by Orangeman Nathan Trout on the game's final play, setting off a celebration by fans and players on the field.

"It showed the character in our fans," Blake said of the home-opening crowd of 68,342. "They believed in us. We are doing something special with this football team, and I'm proud of them."
Texas A&M (1-0, 0-0)
The Aggies led Sam Houston by only 7-6 early in the second quarter and 17-6 at halftime, causing thoughts of A&M's surprise loss to Southwestern Louisiana last season. But Texas A&M prevailed for a 59-victory.
But Sirr Parker and Dante Hall quickly erased thoughts of an upset bid. Hall scored twice and rushed for 169 yards, and Parker had three touchdowns as the Aggies ran their record to 9-1 in openers under R.C. Slocum.
Oklahoma State (2-0, 1-0)
Jamaal Fobbs rushed for 217 yards, scored one touchdown and set up another as Oklahoma State rolled to its second straight victory, a 31-7 defeat of Southwestern Louisiana.
Fobbs, who broke the school freshman record of 206 yards set by Thurman Thomas, ran seven yards for a touchdown early in the second quarter that gave the Cowboys a 10-1 lead. They had a 23-0 lead at the half.
Texas Tech (0-1, 0-0) was idle.
