Kansas State traveled to Stillwater, Oklahoma to take on the 25th-ranked Cowboys on October 3, 2015. Late in the second quarter, an officiating error gave Oklahoma State a first down when the offense was four yards short of the line to gain after the third down play. The series ended with a touchdown for Oklahoma State.[4]
The error brought into question Big 12 Conference officiating, especially in light that the game was on the 25th anniversary of the
Fifth Down Game between the
Colorado Buffaloes and
Missouri Tigers.[5]SB Nation published "K-State lost to Oklahoma State, 36-34. Inept Big 12 officials gifted Oklahoma State a touchdown."[6] The Big 12 Conference later acknowledged the error[7] and that disciplinary actions will be addressed with both the field officials and chain crew.[8]
Oklahoma State won the game on a last-minute field goal.[9]
