DALLAS (FWAA) – With their 36-27 win over No. 3 Oklahoma, the Missouri Tigers (7-0) are the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl National Team of the Week for games of the weekend of Oct. 23.

Trailing 21-20 early in the fourth quarter, Blaine Gabbert hit Jarrell Jackson for a 38-yard touchdown pass that sparked 16 straight points and rallied the Tigers. Gabbert finished the night completing 30-of-42 passes for 308 yards, while Jackson caught nine passes for 139 yards. The Mizzou defense forced three Oklahoma turnovers.

The win snapped a 7-game losing streak vs. Oklahoma and was just Missouri's second over the Sooners in their last 21 meetings. Missouri is 7-0 for the first time since 1960 when it finished 11-0 after beating Navy in the Orange Bowl.

"It's huge, it's gigantic," said Missouri head coach Gary Pinkel, who had been 0-6 against the Sooners. "It's a long time coming. I'm just real proud of our team."

Other Tostitos Fiesta Bowl National Team of the Week nominees for the weekend of Oct. 23 included:

• Iowa State (4-4): The Cyclones stunned No. 22 Texas, 28-21, in Austin to record their first road win over a ranked opponent since 1990. Iowa State forced four turnovers and Alexander Robinson ran for 120 yards and two touchdowns in the win.

• Western Kentucky (1-6): Sparked by two defensive touchdowns, the Hilltoppers ended a 26-game losing streak with a 54-21 win over Louisiana-Lafayette.
