Oklahoma State @ Missouri

Oklahoma State knocked off Missouri 24-10 at the University of Missouri in Columbia on February 4, 2024. The Cowboys outscored the Tigers across the lineup to secure the 14-point dual meet victory in Big 12 action.

The most notable result on the day came at 197 pounds, where Rocky Elam of Missouri turned in an 8-0 major decision over Kyle Haas of Oklahoma State. That major delivered four team points and was Missouri's only listed bonus-point victory, a significant swing in an otherwise one-sided scoring ledger.

Despite Elam’s big win, Oklahoma State accumulated the bulk of the team score through a string of match victories that pushed the final margin to 24-10. Elam’s major kept the Tigers closer on the scoreboard than they would have been without it, but Missouri could not translate that momentum into enough additional bonus points or key individual wins to change the outcome.

For Missouri, Rocky Elam was a clear bright spot with a dominant performance at 197 pounds. Oklahoma State’s depth and consistency across the remaining weights decided the dual, leaving the Cowboys with the road win in Columbia and Missouri with a tangible area to build from as the conference schedule continues.
