The Cowpokes fell in the final minutes of the game to the visiting Aereoplane as senior Lumpkin threw 3 ghastly interceptions, one to MLB Derek Balaban in the middle zone, setting Pine Bluff up for the go-ahead field goal, another to safety Jason Nolen who returned the pick down the sideline for a touchdown, and a third over the top to corner Gene Enloe who had position on his receiver.

But before that last minute meltdown it looked to be Oklahoma State's ballgame. The Cowboys controlled the tempo most of the way.
