Ames, Iowa • Landry Jones threw for 405 yards and a season-high four touchdowns and No. 14 Oklahoma beat Iowa State 35-20 on Saturday to move coach Bob Stoops into a second-place tie with Bud Wilkinson on the Sooners' career win list.

Stoops posted his 145th victory with Oklahoma. He is 12 wins shy of tying Barry Switzer for the most in school history.

Brennan Clay ran for a career-best 157 yards to help the Sooners bounce back from a loss to Notre Dame. Oklahoma (6-2, 4-1 Big 12) has won 20 straight following a defeat in the regular season.

Jones' 20-yard TD pass to Jalen Saunders to open the second half put the Sooners up 21-6. Oklahoma racked up 593 yards on offense and put it away when Jones' 31-yard TD pass to Kenny Stills made it 35-13 with 10 minutes, 59 seconds left. —
