STILLWATER – Oklahoma State cornerback LaDainian Fields and kicker Sam Keltner added to their list of accolades Tuesday for their performance against Colorado, as Fields was named the Paycom Jim Thorpe Award National Defensive Back of the Week and Kelter was named a Lou Groza Collegiate Place-Kicker Award Star of the Week.
They each received Big 12 Player of the Week recognition Monday.
Keltner, who was also honored as a Star of the Week after the Oregon and West Virginia wins, matched a school record against Colorado with five field goals made, going five-for-five on field goal attempts. That total also matched the most for any FBS player in a game this season, and two of the five were from longer than 40 yards with a long of 47 yards.
His five made field goals also extended his streak of makes to 18, matching Matt Ammendola's school record that spanned the 2017 and 2018 seasons. Keltner's streak has broken the previous OSU single-season record of 17 that was set by Dan Bailey in 2010.
Also 28-for-28 on PAT attempts, Keltner ranks No. 1 in the nation in field goals made, field goal percentage and total points scored by a kicker. He is 18-for-18 this season, which is five more made field goals than any other kicker without a miss.
Fields had two interceptions in OSU's win to increase his season total to four. He was the only Big 12 player and one of just two Power 4 players to record two interceptions this week, and he became the first Cowboy with two interceptions in a game since Trey Rucker against No. 12 Utah in 2024. Fields returned the interceptions for a combined 39 yards, including a long return of 36 yards. They both set up Cowboy scoring drives, including one that started at the CU 9-yard line.
A cornerback, Fields recorded 1.5 tackles for loss and tied for the team lead with eight tackles, with seven of those tackles holding CU to a gain of five or fewer yards. He also added a pass breakup, with all three of his passes defended occurring in the second half to play a big role in OSU engineering a second-half shutout. For his efforts, Fields was given a game ball by head coach Eric Morris in the locker room after the game.
Season tickets are sold out to Oklahoma State football games this year, but there are still opportunities to get tickets to see the Cowboys in Stillwater. A small number of single-game tickets remain for the November 28 game against Kansas, but the November 15 game against Texas Tech is sold out.
