STILLWATER – Oklahoma State cornerback LaDainian Fields is a Big 12 Defensive Player of the Week following his two-interception day at Kansas State, announced Monday by the Big 12.
It is the second weekly honor this season for Fields, who was also honored for his other two-interception game against Colorado. It is the 14th Big 12 weekly honor for Oklahoma State in 2026.
The pair of picks for Fields at Kansas State increased his FBS-leading season total to seven, which are two more than any other FBS player. In addition to leading the nation, his seven interceptions are the most through nine games for any FBS player since Cal's Nohl Williams had seven in 2024 and are the most through nine games for any Big 12 player since Texas Tech's Douglas Coleman had 8 in 2019. The total already ties for the fourth-most in a season in OSU history.
Fields returned his first interception in Manhattan 27 yards to the KSU 17 and returned his second 10 yards to the KSU 29. They both set up Cowboy touchdown drives. He added three total tackles, all of which were solo stops, and a quarterback hurry.
He has six interceptions in the past four games alone, with two at Kansas State, one at Iowa State, two against Colorado and one at Houston.
Fields also joins Clemson's Elliot Washington II as the only FBS players to record two games with two interceptions this season.
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.
Tickets are available at www.okstate.com/tickets or by contacting the ticket office at 877-ALL-4-OSU. Fans can still secure their tickets to sold out games through SeatGeek, the official secondary partner of OSU Athletics.
