Mestemaker’s record streak and K-State performance fuel NFL attention

Mestemaker set an OSU record with eight straight 300-yard passing games and scored six total touchdowns against Kansas State; postgame coverage also highlighted his all-around performance and a trick play. He earned his third Davey O’Brien Great 8 selection; a report says Mike Gundy praised his film and 17 of 25 NFL scouts and executives polled ranked him as their top 2027 quarterback. A possible No. 1 overall selection remains speculation.
