Hibernian forward James Keatings says the Edinburgh side will use play-off heartbreak as motivation when they face Rangers in the Scottish Cup final this Saturday. Hibs were hoping for a double celebration to end the season but their hopes of reaching the Premiership were ended last Friday when they conceded a last-minute goal at Falkirk to lose 5-4 on aggregate.And Keatings, who netted both the Hibs goals in the 3-2 second leg defeat, says the side are desperate not to endure further disappointment this weekend. He told Sky Sports: The manager put me on for the start [on Friday] and I knew I had to go and perform to keep my place.I scored two goals, which was good for me, obviously, and I was happy that way, but it was really disappointing that we didnt get the win.We spoke over the weekend and we just want to use the disappointment from Friday, take that into Saturday, and use that as motivation.We dont want to feel that way again, we want to win the Cup.As a young boy, these are the games you dream of playing in. You want medals in your career, you want to go out and lift the Cup. It would mean the world. Also See: Hibs fixtures Hibs stats Scottish Champ table USA Soccer Jerseys China .

The 17-point comeback tied for the second largest in OSU history.We can score fast, Gundy said. If we were in a conventional offense, we would have been in trouble.

But I didnt feel very good either.Rudolph passed for 351 yards and four touchdowns for Oklahoma State (4-2, 2-1 Big 12). Though the Cowboys gained 459 total yards, Gundy was disappointed in the teams offensive production. The Cowboys were held to 108 yards rushing, and most of that was gained in the final 20 minutes.We got a little bit impatient in the first half, Gundy said. Sometimes that happens. Even right now, I dont feel very good about the way we performed on offense.

Oklahoma States Ben Grogan made a 30-yard field goal to tie the score at 31 with 11:33 to play.THE TAKEAWAYIOWA STATE: The Cyclones proved once again that they are competitive, but arent quite there yet. They got solid quarterback play at times from Lanning and Jacob Park, but neither was consistent, and they were sacked a combined seven times.We have the capability and skill set, its more of a process of learning how to execute and learning how to win, Iowa State cornerback Brian Peavy said.OKLAHOMA STATE: The Cowboys built on their victory over Texas the previous week and enter their off week with momentum.Its good to see your guys keep fighting, Rudolph said. I dont know how many points we were down, but this place was kind of dead. The defense played a great game in the second half and got us some stops and turnovers that were much needed. We didnt turn the ball over, which was big for us. We just kept fighting.POLL IMPLICATIONSOklahoma State was 32nd in votes in the most recent poll and likely will be knocking on the door of the Top 25.UP NEXTIOWA STATE: The Cyclones play at Texas next Saturday.
