After a bye week, Texas returns to action with a trip to Stillwater, Oklahoma on Saturday to play Oklahoma State. The Cyclones will be coming off a last-second 45-42 loss to No. 13 Baylor. The college football odds for the game have the Cowboys favored to pick up the win at home.
“I look at myself first”, he said. The Longhorns fell to 2-2 and 0-1.
The second half opened just as hot as the first as both teams held their own on defense.
Oklahoma State leads Texas, 43-31 with two minutes remaining in the third quarter. He was taken to the locker room with concussion symptoms after three catches for 91 yards and a touchdown. Even with Malik Jefferson, the Longhorns couldn’t generate much pressure on Rudolph, and they allowed two touchdown passes of over 50 yards.
Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy said Hill’s talent and approach to the game have earned him another chance, starting with Saturday’s game against No. 22 Texas.
“Last week, we felt like we kind of gave it to Baylor”, McCleskey said. “We tackled too high a couple of times, they didn’t come back on a pipe route once and I had a bust from a safety on that”. We had no turnovers. “He throws the ball like a baseball player”.
The OSU players used the eight-game losing streak as motivation. It didn’t matter, as the Cowboys rolled up 555 yards.
The Texas loss at California left coach Charlie Strong promising to get more involved in the defense, but he’s resisted pressure to fire defensive coordinator Vance Bedford. “That’s just what happens when you face those two quarterbacks”. “There’s a guy that’s 300 pounds, how could we lose him?”
The game’s wildness wasn’t limited to offense.
It’s really kind of embarrassing that this needs to be addressed, but.the Longhorns had three extra points blocked? In 2012, Texas running back Joe Bergeron appeared to fumble the ball on the winning score though it wasn’t called.
Texas: RB D’Onta Foreman. The Cowboy’s rifleman Mason Rudolph, couldn’t muster up a touchdown against the Baylor Bears, but that should change on Saturday.
And the two teams were just getting started.
PERKINS SUSPENDED: Senior offensive guard Kent Perkins has been suspended following his arrest last week for allegedly driving while intoxicated.
Similar to what OSU displayed last season, the Longhorns split time between two quarterbacks; Tyrone Swoopes and Shane Buechele. Warren’s final carry came at the 5:05 mark of the second quarter.
Oklahoma State receiver James Washington was knocked out of the game in the third quarter after taking a hit to the head from Texas linebacker Malcolm Roach.
