10 Thoughts on Oklahoma State’s 49-21 Loss to Texas in the Big 12 Title Game

ARLINGTON, Texas — Cinderella’s foot was too dang big.

Oklahoma State’s storybook run to the Big 12 title game ended with an unbefitting 49-21 loss to Texas on Saturday in AT&T Stadium. Here are 10 thoughts from the game.

1. A Woeful Defensive Performance

Texas is no doubt a good (perhaps great) football team. The Longhorns didn’t come into Saturday averaging 35 points and 460 yards of offense a game by accident.

But boy, that was a bad outing for the OSU D.

Texas had:

49 points
662 yards of total offense (season-high)
464 yards passing (season-high)
33 first downs (tied a season-high)
40:06 time of possession (season-high)
