Big 12 supervisor of football officials Walt Anderson said there "a few mistakes" made in the Texas-Oklahoma State game on Saturday, but overall he was "pleased" with the officiating.

Texas was called for 16 penalties, including three key flags on Oklahoma State's game-tying drive within the final two minutes of the game. The Cowboys tied it and then won the game, 30-27, after a muffed punt snap gave the ball back to Oklahoma State in field-goal range.

Strong drew a 15-yard unsportsmanlike conduct penalty after the second of consecutive flags, one for pass interference and then defensive holding on a run play, of which Strong later said he had never heard of defensive holding on a run play.
