Ninth – and just the way you predicted by beating Texas, Boise State, and West Virginia.
Because of tiebreakers, the Cowboys finish ninth in the Big 12. The Big 12 filled all of its bowl slots. OSU bound for Houston, Memphis, Phoenix or right back here to Fort Worth for bowl season.
When the Pokes had the opportunity to shore up the inconsistencies and finish off a floundering Frog team on its last set of legs at quarterback, they turned in another lukewarm performance. It was all downhill after the terrific helmets.
The Cowboys finally got things going with a 10-play, 69-yard touchdown drive that more than doubled their yardage total, then put together two more touchdown drives after that.
