It took two overtime periods, several head-scratching special teams plays and a complete teardown of the substitution rules, but we’re down to one unbeaten team in the Big 12.
No. 8 Oklahoma State fell to No. 13 TCU 43-40 in double-overtime in Fort Worth on Saturday. The Cowboys (5-1, 2-1 in Big 12) led from the opening drive until two minutes left in regulation. But OSU’s offense went cool and its defense couldn’t keep the Horned Frogs (6-0, 3-0) at bay forever.
In the early going, Spencer Sanders was operating the Cowboys’ offense at cheat code level.
