It got ugly for the Cowboys in Lubbock early, and then it got even uglier late.
Oklahoma State appeared intent on falling behind on the road, did everything within its power to fall behind on the road. As it would turn out, that’s not a good strategy.
Spencer Sanders singlehandedly lost the turnover battle 5-0, losing a fumble on the Cowboys’ opening drive and then throwing two second quarter interceptions. Then late in the third, after a big run by LD Brown had the Cowboys in the red zone with a chance to make a one-score game, Sanders was sacked for a loss of 11 and lost the ball for his fourth turnover.
