Since beating TCU to open Big 12 play, Oklahoma State has lost four straight, falling behind big early in all four games.
At Baylor, the Cowboys trailed by 18 in the first half.
At West Virginia, it was a 13-point hole.
Against Oklahoma, in Gallagher-Iba Arena, OSU found itself down by 16 in the opening 20 minutes.
And Saturday at Texas, the Cowboys went to halftime down 15.
In three of those games — Baylor, Oklahoma and Texas — the Cowboys rallied to make it a game before eventually fading again late.
The OSU players recognize the problem.
