It remains to be seen if the Texas Longhorns can take that final step towards being elite. Saturday’s loss may have been a step back for this season, but not all is lost. Texas remains in control of their Big 12 championship destiny and will likely get another opportunity at Oklahoma if they can make it there.
In what was a very winnable game for the Longhorns, Oklahoma outplayed Texas in all three phases of the game en route to their 34-27 victory. Another rough first half start forced the Longhorns to chase points all game.
