Texas Tech suffered their second consecutive loss on Saturday when they faced the Oklahoma State Cowboys at home. The team began the game playing at a high level, making great plays against the Oklahoma State offense and playing stout defense. However, a cavalcade of self-inflicted mistakes hurt the Red Raiders as they regressed late and allowed the Cowboys to come from behind for the victory.
Here’s how Texas Tech’s defensive position groups graded out against Oklahoma State:
The defensive line managed some success in being able to pressure Oklahoma State’s quarterbacks early in the first half. However, more often than not defensive ends Pete Robertson and Branden Jackson would find their way past the offensive line only to over pursue the ball carrier.
