Four teams were off last week, which put a larger spotlight on the conference’s game of the week — the Red River Showdown. As expected, the game between Texas Longhorns and Oklahoma Sooners came down to the wire and even needed to be settled in four overtimes. While the game had a thrilling conclusion, its outcome — for this particular site, at least — was not desirable.
The stinging loss to Oklahoma bumps Texas to 2-2 on the year, out of the AP Poll, and most likely out of any kind of College Football Playoff picture.
