The Cowboys were brought back to earth a little bit after a good stretch of form.
Oklahoma State fell to Texas 56-51 on Saturday in Austin. The Cowboys’ offensive struggles returned after the Pokes were able to put a band-aid over the gunshot wound against TCU on Wednesday, but not even an outstanding defensive performance could mask the Cowboys’ offensive misery in Austin. Here are five thoughts from the game.
1. Offense Bad
Cowboys not named Bryce Thompson (who we’ll get to) were just 4-for-16 on second-half field-goal attempts Saturday.
It’s been a season full of questionable offense (to put it kindly) for the Cowboys, but Saturday’s game tied a season low in scoring output for the Pokes, joining the OSU’s 60-51 loss to Wichita State on Dec.
