AUSTIN, Texas — Tom Herman met Mike Gundy at midfield after a wild Saturday night at Royal-Memorial Stadium.

“I told Coach Gundy after the game, I said he’s got himself one in that quarterback,” Herman related.

If only Herman had imparted such knowledge before the game.

Texas beat OSU 36-30 because the Cowboys squandered scoring chance after scoring chance, and that squandering was rooted in Gundy and/or new offensive coordinator Sean Gleeson not realizing who was their best weapon, at least on this muggy night deep in the heart of Texas.
