Imagine if Oklahoma AND Texas lost their conference openers.
If ever there were a year for a program to dethrone the Sooners and Longhorns, this would be the one. Who the hell looks like a champion out of this conference? K-State beat Oklahoma only after losing to a Sun Belt opponent the week before. OK State barely held on to beat Tulsa in its season opener. Baylor remains a question mark.
This was our chance, and we probably blew it.
The momentum Tech would’ve gathered after defeating Texas and the prospect of being in control of our own destiny would’ve propelled us to easy wins against Iowa State and West Virginia before meeting up with turnover-prone Spencer Rattler and the ghastly Oklahoma Sooners defense.
