The hold was good.
But, Clayton Hatfield just pushed the extra point attempt wide right.
And as the ball sailed into the net, Texas Tech’s comeback hopes also slid away.
The Red Raiders couldn’t recover the ensuing onside kick and No. 13 Oklahoma State escaped with a 45-44 win Saturday at Boone Pickens Stadium.
But, few could have guessed the game to come down to an extra point early.
For its first three possession the Texas Tech offense was out of sync.
