Texas was penalized 14 times for 119 yards. Oklahoma State was not penalized once. ? No. 11 Oklahoma State scored a comeback victory Saturday that was aided at least in part by a sloppy performance by No. 21 Texas. Oklahoma State safety Jason Taylor II bookended the day with a pair of interceptions.The redshirt senior intercepted Ewers on the first possession of the game, leading to an OSU field goal.Then, with the Cowboys clinging to a 41-34 lead, Taylor picked off Ewers on a fourth-down throw with less than two minutes to go. He appeared to suffer a lower leg injury on the play. That makes three interceptions for Taylor on the season, and three in two games against Texas in the last two seasons. Taylor had an 85-yard interception return for a touchdown that kickstarted the Cowboys’ rally in Austin last season. Shaky special teams Read more:

Either the 20th-ranked Longhorns (5-2, 3-1 Big 12) take a significant step toward their ultimate goal of playing for a Big 12 title in December, or they fall short and tumble back to the middle of the pack. That makes three interceptions for Taylor on the season, and three in two games against Texas in the last two seasons. Either the 20th-ranked Longhorns (5-2, 3-1 Big 12) take a significant step toward their ultimate goal of playing for a Big 12 title in December, or they tumble back to the middle of the pack. Taylor had an 85-yard interception return for a touchdown that kickstarted the Cowboys’ rally in Austin last season. Texas running backs Bijan Robinson and Roschon Johnson provided a few weeks’ worth of highlights in the first half working behind an offensive line that occasionally included three true freshmen. Shaky special teams OSU has heavily relied on its special teams play in tight wins this season, but Saturday was a different story. “They’re gonna bring everything they got, and we’re gonna come right with it to bring everything we got, too.” Here’s what to watch for when Texas and Oklahoma State (5-1, 2-1) collide Saturday afternoon at Boone Pickens Stadium: 1. The Cowboys had a punt blocked and struggled to tackle on kick and punt coverage. Punter Tom Hutton also had a punt bounce into the end zone for a touchback, his first of the season and just the 11th of his career in 225 attempts.: 1. And to cap it off, Oklahoma State placekicker Tanner Brown missed a field goal attempt for the first time this season. Sanders’ status is the most consequential mystery hanging over this game. Brown made a 48-yard field goal in the first quarter, his 13th of the season in 13 attempts. Without the redshirt senior, well, who knows? Sanders’ status is the most consequential mystery hanging over this game. Quarterback Quinn Ewers threw an interception on the Longhorns’ opening drive and missed the mark on several other throws while dealing with some pressure. He had made 16 straight overall dating back to the Fiesta Bowl. But Brown’s streak ended on the final play of the first half, when he pulled a 48-yarder to the left with the Cowboys trailing by a touchdown. Oklahoma State has averaged 45.3 points and 455. Brown bounced back with a 40-yard field goal in the third quarter, cutting a 10-point Texas lead to seven. For his career, Brown is 31-of-36 after transferring to the Cowboys as a walk-on from UNLV in 2021.5 yards per game with Sanders leading the way this season. Cowboys without several starters Oklahoma State was without starters at five positions against Texas on Saturday, though quarterback was not one of them. But without Sanders, this offense takes on an entirely different dynamic. Running back Dominic Richardson finished off three drives with short touchdown runs, and kicker Tanner Brown connected on a 48-yard field goal to account for the Cowboys’ first-half scoring. Sanders played once again, despite battling ongoing shoulder pain. But without Sanders, this offense takes on an entirely different dynamic. At receiver, starter Braydon Johnson and backup Jaden Bray — the likely replacement for Johnson — were out. Center Preston Wilson remains out after suffering a lower leg injury two weeks ago. 2 is Gunnar Gundy, a second-year walk-on and the son of coach Mike Gundy. And he would represent a steep downgrade from Sanders, the first-team All-Big 12 quarterback last year. He was replaced by Joe Michalski. On defense, tackle Brendon Evers announced earlier this week he will not play the rest of the season. Texas at least will have some recent game film to study if Sanders is replaced. Texas had a chance to retake the lead on its ensuing drive. Injuries have hampered him all year. 17. Defensive end Brock Martin was inactive with a left foot injury. 17. Additionally, safety Thomas Harper missed the game. To adjust, OSU shifted starting cornerback Jabbar Muhammad to the cover safety spot Harper usually mans. 2. Can Texas take advantage of Oklahoma State’s quarterback situation? This question flows naturally from the previous one. Korie Black and Cam Smith started at cornerback. Texas couldn’t capitalize on its next chance to answer. Multiple players exited during the game with injuries as well, including running back Dominic Richardson, who had three rushing touchdowns in the first half. Because if the Longhorns can’t keep a banged-up quarterback or a walk-on backup in check, they have no business playing for a Big 12 championship this year. . And aside from Sanders, the ground dimension of Oklahoma State’s offense has produced middling results, at best.
