Texas is no longer ranked in the USA TODAY Sports Coaches Poll after a heartbreaking loss to Oklahoma State.
The Longhorns appeared to be in control of the game late into the third quarter, but only mustered three total points in the second half. Oklahoma State held on to win 41-34 in Stillwater.
Steve Sarkisian’s squad will likely have to win the remaining games on their schedule for any shot at reaching the Big 12 championship game in December.
