Oklahoma State Over Texas Tech – Another Typical Big 12 Shootout
When Texas Tech come to visit Oklahoma State, it’s quite certain two things will happen: A lot of points will be put on the board, and the Cowboys will come away with the win (45-35) as the two teams opened their Big 12 conference schedule with a wild throwing night for both Daxx Garman and Davis Webb, who didn’t finish the game and left in the fourth quarter with a shoulder injury.
