     <\/p>\n

    Oklahoma had their way over Texas Tech.\u00a0The Sooners beat the Red Raiders 63-27.\u00a0 The Sooner rushing game ground up 405 yards on 57 carries as Samaji Perine led OU with\u00a0201 yards (23 carries and\u00a04 TDs)\u00a0and Joe Mixon complimented Perine with\u00a0154 yards (16 carries and 2 TDs).\u00a0 Baker Mayfield\u00a0threw\u00a0it\u00a022 times with\u00a015 completions for\u00a0212 yards and two touchdown passes.\u00a0The\u00a0Sooner qb had one\u00a0first\u00a0half interception.\u00a0 The OU offensive was unstoppable.\u00a0 Texas Tech qb Pat Mahomes\u00a0II\u00a0threw\u00a0four interceptions in the loss.\u00a0<\/span><\/h6>\n

    <\/h6>\n
    Oklahoma State pasted Kansas 58-10.\u00a0 JW Walsh and Mason Rudolph were spot on as a duel quarterback tandem for the Cowboys who were mistake free in their romp over KU.\u00a0<\/span> The Pokes took it to the Jayhawks early and another impressive defensive performance was key. The Cowboys running game improved with over 200 yards.\u00a0 It is the 3rd time in Coach Mike Gundy’s run at Stillwater in getting the team to a 7-0 start.\u00a0<\/span> <\/strong><\/h6>\n

     <\/p>\n

    Texas used a good defensive game to deck Kansas State 23-9.\u00a0 The Horn’s are seeking a bowl game and this win puts them in contention with wins over West Virginia and Texas Tech.\u00a0 Those are not given and it is still an uphill road for a 13th game for UT this year.<\/span><\/strong><\/h6>\n

     <\/p>\n

    Baylor took apart Iowa State early then held on for a 45-27 home win against Iowa State.\u00a0 Baylor quarterback suffered a neck fracture and is status will be determined later. He could be back early or it could be a season ending injury.\u00a0 A significant blow to Seth Russell could derail the Bears as it is very rare for a freshman quarterback to lead a team to the National title no matter how talented he might be. Jerret Stidham finished the game for Baylor.<\/em><\/span><\/strong><\/h6>\n

    Another Sad Day for O-State, Stillwater, and the State of Oklahoma<\/em><\/h4>\n
    <\/h6>\n
    Homecoming at Oklahoma State turned into a terrible and\u00a0heartbreaking day.\u00a0 A woman drove her car into a crowd of bystanders watching the Homecoming parade, killing 4 and injuring 44.\u00a0 Past history has not been good for OSU with previous tragic events dotting the University’s history.\u00a0 The OSU experience has shown that good people can manage these incidents but some places get more than they deserve.\u00a0 Prayers to the Cowboy community, Stillwater the city, and Oklahoma the State.\u00a0 Tomorrow will come and a better day will take the place of yesterday.<\/strong> <\/span><\/em><\/h6>\n
