Social Media Reaction: OSU Fans Went on a Roller-Coaster Ride during the Cowboys’ Blowout Loss to Texas Tech

Welpers

#OKState Twitter ran the gamut of emotions during the Cowboys’ 52-27 loss to Texas Tech. There was the first quarter that was so bad you had to laugh followed by the second quarter that made OSU fans believe.

But just when the Loyal and True were ready to see OSU comes out and prove what a second-half team looks like, the Pokes gave up 24 unanswered points. Follow along, if you dare, for each momentum swing as it played out over my timeline.

Elite.

Outlook Thursday, FAA Friday, this game tonight. The problems with Tech continue.

It was a rough start for the Pokes, to say the least.

Whoever had #OkState defense showing signs of life before the offense…you can go ahead and cash out for retirement.

Wow

The Cowboys looked like they were going to turn into that second-half team a quarter early. Maybe that was the problem.

Bullet 5…First Run!

Awesome!

Can’t tell if Morgan McPhaul or Gronk, tbh.

He jumps up and plucks a ball out of the air, trucks past a defender and dives into the end zone.

Tech lead is down to 21-17 with 3:55 to play in the first half.

After further review, Morgan McPhaul just trucked two guys

Defense won us this game

The first wheel fell off on that first drive of the third. The other three came off over the next 12 minutes or so.

Thinking about all the things this Oklahoma State team could have done if it had any semblance of a defense https://t.co/jSBqA6x79u

It’s the Barstool curse. I’m calling it.

Thank God we got that OK State/Texas Tech Over. They made us wait till the very end

Texas Tech may have had the guns first, but apparently pistol Pete is a real guy so I’m giving the win to OK State https://t.co/fr1veKpGVb
