2011 BIG 12 STANDINGS
LAST TIME OUT: TEXAS TECH 41, OKLAHOMA 38 TEAM CONFERENCE OVERALL STREAK NORMAN, OKLA. (AP) - Tommy Tuberville got his first landmark win Kansas State 4-0 7-0 W7 with Texas Tech in a place where practically no one else could. Oklahoma State 4-0 7-0 W8 Seth Doege threw for 441 yards and connected with Alex Torres on Oklahoma 3-1 6-1 L1 three of his four touchdown passes, and the Red Raiders snapped No. 3 Texas A&M 3-1 5-2 W3 Oklahoma’s 39-game home winning streak with 41-38 victory Saturday Texas Tech 2-2 5-2 W1 night. Baylor 1-2 4-2 L1 The Sooners’ run had been the longest active streak in the Bowl Sub1-2 4-2 L2 division, and they were bidding to become only the ninth team in FBS Texas Missouri 1-3 3-4 L1 history to win 40 in a row at home. 0-4 3-4 L4 “We wanted to show everybody what kind of team we really do have. Iowa State 0-4 2-5 L5 We’re a resilient team,” Torres said. “We have a lot of fight in us. ...We Kansas knew coming in what we were facing, coming in to Oklahoma and playing in Norman. We knew what kind of challenge we were up against but we knew exactly what we needed to do.” Doege carved up an Oklahoma defense missing three starters, and Tuberville pulled off a feat that Mike Leach couldn’t accomplish in his 10 years in charge of the Red Raiders. The Sooners (6-1, 3-1 Big 12) are now 75-3 on Owen Field in Stoops’ 13 years. The other losses came to TCU in the 2005 season opener and Oklahoma State in the 2001 regular-season finale. The celebration in Lubbock, Texas, featured bells ringing on campus, car horns blaring and fireworks being shot off. “It’s one game, but it’s a huge game for recruiting, for national stature. Obviously, you don’t read too much about Texas Tech,” Tuberville said. “For some reason, I haven’t seen much on TV. I bet you see it the next few days. We’re going to be proud of that. When you go on the road and beat a No. 1 team (in the coaches’ poll), it’s really special. That’s almost impossible to do.”
