Team of the Week : Iowa State - This was a close one with TCU, BUT when you get a win over a team for the first time on your home turf since 1960s you get the nod. The game, played in front of some 15,000 fans, went back and forth after the first quarter. OU marched down easily their first drive but the Cyclone D held them to a field goal. Back and forth in the second half, with late in the 4th quarter OU recovered a Purdy fumble and went up 30-23. Iowa State responded with a long kick return and scored 2 plays later to tie it up. After a 3 and out from OU, the Cyclones and Breece Hall ran on the Sooners to go up 37-30. Spencer Rattler then threw a pick sealing the ISU win. OU is now 0-2 going into the Red River Shootout. ISU moves to 2-0 in conference play with their only blemish being the loss to Louisiana in the opener.
For the lead ⤵️

Game of the Week : TCU 33 - Texas 31 : The Big XII had really 3 good games this week and it could be easy to say the Iowa State - OU game, but I'll give the nod to TCU vs Texas. For the second week in a row the Longhorns played from behind. TCU started the scoring and from the play of Max Duggan and 2 turnovers took a 23-14 lead at Campbell-Williams Field. Sam Ehlinger did his best to gun sling the Horns back for a second week in a row tossing for 4 scores but in the end was bested by Duggan and his legs. Duggan threw for 231 yards, and added 79 on the ground with 2 scores. If the Horns are going to compete for the Big XII they need to shore up the defense and get to where they aren't playing from behind. Fun fact, the Horned Frogs are 7-2 vs Texas since joining the Big XII. The state is turning purple from its burnt orange and maroon colors.
Next week's Red River Shootout with OU could be a knockout game for both schools if Texas comes out with a matching second conference loss to the Sooners.
Looking good @MaxDuggan_10 😎#OneHuddle | #GoFrogs😈🐸 pic.twitter.com/ou05WlMKVC

Player of the Week : Chubba Hubbard - RB - Oklahoma State : Hubbard ran for 145 of the Cowboys 295 yards and scored 2 times as Oklahoma State had their way against Kansas 47-7. Hubbard's two scores came in the first half leading to a 31-0 halftime lead and give the Cowboys a 3-0 record and 2-0 in Big XII play. OSU will now the be the hunted along with Iowa State and Kansas State as leaders in the clubhouse early.
