the handoff on first down to desmond roland. roland knocked back. it's hard to bring this man down. >> charles: that one loss is the one that sticks with you, because you mentioned earlier, they had aspirations of not just a big 12, but competing for a national championship. when they lost to west virginia on the road early, it took them off everyone's radar, because losing to west virginia is not a game that people go, oh, that's a quality loss. that was not one for them. now, it sets them back. guess what? they're still on track now for big 12 championship. they're still on track. everything is still ahead of them. the schedule plays out, they've got tough games coming up. >> gus: oklahoma state, if they win this game, have a great chance at moving up in the bcs with this road win against texas tech. texas tech came in ranked 15th, oklahoma state 18th. as we mentioned at the top of the broadcast, five teams with the chance of coming into today to win the big 12 title. >> charles: let's stay right here, okay? oklahoma state, look what they have com
