Players receive a brief warm-up period once officials clear conditions, then the game continues from where it stopped.<\/p>\n<p>Conference games like Oklahoma State at Texas Tech rarely get canceled once they start. Both teams and officials typically wait out delays to complete the contest, especially with implications for the Big 12 standings at stake. Texas Tech\u2019s perfect 4-0 home record and sold-out crowd added urgency to finishing Saturday\u2019s game.<\/p>\n<p>Oklahoma State\u2019s struggles continued into Week 9. The Cowboys averaged just 16.6 points per game and had only four passing touchdowns as a team. The Cowboys need wins in their final five games for bowl eligibility after six straight losses dropped them to 0-4 in conference play.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.statmuse.com\/cfb\/ask?q=oklahoma+state+record+vs+texas+tech+all-time\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow noreferrer\">all-time series stands tied<\/a> at 24-24-3 entering the 52nd meeting, with Texas Tech holding a 13-8-2 advantage in Lubbock games.<\/p>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Saturday\u2019s Big 12 clash between Oklahoma State and No. 14 Texas Tech hit a weather delay when storms&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":21791,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[168,170,169],"class_list":["post-21790","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-lubbock","tag-lubbock","tag-lubbock-headlines","tag-lubbock-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21790","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=21790"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21790\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/21791"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=21790"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=21790"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=21790"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
