There was no execution dov ed t the stretch. None whatsoever.” ;dria,V What makes the loss all tls20or more difficult for Oklahoma Stavtalk to swallow is the fact that two cr ntial cial errors kept the Cowboys fro ivet mounting a nine to 13 point maim in t| gin, rather than eight. ianidi On its second drive of the seiieyoit ond half, Oklahoma State fotllggest] itself with a first-and-goal fronMes the 1 -yard line after a 23-yard rarten on the quarterback keeper. Tv tork plays later, Lindsay ran the ball lean for a 19-7 lead. Simmons optthesa to go for two. Lindsay’s shovifheo pass to tailback Nathan Simmo esdaJ fell short, robbing the Cowboiicrea of two-points. simpd Then on its next possessic ijnifiJ after recovering a Sirr Parker furmRaJ ble at the A&M 26, the CowboanNa were penalized 15 yards for exc€ J ampi] sive celebration. The drive stalkiyboc short of the end zone and OSU h 'onrj to settle for a 27-yard field goal, miul “It (the celebration) cost iono three points,” Simmons said. “V rNe don’t get the celebration call ai Jbuj we may score. I didn’t see it. Butdes took us back to the 50. It’s ridic Houj lous. I was upset with everybody ir20fl throw the ref in there with tLij as I players because he called it. awid “I was more upset with tl sea players. It’s selfish. They dorpM have to do stuff like that because! tj it costs the team.” Prior to the loss, Oklahon State was in the drivers seat fjj the Big 12 south title. Now Cowboys are thrown into a myi ad of teams fighting for a chan to play the No. 1 Nebrasl Cornhuskers for the outright I 12 Championship. “I don’t measure hurts Simmons said. “This is a ga| that, in my opinion, we shot! have won. We had it under co FT] trol, but we didn’t. I think y< learn hard lessons every b; game. This [loss) is a hard less< to learn. “ Smith injure £0| groin in loss ^ SAN FRANCISCO (AP)N Emmitt Smith’s season of disa pointment may have just becoi a lot worse. The Dallas Cowboys’ tailbai with only one touchdown l| year, was knocked out of Sunday game against the San Francis 49ers when he strained his ; ;i groin in the second quarter. Smith was retaped in the loci room and sat on the bench wearing a baseball cap, not his& met — for the final few series of t first half. He changed into street clott during halftime, watching the rt of the game from the sideline. i| appeared to be walking ginger® the sideline. Smith, who had surgery on right ankle in January, also v\ unable to finish Dallas’ gat against Arizona on Sept. 7. He If that game in the fourth quarl with bruised ribs on his right sic Smith, who entered the gai fifth in the NFC with 688 yai rushing, gained 31 yards on sev carries before going out Sunday’s game.
