Stoops on how much loss was lack of execution versus how well Texas played...

Well you have to complement Texas first, for sure. And we knew they were a very capable team and lost a couple of tight, heartbreaking games.

They were better than people wanted to give them credit for and we were very aware of that.

We had some lack of execution on our part. Defensively, primarily missed tackles, we're in position where we missed multiple tackles on a couple of plays that really hurt us.

Offensively some of our timing and getting the ball out and protection, those things together weren't as good as they needed to be.

Stoops on Kansas State...

Always with their teams the quarterback run game is always a major part of what they do. In fact he's got the most carries on the team, Heubner their quarterback.

Defensively they're always really sound and you've got to execute against them.

Stoops on success in Manhattan...

There isn't any magic to it. It's execution and making plays when you get the opportunity to make them. Overall we've executed in some instances in a pretty good way.

Stoops on how team will bounce back...

I haven't been with 'em yet but we're a team that's got character and our guys will come to work today and try and make improvements in areas we weren't as good as we needed to be and that's what we'll work on.

And it's over.
