The Oklahoman's Gina Mizell and John Helsley provided live coverage of OSU-TCU via Twitter. Here's a recap of the game:

@OSUGameDay 2:34 p.m. #OKState wins toss and defers. TCU will get the ball to start the game.

@jjhelsley 2:35 p.m. #okstate and TCU readying for kickoff at BPS. Pokes win toss, defer, Frogs will receive. The QB question will wait a bit longer...

@OSIJJ 2:35 p.m. JW Walsh is on the OSU sideline today...on crutches. #okstate

@OSUGameDay 2:36 p.m. Ashton Lampkin with the game's first big hit. Drops Dawson at the 14. 1st and 10 Frogs. #OKState

@jjhelsley 2:41 p.m. Wes Lunt and Clint Chelf tossing passes to each other on the OSU sideline. Chelf has his helmet on. Lunt does not. If that means anything.

@OSUGameDay 2:42 p.m. Joe Mitchell drops what would have been a pick-six. But still, the #OKState defense holds on third and 15. TCU set to punt.

@OSUGameDay 2:42 p.m. 57-yard punt by Perry is downed at the #OKState 5.

@anthonyVslater 2:43 p.m. #OKstate's defense has now held opponents scoreless on 12 straight drives.

@jjhelsley 2:44 p.m. QB starter is Wes Lunt. #okstate

@OSUGameDay 2:45 p.m. Oh hey, Wes Lunt. It's been a while. #OKState

@OSUGameDay 2:45 p.m. Lunt continues to wear a brace on his left knee. #OKState

@OSUGameDay 2:46 p.m. There's TCU's stout run defense. Stuffs Randle on second- and third-and-short and #OKState will punt.

@jjhelsley 2:47 p.m. Rare sighting: a bad Quinn Sharp punt. Just 29 yards. TCU in business at the OSU 42. #okstate

@OSUGameDay 2:47 p.m. That may have been Quinn Sharp's worst punt of the season. TCU will start in #OKState territory.

@jjhelsley 2:48 p.m. Randle 8-yd gain on first down of initial series may have hurt OSU. Went back to it two more times and stoned. #okstate

@jjhelsley 2:50 p.m. Cowboys' starting field position for first two drives: own 5 and 10. No comfort for Lunt in his return. #okstate

@OSUGameDay 2:52 p.m. Wes Lunt's first pass is picked off Olabode and returned for a score. Intended for Stewart. A little behind, but bounced off hands. #OKState

@anthonyVslater 2:53 p.m. Wes Lunt has thrown four interceptions (two-pick sixes) this season. Three of them haven't been his fault.

@jjhelsley 2:53 p.m. Hardly a perfect throw, but Stewart must catch that ball. #okstate

@OSUGameDay 2:54 p.m. Wow. And after a nice return by Justin Gilbert, he fumbles near midfield. Bad, bad start for the #OKState on offense and special teams.

@jjhelsley 2:56 p.m. Cowboys facing a dose of early adversity. INT and now a fumble by Gilbert on big return. D under the gun. #okstate

@OSUGameDay 2:58 p.m. #OKState defense holds--again. Touchback on punt gives Cowboys their best starting field position of the day.

@OSUGameDay 2:59 p.m. Josh Stewart is having passes thrown at him by IR coach Doug Meacham during this timeout. #OKState

@jjhelsley 2:59 p.m. Defense doing its job early against the Frogs. Three straight stops and 14 in a row over two games. Time for the O to check in. #okstate

@OSUGameDay 3:00 p.m. Jeremy Smith now in the game for #OKState

@OSUGameDay 3:01 p.m. That pass was intended for Isaiah Anderson. He's back. Tracy Moore is on crutches, by the way. #OKState

@OSUGameDay 3:02 p.m. Wes Lunt takes his first shot on an incomplete pass intended for Stewart. Gets up fine. But #OKState will punt.

@jjhelsley 3:03 p.m. Sharp making up for first bad punt, booms one 53. TCU starts at 17. Cowboys w/o a first down. #okstate

@OSUGameDay 3:05 p.m. TCU with its first third-down conversion on a 12-yard pass from Boykin to White. Frogs now at their own 35.

@OSUGameDay 3:06 p.m. On that 46-yard run, Catalon ran through both Daytawion Lowe and Shamiel Gary. Frogs in the red zone now. #OKState

@OSUGameDay 3:07 p.m. Missed tackles galore for #OKState on that drive. Peterson misses one there and Brown scores. Frogs up 14-0 now.

@jjhelsley 3:07 p.m. Young Kevin Peterson taken to school on TCU TD pass. Gave receiver too much room, then missed tackle. 14-0 Frogs. #okstate

@anthonyVslater 3:09 p.m. In their past three home games, #OKstate has been outscored 45-21 in the first quarter.

@OSUGameDay 3:12 p.m. Wild cheer for the #OKState 's first first down of the game.

@OSUGameDay 3:12 p.m. #OKState now in TCU territory after a 12-yard run up the middle by Randle. He's had a few holes to run through.

@OSUGameDay 3:13 p.m. My goodness. TCU was completely fooled there. Austin Hays is WIDE open for 41 yards and #OKState is at the TCU 7.

@OSUGameDay 3:14 p.m. On previous play, Charlie Moore was almost called for block in the back, but penalty flag was picked up. #OKState

@OSUGameDay 3:16 p.m. #OKState offense stalls inside the 10. Quinn Sharp connects on the 22-yard FG and #OKState cuts TCU lead to 14-3 late in the first quarter

@jjhelsley 3:17 p.m. Talked to Gundy earlier in the week about how FGs now a downer for the offense. That one felt like it. TCU 14-3. #okstate

@OSUGameDay 3:18 p.m. End first quarter: TCU 14, #OKState 3.

@jjhelsley 3:19 p.m. After one quarter, TCU leads 14-3. Defense actually playing well -- except for two plays. Game is there for offense to claim. #okstate

@OSUGameDay 3:23 p.m. Overall, #OKState has done well on third down. TCU just 1-of-5. Cooper Bassett got his hands up to knock that ball down. TCU punts

@OSUGameDay 3:24 p.m. First quarter stats #okstate pic.twitter.com/DylCwVLf

@jjhelsley 3:25 p.m. Yes, that was Wes Lunt with a block on TCU DE springing 14-yd Stewart reverse. #okstate

@OSUGameDay 3:26 p.m. Lunt short-hops a swing pass to Randle, and #OKState will punt again.

@OSUGameDay 3:27 p.m. Randle has run fairly well. But other than that busted-coverage play to Hays, #OKState offense has struggled.

@jjhelsley 3:27 p.m. Lunt definitely looking quite rusty, even hesitant, in his first action in more than a month. We'll see if he shakes it off. #okstate

@OSUGameDay 3:31 p.m. Cooper Bassett has lined up at DT a couple times today (and not in the speed package). He was there on that third-down stop. #OKState

@OSUGameDay 3:33 p.m. Lunt hits Stewart over the middle for 39 yards. Tack on a roughing the passer call, and #OKState at the TCU 24.

@OSUGameDay 3:36 p.m. Another #OKState drive stalls inside the 20. Sharp connects on the 34-yard FG and #OKState now trails 14-6 with 9:22 left in second quarter
