WATCH: Sonny Dykes blows up on officials after late substitution from Oklahoma State

TCU football coach Sonny Dykes was unable to control his temper after Oklahoma State was allowed a late substitution in the first quarter Saturday, forcing the Horned Frogs to call timeout to avoid a delay of game.

Dykes got up in an official’s face several times as he screamed angrily trying to state his case. Surprisingly, Dykes was not assessed a penalty for the outburst, and Max Duggan completed a 48-yard pass to Quentin Johnston on the next play to set up TCU’s first touchdown of the afternoon.

The touchdown was a 1-yard run from Duggan, and would make the score 14-7 in favor of Oklahoma State. The Cowboys later added a field goal and currently lead 17-7 with 13:32 remaining in the second quarter.

Heading into the locker room at half, Sonny Dykes spoke with ESPN’s Molly McGrath about the substitution issues with Oklahoma State in the first half.

“Well, I mean, they’re doing a good job of holding it,” Dykes said. “We’ve got to get it figured out. I think the officials said they would talk at halftime. Hopefully come up with a little bit better plan,” Dykes said.

Dykes’ comments proved true, as the ABC broadcast reported after halftime that Cowboys coach Mike Gundy received a warning for his substitution in the first quarter. The Cowboys held a 24-13 advantage at the half.

So far in the second half, OSU has increased its lead to 30-16 after hitting a pair of field goals and giving up just one to TCU. They will hope that two-touchdown lead can be enough to hang on for the win and improve to 6-0 this season.

Meanwhile, TCU will look to come up with some quick offense and avoid its first loss of the season.
