OSU Baseball Picked to Finish 5th in Big 12, TV Schedule Set
Baseball is just around the corner.
Baseball is just around the corner, and I mean just around the corner. In two weeks on February 15, Josh Holliday’s squad heads to Edinburg, Texas for a three-game series against UT-Rio Grande Valley to get its season started.
Big 12 play won’t commence until later in March, but the league’s coaches have already prognosticated on which team will end up where in the conference. The coaches have voted the retooling Cowboys to come in fifth.
Rank | Team | Votes |
---|---|---|
1 | Texas Tech (six 1st-place) | 61 |
2 | Baylor (two 1st-place) | 58 |
3 | TCU (one 1st-place) | 48 |
4 | Texas | 40 |
5 | Oklahoma State | 39 |
6 | West Virginia | 31 |
7 | Oklahoma | 23 |
8 | Kansas | 16 |
9 | Kansas State | 8 |
Oklahoma State came in at No. 16 (third among Big 12 teams) in Collegiate Baseball’s Preseason Fabulous 40 poll.
Simpson Lands on All-Big 12 Team
On Thursday, the Big 12 also announced its preseason all-conference team, and senior slugger Colin Simpson made the list as a DH. Last year’s leading Cowboy in home runs and RBIs was also tabbed as a third-team preseason All-American by Collegiate Baseball.
