PSA: the Baylor game kickoff has been moved up today to 2:30pm. Go Pokes.

Three Thoughts

• I’ll go ahead and say I’m more excited about OSU’s basketball game than the football game – we’re all there now, right?

• Glad to see the Pokes landed this junior college linebacker in the run up to signing day

• Couldn’t agree more with this take from Mike Gundy to his son Gavin after he ranted about his dad’s detractors:

“Overall he didn’t mind what I said. (Mike Gundy) said, ‘I said what I said,’ but then he went back to the whole ‘You’ve got to stop scrolling, you’ve got to stop getting on there, you’ve got to stop getting into it with people because it’s a losing battle, there’s no point to it, it’s not going to resolve anything.’”

Two Quotes

• Let’s go ahead and get ahead of this – when the offense stalls today in Waco, here’s why per Mike Gundy:

“We’ve had a few issues,” Gundy said of offensive line woes on past teams, “but we’ve not ever had what we’ve gone through. Even the years that we struggled up front, we’ve not had this situation.

“So, there’s not anything wrong with Kasey Dunn.”

• Keep an eye out for a starting lineup change from Mike Boynton soon:

“What I’ve gotta figure out is if we are starting the right group of guys,” Boynton said. “Not that any of those guys shouldn’t play, because they all are going to play no matter what, but is that the right group to start the game. I say that only because, not that I expect to run away from anybody, but we haven’t had a great flow to start the game. We’ve kind of started slow in all of the games we play so far…”

One Question

• Would you rather OSU play Arkansas, Kentucky, or Mississippi State in the Texas Bowl? I’ll take a Mike Leach opponent, please.
