Daily Bullets (Sept. 28): We’ll Cross Kansas State’s Goal and Then We’ll Sing ‘Oklahoma State’

Go Pokes, beat the Cats – every man a Cowboy.

Happiest anniversary to Mrs. Bullets – any minute I get to watch the Pokes today is an unexpected grace gift, just like the past 12 years of marriage to you.  

Three Thoughts

• All the articles for today’s game – kick time and TV info + predictions for today’s game (PFB) 

• Love the logic behind this article – I couldn’t agree more with the premise that the winner of today’s game will still be squarely in the Big 12 title race while the other will have a significant handicap (HCS)

• All but one of CBS Sports’ college football analysts picked the Wildcats today citing the run game as a leading indicator of who will be successful – is it reasonable to think that if Ollie Gordon is the leading rusher in a game, the Cowboys have an incredible chance to win? (CBS Sports)

Two Quotes

• Not a good trendline for Mr. Dunn: 

I don’t want to ruin everyone’s morning, but let’s look at some national offense rankings and where Oklahoma State falls since 2012….

700 followers this morning…. Thank you! Didn’t ever think this account would hit that. Oklahoma State people rock! As does the Big 12! pic.twitter.com/9MZ04zvXhn

• Gosh it would have been amazing to see Lute Olson’s Wildcats take on Eddie Sutton’s Cowboys in Gallagher-Iba.

One Question

• Doesn’t today feel like the most typical “how did Mike Gundy pull that out of his hat” game? i.e. unexpected win like K-State 2023. 

Non-OSU Bullets

• A statistical analysis on the best actor in Hollywood history

• This is encouraging – there’s a rise in “remarriages”

• Outrage is not a fruit of the Spirit (faith-based)
