Daily Bullets (Feb. 23): Blowouts Both Ways for OSU Hoops, Cowgirls Do Senior Day Right

Thanks for stopping by – here’s your daily dose of Oklahoma State sports news.

OSU Bullets

• The Cowgirls continued to pad their NCAA Tournament resume while showing out for their seniors. The Cowgirls rolled Colorado 82-65. [PFB]

• This was pretty great.

All 6️⃣ seniors brought the hype 🤩#GoPokes | @okstatealumni pic.twitter.com/3VlvaP6ikO

• The Cowboys, however, drew the unenviable card of playing in Phog Allen on a homecoming following a historically bad Jayhawks loss. Things played out as you might have expected. [PFB]

• Marshall had five good thoughts on the game. [PFB]

• Bill Self was asked about Steve Lutz and his fit in Stillwater. He has nothing but support for the first-year coach of his alma mater.

Yesterday, Bill Self said #OKState has “the right guy” in Steve Lutz.

I asked Self what makes Lutz “the right guy.” Here’s what Self said: pic.twitter.com/H3qKNMVoXp

• And then he had some great stuff to say about GIA. 

#OKState coach Steve Lutz always says he wants Gallagher-Iba Arena to be rowdy again. Bill Self, former OSU player and coach, knows what that used to be like.

After Lutz complimented Kansas’ home crowd in its 96-64 win against OSU, I asked Self what it’ll take to bring GIA back: pic.twitter.com/VQtntxOXdG

Non-OSU Bullets

• If you’re a space nerd like me.

I love you to the Moon, but not back – I’m staying there,” 💙 Blue Ghost. We captured our first shots of the Moon following a successful Lunar Orbit Insertion. The lander will soon begin to circularize its orbit in preparation for landing on March 2. #BGM1 pic.twitter.com/2FclZ1hnvb
