Daily Bullets (Sept. 5): ‘We’ll Cross Tulsa’s Goal, and Then We’ll Sing “Oklahoma State”‘

The first gameday of the fall – enjoy.

Three Thoughts

• Letting this reality set in – today we finally get some answers.

The Cowboys are two touchdown favorite as they head to nearby Tulsa. But the real story here is the major overhaul that Oklahoma State has gone through with new head coach Eric Morris. Now we get to see what Drew Mestemaker and this projected high flying offense looks like. [HCS]

• TV info, players to watch, everything else you need to know about today’s game against Tulsa – also, if you’re watching at home and want to peek ahead, Oregon is playing Boise State at 2:30pm on CBS (PFB)

• Awesome Drew Mestemaker comparison from a CBS writer:

When I watched Drew Mestemaker for the first time last year at North Texas, it was the same feeling I had watching Drake Maye in his first year starting at North Carolina. From the big frame to the effortless arm talent to the legit wheels they keep under wraps until needed, there are a lot of physical similarities. It’s the way they play the position, though, that really jumped out to me. Both are feel quarterbacks while still being technically sound. They are not robots playing the position but athletes who find answers that suit each unique situation. [CBS Sports]

Two Quotes

• Cowboys – a lot, Sooners – not very much.

• Props to Hauss Hejny for winning the job at Colorado State: 

Colorado State is expected to start Oklahoma State transfer Hauss Hejny at quarterback, sources tell @CBSSports.

One Question

• Is Eric Morris the best quarterback identifier/developer to ever be at OSU? 

Non-OSU Bullets

• America needs it’s boys to play football – great defense of the concept

• Are you a lover of good? (faith-based)

Super interesting map here – Oklahoma = Croatia.
