Daily Bullets (Sept. 11): Expectations Have to be Reset

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

OSU Bullets

• Previewing the 2026-27 NFL season and looking at the Cowboys playing in it (OKState.com)

• Weekend watch guide for college football (PFB)

• What a “win” looks like for Oklahoma State against Oregon (NewsOK $$$)

• Liked the take here Kyle Cox (PFB) had during a recent roundtable – expectations have to be reset. 

From the expectation standpoint, I think a reset of what is a successful season is needed. I think a bowl game would be a win.

Which, like I’ll go back to, is more on par with a complete roster reset and new staff. [PFB]

• Oregon Ducks that could be missing for this week’s game (SI)

• Who will backup Caleb Hawkins? (PFB)

• Haven’t fact-checked this but wild if true – explains part of why we all have such great whiplash.  

Try to wrap your heads around these two facts.

• The only XII football program to make the conference championship game twice in the last 5 seasons is Oklahoma State.

• Oklahoma State is 0-19 in their last 19 conference games. #MakeItMakeSense pic.twitter.com/73Rxj7k5Ia
