What feels more like two months ago, OSU blew out a still winless Kansas team as the No. 17 team in the country. Their next game will should prove to me a much tougher test.

The Cowboys and their next slated opponent, No. 17 Iowa State, are the two highest-ranked Big 12 teams. Kansas State comes in at No. 20. Oklahoma is the second team outside of the top 25 with 74 votes and West Virginia is two spots further with 57. Texas received one AP vote.

This is the highest the Cowboys have been in the AP Poll since Week 4 of 2017, when the Mason Rudolph-led Pokes were 3-0.
