Daily Bullets (Aug. 15): Pokes Sold Out, An OSU-Friendly Pod System

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

OSU Bullets

• Cowboy Football sold out their season ticket allotment for the first time since 2013 (PFB)

• Good Cowboy Basketball insights in five thoughts on the recent Spanish game (PFB)

• OKC Dave’s annual (OSU) fan survey is here – make sure and weigh in (PFB)

• Big fan of this pod concept for the Pokes that’s been floating around message boards – love how they shift Houston east.

It’s easy to think “everyone will want access to Texas teams” and rule it out, but OSU really is one of the top brands in the league and it’s easy to see them getting what they want a bit:

West Pod: Utah, BYU, Arizona, Arizona State

Southwest Pod: OSU, Texas Tech, Baylor, TCU

Heartland Pod: Kansas, Kansas State, Colorado, Iowa State

East Pod: UCF, WVU, Cincinnati, Houston

• Now’s the time to buy low – the Pokes were left out of the AP preseason poll (PFB)

• Love this mentality from Dr. Shrum:

Two years ago, #OKState President Kayse Shrum would have said OU and Texas leaving the Big 12 wasn’t a good thing.

Not anymore.
