• Best-case and worst-case scenarios for every OSU Football game this year (NewsOK)

• Reading between the lines, you can see that Mike Gundy is inserting himself more fully into the playcalling/game planning offensively, taking it back to how he did things early in his tenure (PFB)

• Rumors were swirling that the Big 12 was interested in Stanford, Cal, Washington State, and Oregon State – Brett McMurphy squashed it yesterday. Likely the Pac-4 trying to create scarcity for leverage with the ACC.

Despite various reports to the contrary, Big 12 has not had conversations w/any of the Pac-4 schools & has no intention in engaging w/those schools, multiple Big 12 sources told @ActionNetworkHQ

Shared this quote a week ago but I really like it:

“When nothing is working, explore and make a lot of small bets.

After something starts working, double down on what works best.

When that stops working, explore and make a lot of small bets again.”
