Daily Bullets (Feb. 12): Local Politicians Advocating for Bedlam Return, Pokes’ Path to the Big Dance

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

OSU Bullets

• The Stillwater and Norman mayors are trying to bring back Bedlam football (PFB)

• How much Cowboy Football assistants are getting paid in their first season (TulsaWorld)

• Marshall Scott laid out a path for the Pokes to work towards for a Big Dance appearance.

You probably would prefer to get to .500 in the league (currently 4-7), which would mean going 5-2 through this upcoming stretch. Given the performance we just watched, that seems unlikely. There is still a path, however. Games you’d love to win that could make a big impact are at Colorado and at UCF. Both, as of writing, would be considered Quad 1 games. [PFB]

• Former Cowboy commit Jackson Holliday will miss the MLB’s opening day for a procedure (ESPN)

• Fun addition to the Big 12 basketball championship games:
