OSU Bullets

• Cowboy Baseball won their opener at O’Brate Stadium – TulsaWorld had some pics here and CRFF posted the walk-up songs

This scoreboard though!

• The 30 best receivers in college football since the turn of the century – four Pokes make the list, a list that makes big mistakes up top

• Love the optimism here about OSU’s stretch run:

Bedlam is 50-50 in either arena. West Virginia? OSU led the Mountaineers by 19 points in the second half Jan. 4 in Stillwater. The Cowboys should have put that one away, and didn’t because they couldn’t contain WVU big man Derek Culver.

[TulsaWorld]

• The Big 12 didn’t help the Pokes any with the reschedules

• 247 did a reranking of the 2022 football recruiting class and the Pokes saw their running back climb almost 50 spots

• Pokes are shining in overtime regardless of a young roster

• Let Oklahoma State play in the tournament – also, this PSA was good:

As we approach the NCAA Tournament, please keep in mind that nobody outside of your pool cares about your bracket. You don’t have to bother the stranger at the bar about it and you certainly don’t have to tell your co-worker about the 13-over-4 upset you picked.

Non-OSU Bullets

• Porter humanized Tiger Woods in an incredible way here
• This take could be divisive but like this take that COVID must end (NYT)
• These comments from a male-perspective about prospective spouses/marriage are terrific (faith-based)
