Daily Bullets (May 3): Kenny G. Wants to Keep Bedlam Alive, OSU vs. Tech in Mexico

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

OSU Bullets

• Kenny G. wants the Sooners even after they head to the SEC (PFB)

• The Pokes lost to ORU last night in Tulsa (Twitter)

• This is terrific – the first pairing mentioned for two Big 12 football teams to play in Mexico is OSU vs. Texas Tech. It makes too much sense.

Lubbock and Stillwater are home to two of the rowdiest fan bases in the entire Big 12, and when they get together, it usually gets pretty wild. Nicknamed the “Dust Bowl” last year, thanks to a well-organized Twitter poll, the Pokes and Red Raiders are perfect representatives of what the Big 12 has to offer.

Historically high-flying offenses combined with blue-collar, hard-nosed coaching would provide Mexico with a real look at one of the Big 12’s best rivalries of the future.

This is pretty funny:

Pretty solid approximations here.

Midwestern Units of Measurement:

Next door = 500 feet – 3 miles
A couple minutes away = 5-10 miles
Up North= hand gesture north-ish
Just up the road = 10-20 miles
Not too far = 45 minutes
A lil’ ways = over an hour
Pretty good drive = 2 hours+
Drive down there = literally…
