Daily Bullets (May 8): Cowgirls Move on to Round Two, Pokes Drop Bama, Add Big Ten Foe

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

OSU Bullets

• Cowgirls took out Utah in their first Big 12 tournament game last night, 7-0 – Kenny Gajewski went after the Big 12 about his ace sharing an award (PFB)

• OSU’s home-and-home with Alabama is being replaced by a home-and-home with a Big Ten foe, Michigan State (PFB)

• Really solid two sentences explaining the football situation in Stillwater – and a reality we didn’t know six months ago.

It was unclear what exactly the NIL situation was in Stillwater, and if they would be able to compete with some of the top-tier programs, but based on this off-season haul, it looks like that is not going to be an issue. And with winning will come more resources. [HCS]

• Six of Cowboy Wrestling’s 2026 recruits are in the top ten of the class (PFB)

• Cade Cunningham had an awesome game, led the Pistons to a 2-0 lead on the Cavs (ESPN)

•  What a fun concept for All-Americans – it’s like the wrestling version of Cowboy Football bowl captains getting a badge on their jersey: 

Every cowboy needs a hat! Wild Spade fitted each of our 8 All-Americans with a custom hat today.🤠#stillyboys pic.twitter.com/Dp11tg5tC0
