OSU Bulletsa

• The NCAA issued a statement in response to OSU’s statements about the the basketball sacntions

• Predicting how the Cowboy Football season will finish

• How fun to see the College Football Playoff committee raving about the Pokes:

“Very impressive,” (Committee chair Gary) Barta answered. “Like most people across the country that have watched Oklahoma State over the years, the fact that their defense is so dominating this year is noted. Just this past week, I think they had seven sacks (it was actually eight) and really dominated that game at West Virginia, which is a tough place to play. They’ve beaten Baylor. Their only loss is at Iowa State, which is a tough place to play.

“The committee thinks very highly of Oklahoma State. I haven’t looked ahead to see who they play next week (TCU in Stillwater), but we’ll continue to watch them, and very impressed with them.”
