This hype video tho. (PFB)

I love this from Jordan Sterns: “That’s all you have to do, find a way. It doesn’t have to be pretty. People love to see you win by big numbers, of course, but at the same time, if you get the job done, you get the job done. Sometimes I think it makes it even better that we’ve been through all those close games. When it comes to crunch time, we’ve been there before. You keep that attitude, I feel like things can’t go wrong.” (NewsOK)

We keep hearing, “If Oklahoma State can win out they’ll be in the playoff”. Which is true, but first the Cowboys must run the gauntlet that is the Big 12 Playoffs. Win against TCU and you live to play another playoff game, lose and the road becomes all but closed. Sure, the team could still win out and have a shot to win the conference but they lose control of their own destiny, especially when it comes to the national picture. See Big 12,  2014. (CRFF)

S&P+ says TCU by five. (SB Nation)

Evan Epstein: “In a lot of ways, this team is better than 2011. And who knows? Maybe that’s why we lost at Iowa State. We got challenged and we didn’t know how to react to it because we never had to, because up to that point, we had been destroying people.” (NewsOK)
