OSU Bullets
• Pokes opened a one-point underdog to the Longhorns for homecoming
• OSU dropped out of the top ten in both the AP Poll and the Coaches Poll
• The fountain is orange – homecoming is almost here
• This is the most realistic, ideal scenario for OSU to get into the College Football Playoff:
The ideal scenario would be for Oklahoma State and TCU to meet again in the Big 12 title game — a realistic scenario — to give the Cowboys a second chance to impress the committee when it matters most.
[ESPN+ $$$]
• Spencer Sanders predicted a rematch with the Frogs in Arlington
• After leading for most of the tournament, hated to see Rickie Fowler lose in Japan yesterday
• It feels a bit like the lazy take to chalk this all up to Mike Gundy’s conservative tendencies but this summarized Saturday well:
Oklahoma State went from trying to win the game in the first half to trying not to lose the game in the second half.
[HCS]
The TCU defense (via familiarity with the Pokes from the defensive coordinator’s time at Tulsa) had lots of familiarity with the Pokes – the Frogs made some terrific adjustments defensively, Gundy wins a lot of games using his special teamers kicking field goals or punting on fourth down – chalk this up to taking the good with the bad.
• Loved all the orange in Fort Worth last weekend:
• If this tells us anything, the Pokes should be fine at home this weekend, right?
Non-OSU Bullets
• I could spend too much time trading players and seeing what a contender could look like
• Can’t tell me I don’t need to see a couple from Waco renovate a castle
Seeing the Tennessee fan reaction to beating to Bama the other night was a lot of fun.
