OSU Bullets

Mike Gundy’s (public) stance on NIL is changing (Sellout Crowd)

• OSU’s duel with Iowa will be nationally televised (PFB)

• Mike Gundy is top-ten in wins at a school (in a few capacities), his tenure at Oklahoma State is incredibly long for the times (x)

• Berry Tramel has the Pokes over the Mountaineers – namely off of recent history:

Oklahoma State at West Virginia: Cowboys 24-23. The Mountaineers have averaged just 13 points a game against the Cowboys the last four seasons.

• Of the Cowboys’ remaining games – which does ESPN’s rating system give OSU the lowest chance to win (outside of OU)? At UCF – 35.5 percent chance to win.

• Ollie’s got some burst:

WATCH: Oklahoma St. RB Ollie Gordon (@Ollie_Gordon2) hit a max speed of 19.3 mph on this 42-yard touchdown. #ReelSpeed #GoPokes @JohnWozniak2

• When you think about WV’s location, an outsider might think they’re comparable to a Colorado or Utah.

Non-OSU Bullets

• What a fun story about a CFB writer who’s covering tons of games this year
• Praying as a parent (faith-based)

The company that produces M&Ms will be giving away free refills on Halloween – brilliant move.

The Rescue Squad will be working in partnership with delivery service GoPuff while supplies last, filling your bowl within 30-60 minutes—free of charge. To order some emergency treats, visit the Rescue Squad’s site. The helpers will be on call starting at 3 p.m. ET on Oct. 31.
