Daily Bullets (Oct. 24): Pokes Fighting Off Underdog Cincinnati to Keep Position in the Big 12

I”m back in the saddle – Little Sister Bullets got married in Mexico over the weekend and I’m ready for life after a bye week like Mike Gundy three weeks ago.

OSU Bullets

• We’ll have to wait to find out when Bedlam will kickoff in Stillwater (PFB)

• Pokes open as seven-point favorites over Cinci where they’ll try to hold on to second place in the conference (X and Sellout Crowd)

• Mike Gundy quotes from his weekly presser this week were solid – especially the bit about his brother’s recommendation for the care of Ollie Gordon (PFB)

Mike Gundy said his brother, Cale, texted him about Ollie Gordon after the West Virginia game:

"He said, 'You need to clear two rows of people out of the back and let that horse lay down. Put hay on one side, let him sleep and just keep feeding him.'"
