Daily Bullets (Sept. 16): We’ll Cross South Alabama’s Goal and Then We’ll Sing Oklahoma State

Thanks for stopping by – here’s your daily dose of Oklahoma State sports news.

Three Thoughts

• All the preview/prediction/game-time articles you can handle:
– PFB predicts the South Alabama game
– TV crew and betting line + TV information on the USA game (PFB)
– One player, one problem, one preposterous prediction, one pick for the USA game (Sellout Crowd)

• OSU is No. 6 in these power rankings of Big 12 teams and it’s hard not to feel good about the second-half adjustments last week (TulsaWorld)

• Something that would breed optimism around the Cowboy Football team is serious yards per carry offensively:

“Getting around that 4- to 4.5-yard average per carry is gonna be more important than saying, ‘They need to rush for 150 yards in this game,’” Gundy said. “I don’t want to go in front of the team and say, ‘Hey, if we don’t run for 150 yards in this game it’s gonna be hard to win.’ Well, that might not be true. They might overload the box and play a lot of man, and we might have to throw for 350. So it’s more of the 4 to 4.5 yards per carry.”
