Redshirt Tracker: Thomas Harper Sees Uptick in Snaps vs. Baylor
OSU’s freshman class had a strong outing Saturday despite the loss.
Saturday was a good day for a number of true freshmen at Oklahoma State in different phases of the game.
On special teams, punter Tom Hutton notched his best day as a Cowboy yet, blasting five punts for a 43.4 yard average — including a personal-best 50-yarder. He also completed a pass on a fake punt. Look at this gem! Squared his shoulders, rocked back and let ‘er rip. Les Miles would be proud!
