The Final Draw (PFB+): It’s Not Fair, but Hope Must Come from the Defense
Diving deep into the Cowboys’ performance against Houston.
STILLWATER — For the third consecutive week, Oklahoma State’s offense showed signs of life early, only to be put on life support well before the fourth quarter.
That doesn’t do the Cowboys defense any favors, but fair or not, that side of the ball will probably have to turn things around first.
For one, the defense has plenty of holes to patch up, and more importantly, that side of the ball has shown more of an ability to improve, while the offense just feels firmly stuck regardless of how many trick plays Doug Meacham pulls out.
Today’s edition of the Final Draw will focus heavily on what a true defensive turnaround might look like this season:
- Putting OSU’s inability to stop the pass in perspective.
- Defenders stepping into larger roles (and playing well)
- How much of the offensive blame falls on WRs?
