A quick look at Oklahoma State' history.
Before delving into the 2007 OSU Cowboys, I thought I would take a quick look at the program's history--the 2007 Insight Bowl is still three weeks away, after all. Academically, Oklahoma State, which is the state's land grant school, bears more resemblance to Purdue than to IU. The school was...
Football odds and ends.
Not much is going athletically during finals week, but here are a few tidbits:Franklin Central running back Darius Willis committed to IU earlier in the week. Willis was considering Purdue, Kentucky, and Boston College. That seems better than the profile of our typical recruits.Oklahoma State...
Oklahoma State's 2007 season.
Before I get into this post, if you couldn't read the box score in the Rose Bowl post below, I have edited the post. You can view the full size version by clicking on the image.Here's a quick overview of the Cowboys' 6-6 season, with game recaps linked:September 1: L 14-35, at Georgia. This was one...
Oklahoma State by the numbers.
The Insight Bowl is just five days away, and with tonight's Motor City Bowl between Purdue and Central Michigan, the Big Ten's bowl season is underway. The bowl retrospectives will continue tomorrow, but it's time to take a look at the Cowboys statistically. As the look back at the Cowboys' season...
Meet the Cowboys.
Just about 24 hours until the Insight Bowl kicks off. I've discussed OSU's team stats, but here are the individuals worth watching tomorrow. Zac Robinson, sophomore quarterback. Robinson emerged as OSU's starter early in the season and has become a reliable dual threat for the Cowboys. Robinson...
Gameday!
Here's a nice preview from Pete Fiutak of Fox Sports, even if he does pick the Cowboys. OSU remains approximately a 4.5 point favorite, which, given OSU's high-production offense and the tougher schedule, is fair. It looks like a nice day in the Valley of the Sun. Sunny, with the high of 65...
Oklahoma State 49, Indiana 33.
The Hoosiers' return to postseason play was an important outcome on its own, but IU was dominated by Oklahoma State, which should provide the team with plenty of offseason motivation. Here's the box score. Anyone who watched the game knows that the final score doesn't really reflect the full extent...
Game week!
Five days from today, almost to the hour, the Hoosiers begin the 2008 season with a home game against new-to-I-A Western Kentucky. Plenty of questions remain about the season and the program. Will Kellen Lewis, Ben Chappell, or both be the quarterback? How will IU's offense respond to the departure...
Helmet change, again.
Per Ken Bikoff of Inside Indiana, IU will be sporting a third helmet design in the Insight Bowl. Because of positive feedback about the design of the throwback helmet:IU will keep the stripes, but will switch to the interlock IU logo (seen in the header at the top of this blog) instead of the block...
"Bring on Missouri" -- Kansas 78 Oklahoma State 67
As soon as James Anderson's three went through as the time ticked to :00, I immediately began counting down the hours to Monday night, 8 PM CST (45 hours from publishing time, by the way). It's what all of us wanted to do all week; to begin looking forward to the biggest Big Monday so far. Quite...
