Oklahoma State is operating out of probabilities to earn its first Massive 12 win this season.
The Cowboys hope to select up their preliminary convention victory — and keep away from a seventh straight loss general — once they go to TCU on Saturday night time in Fort Price, Texas.
This weekend probably marks the perfect remaining probability for Oklahoma State (3-6, 0-6) to earn a league win. The Cowboys’ closing two video games shall be in opposition to Texas Tech and Colorado, and each of these colleges are within the high half of the league standings.
That mentioned, TCU (5-4, 3-3) is not any slouch. The Horned Frogs had received three of 4 video games earlier than dropping a 37-34 resolution to Baylor final week on the ultimate play of the sport.
Josh Hoover handed for 333 yards for the Horned Frogs, connecting with Jack Bech 5 occasions for 98 yards and two scores in a dropping effort.
“We performed a clear recreation,” TCU coach Sonny Dykes mentioned. “We did not flip the soccer over. We did not capitalize on each alternative that we should always have, clearly. It is irritating.”
In the meantime, Oklahoma State’s six-game skid surprisingly has featured tight losses to ranked foes Utah and BYU and blowouts by the hands of unranked opponents West Virginia and Arizona State.
In final weekend’s 42-21 loss to the Solar Devils, the Cowboys managed simply 270 yards. Ollie Gordon ran for a season-low 25 yards on 11 carries, whereas Alan Bowman (175 passing yards) was held underneath 200 yards for the third time in 4 video games.
“I’ve a good suggestion of what is going on on. I am conscious of the place we’re at as a workforce,” Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy mentioned. “I am conscious of the place we’re at (from a) personnel standpoint on offense, protection and particular groups. That is my job. That is what I do. … It is a quite common day-to-day for me to have a look at the place every thing’s at and to proceed to attempt to work towards the purpose, which is attempt to discover a strategy to win on Saturday.”
The Cowboys should win their closing three video games to develop into bowl eligible for the nineteenth straight season.
TCU has received 4 of the final six conferences, together with 43-40 in double extra time in the latest matchup on Oct. 15, 2022.
