This week we're running a series on the teams capable of dethroning two-time defending Big 12 champ Oklahoma next season. We continue the series with the Oklahoma State Cowboys:
How the Cowboys can beat OU: First of all, by not changing who they are in Bedlam. Usually otherwise bold offensively, Oklahoma State has gone conservative against the Sooners, notably in 2013 and 2016, when Big 12 titles have been on the line.
The weather played a part in both, including wet conditions last season. But the rain also didn't change Oklahoma's game plan much, as Sooner quarterback Baker Mayfield still shredded the Cowboys for 288 yards passing and three touchdowns.
