Cowboys’ Offensive Line Steadily Improving, Avenges Baylor Mishaps

STILLWATER — In two games against Baylor last season, Spencer Sanders was sacked three times and hurried on eight other occasions. In Waco on Saturday, Sanders was hurried twice and didn’t hit the scorching turf unless he was on one of his 14 rush attempts.

When Oklahoma State beat Baylor 36-25 this past weekend, it avenged a lot of things — most notably a Big 12 championship defeat Arlington. But, it also avenged an offensive line that was put under a microscope and took shots of criticism to the shins all of last season.

The Cowboys were a yard away from a Big 12 title nine months ago, but with seven fourth-quarter snaps from Baylor’s 2-yard line or closer, OSU walked away with only a single field goal.
