OSU football: Life on the cornerback island suits A.J. Green

WACO, Texas — A.J. Green likes life on the island.

It's largely motivational for the Oklahoma State cornerback, knowing he'll spend play after play isolated in coverage of a wide receiver.

It's what keeps him in the film room, typing thoughts into his phone throughout the week. It's what keeps him sitting at his locker before a game, like he'll be doing Saturday morning at McLane Stadium, studying his notes and watching more film right up until the Cowboys take the field for their 11 a.m. kickoff against Baylor.

Green has been studying the tendencies of Baylor receivers Jalen Hurd and Denzel Mims, preparing for life on the island with a couple of the Big 12's best wideouts.
