Oklahoma State is pretty evenly matched in overall talent level against its upcoming opponent on Saturday based off an examination of its starting lineup with that of West Virginia’s.
As we do each week, let’s take a look at how the two squads stack up looking strictly at high school recruiting rankings of starters going into the game. (Note: As I do each week, unranked prospects have been given a grade of 70 to avoid completely torpedoing the overall average ranking of each unit.)
The overall average ranking for OSU on offense is 82.94, which, according to 247Sports’ index, figures out to be a mid-to-low 3-star per starter.
