Tuesday in Houston was busy for Oklahoma State as the Cowboys continue to gear up for Friday's Houston Bowl matchup against Southern Miss.

The Cowboys were on the practice field at the Houston Texans indoor facility at 8 a.m., and went through a two hour workout in shorts and shoulder pads. Tuesday's practice was shorter than Sunday and Monday sessions.

"There's a lot going today and we wanted to get our work in early," said OSU coach Les Miles after the practice. "Plus, we've got a fairly early start on Friday so it was good to get out here and get the workout in."

Tuesday's busy schedule found the Cowboys leave practice for a bowl function at Kemah Boardwalk, south of Houston. Both OSU and Southern Miss were scheduled to participate in the event.

Wednesday the Cowboys will go back to the Astrodome for a Christmas afternoon workout.

Oklahoma State and Southen Miss will face each other Friday in the Houston Bowl. Southern Miss arrived in Houston Monday afternoon.
