Cowboys Slotted at No. 10 in Playoff Rankings

STILLWATER – The Oklahoma State football team stayed put at No. 10 in the College Football Playoff Rankings this week.

Following the release of Tuesday's poll, only eight teams have been included in every set of CFP rankings since the beginning of last season: Alabama, Clemson, Florida State, Michigan, Ohio State, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State and Utah.

Riding a seven-game win streak, the Cowboys will face ninth-ranked Oklahoma in a top-10 Bedlam matchup that, for the second consecutive season, will serve as a winner-take-all game for the Big 12 Championship. Saturday's game marks the sixth time in the last nine years that Bedlam has had a direct impact on who won the Big 12.

Earlier this week, the Cowboys were ranked No. 11 by the Associated Press while coming in at No. 10 in the Amway Coaches poll.

Aside from Oklahoma State and Oklahoma, West Virginia came in at No. 16 in this week's rankings. Pittsburgh, who the Cowboys toppled in a 45-38 nonconference matchup earlier this season, entered the poll this week as well at No. 25.

The Cowboys and Sooners are set to clash Saturday at 11:30 a.m. in Norman, Okla. The game will be televised on FOX.
