What the Media Are Saying: OSU vs. Kansas State
November 05, 2016 | Cowboy Football
STILLWATER – There's been plenty to discuss heading into today's game between Oklahoma State and Kansas State in Manhattan. The Cowboys are ranked No. 22 in the Associated Press Poll with a 6-2 record on the year, while the Wildcats are sitting with a 5-3 overall record and have not been beaten at home this season.
One aspect of the Cowboys' success so far this year was detailed by The Oklahoman's John Helsley, who wrote about how important and impressive receiver James Washington's yards after catch statistics have been. Helsley quoted several people involved with the offense about how good Washington is with the ball in his hands and how he's averaged nearly eight yards after catch per reception.
Others covered some personal stories about what makes some Cowboys click off the field and how they got to where they are, including a great story about running back Chris Carson's path to OSU from The O'Colly's Chandler Vessels and another great read from the Stillwater Newspress' Jimmy Gillispie about receiver Chris Lacy's achievements on the field and in the classroom.
As far as the X's and O's go, Mark Cooper of the Tulsa World broke down several matchups to watch for today, and The Oklahoman's Kyle Fredrickson and the Stillwater Newspress' Jason Elmquist both wrote articles for getting to know the Kansas State Wildcats. See Fredrickson's here and Elmquist's here.
It should be a fun one to watch, so if you can't be there then be sure to catch it live on ABC/ESPN2 with Allen Bestwick, Mike Bellotti and Kris Budden on the call.
