Cowboys Voted Fifth in Big 12 Football Media Preseason Poll
July 12, 2018 | Cowboy Football
STILLWATER – The Big 12 Conference announced its preseason football poll Thursday, with Oklahoma State slotted fifth by media representatives who cover the conference.
Fresh off a third consecutive 10-win season, the Cowboys have an opportunity in 2018 to become the first group in school history to reach that feat four times in a row. They also have a chance to extend a school record streak of consecutive bowl games to 13.
Mike Gundy has already coached the Cowboys to a higher finish than their Big 12 preseason rank in six of the last nine seasons, so those milestones are well within reach.
OSU opens the 2018 season Thursday, Aug. 30, when it hosts Missouri State at Boone Pickens Stadium in Stillwater. Kickoff set for 7 p.m. on FS1.
