That was the Orange & Black speeding up the national rankings ALL OVER THE PLACE!

Let’s take a look at the latest polls this week….

🔺 Caught In A Cyclone. Facing adversity only makes you tougher in the long run.

If that’s the case, the OSU women’s basketball squad will be so tough as the Cowgirls continue to get dealt adversity with injuries and limited available players, the Orange & Black battled their way to a second-half lead, but a late third quarter push by Iowa State, led the Cyclones to a 78-67 win over OSU on Wednesday night.

Quincy Noble led the way offensively for the Cowgirls, scoring 24 points and adding six rebounds, while Anna Gret Asi (13 pts) and Rylee Langerman (12 pts) were the other two in double figures for OSU.

🎉 TRIVIA ANSWER

Answer: 1980.

This year’s meeting renews a series that began in 1912 and includes 46 prior matchups, with 32 games in 38 years from 1943-80 and 19 straight meetings from 1962-80.

It is just the 10th time the teams have played in Stillwater, as previous meetings have also included games played in Fayetteville, Fort Smith and Little Rock. At just a 181-mile drive, Arkansas is the closest FBS program to Stillwater outside of in-state foes Tulsa and Oklahoma.

🤠 Let’s have a great day, Pokes!
