πŸŽ₯ OSUMAX: HALLOWEEN WITH THE POKES

Several members of the OSU Football team headed out to the six Stillwater Elementary Schools to welcome kids to class on Halloween. Take a trip with the Cowboys as the head out for a fun morning with the kids.

πŸ“ˆ STOCK UP

πŸ”Ό No Place Like Home(coming). The 103rd edition of America’s Greatest Homecoming is on tap for tomorrow in Stillwater as the Cowboys return home to take on the Sun Devils of Arizona State at 6 pm.

It marks OSU's first home game in 28 days, and it is OSU's latest Homecoming game since 2002 and just the third November Homecoming since 1985.

πŸ”Ό One More For The Case. Before hanging them up for good, OSU head wrestling coach David Taylor had one more piece of hardware to add to his case.

Taylor mowed through the Repechage Bracket and picked up the bronze medal at the 2024 Senior World Championships on Thursday, adding a sixth career world medal to his resume.

One of the most successful American wrestlers in history, Taylor won four world titles throughout his career, including at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, and medaled in each of the last five years. He also racked up an impressive senior freestyle record of 161-22 with victories in 79 of his last 83 matches, a stretch that included a 57-match winning streak from December 2017 to October 2021.

πŸŽ₯ OSUMAX: SO FRESH, SO CLEAN

The OSU football team pays homage to its earliest history at Saturday’s Homecoming matchup against Arizona State, as the Cowboys wear some of the earliest known
logos and stripes in school history to help commemorate the team’s 125th season.

Go inside the story of the jersey creation with the guys behind the scenes

πŸŽ™ LEADING THE WAY

The OSU Cowboys continue to find themselves among the best collegiate athletic departments in the country and a lot has to do with the leadership
of Chad Weiberg, the Director of Athletics.

Recently, he joined the β€œOn The Fly” podcast to recount his rise from unpaid intern
to his current leadership role. The discussion goes on to cover the challenges
and strategic moves amidst Big 12 conference realignment and
the departure of Oklahoma and Texas.

He also delves into the changing landscape of college football, including the
future of the Bedlam rivalry, the recent College Football 'Super League' proposals
and House Settlement, and the widening gap in media rights revenues. The
episode concludes with insights on the broader implications of reforms and
the adaptability required to navigate ongoing changes in college athletics.
