📈 STOCK UP

🔼 Race Week. Lace ‘em up baby, we’re ready to roll.

Two of the nation’s best cross country squads will be back in action at the historic Cowboy Jamboree, which OSU will be hosting for the 85th time this weekend right here in Stillwater.

This weekend will be the first full squad meet of the fall as both the men’s and women’s team, who are both ranked in the top-three nationally, set their sights on capturing a third straight Big 12 Championship later this fall.

Race times for Saturday are set for 8:15 am (women) and 8:45 am (men).

🔼 You Just Have To See It. There’s no news story to this one, there’s no preview of an upcoming game.

This was just too awesome to not share with you all.

Who has the best fans in the world? WE DO!

Let’s go POKES!

🔼 Bounce Back Time. After this weekend’s tough 33-7 home loss to South Alabama, the Cowboys will be looking for a bounce back opportunity in a big way to kick off Big 12 conference play.

First up? A trip to Ames and a Saturday afternoon date with the Cyclones of Iowa State.

🎥 HALL OF A WEEKEND

What makes Stillwater so special?

The majority of the time, the answer to that question is “the people”.

This past weekend, six of those special people were enshrined into the OSU Hall of Honor.

David "Buddy" Arndt (wrestling), Justin Blackmon (football), Rickie Fowler (men's golf), Yolanda Odenyo (soccer) and coach Ann Pitts (women's golf) joined Legends division honoree Shelby Wilson (wrestling) as this year's honorees.

OSUMax.com brought you all the coverage from this weekend’s ceremony.

🎥 RIDIN’ WITH THE COWBOYS

EPISODE 4 of “The Ride” takes us inside a road trip, what it takes to travel the program and go inside the meeting rooms as the Cowboys prep for a game week.

The Ride, is a new series taking fans behind closed doors for an all-access weekly look at Cowboy Football.

🤔 COWBOY TRIVIA

Double-Edged Sword. For much of the non-conference schedule, the OSU Cowgirls flexed their offensive prowess, ranking amongst the nation’s best in goals per game.

On the other side of the field, the Orange and Black have been stifling, posting six shutouts so far in 2023.

In fact, they rank 34th in the nation in goals against average (0.60) and 12th in goals scored per game (3.10).

How many other schools rank in the top-15 in offense and top-35 in defense nationally?

🎉 TRIVIA ANSWER

Answer: Three.

That’s right. The Cowgirls are just one of four schools nationally to rank in the top-15 in scoring and top-35 in defense.

Joining OSU in that group is Texas Tech, Memphis and South Alabama.

🤠 Have an awesome Tuesday, Pokes!
