Cowboy Brew 2/23: The Showdown In Stillwater

Cowboys Set To Host #3 Iowa on Sunday

TGIF Pokes. After the past week of Cowgirls softball, it might be time for Nintendo to unveil a new “Super Smash Sisters” game.

The ninth-ranked OSU softball squad flexed their muscle on Thursday in South Florida just as the #2 ranked wrestling squad prepares for the biggest match of the season.

We’ll cover it all and much more! Check it out below!

🎥 OSUMAX: THE RIVALRY RENEWED

The year: 2019.
The opponent: #3 Iowa.

The No. 2 Oklahoma State wrestling team capped off its 46th undefeated season in program history, defeating the No. 3 Iowa Hawkeyes, 27-12, in front of a sell-out crowd of 13,811 inside Gallagher-Iba Arena on senior day.

The 2nd-ranked Cowboys (15-0 overall, 8-0 Big 12) took seven of 10 bouts en route to the first undefeated season for Oklahoma State since 2005, and coach John Smith's seventh as head coach.

📈 STOCK UP

🔺 The Smash Sisters. The late 80s/early 90s Oakland Athletics became famous for their HR hitting and the infamous “Bash Brothers” duo.

Well, the 2024 OSU Cowgirls might be labeled, The Smash Sisters.

The Orange & Black hit 🖐 more HRs as they swept the first day of the South Florida Showdown, which started with the one of the most lop-sided victories over a top-five program as the Cowgirls shutdown #4 Washington, 7-0. The nightcap saw a 6-1 win over host South Florida.

OSU has now hit 20 HRs in the first 12 games, including 10 in the past three outings.

🔺 The Showdown. Nothing needs to be said. It’s the greatest rivalry in college wrestling.

#2 OSU vs. #3 Iowa.

National Champions. Olympians. You name it. Both programs bring storied history to the mats and Sunday’s showdown will be no different.

A sold out GIA. Two of the top three programs in the country.

Hear from Coach Smith, Izzak and Dustin as they preview this weekend’s match.

🎥 OSUMAX: A PLACE LIKE THIS, SEASON✌️
