'Cowboy Up'? Not So Much.

And with that, the SI jinx rears its ugly head once more. Dez Bryant was spectacular at times, and Zac Robinson had an impressive (if uneven) performance, as well. Still neither those two nor the rest of the Oklahoma State Cowboys could muster a performance good enough to thwart the Houston Cougars today. After Oklahoma's injuries shifted the national spotlight from Norman to Stillwater, Oklahoma State, playing the unfamiliar role of college football Goliath, just couldn't keep pace with the Cougars, who seemed to have every deflection bounce just right today.

In any case, it was fantastic game, and while the defense for both teams was nonexistent at times, the phenomenal offenses for both sides more than made up for any deficiencies. Be sure to check back for further analysis. Now excuse me while I go watch another fantastic finish in Ann Arbor. I'd forgotten how much I love college football...
