Corey’s Free Pick
BYU’s issues at the quarterback position have led to a down debut season in the Big 12, and while they showed a lot of fight last weekend in their home finale, they likely won’t have the same success here in Stillwater. Mike Gundy has guided the Cowboys thru another successful season, and after securing the final Bedlam win in their last time at Boone Pickens, I believe they’ll follow that showing up strong here on Senior Day. BYU will see better days in the conference, but let’s trust Oklahoma State here at home.
