Oklahoma State took a hit this week in the polls for losing Baylor, which is unfortunate because now, with two more games remaining for Baylor, they could realistically lose both without Jared Stidham.
I’m a big fan of Oklahoma State, and I think if they were to replay Baylor now, they would win. They had the benefit of the doubt of playing TCU and Baylor both at home, and get Oklahoma at home as well. That definitely plays a huge factor in their strength of schedule, in my eyes, and I don’t think they’d be where they are without their home schedule.
A great team, yes, but they’ve definitely had too many close games to fall in love with them.
