OSU Bullets

• The Pokes are still in the same spot in the AP and in the Coaches Poll after the bye week – Texas remained in the top-25 after losing to OU

• ICYMI – the Pokes are set for the early kickoff in Austin on Saturday

• Here’s why you can be confident about OSU’s defense on Saturday – they’re one of the best Texas has seen yet (Arkansas is really close in points per drive to OSU):

OSU has held opponents to 91 rushing yards and 214.2 passing yards per game. Opponents are also 22 for 74 on third down, an impressive 29.7% success rate. OSU also has 16 sacks. The Cowboys have the talent and confidence on defense to slow down the Longhorns’ offense, which has issues on the offensive line.
