Title: A Look at Oklahoma State
Post by: catsfan20012002 on October 02, 2006, 11:17:51 AM
Oklahoma State is 3-1 but really hasn't played anybody. Their loss was to Houston whose only loss was at Miami (FL) by 1 point but Miami isn't Miami anymore.

QB Bobby Reid is coming off of a foot injury that kept him out for most of OSU's 4-7 season in 2005. He's completing 56% of his passes for 200 yards/game (11 yards/completion) and 10 TD's.

RB's Mike Hamilton and Keith Toston average 5.7 yards/carry. Hamilton has been into the end zone 3 times.

Their top receiver is WR Adarius Bowman (a transfer from North Carolina). He got into some trouble at UNC for drugs which he said weren't his. The charges got thrown out but N. Carolina had already thrown him off of the team. They invited him back but he said "no" and transferred to OSU. Bowman is averaging 26 yards/catch and has 3 TD's.

He concerns me because the Cats have already given up 9, 25, 15, 13, 13 and 36 yards/catch to receivers this season.

Defensively they've got two playmakers in SS Andre Sexton and FS Donovan Woods. They're +3 in turnover ratio. The Cats are +1 in turnover ratio during the two game losing streak (5 turnovers vs. Baylor.....Yikes) but when we get them, and we can get them vs. OSU, we MUST cash them in.

OSU has had decent luck with UNC drug-related castaways.

And there must be an infinite number of Woods brothers.

Cloning isn't illegal in Okie, apparently.

My wife an I will be in attendance.  She will be in orange and I in purple.  I'm expecting a close game only because its in Manhattan.  I hope its not a long trip back for me!  I went to the FAU game and OSU looked good against them, but on the other hand FAU can make anybody look good.  I was impressed with their losing performance against Houston.  Houston looked very sharp.  There offense can definitely score, but i think their D is a litte suspect.  Special teams I think we are pretty much equal.   I guess time will tell.
