Oklahoma State Cowboys Game Notes
Alan Bowman completed 28 of 42 passes for 334 yards during Saturday’s 27-24 victory against Oklahoma. He also had one rush for 13 yards with one touchdown.
Bowman pulled off an impressive upset of the Sooners behind his second 300-yard passing game. His only score came on a 13-yard rush, for his second touchdown on the ground this year. It was a complete game for the transfer quarterback who has a ton of confidence right now. Bowman is an excellent play at UCF next week.
UCF Knights Game Notes
John Rhys Plumlee was 13-for-23 passing for 165 yards during Saturday’s 28-26 win versus Cincinnati. He also had 13 rushes for 53 yards with one touchdown.
Plumlee added a rushing score in his third straight game as UCF won their first Big 12 conference game. It was also the third time this year that he didn’t commit a turnover as that has been a problem for the star quarterback this season. He’ll look to build on this momentum against Oklahoma State next week.

Oklahoma State vs. UCF Betting Prediction
Take Oklahoma State. I know this is a chalky play given what the Cowboys did last weakened against OU but UCF hasn’t been impressive in Big 12 play this season. They lost 44-31 to Kansas State. They lost by a point to a bad Baylor team at home. They were hammered by Kansas, 51-22. They fell to Oklahoma by two and dropped a 41-28 matchup to West Virginia.
The Knights’ lone win in Big 12 play? Versus fellow newcomer Cincinnati last weekend and they didn’t even cover as a 3.5-point road favorite. The Cowboys might need a quarter to get focused again, but they should eventually start rolling.
Oklahoma State vs. UCF Prediction: OKLAHOMA STATE COWBOYS -2.5
