Missouri vs Oklahoma State Preview
After a 4-1 start, the Cowboys stumbled through the rest of the season, winning just two of their remaining seven games.
“It’s been an unusual season for us from the standpoint (that) we turned over a lot of veteran players,” Oklahoma State head coach Mike Gundy said, according to STATS LLC. “And we had a new quarterback who has played very well most of the year. The couple games he didn’t play well in, we didn’t win, which is kind of the way it is. It’s the head coach and the quarterback’s fault, it’s always been that way, but our team can be very competitive.”
Senior quarterback Taylor Cornelius, in his first season as a starter, has completed 59.3 percent of his passes for 3,637 yards, 28 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions. He’s also rushed for 385 yards and 10 more scores.
The quarterback struggled in the team’s most recent tilt, a 31-24 loss to TCU. Cornelius completed just 17 of his 40 passes for 181 yards, no touchdowns, and an interception.
“It’s crazy how we can play one week, and the next week we don’t play very well,” Gundy said, according to The O’Colly. “I don’t have the answer. It’s the dangest thing I’ve ever seen. We play teams that are top-10 in the country, and we play like a top-20 team. We play teams that are not playing as well and struggling, and we play like a top-80 team.
“And I know someone’s gonna say, ‘Well, do you know why?’ If I knew why, I would fix it.”
The Cowboys were coming off a 45-41 win over No. 9 West Virginia.
“It’s just kinda disappointing, you know?” Gundy said, per the paper. “I was concerned about whether we could rally back after a big win last week. We were a little flat early in the week, but then we practiced good and finished strong.”
Mizzou, the Cowboys’ former Big 12 foes, closed their season with four straight wins, including a victory over No. 11 Florida.
In their last regular season matchup, they shut out the Arkansas Razorbacks 38-0.
Senior quarterback Drew Lock went 16-of-25 for 221 yards, two touchdowns, and no picks. He also ran two for touchdowns.
On the season, he’s completed 63.2 percent of his passes for 3,125 yards, 25 touchdowns, and eight interceptions. He’s expected to be one of the first quarterbacks selected in the upcoming NFL draft.
“He’s done a heck of a job of being Drew, being what we need him to be and playing really well at a high level,” Tigers head coach Barry Odom said after the win over Arkansas, according to the Associated Press. “He left his mark.”
