Kevin Peterson should be ready for the opener. (NewsOK)
“We’ve been talking about winning a Big 12 championship,” Rudolph said. “That’s the goal every year here, and once we get there, who knows what’s next?” Oklahoma State fans have hailed him as a prince, celebrated him as if he were a warrior. He has played three college games. (O’Colly)

Good feature here on Mike Yurcich and his wife. (O’Colly)
