This is a take: I know Gundy favors low contact practices to avoid injuries but maybe it’s time to strap the pads on and let them knock each other around a bit. I think the Oklahoma Drill would be a great thing for this team. [HCS]

Previewing WVU
Robert Allen says if OSU falls behind by more than one score this weekend, it could be curtains: Never fall behind by more than one score. Oklahoma State has come back from double-digit deficits this season, but West Virginia is a different caliber opponent and you really don’t want to give them that kind of confidence to feed off of and deal with it on your bench, even though Oklahoma State is really good at dealing with the adversity.

Rudolph on Gundy getting No. 100 potentially this weekend: “We know it’s there. You never try to focus on anything other than what you can control, but we’re excited for coach. That’s a big milestone for him. So yeah, we definitely want to do it for him and do it for homecoming.” [NewsOK]
On this weekend: It all makes for as interesting a week as Oklahoma State has had this season. A win, and the Cowboys enter November as legitimate Big 12 contenders. And a loss all but eliminates OSU from the conference championship week. [Tulsa World]
This is great.

Lol.
Patrick Mahomes now leads the country in passing by 682 yards, and is averaging 99 yards more passing per game than any other QB nationally.

This is outrageous.
Pokes in the Pros
Tyreek Hill made a one-handed catch against the Saints on Sunday. [PFB]
Emmanuel Ogbah had a couple of sacks against the Bengals on Sunday. Awesome. [PFB]
More Stuff I’m Reading
Finished this novel over the weekend. It was really terrific until the end. Still a worthy read, but the ending was more Nathan Simmons up the middle than James Washington over the top. [GoodReads]
