Bedlam is set up to be another weird and wacky game.
No. 7 Oklahoma (10-1, 7-1) will travel just an hour to take on No. 21 Oklahoma State (8-3, 5-3) in its annual in-state rivalry.
Both head coaches had their press conferences to preview Saturday’s game.
Here is what Oklahoma State head coach Mike Gundy had to say about the Cowboys’ upcoming game against Oklahoma.
ON THE CHALLENGE OF FACING JALEN HURTS
“You got to play five-on-five, six-on-six or seven-on-seven because of the willingness for them to run him and his willingness to run and he’s an extra guy. And sometimes against them, because they are triple option—you can watch the tape—the back comes here and he blocks, they fake to the other back, he goes up and block and (Hurts) runs the ball. That’s just triple option. In most cases, they are going to have equal numbers. So you have to be able to get off blocks and you got to be able to tackle. That’s what it comes down to. The more I watched it, I kept thinking, ‘There’s only one guy that ever touches the ball,’ and it’s him. He’s a one-man show.”
ON CEEDEE LAMB:
“He’s a good player. You can tell they missed him in the Baylor game. He’s an explosive player. Preseason, they threw it to him down the field. Once you got into the league play, where guys know each other, caught a lot of underneath routes, tweeners and a little bit of cross-country stuff. Good player.”
