00:00Now we go to what should be a more frequent rivalry than it is. The last

00:07meeting between two schools that are only two and a half hours apart driving

00:11it's Oklahoma State and Arkansas. That last matchup way back in 1980. Both

00:17playing FCS foes in week number one but different calibers. The Pokes really

00:22good, Kev, against the two-time reigning FCS national title winners in South

00:26Dakota State. They went 44 to 20. Ollie Gordon II looks like OG too.

00:31126 yards and three touchdowns on the ground and they knock off the Jack

00:36Rabbits 44 to 20 easily covering as a 12 and a half point favorite. 2024 for

00:41Arkansas a good debut under Sam Pittman. 70 zip over Arkansas Pine Bluff. The

00:48Razorbacks one of 13 FBS schools to shut out an opponent in week number one.

00:53Nine and a half points spread in favor of the Cowboys. How you feeling? My

00:56Oklahoma State Cowboys today in a great spot here. I really like them in this

01:00spot and I love Ollie Gordon. Let me just say this, get in before it is too late.

01:05Ollie Gordon Heisman is 60 to 1. You know what Ollie Gordon's rushing prop is

01:10today against an SEC team? 130 and a half. Ollie Gordon is going to put up a

01:17monstrous statistical season and all my Oklahoma State Cowboys need to do is

01:22get into that Big 12 title game and you'll be glad you bet it. Now Joe, what

01:26do you like in this? I will say this, this is becoming one of my favorite

01:31games of the day because I really love them tonight. Here's the biggest thing.

01:37Throw out last week's performance against Arkansas Pine Bluff. It comes

01:40down to the physicality, in my opinion, offensive-defensive lines. We talked

01:44about it all week. Arkansas averages 321 pounds on the

01:50offensive line, 260 for the defensive front for Oklahoma State. I know about

01:54Ollie Gordon. I'm sitting on a 75 to 1 ticket with Big Ollie, but I'll tell you

01:58what, Jaquindon action Jackson. That's the difference. He rushed for well over 80

02:05yards in regards to that matchup. The physicality of the SEC offensive line

02:09and Talon Green is a very good quarterback in this scheme. Threw for

02:13well over 60% of his passes, 200 yards. They threw for 400 and Alan

02:18Bowman, guys, still is the Achilles heel for that offense. This game goes down to

02:23the wire. I will say this, trend is for Oklahoma State 19 and 2 straight up over

02:28the past couple of seasons in Stillwater.
