One thing we do as sports fans that’s annoying at best and irresponsible at worst is try and determine trajectory based on a single game, possession or month of play. I am the chief culprit here on pretty much every front given that having a website like this lends itself to, well, doing that very thing. And sometimes it works out. Sometimes you’re right. But oftentimes — almost all of the time — it’s best to try and glean takeaways by pulling back and looking at the bigger picture.
For Oklahoma State, that bigger picture has almost always looked rosy during the Mike Gundy era.
