Considering the Cowboys have nine players on it’s roster who have never played in a Big 12 game, Wednesday went about as well as expected.
Oklahoma State fell to Iowa State 69-63 in Gallagher-Iba Arena in a game that saw 56 3-pointers be shot. Four Cyclones combined for 61 points Cameron McGriff and Lindy Waters split 30 of the Cowboys’ points.
The Cowboys hung around and actually led 36-35 at halftime, but OSU led for only five minutes in the game. The Cowboys defense looked good, holding ISU to 36-percent shooting, but there are definitely some things the Pokes need to improve to be better than the 10th place they were projected.
