In an outing reminiscent of those times at the Colvin Center where your final three intramural players were running late to a Monday night game because of a too-long accounting test, Oklahoma State fell to Iowa State 73-59 at Hilton Coliseum. The accounting test, it turns out, will last the rest of the season.
The Pokes were playing their first game without the dismissed trio of Maurice Calloo, Michael Weathers and Kentrevious Jones on Saturday. Despite head coach Mike Boynton substituting like a hockey manager for most of the evening, OSU didn’t have enough gas at the end to keep up with an Iowa State team that is now 14-4 and near the top of the Big 12 standings.
