ESPN star Kirk Herbstreit likes OSU’s chances Saturday night to upend (and upset) Boise State on the road as a slight underdog, but he’s one of the few who think that the Broncos will be bucked on their own blue turf. Herbstreit picked the Pokes along with Lee Corso while Saquon Barkley and Desmond Howard both picked Boise State.
“I’m gonna go with Oklahoma State,” Herbstreit said. “I think their defense will be the difference in the game.”
OSU won 59% of the fan vote, giving it a 3-2 edge in the College Gameday panel ahead of Saturday night’s 8 p.
