AMES, Iowa — Mike Gundy rankled the masses again this week. Not by how his Oklahoma State Cowboys played in a 45-27 loss to Baylor. That was last week.
This week, Gundy said the OSU program was on “as good a ground as it’s ever been.”
That’s not what Cowboy fans needed to hear, fresh off the images of JaMycal Hasty and Tyquan Thornton and Josh Fleeks running unencumbered through huge patches of Payne County pastures. Five Baylor plays broke for at least 44 yards, including four of at least 63 yards. The Bears looked like sixth-grade infidels at fourth-grade recess.
