As you enjoy this weekend’s battle between opposing shades of orange, here are three numbers to watch that will go along way toward deciding which team is still in the Big 12 hunt and which isn’t.
Oklahoma State’s defense is dead-last in the Big 12 and 113th nationally in third-down defense. The Cowboys are giving up a first down on 45 percent of those plays for the year and you can place the blame on two specific outings.
| 3rd-Down Defense | Comp/Att | Conversion Rate |
|---|---|---|
| Against Tulsa and TCU | 24/45 | 60. |
