Why Oklahoma State can win the Sugar Bowl without a rushing attack

The OSU rushing attack is 108th in the nation, while the Ole Miss rush defense is ranked 27th. If the numbers are any indication of how the game will play out, Oklahoma State is going to need to find other ways to move the ball and score. Will the Pokes be able to do so?

Of course they will. They’ve been doing it all year. In Oklahoma State’s best win, the Cowboys rushed for 81 yards as a team against TCU, highlighted by Raymond Taylor’s 28 yards. When the Cowboys put up 70 points on Texas Tech, only 184 out of 662 total yards came on the ground.
