Same sport. Same conference. Same state. New Sportsman of the Week. The Big 12 has been a wide open offensive football league since the days of Mike Leach and Art Briles but there seems to be no bounds to the video game stats put up. And before you say it doesn't work against good defense, reminder that the conference went 4-2 in bowl games last year (losses to Georgia and Miami who turned out to be on the upswing). But back to the gridiron, Oklahoma State's senior quarterback Mason Rudolph is rolling through the meat of Big 12 play. This was the Cowboys' third ranked team in three weeks, 2 of 3 on the road. This week's stats were 25/31 for 376 yards and 3 TD in a key 49-42 victory over Iowa State. That's only 6 incompletions. Two of the TD came in the last 3 minutes as Oklahoma State scored the last 15 points of the game for the win. Even in the loss to Oklahoma last week, he threw for nearly 450 yards and 5 TD but came up short against last week's Sportsman of the Week. Rudolph would be right in the Heisman talk if not for the slinger from Norman. But he is our Sportsman of the Week!
