On Tuesday in the Guaranteed Rate Bowl against Wisconsin, OSU looks to salvage a season that turned backward with injuries and resulted in many starters in the transfer portal.
Sam Hutchens Staff Reporter Oklahoma State’s bowl game is
not a marquee matchup. It isn’t played on New Year’s Day and it is not the culminations of one of OSU’s all-time best seasons. The game, the Guaranteed Rate Bowl against Wisconsin, matters to OSU because it is a glimpse into the new era. If the Cowboys want to get back to marquee matchups and January first games — 2021 things — they would
be well served to win against the Badgers to salvage some from a difficult season and set the tone entering the offseason. For Derek Mason, OSU’s firstyear defensive coordinator, the game will be a chance to experiment with his new-look defense. It will appear different because of a host of defensive departures in the transfer portal. Junior linebacker Mason Cobb, junior
defensive end Trace Ford and junior cornerback Jabbar Muhammad headline the departing group. Wisconsin is a good running team. Braelon Allen, the Badgers’ sophomore running back, has rushed for 1,126 yards and 10 touchdowns. The Cowboys have struggled against top backs. See For OSU on page 5
