Mason Rudolph rushed down the field, desperate to celebrate with his teammates. He flailed his arms in the air. He looked to the sky, yelling. The Oklahoma State sideline mimicked him. It was as if a weight had come off the undefeated Cowboys’ shoulders. All of the talk of them being a fluke. All of the polls putting them too low. All of the criticisms related to their nail-biting wins. It all seemed to disappear after Rudolph, the Cowboys’ sophomore quarterback, threw his fourth touchdown pass of the game in leading Oklahoma State to a 49-29 victory against TCU in a battle of unbeaten teams. It had been 391 days, 56 weeks and 16 games since TCU lost a football game. The Cowboys reset the counters. Rudolph and then No. 14 OSU (9-0, 6-0 Big 12) asserted itself as a Big 12 and College Football Playoff contender by handling the then No. 8 Horned Frogs (8-1, 5-1) from start to finish. “I’m really proud of our team,” OSU coach Mike Gundy said. “… It was a great win for us, obviously. I’m really proud of everyone in the program. I MONDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 2015
single contest. Meanwhile, the OSU defense displayed the same dominance it had all season, only on a far bigger stage. It allowed nine points in TCU’s first nine drives. Horned Frogs quarterback Trevone Boykin, considered a Heisman Trophy contender for much of the season, couldn’t match Rudolph’s performance. The senior attempted 57 passes, completing 35 for 445 yards. He threw four interceptions, setting a career-high, and only one less Kurt Steiss/O’COLLY than he had thrown all season Oklahoma State sophomore quarterback Mason Rudolph led the Cowboys to a 49-29 defeat of TCU on Satentering the game. urday.

Opinion: Eyes of the nation on Stillwater after thrashing of TCU
Chandler Vessels Sp o rt s R e p o rt e r @ChandlerVessels
Trevone Boykin watched as Chad Whitener sprinted past, football in hand. Moments before, Boykin threw the ball, desperate to rally his Horned Frogs from a 13-point deficit. But Whitener got in the way. He caught the ball and then took it 42 yards to the opposite end zone. It was Boykin’s fourth interception of the day, almost matching his season total of five heading into the game. The scoreboard told the story: Oklahoma State led 49-29 with 44 seconds left. It was over. TCU’s 16-game winning streak? Snapped. Its explosive offense? Extinguished. Its College Football Playoff hopes? Gone. The epitaph was written for TCU Saturday, but OSU managed to do what it has been doing all season: stay alive. But Saturday’s win was much more than OSU continuing to scrape by. The Cowboys demolished one of the top teams in the country. They made a Heisman Trophy candidate play his worst game all season. The message is clear: No MONDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 2015
TREVOR GREER/O’COLLY With its 49-29 victory against TCU, Oklahoma State asserted itself as one of the top teams in the nation. The Cowboys still have to face Iowa State, Baylor and Oklahoma, but they are deserving of plenty of national spotlight.
longer can anyone discount the Oklahoma State Cowboys in the College Football Playoff race. Ranked 14th in the first poll of the season last week, buried under a bevy of oneloss teams, it’s clear nobody outside of Stillwater took the Cowboys seriously. Why would they? Before Saturday, the Cowboys had not beaten a ranked opponent. With the exception of Kansas, each of their conference games was won in the waning minutes. Week by week, they
were merely avoiding elimination. In the eyes of many, they were lucky. The first touchdown pass Saturday from Mason Rudolph to James Washington? Chalk it up to luck again. The second? All right, maybe this team is better than given credit for. But by the third, there was no questioning it. You were witnessing one of the best teams in the country. By no means does this make the Cowboys a lock for the College Football Playoff. With Iowa State, Baylor and OCOLLY.COM
Oklahoma ahead, the journey is far from over. But it will force the eyes of the nation to glance toward Stillwater. It makes Saturday’s game in Ames, Iowa, a lot more interesting. In 2011, the Cowboys also entered a road matchup with Iowa State undefeated. The parallels will be drawn. It will likely be overdone. But for the first time all season, the nation will care about a game because OSU is playing in it. When the final second ticked off the clock Saturday,
the players and coaches headed toward the locker room. But per postgame tradition, they stopped by the student section to embrace and sing the alma mater. “Proud and immortal, bright shines your name. Oklahoma State, we herald your fame.” The Cowboys are not immortal yet, and they might never be. But on Saturday, they became one game closer. opinion@ocolly.com

Campus challenged to help build wells in Rwanda Carlie Hasty Staf f R e p o rt e r @ o c o l ly
Students across campus are being challenged to drink water to give water. This week, the Oklahoma State chapter of the Wells Project, a national student-run organization, is hosting the 10 Days event. The 10 Days event, Nov. 9-18, is a time for students to pledge and donate the amount of money they would normally spend on drinks, other than water, during the span of a week. The money raised will build water wells in Ruhango, Rwanda. Will Bruhn, OSU Wells Project president and pre-med finance senior, said the organization hits close to home for him. “I’ve been to Africa with my church before, and I have seen the trouble that these communities have to go through just to have clean water,” Bruhn said. “When I got to OSU as a sophomore, I
heard about the Wells Project and knew I had to be a part of it.” Although the organization hosts many benefit events throughout the school year, including a concert in the spring, November marks an important week and a half. “With some help from Beta Theta Pi and the rest of the executive board, we have set big goals for ourselves,” Bruhn said. “This year, we are planning to raise $15,000.” The Wells Project has already received $7,000 in pledges, which exceeds last year’s goal of $7,000 for the whole week, Bruhn said. 10 Days, and other special events through the Wells Project, has nationally raised more than $247,000 in the past two years, according to the 10 Days website. “We set the bar high because we know how important it is for these people to have clean water,” Bruhn said. “The first time I did Photo courtesy of Living Water International it, I was shocked at how much The 10 Days event, which takes place on campus Nov. 9-18, gives students the opportunity to donate the monI depended on all of these other ey normally spent on drinks, other than water.

Payne County District Attorney filed a motion on Friday in an attempt to seal the mental health records of the driver accused
of killing four at Oklahoma State’s homecoming pachambers rade. District Attorney Laura Thomas submitted the motion alleging Adacia Chambers’ attorney, Tony Coleman, filed an application for determination of competency, attaching a “confidential and privileged report,” which included information

about the defendant’s mental health, according to the document. On Nov. 4, Coleman submitted to the court a copy of a letter addressed to him from Shawn Roberson, a forensic psychologist, declaring Chambers not fit to stand trial. Thomas noted the only reason to include the report would be the desire to have it disseminated to the public and regarded the actions of the defense
as a “deliberate and inappropriate effort by Counsel to prejudice any jury pool.” In the document, Thomas deems the release of the report a violation of the defendant’s rights, as she could not approve the report containing the confidential information. Thomas wrote that the document, “Order at the Hearing of the Application of Determination of Compe-

tency,” filed on Oct. 26 was to permit a psychological evaluation, not determine competency. The application was only a request for a doctor to have access to the defendant to perform a psychological evaluation, according to Thomas. She requested the order to be clarified and reflect it was an order granting access to the defendant for a psychological evaluation. Thomas also wrote that Coleman approached her on Oct. 27 inquiring about changing venue, a dis-
cussion she considered “clearly premature.” The state requested the court admonish Coleman and any future filings related to mental health or containing mental health records be subject to court scrutiny and order before being available to the public. Chambers, a Stillwater resident, is charged with four counts of seconddegree murder and 46 counts of assault and battery by means or force likely to produce death. news@ocolly.com
