@OCOLLY

Confidence, health key to Grogan’s success Nathan Ruiz @NathanSRuiz Ben Grogan wasn’t himself in 2013.

Grogan, Oklahoma State’s sophomore kicker, went 11for-18 on field goal attempts in that year. Each missed kick meant another dip in his confidence.

“He’d miss one or two, then you’d just see him on the sideline, keeping his head down,” OSU running back Desmond Roland said.

“It’d affect him for the rest of the season or thel next game.”

It didn’t make sense.

Grogan, the No. 9 kicker in his class according to Rivals. com, dazzled at Martin High School in Arlington, Texas. Partway through his junior season, Grogan took over as the Warriors’ starter for senior Jaden Oberkrom, who’s earned All-Big 12 Honorable Mention the past two seasons as TCU’s placekicker.

Martin coach Bob Wager gave three reasons for the switch: performance, work ethic and attitude. “(Grogan) trains like a

linebacker,” Wager said. “Either in-season or offseason, you couldn’t differentiate between he and any other position player. He’s an all-in guy.”

Part of Martin’s playbook involved faking extra point attempts by shifting formations, which often led Grogan playing offensive tackle, where he didn’t hesitate to serve as a blocker.

“He’s a gem,” Wager said.

“He’s a great teammate.”

This season, Grogan began by missing three of his first five field goal attempts.

Suddenly, Grogan is meeting the expectations he took with him to Stillwater.

Grogan has made 10 field goals in a row. His longest streak his freshman season was four.

“I’d say I’m pretty confident right now, definitely, with my snapper and holder, as well,” Grogan said. “… I think, as a kicker, especially once you’ve gotten into the season, it’s pretty important because it’s kind of a muscle memory thing as far as the physical aspect, so being confident, I think, is a big, big part of it.”

His teammates believe in him, too.

“I feel a lot more confi-

dent,” Roland said. “He’s been making a lot more plays this season. I don’t remember the last time he missed a field goal. He’s been working hard in practice.

They’ve been putting in extra work, and it’s paying off for him. I’m real proud of him.”

Wager said Grogan was “supremely” confident when he’d kick a field goal or extra point attempt at Martin.

“I think confidence comes from preparation,” he said.

“There was never a footballrelated exercise, including blocking and tackling, that Ben Grogan didn’t participate in. … I think his great confidence came from knowing that he was extremely well-prepared.”

So, what caused the confident Ben Grogan’s issues in 2013? His health.

Grogan said he dealt with a minor tear in the labrum of his right hip last season, which affected both the distance and accuracy of his kicks. He had been aware of the injury, but could handle the pain up until the Cowboys’ homecoming game against TCU. “Up until that point, it was just like something was nagging,” Grogan said. “It wasn’t terrible, but I knew

RACHAEL MALTBY/O’COLLY

Ben Grogan (right) leads the Big 12 with 58 points and has also hit the most field goals.

something was going on.”

Healthier now, Grogan said the injury still hampers him on a “day-to-day” basis.

He goes to the training room about three days a week to do maintenance on his hip. OSU strength and condition coach Rob Glass got the team’s kickers involved in workouts focused on improving leg and hip strength.

“I can really only feel it when I’m following through,” Grogan said. “It’s just kind of a pulling, like it gets caught on something.

Last year, it would limit my

O’COLLY WEEKEND EDITION

range of motion more and feel more painful, but after rehab and stuff, now, I can do my full range of motion and get everything done I need to get done without it being too painful.”

Although Grogan pins his freshman struggles on the hip injury, he said he can’t simply toss the numbers aside.

“I let them go, but I don’t forget,” he said. “I’ve got to keep working. They kind of motivate me, I guess.”

Grogan is already working to overcome last season’s numbers. Just 4-for-10 in

his career on attempts more than 40 yards, the remainder of the season could be a chance to show off the leg strength he developed growing up in Texas playing a different sport.

Grogan played soccer in addition to football. He started soccer when he was 4 years old and continued through his sophomore year of high school, quitting because he realized football was a better avenue for him to continue his athletic career at college.

‘Gone Girl’ among David Fincher’s best Brandon Schmitz @SchmitzReviews

Director David Fincher’s fascination with the nastier parts of the human mind has led to some of my favorite crime-mystery films, including “Zodiac” and “The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.”

And though I’ll have to see how well “Gone Girl” stacks up to multiple viewings, Fincher’s latest might be his best.

A faithful adaptation of Gillian Flynn’s 2012 novel, the movie follows Nick Dunne (Ben Affleck), who, on his fifth wedding anniversary, discovers that his wife, Amy (Rosamund Pike), has gone missing.

Nick’s unusual behavior, coupled with a handful of lies, makes him the target of not only a police investigation, but also intense media scrutiny.

It’s tough to discuss “Gone Girl” without spoiling its plot, for the main “gotcha!” moment occurs midway through the film.

A lot of the appeal comes from knowing the twist, yet I’m glad the film’s marketing team withheld that information in the trailers. I’ll tread lightly.

A sign of any great mystery-thriller is when the movie lets its audience play detective. There’s something inherently gripping about piecing the facts together and taking what anybody says with a grain of salt.

Speaking of which, this movie is a scathing indictment of tabloid journalism.

Seriously, watching the media manipulate the public’s perception of Nick is haunting in its accuracy.

I’d be lying, though, if I said it wasn’t darkly funny.

One of the most pleasant surprises of this film is its subtle, yet frequent, humor.

Although, given the subject matter, this could have easily derailed the movie’s tone. The dialogue often feels like natural conversation.

Of course, that’s largely because of “Gone Girl’s”

stellar cast. To anyone who’s still on the fence about Affleck being cast as Batman, this movie highlights his acting chops.

His portrayal of Nick is pompous enough to raise suspicion, yet awkward enough to keep the audience guessing.

Carrie Coon dominates the screen as Margo, Nick’s twin sister and voice of reason. I’m surprised this is her first role in a full-length film; despite the rest of the talent involved, her performance shouldn’t fly under the radar. Casting directors, hire this woman.

Here’s something I thought I would never say: Tyler Perry is fantastic in this movie.

His turn as Nick’s witty, quick-on-his-feet lawyer, Tanner Bolt, is easily the best performance of his career. C’mon, Perry, do more of these roles.

Neil Patrick Harris has been the most polarizing of the bunch, for some found him too distracting.

Maybe this is because of my limited exposure to his work — “Harold and

MA_CO2013/FLICKR

“Gone Girl” is based on Gillan Flynn’s 2012 novel of the same name.

Kumar” and a couple of episodes of “How I Met Your Mother” is about as far as it goes for me — but I thought he delivered the creep factor brilliantly.

The standout, though, is Pike, for reasons I’m reluctant to mention for fear of spoiling parts of the story. I’ll just say she’s chilling. Oscar season is still young, but she’s virtually guaranteed to

get a Best Lead Actress nomination.

“Gone Girl” is sure to be one of the most talked about films of the rest of the year; it’s definitely among my favorites. Yeah, it sort of plays out like a trashy soap opera, but with Fincher’s direction and such a talented cast, this one’s a winner. news@ocolly.com

JACKIE’S 6-PACK: OKTOBERFEST Jackie Dobson @OColly It’s no surprise the world’s biggest festival features some of the world’s best things: beer, brats and scantily clad women.

The 181st Oktoberfest was held this year in Munich, Germany, and hosted more than 6 million people from around the world, according to Munich’s official state website.

Before the beer and other festivities, there was a royal wedding, the wedding that

started it all.

Crown Prince Ludwig and Princess Therese of SaxonyHildburghausen were married on Oct. 12, 1810, and invited the whole city for a celebration.

This celebration became a tradition with horse racing and beer for refreshments. It eventually evolved into what we know today as the Oktoberfest around the 1830s.

Since then, the festival has inspired copy cats across the globe, including a locale close to home.

Tulsa hosts an Oktoberfest every year. This one involves all the usuals — the beer, the food

Leinenkugel Oktoberfest

— as well as a Dachshund dash and live music.

It takes place Oct. 16-19.

Admission is $6 a day. For more details, visit tulsaoktoberfest.org.

I used this week’s six pack to have a little Oktoberfest of my own.

I chose six different breweries that take on this traditional German brew and gave them a go. I was surprised to find they were all very different.

So here they are, now go celebrate beer. And remember: Please drink responsibly. news@ocolly.com

Sam Adams Oktoberfest

The first Oktoberfest was held in the 1830s.

DR. DARK/FLICKR

Santa Fe Brewing Oktoberfest

This is my surprise of the week. I wasn’t expecting much out of this. I expect Leinenkugel to be great at fruity beers, and I thought this would be overdone. It wasn’t. I loved it — from the aroma to the smooth, rich body you expect from an Oktoberfest. This hit the nail on the head.

This brew has always been a staple in my fall beer choices, but if I’m being honest, things might be changing. Although Sam Adams offers a neverfaltering smoothness and great seasonal selections, it falls short to most of the beers I had this week. Still good, but maybe not my go-to anymore.

If you don’t pick this up just for the design of the can alone, then pick it up for the freshest flavor I’ve found in a store-bought beer. I’ve had this brew straight out of the brewery tap and out of the can months after purchasing it. If you put them side by side, there would be no difference at all.

Widmer Brother Okto Festival Ale

Shiner Oktoberfest

Paulaner Oktoberfest

This was the sweetest of the Oktoberfest varieties that I tried. It wasn’t something that filled you up after half a bottle either, which I find to be true about most Oktoberfest beers. And don’t worry, the sweetness of this beer doesn’t take away from the rich hoppiness that you crave.

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 10, 2014

The best part about this beer was opening it, and I don’t mean it didn’t taste amazing. The aroma that shoots out of this bottle is to die for. I might write Yankee Candle and have them make a new scent.

Although not at strong as the first smell, this beer has a bold flavor and manageable thickness for any beerdrinker to enjoy.

O’COLLY WEEKEND EDITION

This is the only beer I didn’t enjoy. Its bitterness takes away from the rich, boldness of an Oktoberfest. I expected to like a traditional German brew more than this. I guess I like American beer better. So if you’re going to attend next year’s festival I would drink this. It comes from Germany and is probably closest to what you’ll drink there, unfortunately.

Cowgirls look for edge to win competitive Big 12 Connor Nybo @connornybo Thus far, the 2014 campaign has had its fair share of ups and downs for the Oklahoma State Cowgirls.

The team has been through seemingly countless injuries, winning streaks, losing streaks — all against formidable competition. This puts the team at a crucial point in the season, going up against TCU and Baylor this weekend in Stillwater. “(These games) are probably pivotal,” OSU coach Colin Carmichael said. “You know if you lose one or both, the season’s not over. Having said that, they’re both very important to us.”

The Cowgirls (6-7-1), coming off a road loss and tie to Kansas and Texas Tech, respectively, sit in the middle of the pack among a very competitive Big 12, but still have a good opportunity to make a run in the second half of the season going toward the Big 12 tournament.

“The Big 12 is so up this year,” Carmichael said. “We have five of the top 25 RPI and seven of the top 40.”

If the team is to make such a run, mental toughness and consistency are critical, in addition to merely catching a break in close games.

“If we can combine that 90 minutes of hard, concentrated play with a little bit of quality, that should be the next step for us,” Carmichael

said.

The aforementioned concentration is one factor that the Cowgirls may have been lacking at various points in the season. Carmichael has

mentioned the lack of one absolute vocal leader of the team throughout the year as a possible reason behind the occasional gap in concentration.

JACKIE DOBSON/O’COLLY

Rosa Medina is second in the Big 12 with 4.5 saves per game.

But one player who has continued to be especially vocal on the field is goalkeeper Rosa Medina.

“She is a really good leader,” redshirt freshman Niki McKnight said of her keeper. “She’ll always jump on our butts if we mess up, and she’s just a good presence in the back.”

Medina feels comfortable in the vocal role she plays on the team, especially considering her continuingly exceptional play on the field.

“It’s always been a natural role for me,” Medina said.

“I think I’ve always been an extroverted personality. It’s easier to be a leader when I’m leading my friends and teammates.” sports@ocolly.com

From OSU Communications

October 10, 2014

SPARKING SCIENTIFIC IMAGINATION Delivering drug treatments to the eye on a contact lens, studying the potential of prosthetic limbs that connect directly to human nerves, designing unmanned aerial vehicles that can perch on a tree limb like a bird -- the projects sound like groundbreaking research pursued by nationally recognized scientists assisted by small armies of graduate assistants. Instead, these are just a few of the research projects being conducted by Oklahoma State University undergraduates who are receiving an $8,000 scholarship as part of the Niblack Research Scholars program.

Made possible by OSU alumnus Dr. John Niblack, the program gives undergrads a chance to work on frontline research in university labs alongside faculty and graduate student mentors. For many Niblack scholars, the program opens the door to a world of scientific investigation that most would not experience until graduate school.

Most say their time as Niblack scholars cemented their path to becoming scientists.

Here is a brief look at three of the scholars. To watch videos of all the winners, go to niblack.okstate.edu.

Rachel Davis, a

chemical engineering major from Fort Smith, Ark., is studying the development of a drug delivery system that can be fitted onto a contact lens to administer drug treatments to the back of the eye.

The Niblack Research Scholars program has given Davis a direction to follow in her science education.

“I knew that beginning research into biomedical engineering would help me decide what it is that I want to do with my future,” she said.

Brett Johnson is studying a fungus that limits ethanol production from native switchgrass.

Pathogens, like the fungus switchgrass rust, are some of the biggest roadblocks to successfully producing biomass from grasses. A horticulture major from Stillwater, Johnson is interested in a career breeding plants for disease resistance.

“I’m going to be able to learn about the entire process of taking something from the idea stage and actually coming up with valuable results,” Johnson said.

Nadir Nibras, a mechanical engineering student from Bangladesh, grew up in a large city where the suffering of people with severe disabilities could be seen on nearly every street corner.

“From a very young age I have had a soft spot for people who are disabled,” Nibras said. “So I’ve always wanted to do something about that and when I found out I could through biomedical engineering, I thought this is it. This is what I want to do.”

ABOUT THE DONOR

BIG HAPPENINGS

When Dr. John Niblack was an OSU undergraduate in the late 1950s, he landed a job helping a professor with laboratory research.

That job set his future in motion.

OSU’s Native American Student Association will hold a Fall Contest Powwow starting at noon Saturday at the Payne County Fairgrounds Expo Center. The free event is one of the largest events held by NASA. The Grand Entry will begin at 6:30 p.m. For a complete schedule, visit http://bit.ly/1qi76tx.

“It was probably what caused me to become a professional scientist,” said Niblack, who spent his career working as a researcher and an executive for the pharmaceutical company Pfizer Inc.

GAME GUIDE: KANSAS Kieran’s Keys Rock Chalk roadblock

1

One of the things Kansas does better than OSU is running the ball.

The Jayhawks average 167.8 yards per game (compared to 163.2 for OSU). The Cowboys’ rush defense needs to contain the running game.

Running the ball eats at the clock and keeps the OSU offense off the field.

Intermediate importance

2

This is a good game for quarterback Daxx Garman to tune his game before the schedule becomes really difficult. Garman struggles with accuracy on intermediate throws. OSU can’t win games against the likes of TCU, OU, Kansas State and Baylor with Garman only being able to throw deep passes at a high rate.

3

This is a classic ‘trap game’ for OSU. It’s easy to overlook Kansas with the No. 9 team in the country waiting for the Cowboys next week.

The TCU game next week means a lot less if OSU can’t take care of Kansas.

4 indie films worth watching ‘

Miles Clements @MilesDailyMovie

‘BOYHOOD’ Richard Linklater’s unveiled his independent 12year project “Boyhood” this year and captivated viewers everywhere.

Unlike the majority of popular independent achievements, “Boyhood” is looking at a best picture nomination at the Oscars this year.

Linklater takes 12 years of footage and creates a singular narrative through the eyes of an adolescent boy, Mason (Ellar Coltrane), who literally grows up as the film

progresses.

It’s a truly authentic cinematic experiment for the ages. It doesn’t just highlight childhood development, it’s an ode to parenting and the constant complications and fulfillment of raising kids.

Linklater’s success is a testament to the flourishing state of the independent film market. Here are a few indie treats to watch at home.

‘CLOUD ATLAS’ Since the release of “Cloud Atlas” in 2012, many critics have tried to dissect the film, but like any elegant piece of art, the true experience is original to the viewer.

Even so, “Cloud Atlas” wants us to find a meaning in the pile of overbearing

rhetoric. Six stories overlap each other between 1849 and 2346, where the actors play several different roles and genders within each story.

Based on David Mitchell’s novel of the same name, “Cloud Atlas” makes one thing clear, there is an echoing concept that our lives are all connected by the desire for liberation.

The narrative is complex, told in order but then cycled backward. It can prove to be burdensome for many, but the immense scope and gravity of the film cannot be avoided.

With a budget of more than $100 million, Cloud Atlas is one of the most expensive independent films

to date.

‘SAMSARA’ “Samsara” jumps from one culture to the next, capturing the vast range of humankind and the world we inhabit.

This image-driven documentary might have convoluted messages, but the gorgeous visuals make up for any of the narrative defects.

Fricke filmed this piece over the course of five years and 25 countries, relying on imagery instead of dialogue.

“Samsara” documents the far corners of the world, whether it’s dangerous disaster zones, indigenous societies or natural wonders.

It’s an impressive spectacle, but more importantly, “Samsara” is a vacation from

the standard movie. I love getting lost in transfixing films attempting to bridge cultural gaps.

‘HOLY MOTORS’ Overwhelmingly strange and consistently erratic, “Holy Motors” is something viewers won’t soon forget.

It’s visually entrancing and carries a challenging narrative that’s easy to overlook in favor of its stylistic imagery.

The viewer is thrown into the life of Monsieur Oscar, a puzzling character who aimlessly jumps from one life to the next. One hour he’s an assassin, and after a trip in a seemingly ordinary limousine, he’s a captain of industry. Roles are being played, but who is the man

behind the many crafts?

Every once in a while we are reminded that filmmakers are still capable of finding obscure ways to be obscure.

“Holy Motors” is like a crossword puzzle that’s more fun to play than solve. news@ocolly.com

Grogan: grogan played through a partially torn hip labrum in his freshman year.

From Page 2 “I was kind of worried,” Grogan said. “I didn’t want to risk getting hurt playing soccer, then not be able to kick in football. It was just an opportunity to get recruited.”

Grogan began playing football in the seventh grade, but not completely by choice.

“It was either play football or be in P.E.,” he said. “And I didn’t want to be in P.E.” The team was looking for someone with soccer experience to kick, and Grogan was the guy.

Soccer also helped Grogan build the leg strength to

handle field goals of more than 50 yards, which were commonplace for him in high school.

On Oct. 19, 2012, Grogan went 6-for-6 on field goals against North Crowley, including two attempts of 52 yards and another of 56.

“It’s crazy,” Wager said.

“The 50-yard field goal for Ben Grogan here was routine, as crazy as that is. That was kind of the mindset.”

That game might have been what created interest in Grogan, who received offers from OSU, Memphis and Kansas, the Cowboys’ opponent Saturday.

But going to OSU “felt right for me,” Grogan said.

The success that former OSU kickers Dan Bailey and Quinn Sharp had at the university influenced Grogan’s decision, too.

“I look up to them just

’cause they were successful, and I think it’s a good opportunity to follow in their footsteps,” Grogan said.

“Obviously, trying to follow after them, there’s a little bit of pressure, but I think being that they’ve done well here, obviously, that shows that you can do well here.”

Grogan kicked in KU’s Memorial Stadium while he was recruited, which he said should help make him more comfortable in Saturday’s game.

His hope, though, is to be comfortable for the remainder of the season … and not miss a field goal.

“I really would just like to keep making all of them really,” he said. “Obviously, that’s what any kicker wants.

Just to do my job and help the team out.” sports@ocolly.com
