pretty much I think they need to show they can play defense, which is what they have done so far tonight I think some voters would dismiss Okie State for their 107th ranked defense, and if they shot down OU tonight, they could get some of those voters to reconsider. In other words, 41-10 is better then 51-24
They are holding OU out of the end zone so far, but starting to give up some yards in between. Their O should be a good D by keeping OU's O off the field, but the OSU O has been a bit under-whelming so far. Still hopeful, however.
