Tigers take on Cowboys in top-25 matchup in Columbia
Columbia, MO (Sports Network) - While the eyes of the college football world will be focused on Dallas this weekend and the matchup between Texas and Oklahoma, there is another matchup within the Big 12 that should garner attention as well, as the 17th-ranked Oklahoma State Cowboys take on the third-ranked Missouri Tigers in a key cross-divisional clash in Columbia.The Tigers continue to climb the national rankings with each impressive victory, including last week's 52-17 pasting of Nebraska in Lincoln. The victory was a triumphant start to Big 12 play and moved Gary Pinkel's team to 5-0 on the season. It also represented the first road win over the Cornhuskers in 30 years.
The Cowboys are one of the real surprises in college football this year. Mike Gundy's squad is looking to go 6-0, as the team won its fifth straight game this year with last week's 56-28 pounding of Texas A&M. The Cowboys are now 5-0 for the first time since 2004 and just the third time since 1997.
Missouri has dominated this series since the inception of the Big 12, winning five of the six meetings since 1996, to take a 28-20 all-time lead. However, all but one of the games over that span have been decided by seven points or less, with three overtime affairs.
There is no secret to what the Cowboys like to do offensively. OSU enjoys moving the chains with a devastating ground attack, one that ranks second nationally at 315.2 yards per game. The result is an offense that ranks third nationally in scoring (52.6 ppg).
The team has already recorded 20 touchdowns on the ground in the first five games, led by sophomore tailback Kendall Hunter, who has abused opponents for 141.6 yards per game (7.0 ypc) and eight total TDs. Juniors Keith Toston (8.5 ypc, five TDs) and Beau Johnson (6.6 ypc, two TDs) add to a loaded backfield.
Quarterback Zac Robinson has also made his presence felt on the ground (158 yards, four TDs), but has kept foes guessing with great passing numbers as well. Robinson has completed over 72 percent of his passes this year, for 1,035 yards, with 10 TDs and just three INTs.
The top target in the vertical game is Dez Bryant. The 6-2 sophomore has been a touchdown machine. Of his team-leading 27 receptions, nine have resulted in scores, as Bryant is averaging a whopping 20.4 yards per reception and 110.0 yards per game.
With the kind of production coming from the offense, the OSU defense has been given somewhat of a free pass. The team has put up decent numbers, limiting foes to just 196.4 yards passing per game. The rush defense has had its ups and downs though, allowing 142.2 yards per game on 4.5 yards per carry.
A real area of concern, especially in this game, is a lack of a pass rush. The team has recorded just four sacks on the season and will need to get some pressure this week against Missouri's Heisman hopeful under center.
Junior linebacker Andre Sexton is the top defender thus far, pacing the team in tackles with 36 stops. He also has 2.5 TFLs and one of the team's four sacks. Fellow LB Orie Lemon is second in tackles with 29, followed by senior strong safety Ricky Price (21 tackles, one sack).
The Oklahoma State defense better be at the top of its game, as Missouri's offense will certainly take advantage of any miscues. The Tigers are also among the nation's top offensive teams, ranking second in scoring (53.4 ppg) and third in total offense (568.8 ypg). The ground attack is churning out 193.2 ypg (29th nationally), while the team also puts up 375.6 ypg passing (third nationally).
It all starts with Heisman frontrunner Chase Daniel. The veteran signal-caller has played lights out in 2008, completing a ridiculous 76.3 percent of his passes, for 1,665 yards, with 15 TDs and just one INT in 156 pass attempts. There is a number of targets Daniel finds down the field, led by tight end Chase Coffman (33 receptions, for 450 yards, three TDs) and All-American wideout Jeremy Maclin (31 receptions, for 480 yards, five TDs).
The ground game is an afterthought for most defensive coordinators, but it shouldn't be, as tailback Derrick Washington (7.5 yards per carry) will make foes pay. Washington is averaging an even 100 yards per game and has already scored 10 TDs, three of which came in last weekend's lopsided win at Nebraska.
Coach Pinkel expected that kind of effort from Washington.
"It's not a surprise to me at all. I knew this was going to happen, I just kind of sat back and let it happen. He's a really talented guy. He's mature. He's got a chance to be a high, high level running back. He's only started five games and you see what I see. The good news about him is he's just going to get a lot better...He's a very patient runner, and in our offense you have to be with the different things we do
Missouri's defense hasn't been tested much either this year thanks to the offense's scoring punch. The team is allowing 20.0 ppg, doing a nice job against the run (94.4 ypg), while showing some vulnerability against the pass (282.2 ypg). A lot of that has to do with teams being so far behind that they abandon their ground games and look to the air early and often to get back in the game.
Junior linebacker Sean Weatherspoon has been a real force this season, leading the team in tackles (57), TFLs (8.0) and interceptions (three), with 2.5 sacks. Strong safety Justin Garrett is a distant second in tackles (32), followed by middle linebacker Brock Christopher (30 tackles, 4.5 TFLs, one INT). Senior ends Stryker Sulak (20 tackles, 7.5 TFLs, 3.0 sacks) and Tommy Chavis (16 tackles, 4.5 TFLs, 3.0 sacks) are productive up front.
Daniel knows this is going to be a brawl from the opening kickoff but is ready for the challenge.
"I think it's going to be a great offensive showdown. Both us teams are very good offensively and both of us are very good defensively too. We're getting a lot better on the defensive side of the ball and so is there team. We're excited about that.
Expect an offensive eruption in this contest with the momentum changing often. It may very well come down to who gets the ball last, but go with the hometown Tigers as a raucous crowd could work in their favor when all is said and done.
Sports Network Predicted Outcome: Missouri 37, Oklahoma State 35
