Thanks to some purple team from the Big 10, there's a little more at stake for the Cowboys when they face Washington State Monday night in Pullman.
Oklahoma State, with a win, can play one more game at GIA with a trip to New York City on the line.
The OSU/Washington State winner will get another home game because No. 1 seed Boston College was crushed this morning (not a typo) by the No. 4 seed Northwestern. Oklahoma State has not lost a non-conference game at Gallagher-Iba Arena in coach Travis Ford’s three seasons as head coach.
It won't be easy, but the thought of another home game with a trip to the final four on the line has to get these guys excited. It's time to take care of business in Pullman and escape with a win.
