STILLWATER — Oklahoma State easily covered the point spread in its season-opening win over South Dakota State last week, but Arkansas presents a different kind of challenge.
The 17th-ranked Cowboys are eight-point favorites as they host the Razorbacks at 11 a.m. Saturday at Boone Pickens Stadium.
Former OSU great Leslie O’Neal, the Pokes’ all-time sacks leader, will be recognized with his name going into the Ring of Honor on the upper facade of Boone Pickens Stadium.
