Non-conference play concluded and Oklahoma State is 2-1, just like most prognosticators expected — of course, no one predicted how. The ugly loss to Tulsa followed by the improbable win over Oregon left heads spinning, but that's all in the past now, and these Cowboys are heading face-first into Big 12 play. A slight underdog on the road at West Virginia — which is coming off a big win of its own, 38-27 over then-No. 25 Virginia — Oklahoma State seems to be back in the mix for a return to the postseason. The Cowboys' last bowl game was the Texas Bowl win over Texas A&M at the end of the 2023 season. Needing four wins in their nine Big 12 contests, it feels like a bowl game should be in OSU's future. But which one? Here's a look at some notable bowl projections from around the country.
