OSU is in a favorable spot as many teams they play are also rebounding from new systems and coaching changes.

KU lost their star QB and has a brand new set of coaches and schemes to go with them. Plus, they weren’t exactly good last year either.

KSU was really bad last year under the returning new head coach and I don’t see much getting better this year either.

Texas Tech has totally switched everything offensively and defensively with their new coaching staff. Lubbock is always a tough place to play but I think this year it’s less daunting with the new personnel and schemes.

Conceding losses to both OU and Texas, OSU’s next most difficult games are against Texas Tech, Nebraska, and A&M–two of those being in Stillwater. I think OSU will win at least one of those three.

Prediction: 8-4 or 9-3.
