The Oklahoman: OSU 31, Arkansas 24
Justin Martinez writes: “OSU running back Ollie Gordon II should have plenty of success on the ground against Arkansas, which ranked 10th in the SEC in rushing yards allowed per game last season (154.4). But the real difference maker will be Alan Bowman. After throwing for 13 touchdowns and 12 interceptions last season, the redshirt senior quarterback threw for three touchdowns and no interceptions in a Week 1 win over South Dakota State. Arkansas’ offense, which is led by dual-threat quarterback Taylen Green, will test linebacker Nick Martin and OSU’s defense. But if Bowman can continue to limit turnovers in the passing game, Arkansas won’t be able to outscore OSU’s well-balanced attack.”

Matthew Postins writes: “It’s a fool’s errand to try and read too much into a win over an FCS team. Both Oklahoma State and Arkansas beat FCS opponents last week. At least the Cowboys challenged themselves a bit with the two-time defending national champions. UAPB won two games last year. The Cowboys have a .500 record at home against the Razorbacks all-time. They’ll be above .500 after this game.”
