Like "Kansas State University vs. University of Kansas", "Oklahoma State University vs. University of Oklahoma" is also a pair of old enemies.

But compared with the former, the latter is undoubtedly stronger:

The University of Oklahoma is a traditional strong team of NCAA. Since the mid-1940s, it has been a member of the world that cannot be ignored for half a century. In recent years, it has been a highly anticipated favorite to compete for the championship.

Oklahoma State University is slightly inferior, and its overall performance cannot keep up with its arch-rivals. The last time it entered the Four Bowls was the Holiday Bowl in 1988, but it is still one of the strong teams in the NCAA Division I Division. After the millennium, it was only in the trough in 2005 that it missed the Bowl, and it just won the Independent Bowl Championship last year.

By comparison in this horizontal way, Oklahoma State University's overall strength and condition are almost the same as Kansas State University and are slightly better.

Since the millennium, the two teams have fought four times in total, with two wins and two losses, and the difference is even.

Last year, Pres led the team to face his opponent at home and finally won with a score of "27:31". The game was entangled until the last moment before the winner was decided.

This year, the Cowboys replaced the defensive coordinator. It can be seen that the newly appointed Tim Beckham has indeed injected new things into the team, but it still takes time to polish and cooperate. So far, the game has had a big ups and downs, including "42:6", "39:3", and "23:41" and "14:35", and the team's defensive team is still running-in and adjusting.

In the past two weeks, the Oklahoma State University Cowboys have ushered in two hard games, first losing to Texas A&M University with a score of "23:24", and then defeating the University of Nebraska with a score of "45:14". It is obvious that the performance of the defensive team is steadily improving.

Therefore, although the Cowboys' current record is four wins and three losses, the entire Big 12 dare not underestimate this team.

Not to mention the ups and downs of the defense team for the time being, the offensive team is still their strength, with averaging 33.6 points per game, which is undoubtedly one of the teams with the strongest offensive firepower in the Big 12th League.

Although quarterback Seth-newton's performance was very unstable, he could not only pass a super long touchdown of 53 yards, but also send four interceptions in one game; the toughness and stability of the ground offense still ensured the Cowboys' firepower-

Kendall-hunter, Julius Crosslin, Zach Robinson and Dantrell-savage all have certain strength. Under the repeated attacks, it is difficult for the defense team to resist.

The match against Oklahoma State University was indeed the most difficult and challenging game in Lu Yiqi's short interim head coaching career.

Walker's absence due to injury caused the Wildcats' frontcourt pressure and ground running resistance to both declined slightly, and the rotational substitute players' ability to capture fighter jets is still slightly inferior.

The ground propulsion that the Cowboys are best at is also an impact for the Wildcats - although this is the defensive tactic that Latimer is good at, but due to the limitations of the players' talent and ability, facing such hard power duels on the ground, it is still at a disadvantage, and ground defense will face severe challenges.

Seth Newton's pass style is comparable to the nerve-knife style. It may be an opportunity or a difficulty. The key is still dependent on the Wildcats' on-the-spot performance in the second-tier defense.

In addition, the Cowboys' ups and downs this season, and the defensive team with big openings and closes is also an unknown factor, and no one can determine how they play on the spot.

The Wildcats, entering the second half of the season, officially attracted a double test of physical strength and energy, and the actual game progress also proved this.

The whistle sounded. In the first quarter, the Cowboys who played at home were in high spirits and were well prepared. The team went all out, and incredible energy burst out on both ends of the offense and defense, gaining the upper hand in all aspects.

On the offensive end, the situation was opened up in a solid and steady manner with ground propulsion, firmly grasping the weakness of the Wildcats' defensive team, and hard-core propulsion like a tank. It found loopholes in the defensive joint several times, and successfully created large-sized ground propulsion.

On the defensive end, he showed unparalleled courage and courage on the defensive front line, and continuously put huge pressure on the way of strong upward raids, which magnified the shortcomings of the Wildcats' weak offensive front line to the extreme, and Freeman was completely exhausted.

“0:17”.

In the first quarter, the Cowboys successfully blocked the Wildcats, firmly grasped the initiative with the cheering of home fans, leaving no chance for the opponent.

The Wildcats, who were almost breathless in the midst of the storm and storm, finally found the rhythm in the second quarter and took over the game again.

Lu Yiqi's on-the-spot command once again showed the tenacity and calmness of the big heart.

On the offensive end, the Wildcats boldly used reading options to attack and open up the situation.

The so-called reading option offense focuses on "reading". The quarterback aims at a defensive player - in most cases, he chooses a defensive end, and then the quarterback lays out the offensive front line in advance. Each player is responsible for marking an opponent, forcing the defensive end to be "redundant". Next, the quarterback only needs to adjust his offensive plan based on the actions of the extra defensive end.

And these plans are "options".

The first option is that if the defensive end rushed towards the quarterback from the outside, he would hand over the football to the running back, and the running back rushed out from the gap between the defensive end and other defensive frontline players to complete the ground rushing.

The second option is that if the defensive end targets the running back, he will hold the ball by himself, bypass the upward route of the defensive end, and the quarterback will carry the ball to complete the ground advancement.

The third option is that if the defensive end locks the running back, or is not decisive enough to hesitate, he can take the initiative to leave his pocket, find a suitable passing target, and complete the passing during the movement.

Simply put, the reading option offense fully utilizes the quarterback's own physical talent, and the quarterback runs with the ball, breaks the tactical deadlock unconventionally, and then creates more possibilities for offensive tactics. This has also given birth to the new generation of running quarterbacks outside the traditional pocket quarterback.

Of course, running quarterbacks have very high physical requirements, because quarterbacks often face more head-on collisions when running with the ball, and injuries are inevitable. Therefore, many running quarterbacks have very short career lifespans and disappear like fireworks; but at the same time, running quarterbacks also give players who do not have strong passing ability a new way out, allowing them to use their legs to create more opportunities.

Freeman, can be regarded as a running quarterback.
