Does one blowout change a one-sided Bedlam? The Cowboys respond

Oklahoma State beat Oklahoma every way imaginable last year in Stillwater. The Sooners are still smarting over the 44-10 final score.

The question I asked three Cowboys at Big 12 Media Day back in July: Does one decisive win turn a decisively one-sided series?

"No, not at all," Cooper Bassett said. "Without question, we know that OU has a lot of national championships and we have none. OU is a great historical program, probably far superior to ours. The thing is, we live in the moment. We live in the now. It's this season. That's all we're concerned about. Even last season doesn't come into effect this season. All we're focused on is winning the Big 12 championship this season, no matter who we beat."

"It doesn't make up for a history," Lane Taylor said. "I think we have to win plenty more, which I think we can, to really turn that and not make it so lopsided. One's not enough. We want to get it every year. Even when you still talk to some of the OU guys, they're like, 'Oh, it was only one time.'"

"My history, we're even," Joseph Randle reminded. "I've only been here two years. It's 1-1. Now it's time to break the tie."
