TV: 7:30 p.m. ET, ABC. LINE: Texas -5.
ABOUT OKLAHOMA STATE (3-0): Sophomore running back Chuba Hubbard, who leads the country with 521 yards rushing, had over 100 yards on the ground just over 3 1/2 minutes into the game last week, eventually finishing with a career-high 256 yards and three scores en route to winning Big 12 Offensive Player of the Week honors. The Cowboys also boast the conference's top receiver in Tylan Wallace, who leads the Big 12 in receiving yardage (390), yards per catch (26) and receiving TDs (six). Their contributions have made life easy for quarterback Spencer Sanders, who has thrown for seven touchdowns versus one interception and ranks third among FBS freshmen with a pass efficiency rating of 181.8.
ABOUT TEXAS (2-1): Sam Ehlinger ranks 11th in FBS with 318.7 passing yards per game and is one of only three FBS quarterbacks with at least 11 TD passes who have yet to throw an interception. Devin Duvernay tallied six receptions for 60 yards against Rice and is tied for first in the country with 27 catches, although he took a back seat last week to freshman receiver Jake Smith, who paced the team with 75 receiving yards and two scores. Texas is expected to get receiver Collin Johnson (hamstring), center Zach Shackelford (foot) and linebacker Joseph Ossai (shoulder) back against the Cowboys after each of them missed all or part of last week's win.
