Scott Wright: 针对俄克拉荷马州立大学球员Ali的醉驾事件，教练Gundy选择让其公开面对，这得到了许多人的支持。这种做法被认为是未雨绸缪，及早解决问题，避免事件持续发酵。同时，Ali也展现了成熟的态度，在媒体面前妥善处理了此事。
本赛季大十二联盟竞争激烈，多个球队都有夺冠的可能性。虽然赔率和一些人的看法并不看好俄克拉荷马州立大学，但该队的进攻实力和防守的进步潜力使其仍有竞争力。联盟的深度和竞争性将持续到感恩节周末才能见分晓。
俄克拉荷马州立大学的防守数据在去年并不理想，但在赛季中的表现和改进潜力值得关注。球队在春季进行了大量训练，以更好地调整防守策略，并充分发挥球员的才能。提升传球冲刺能力是防守的关键，这需要球队更好地将球员融入到防守体系中。
大十二联盟新加入的球队面临着与以往不同的挑战，因为这些球队本身实力较强，联盟的整体竞争水平也更高。新加入的球队需要适应联盟的深度和高强度的比赛节奏。
Scott Wright: Oklahoma State's chances in the Big 12 this year are very competitive. Despite the sports books giving them seventh-best odds and a 7.5 win over/under, the team's offense is strong and the defense has potential for improvement. The Big 12 is incredibly deep this year, with several teams having a shot at the title. The season will be highly competitive, and it will likely go down to the wire to determine who plays for the Big 12 title. While Oklahoma State's defense had poor statistics last year, their in-game performance and potential for improvement are noteworthy. The team has worked to adjust their defensive strategy and better utilize player talent. Improving their pass rush is key, and this requires better integration of players into the defensive system. The new teams joining the Big 12 face a different challenge than last year's newcomers, as these teams are already strong, and the league's overall competitiveness is higher. The new teams need to adapt to the league's depth and intense game pace.
Deep Dive
