The last time the Oklahoma State Cowboys played at Boone Pickens Stadium the UCF Knights gave them a fight for three quarters.

After falling to Houston last weekend, Cowboys fans can be assured that head coach Eric Morris has his team's collective head on straight as they prepare to host the Colorado Buffaloes on homecoming on Saturday.

The Cowboys have probably exceeded the expectations of most outsiders. But Morris was expecting Oklahoma State to be better than a year ago. A win on Saturday means the Cowboys (4-2, 2-1 in Big 12) will have more wins this season than they had in the past two seasons combined.

Colorado enters the game on a four-game losing streak and head coach Deion Sanders is trying to find a formula to get his Buffaloes over the hump. The good news? Two of their three Big 12 games have been decided by a combined 13 points. They're in games. They just haven't closed the deal.

Will the Buffaloes close the deal on Saturday? Or will the Cowboys send their fans home happy on homecoming?…
