Two weeks ago, there were some interesting comments from Oklahoma State defensive coordinator Derek Mason. Following OSU’s betting on College Football win, he said the Cowboys drive Ford and Chevy trucks. Specifically, Mason takes pride in the blue-collar culture of Oklahoma State. Additionally, he implied that Texas players were softer with their exotic luxury cars. And that remains the big problem for second-year head coach Steve Sarkisian. Sark took over a comfortable program of tea sippers. And he is yet to change it. On Saturday, the Longhorns face a Kansas State program that eats rusty nails for breakfast.
