4-0 is a great start to conference play. I will remain cautious on the outlook for the season though. They beat WVU at home which was a great win. Otherwise they have beaten a shorthanded and bad Oklahoma, TTU, and TCU.
OSU is currently 97 in RPI and was Preseason #8 in the Big 12.
WVU: RPI - 28, Preseason Big12 - 5
Oklahoma: RPI - 141, Preseason Big12 - 7
TTU: RPI - 88, Preseason Big12 - 6
TCU: RPI - 198, Preseason Big12 - 9
That is one win against a Top tier team. Losing Gray definitely lowered my expectations this season and they are currently exceeding them. However, even with lowered expectations I was expecting the Cowgirls to beat Tulsa. And to start Big 12 play 4-1 with their schedule. The KU game this week has been postponed so that gives the 7 girls who played last night a chance to get their legs under them for their contest vs ISU next week. End of January will give us a great idea of what this team is capable of. By then they will have, hopefully, played BU, UT, and ISU.
