Watch: Mike Gundy's Tulsa Postgame Press Conference

STILLWATER – Oklahoma State head coach Mike Gundy met with the media following the Cowboys’ 28-23 win over Tulsa on Sept. 11, 2021.

“There was really good defensive football played today. I was proud of our defense for continuing to put us in a great situation and were good on third downs again. They continue to play well as we try to grow up on offense and get some young players developed to work through a few things. We need to come together as coaches and make a decision on who we are offensively right now with our personnel and what direction to go to give us the best chance to score more points.”

Quarterback Spencer Sanders played in his first game since the Pokes’ 37-34 win over Miami in the Cheez-It Bowl. Sanders finished going 15-of-26 for 173 yards and two touchdowns with one interception.

"I think everyone in this building will tell me I played good, but I have to be honest with myself and play better,” said Sanders. “I need to play better for this team and Coach Gundy. I can't hang my head. We have four true freshmen out there and they did great. We had a couple of misses here and there.”

The Cowboys will travel to Boise State next Saturday, Sept. 18. Kickoff is scheduled for 8 p.m. CT and is being televised on FS1.
