Cowboy Football Announces 2021 Schedule
STILLWATER – It might be only February, but it’s time to get excited about football season because Oklahoma State just announced its 2021 schedule.
The Pokes will kick the season off on September 4th against Missouri State, then follow it up with another home game against Tulsa on Sept. 11, which marks the third-straight season the two teams will have faced each other.
The Cowboys will wrap up non-conference play with their first-ever trip out to Idaho to play Boise State on Sept. 18. This will mark the second time these two teams will have met on the gridiron as the Pokes beat the Broncos 44-21 in Stillwater back during the 2018 season.
Then comes Big 12 play. The Pokes will kick off a stretch of two home games in a row against Kansas State on Sept. 25 and Baylor on October 2.
The Pokes will then have an open week on Oct. 9, followed up by two-straight road games, starting with Texas on Oct. 16 and Iowa State on Oct. 23.
Then back to Stillwater for Homecoming as they’ll host Kansas on Oct. 30. That will be the weekend Oklahoma State celebrates the 100th edition of “America’s Greatest Homecoming” as this past year’s official 100th edition was put on hold due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
November looks to be a busy travel month for the Pokes will then travel up to Morgantown for a showdown with West Virginia on November 6, back home for TCU on Nov. 13 and down to Lubbock for Texas Tech on Nov. 20.
Now for some news everyone’s been waiting for for quite some time: Bedlam as the final game of the regular season. That’s right, the Pokes will wrap up the 2021 regular season at home against Oklahoma on Nov. 27.
The Big 12 Championship game will be held in Arlington, TX at Jerry’s World once again, this time on Dec. 4.
