STILLWATER – As previously reported here on Pokes Report the Oklahoma State Cowboys basketball team under new head coach Steve Lutz will host their first outside competition against SMU in a scrimmage on Oct. 26. The release from Oklahoma State University Athletic Media Relations stated the game time would be announced soon. Under normal circumstances the kickoff time at Baylor for the Cowboys and Bears would be announced Oct. 14. The charity that will benefit from donations made at the scrimmage will be the American Heart Association. Volunteers from the Eddie Sutton Foundation will be there to collect donations from fans to assist in the AHA and their work in research, helping with care for heart patients, and helping to train millions in CPR to help save lives.

“Heart disease and stroke are two of the leading killers worldwide and have impacted millions of families, including my own,” said Steve Lutz, first-year Oklahoma State head coach in the release. “We're excited to give fans an early look at Cowboy Basketball while raising awareness and support for an important cause."

Admission and parking are otherwise free, and all seating general admission. The arena’s east doors will open one hour before tipoff.

Lutz brings a revamped roster and a fun, up-tempo style to Stillwater. This scrimmage will be fans’ only opportunity to see the new-look Cowboys in action before their Nov. 4 season opener against Green Bay.

SMU is beginning a new era of its own in the ACC under former USC coach Andy Enfield, who is married to Oklahoma native and successful former model Amanda Enfield. The schools haven’t met publicly since 2011 when the Cowboys edged the Mustangs in double overtime at the American Airlines Center in Dallas. SMU last played a regular season game in Stillwater back in 2005.
