STILLWATER – Oklahoma State hits the road this week to face Iowa State for a Halloween showdown on Saturday night.
Head coach Eric Morris met with the media on Tuesday morning to discuss the game. Here’s what he had to say about Cyclone running back, Aiden Flora.
“Phenomenal football player. Can just tell his toughness, they trust him in so many different ways. He’s throwing passes, they pitch it to him, he throws it, he runs it, he’s the punt returner. He just has so many roles on this team. I think mid-season All-American for a reason. A guy that has definitely produced at a high level. He’s one of those guys, the heartbeat of a team. Somebody that has the attitude of like a Skattebo or somebody like that that just brings so much toughness to them. I followed Jimmy Rogers’ career for a long time and what they were able to do winning a national championship a couple years ago at South Dakota State, they’ve put together some great rosters with a bunch of kids like that that are tough kids and play football the right way. This will be a tough one. And you know, Halloween there, been to this stadium numerous times. This is one of the hardest places in my opinion to play. It’s gonna be cold, wet. We’re playing on grass, it’ll be slippery. There are just so many things that I think allows them to really create a home field advantage.”
