    OSU Oklahoma State University

    Oklahoma State Announces BPS Fan Experience Enhancements:



    STILLWATER - Oklahoma State athletics has embarked on a multi-year initiative to enhance the fan experience at Boone Pickens Stadium, which includes over $1.5 million in concessions enhancements that Cowboy fans will enjoy this fall.

    OSU has partnered with Sodexo to create a food court in the plaza level of the West endzone that will feature multiple local, regional and national restaurant partners.

    This year's restaurant partners include Aspen Coffee, Chick-Fil-A, Coney Island, Curty Shack, Down Home D's BBQ, Firehouse Subs, Freddie's Frozen Custard, Pie Five, Pizza Hut, Slim Chickens, Thai Loco and Zaxby's.

    Every concessions stand in BPS will feature additional points of sale. In all, OSU fans can look forward to 300 total concession points of sale, all with the ability to accept credit cards and Apple Pay.

    The venue, which has undergone a two-year seat-widening process, is also being outfitted with "cool zones" with fans, misters and free water stations.

    "The fan experience is important to us," said OSU Director of Athletics Mike Holder. "We have spent a lot of time evaluating our work in this area and we will continue to do so."

    Also starting this fall, POSSE parking lots around Boone Pickens Stadium will open on gamedays at 8 a.m. regardless of kickoff time to allow fans additional time for tailgating activities.

    The Cowboys have also partnered with Tailgate Guys, a provider of custom gameday experiences that includes bellhops, catering, high peak tents, tables with linens, chairs, media TV packages and more. Visit okstate.com/tailgateguys for more information.

    These upgrades are in addition to the new $5 million video board currently being installed in BPS. The 1080HD resolution board measures roughly 56 feet tall and 110 feet wide, and will be the eighth largest at a college football-only stadium nationwide.

    The Cowboy football season kicks off on Aug. 30 against Missouri State, and season tickets are on sale now. Call 877-ALL-4-OSU or visit okstate.com/tickets for more information.

    Hopefully (unlikely) with that massive new jumbotron, they will refrain from the seizure educing hi-rate flashing graphics. Not a joke.

    It was tastefully used during the game last night. No seizure-inducing graphics.

    Looking at Oklahoma State's schedule between now and November 10th...there's a great chance that Bedlam is a very big game for the 4th consecutive year.

    Agreed. No one needs a Petite or Grand Mal from going to a Football Game. Some signs, and defiantly LEP Vehicles, are rough to go by at night.

    So I just learned two new things.

    1. There is a new rule allowing college athletes that play in no more than 4 games in a season to claim a redshirt (if one is still available), and then play the following season at whichever school they transfer to.

    2. Oklahoma State's Jalen McCleskey will be doing this effective immediately.

    Kind of crazy that a player as prolific as he has been felt he wasn't getting targeted enough so much so that he desired to transfer.

    Yes to the redshirt rule but you still have to sit out a year unless you are a grad student -- that part hasn't changed.

    One article I read said it would not matter if Jalen graduated or not. Something is different this year, but I'm certainly no expert.

    http://www.espn.com/college-football...shirt-transfer

    A new rule allows players to play in four games without burning a redshirt season, allowing McCleskey to be eligible to play in 2019 without being required to graduate.
    I believe this season will be viewed as his "sit out" season.

    Jalen is a 4th year senior. He is going to redshirt this year, making him a redshirt senior next year. Since he can graduate in may, he’s also going to grad transfer and be eligible immediately. Double dipping in a sense.

    OSU sure needed a big upset win over Texas to make up after all those bad losses. Perhaps OU won't have a sure, easy win against them.

    Impressed with qb play. Big guy with a great arm.

    If only that same OSU team had played like that against Tech and especially K-State which looked absolutely hapless against OU yesterday. It will be an interesting Bedlam in Norman this year

    The trouble is the OSU from the first half needs to show up for the whole game. A team like OU won't miss out on taking advantage of a team that's napping during the second half.

    OSU won the Big 12 title in golf this past weekend by 11 shots over TCU. This is OSU's 55th conference championship in program history.

    Regionals are announced on May 1 and take place May 13-15.

    Hovland is really impressive. I'm not an OSU fan but he is an easy guy to pull for. I look forward to watching him progress as he should have a long pro career ahead when he goes that direction.

    He's been having a great year, especially when you throw in his Masters performance. Pretty cool to have him sitting next to Tiger getting his award for low amateur.

    I'm a little worried for next year when (I'm assuming) he and Wolff both turn pro.

    #21 OSU swept the other orange and black OSU (#2 ranked Oregon State) this weekend in Corvallis. It's the first time Oregon State has been swept on their home field since 2010.

    Bedlam baseball was this weekend. #16 OSU won 2 of 3 games to take the series for the third straight year. OU won the Saturday night game which snapped OSU's nine game win streak against OU.

    OSU is now 23-7 against OU under Josh Holliday.
