Stadium scene: Jayhawk faithful flood the field Bradley Cook Staff Reporter
as if their heart rate never went above 60. The Jayhawk faithful were eager. From the first hike of the game, the fans were seldom still. Every second that OSU was in possession of the ball, the Jayhawks yelled with every vocal cord they had, making 47,000 strong sound like 100,000. The efforts of the fans did not go to waste, as Kansas prevailed as victors. What went from small specks running onto the field, turned into a sea of royal blue at midfield. Kansas stormed the field. Fans sprinting to celebrate their big win with the players. The Marching Jayhawks quickly picked up their instruments, as the fans, players and coaches huddled together to sing their alma mater one last time.
A cool and steady breeze wasn’t the only thing that filled the air in David Booth Kansas Memorial Stadium. Twenty minutes before kickoff, Kansas fans put their arms around each other to sing their alma mater and soon after followed with passionate chants of “Rock Chalk Jayhawks” roaring from one side of the crowd to the other. The Marching Jayhawks Band stomped in unison from atop the hill as they made their way into the stadium. These were the sights and sounds of the Kansas Jayhawks welcoming in a ranked OSU team, and trying to become bowl eligible for the first time since 2008. Even though it was one of the biggest games that the Jayhawks have had in years, it seemed sports.ed@ocolly.com

3 takeaways: OSU’s defense a liability in loss to Kansas
OSU’s defense has allowed 84 points in the last two games.

The goalposts came down in Lawrence as the Jayhawks became bowl-eligible for the first time since 2008
OSU can breathe easy knowing there are no more Kansas teams on the schedule, but can they breathe easy about the remaining schedule? At one point, the Cowboys looked like the team to beat in the Big 12. Well, they have been beaten, three times.
This certainly puts a damper in the Big 12 title chances for the Cowboys. Here are the three takeaways from the Cowboys’ match in Lawrence. See Liability on page 3

The polls are open, and the ballots are being collected. Tuesday is going to be a big day for many Americans throughout the nation, as today is the midterm election which will decide who is controlling the Senate and the House of Representatives. Each state will also be voting for their new governor. For Oklahoma, Joy Hofmeister and Kevin Stitt are currently going toe to toe in the polls, and it is safe to say that the election could go either
way. Because of this, every single vote counts for both parties. Regardless of if you’re a Democrat, Republican, Independent or even undecided, it’s important to exercise your civic duty and vote in these elections. Although, to some students, it can be quite the daunting task. According to a study by Now.Tufts. edu, only 66% of college students registered to vote during the 2020 presidential election. It’s unsure whether that number will be up or down this year, but it is important to get as many people casting their votes as possible. Unfortunately, the deadline to register to vote has come and
gone. Because of that, if you are unregistered, voting may be out of the picture. This doesn’t mean you can’t contribute though, many polling places are asking for students or voters to volunteer to help keep the election process run smoothly. But if you are registered, and are confused as to what to do next, the next steps are quite simple. Firstly, check your voter ID card. It should have an address for where you will cast your ballot. Many students reported having their polling location at the OSU Foundation, which can be found on South Monroe Street. See Election on page 4

Trojan Horse: What Kansas said following its victory against OSU Baylor Bryant answered that.” Leipold on Staff Reporter Here is what Kansas coach Lance Leipold and the Jayhawks had to say after their 37-16 win over Oklahoma State on Saturday. Leipold on how the Jahawks were able to play such complete football against OSU: “I haven’t looked at everything statistically. They still had 75 plays for 400 yards. But I didn’t know we held them under 18 points again at home which, you know, college football is pretty difficult holding people under 21. To see Cobee Bryant get an interception right away after being down and Mello getting his, and of course rich at the end. The fourth and one play. I mean, really, we kind of looked at some opportunities and we made some big stops today in some key moments. And again, the performance of Devin Neal I thought was just outstanding. We kind of talked about that, that we’re going to need him to have one of those games, and he
what OSU coach Mike Gunday said to him after the game: “You know, we talked more before the game about some things. Mike had come here this summer with his son to our camp and we talked about those things and our travel, the competitiveness of this league. But during that time, he talked about the marked improvement of this program. And that’s been kind of common through the talks and afterward, it was just the quick congratulations and good luck the rest of the way.” Kansas linebacker Rich Miller on containing OSU’s offense: “We just paid attention to our keys. We paid attention to what they gave us. They did things that they had tendencies to do and we knew their tendencies. We capitalized off of them.” The Jayhawks held the Cowboys to 16 points on offense with three interceptions, two sacks and six tackles for loss. Lance Leipold coached Kansas to its first win over OSU since 2007.

You have voted in the 2022 midterm election and done your part for the country. All in all, it’s easy for many students to feel like their vote doesn’t matter, that they’re just one in a million.

Courtesy of Genesee Photo Systems The 2022 Oklahoma State University Ferguson College of Agriculture Distinguished Alumni Award recipients pose for a photo.
Ferguson celebrates honored alumni and contributors Kennedy Thomason Staff Reporter Oklahoma State University recognized individuals who have brought distinction to the Ferguson College of Agriculture on Oct. 28. These 10 individuals with ties to OSU have shown a commitment to their work in agricultural sciences and natural resources. Recipients of the 2022 Distinguished Alumni Award and Champion for OSU Agriculture Award were honored during the OSU Agriculture honors ceremony. The Division of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources, along with the Ferguson College of Agri-
culture, OSU Extension and OSU Ag Research presented these awards. “The awards celebrated during OSU Ag Honors are the most prestigious honors the division can bestow on an individual,” said Thomas G. Coon, vice president and dean of OSU Agriculture. “Each and every one of our honorees demonstrate how much we depend upon collaborations and the work of others to fulfill our land-grant mission. They make us more successful in inspiring students, making new discoveries and serving our fellow Oklahomans.” The recipients of the 2022 Distinguished Alumni Award include John Fenderson, Karen Eifert Jones, Patsiann Nix Smith, Tammy Lee, Lenny Hughes and Jeff Hilst.
The Distinguished Alumni Award, which was established in 1983, is given to alumni whose accomplishments allow them to serve as a role model for all current and future students of the Ferguson College of Agriculture. Carl Whitcomb, Elizabeth Logan and Joe Williams were recognized as the recipients of the Champion for OSU Agriculture Award. The Champion for OSU Agriculture Award, established in 2011, is slightly different from the Distinguished Alumni Award. Recipients of the Champion for OSU Agriculture Award are not graduates of the Ferguson College of Agriculture, but are nonetheless recognized for the honor they have brought to the
division. Lyndall Stout, OSU agricultural communications services director and host of the television show SUNUP, served as the master of ceremonies for the event. “The OSU Ag Honors ceremony is always one of my favorite nights to celebrate the incredible honorees and learn more about them through special videos telling their life stories,” Stout said. “The 2022 recipients are among an impressive group of honorees, and we appreciate the opportunity to celebrate their achievements.” For more information, visit the OSU Agriculture Honors page to learn about former and present recipients. news.ed@ocolly.com

set to be released on Nov. 23. This is a semi-autobiographical loosely based on Spielberg’s adolescence and his first few years as a filmmaker.

There are multiple other films that are set to be released this November, at least one of them is certain to be your cup of tea.
