Oklahoma State vs. Central Michigan updates: Live NCAA Football game scores, results for Thursday
Live scores, highlights and updates from the Oklahoma State vs. Central Michigan football game
The Oklahoma State Cowboys and the Central Michigan Chippewas are opening their 2022 seasons against one another at 7 p.m. ET on Thursday at Boone Pickens Stadium. After a 12-2 record last season and a win in the Fiesta Bowl, Oklahoma State is coming in with an eye to spark another quality season. Likewise, CMU ended up 9-4 last year and capped things off with a win over the Washington State Cougars in the Sun Bowl, so they are on the hunt for another strong season.
A pair of last-season defensive stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: The Cowboys were second best in the nation in sacks, finishing the 2021 season with 55. The Chippewas were not quite as good, but they were no chumps, either: they ranked ninth in the nation in sacks, closing the season with 41 overall. With that kind of ball pressure, don't be surprised if there are a lot of short passes in this one.
Oklahoma State is the favorite in this one, with an expected 21-point margin of victory. A victory is hardly a sure thing, especially this early in the season, so expect a good game.
