Oklahoma State
Inks Football Series With Boise State
Teams set for
2018 collision in Stillwater, 2021 duel in Boise.
STILLWATER –
Oklahoma State and Boise State have signed a contract to play a home-and-home
football series, the two universities announced today.
The
two-game set will begin Sept. 15, 2018, in Stillwater and conclude Sept. 18,
2021, in Boise. Those games will be the first ever between the two
institutions.
“It’s
a good non-conference matchup for both of us,” Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy
said. “It gives us each a quality opponent out of conference play, which is
ultimately going to factor in when we get to the four-team playoff.”
Oklahoma
State and Boise State are among the two winningest football programs in the
country since 2008. Over the last five seasons, Boise State has won 61games to
tie for the most in the country and Oklahoma State has won 49 games, ninth most
at the Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) level.
The
Boise State series continues a recent trend of intersectional non-conference
football games for Oklahoma State. The Cowboys open the 2013 season against
Mississippi State in Reliant Stadium in Houston. OSU begins the 2014 season
againt Florida State in Cowboys Stadium in Arlington.
Oklahoma
State recently completed home-and-home non-conference series with Washington
State (2008 and 2010) and Georgia (2007 and 2009).
