We had a great trip to Austin to watch OSU beat Texas (in the final seconds). It was a HOT day, and thankfully this week we've gotten a little break in the weather, as in it is is now in the lower 90s instead of upper 90s, which it should be since it is October tomorrow! We got to watch the players come in from their bus, see Pistol Pete, and Jacob even got his hat signed by Pete:) A good day to be a Cowboy!
