Drew Mestemaker has been one of the biggest reasons for Oklahoma State's explosive start — but there's one problem Eric Morris wants fixed.

Mestemaker has thrown for 1,271 yards and 11 touchdowns through four games, but he's also thrown 5 interceptions. After the bye week, Morris publicly challenged his quarterback to eliminate the one interception per game, specifically pointing to the third-quarter pick against West Virginia.

Calvin Alexander is joined by Alexi Bollwerk to break down whether Mestemaker's turnovers are a legitimate concern, which interceptions were avoidable, and what Oklahoma State's offense looks like when the quarterback protects the football.

The guys also discuss OSU's explosive plays against Oregon, Murray State and West Virginia, what happens when the Big 12 schedule gets tougher, whether Mestemaker can enter the Heisman conversation, and where Oklahoma State realistically finishes in the Big 12.

Topics include:

- Eric Morris calling out Mestemaker's turnovers

- The West Virginia interception

- Mestemaker's 1,271 yards, 11 TDs and 5 INTs

- Which interceptions were avoidable?

- OSU's explosive offense

- Houston, Texas Tech, Iowa State, Kansas State and the rest of the schedule

- Mestemaker's Heisman potential

- Oklahoma State's realistic final win total

- Is OSU actually a Big 12 contender?

Host Calvin Glen Alexander (CGA) and co-host Trey Florence welcome Roger Phipps (KnightBengal) from the Knighted 1s podcast for a full preview of Saturday’s Big 12 matchup: UCF at No. 18 Oklahoma State in Stillwater. The Cowboys (3-1) come off a bye after a 41-24 win at West Virginia. The Knights (3-2) arrive after a 27-17 loss at Houston in which they led 17-0 late in the third quarter. Kickoff is Saturday, October 10 at Boone Pickens Stadium (11 a.m. CT / ESPN2), with Oklahoma State favored by about 9–10 points.

The three break down UCF’s season, the quarterback picture, the injury list, strengths and weaknesses, and close with a score prediction.

3:40 Why this Stillwater trip matters for both sides

7:15 UCF’s season so far

16:20 Who is playing QB for UCF

24:45 Alonza Barnett III’s hamstring and Scott Frost’s update

29:10 Other UCF injuries

36:30 UCF’s biggest strengths

44:10 UCF’s biggest weaknesses

51:20 Score prediction: Oklahoma State vs UCF

54:45 Final thoughts and where to follow the shows

UCF context covered on the show:

- Record: 3-2, 1-1 Big 12. Wins over Bethune-Cookman (73-6), Georgia State (44-30) and TCU (21-13). Losses at Pitt (7-12) and at Houston (17-27).

- Quarterback: Starting QB Alonza Barnett III (hamstring, suffered late vs Pitt) is not expected back. Keyone Jenkins has started the last three games. Jenkins has also dealt with a high ankle sprain and cramping.

- Other injuries: Wide receiver Duane Thomas Jr., right guard Owen Spell, linebacker Lewis Carter, plus nicks to linebacker Jayden Jennings, tight end Dylan Wade and offensive line depth.

- Strengths: Defense allowing about 17–18 points per game, running back Duke Watson, and an offense that can hang early.

- Weaknesses: Passing attack near the bottom of the Big 12, few explosive plays with Jenkins, and a banged-up roster on the road against an Oklahoma State offense that has been scoring in the mid-40s over its last three games.

Oklahoma State enters 3-1 and ranked, with Drew Mestemaker, Caleb Hawkins and Wyatt Young leading the offense.

Oklahoma State just went into Morgantown and beat West Virginia 41-24. First Big 12 win since 2023. First conference win of the Eric Morris era. Now the question every Cowboy and Big 12 fan is asking: is this team actually real?

@Thecgatour sits down with Still Firing’s CK Silmon and Chase Leadford to break down the win that flipped the OSU conversation.

Drew Mestemaker: 389 yards, 3 TDs. Wyatt Young: 192 yards and a score. A second-half takeover on the road. Was this the best performance of the Morris era — or just another hot night before the league gets harder?

We hit the Tulsa hangover, the Oregon upset, the 59-0 Murray State blowout, and what the WVU comeback actually proved. Then the bigger stuff: where Mestemaker ranks among Big 12 QBs, whether Young is the new go-to guy, what still has to get better before UCF, and if these Cowboys can crash the Big 12 race.

Still Firing called WVU the real test. OSU passed it. Now what?

0:00 Intro

2:15 How legit was the 41–24 win? Best Morris-era game yet?

8:40 Mestemaker’s 389-yard night and the jump since Tulsa

16:10 Where does he rank among Big 12 quarterbacks?

20:25 Wyatt Young’s 192 yards — is he OSU’s WR1?

25:50 Four games in: Tulsa, Oregon, Murray State, WVU

31:20 Bye week before UCF: ceiling vs. remaining holes

35:10 Can Oklahoma State be a Big 12 factor this year?

38:20 Final thoughts

If you bleed orange, watch this one.
