On Friday night, no. 13 BYU hosts Oklahoma State for a chance to improve to 7-0. This game is important for both teams: the Cougars are looking to remain in the thick of the conference title hunt, and the Cowboys are desperate for a win after losing back-to-back-to-back games. The Cowboys are coming off a bye week, and Oklahoma State head coach Mike Gundy has a reputation for winning games after bye weeks. The temperature is expected to be in the low 40’s throughout the game.

BYU-Oklahoma State a is quickly trending towards a sellout. As of early late Tuesday evening, just over 600 tickets remain available on the BYU Tickets website, primarily in the North endzone. Only one lower bowl ticket remains – the rest are in the upper bowl.

Tickets Available (As of 10/15/24 in the evening)

New details have been released about the suspects arrested after a deadly weekend mass shootout where 15 people were shot.

A 19-year-old died in the shooting that happened at an event center in Southwest Oklahoma City.

“I feel sorry for his mom and his family and everything,” Jose Avila, a friend of the victim, said.

On Monday, police confirmed that Gerardo Sandoval, nicknamed “Junior,” was the person killed early Saturday morning at Patty’s Event Center in southwest Oklahoma City.

“It’s believed that there were two groups of people that got into some sort of argument. During that argument, shots were fired,” Capt. Valerie Littlejohn with Oklahoma City Police said Saturday morning. “It appears there were multiple different shooters and different guns used.”

Police now say the argument was between Sandoval and a group of people at the scene.

It escalated to gunfire, and Sandoval was killed, and 14 bystanders were injured in the crossfire.

Police arrested 19-year-old Jaziel Ramos and 20-year-old Thomas Santiago on first-degree murder complaints.

20-year-old Abraham Violante faces multiple complaints of assault with a deadly weapon.

“It’s just one of them things you get into an argument, and you’re under the influence, and it goes zero to a hundred real quick,” Avila said on Saturday when he came to the scene Saturday and discovered his friend had been killed.

“What can we do about it? Life goes on, but I feel bad for his mom and stuff,” Avila said.

Friends and family describe Sandoval as funny and a sweet soul whose bright smile always lit up the room.

A GoFundMe has been set up to help cover Sandoval’s funeral costs.

Oklahoma State football coach Mike Gundy would have put himself on the injury report heading into the Cowboys’ matchup against No. 13 BYU this week if he could.

Gundy revealed on Monday he “had a run-in” with his cattle over the weekend that left him with an eye injury. He conducted his weekly media briefing over Zoom.

“I’ve got a bad eye that I didn’t think would be particularly enjoyable for people when they were looking at my pretty face in a live interview,” Gundy said. “But more importantly, it’s full of blood, and I get dizzy. 

“So it’s not easy to be upright and be in a normal function. But other than that, I’m doing great.”

Gundy is going to have to keep at least one eye on the prize in a tough matchup against the unbeaten Cougars. He said the injury is improving every day.

“I’m fine, and it should get better every day,” he said. “Hopefully it’ll get a little better. But I’m fine. I’m working the same hours. I mean, it’s no big deal. I just didn’t think it was very appealing.”
