Columbia Football Prepares for Madison County Clash

The Oklahoma State Cowboys are relying heavily on superstar running back Ollie Gordon as they head into the 2024 college football season, but struggles with the offensive line are limiting his production despite a strong start with 175 yards and four touchdowns. Head coach Mike Gundy noted that while pass protection has been solid, the line's average performance is failing to create the necessary gaps for Gordon, particularly highlighted in their recent two-overtime victory over Arkansas. Meanwhile, Texas showcased a dominant performance against Michigan, exposing the talent gap as they outperformed the Wolverines in multiple game aspects, prompting discussions about Michigan's need to improve its recruiting efforts. Michigan's offensive line faced pressure issues, particularly with redshirt freshman Evan Link, and they are targeting high-profile recruits like Andrew Babalola to strengthen their roster. In high school football, Columbia's game plan against Madison County centers on stopping the run, while their recent win against Hillsborough showcased improvements in their offensive play. Columbia quarterback Zamarion Jones's growing comfort and receiver Bynton Edge's involvement are seen as promising developments for the team.
