  "account": "Oklahoma State's recent string of victories suggests that the Cowboys could make a run for the College Football Playoff, despite their loss to Tulsa. Missouri coach Eric Morris views the remaining games as \"dream scenarios,\" particularly a potential matchup against Houston, where the Cowboys could emerge as heavy favorites. The Big 12 schedule is perceived as relatively weak, with four teams without conference wins and five teams without a conference loss. The only significant obstacle would be a Texas Tech loss, but if OSU advances to Arlington, the head-to-head tiebreaker could secure their spot.",
