The Cowboys will start the 2023 season unranked in both of the major polls.
The Preseason AP Top 25 released on Monday, and Oklahoma State was absent in the rankings. The Cowboys weren’t even in the receiving votes category.
For what it’s worth, Oklahoma State was left out of the preseason AP Poll ahead of the 2021 season, a season in which the Cowboys won the Fiesta Bowl.
The Big 12 has four teams in the AP Poll but none in the Top 10. Texas leads the way at No. 11 with Kansas State at No.
