For No. 13 Oklahoma State, just getting back on the practice field Friday and having another opponent to focus on was therapeutic. After falling to No. 11 Oklahoma a week earlier in a game that slipped away in the final 19 seconds and cost them the Big 12 championship, the Cowboys (10-2, 7-2 Big 12) are trying to move forward and get ready for the AT&T Cotton Bowl Classic in Arlington, Texas, on Jan. 3 against No. 9 Missouri (11-2, 7-1 SEC). ''We're back to work, we had an hour-and-a-half practice (Friday) and the players have all shown up from their break,'' coach Mike Gundy announced. And then they'll meet us down in Dallas and we'll get back to bowl prep.'' Senior quarterback Clint Chelf, who completed 19 of 25 passes for a career-high 370 yards and three touchdowns in Oklahoma State's dominating 49-17 win over then-No. 3 Baylor on Nov. 23, but was merely OK against Oklahoma, admitted that the mood in the locker room was still a bit somber.
