STILLWATER, Okla. (AP) -- The seemingly unrelenting heat that's led to warnings and advisories in Oklahoma is being welcomed by Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy.

With the Cowboys going through two-a-days Gundy says the players need to become accustomed to the heat in preparation for the September 1st season opener at Georgia.

The temperature in Athens, Georgia, Thursday set a record at 102 degrees. It was 97 in Stillwater.

Gundy says the players become a little sluggish and fatigued but are giving a good effort.
