EDMONTON, AB- Hats crested with Oklahoma State University topped the heads of Oilers around the dressing room on Friday in support of 'Canada's Cowboy'.
That cowboy is Chuba Hubbard, the local Edmonton, Alberta product and running back currently making waves in the race for the Heisman Trophy as the NCAA's current leader in rushing yards for the No. 22-ranked Oklahoma State Cowboys.
The former Canadian track sensation and Bev Facey Falcons star leads the NCAA with 1,604 rushing yards through nine games - just over 150 yards more than the next best - with 18 touchdowns and seven-consecutive games with 100-plus yards.
