I finished my undergrad at UCO; third largest enrollment in the state behind OU and OSU. Very good broadcasting and journalism school, and also a well known forensic sciences school.
It’s located in Edmond, which is a north suburb of Oklahoma City. It has the typical college and campus feel, but is also a commuter school.

I've heard its a good school. Given their size and proximity to Fayetteville if they were in Division 1 I imagine Arkansas would be playing them all the time. Should be a fun game.
