ON THE AIR The game will be televised by ESPN with Dave Flemming, Danny Kanell and Allison Williams calling the action. The contest will also be carried live on the Cowboy Radio Network, with Dave Hunziker handling play-by-play, John Holcomb providing analysis and Robert Allen reporting from the sideline. OKLAHOMA STATE FROM A DISTANCE Oklahoma State enters the TicketCity Cactus Bowl riding the crest of a signature 38-35 overtime win over No. 18 Oklahoma in Norman in its regular season finale - a victory that propelled the Cowboys into bowl eligibility. The Pokes were ranked as high as No. 15 in the Associated Press poll this season, but a five-game losing streak put the Cowboys on the outside of the Big 12 race. For the second time in the last three seasons, a variety of injuries have forced coach Mike Gundy to start three different quarterbacks this year - J.W. Walsh, Daxx Garman and Mason Rudolph. Injuries have also been a factor on the offensive line. In fact, for the bulk of OSU's week 11 game at No. 6 Baylor, a true freshman quarterback (Rudolph) was playing behind an offensive line that consisted of three freshmen and a sophomore. Defensive end Emmanuel Ogbah - the Big 12 Defensive Lineman of the Year and a first-team All-Big 12 selection is the most heralded Cowboy, but defensive tackle Ofa Hautau earned team MVP honors as selected by the coaches for his work in the trenches. WASHINGTON FROM A DISTANCE Washington opened the year with four straight wins, but dropped five of its last nine to close out the regular season. All five of the Huskies' losses came at the hands of ranked opponents. Washington appears to have found its stride late with convincing wins at home against Oregon State and at Apple Cup rival Washington State in Pullman in its two most recent games. The Huskies' calling card has been pressuring opposing quarterbacks and forcing turnovers, as UW ranks third nationally in sacks, ninth nationally in turnover margin and led the NCAA with seven defensive touchdowns. Washington is capable of busting big plays in special teams, evidenced by the fact that the Huskies have returned both a punt and a kickoff for a touchdown this season. Linebacker Hau'Oli Kikana is second nationally in both sacks and tackles for loss and fellow linebacker Shaq Thompson led the nation with four defensive touchdowns. Thompson is a two-way player who doubles as a running back and averaged 7.5 yards per carry. AN OKLAHOMA STATE WIN WOULD... • Mark the ninth consecutive winning season for the Cowboys under Mike Gundy, a school record. Prior to Gundy's arrival, OSU had never strung together more than six straight winning seasons. • Improve the Cowboys to 6-1 in their last seven games vs. teams currently playing in the Pac-12, dating back to 2009. • Mark its fourth consecutive bowl win in the state of Arizona. The Pokes won the 1974 Fiesta Bowl over BYU, the 2007 Insight Bowl over Indiana and the 2012 Tostitos Fiesta Bowl over Stanford. • Improve the Cowboys to 37-5 in their last 42 games against unranked opponents, dating back to 2010. • Improve the Cowboys' all-time record in bowl games to 16-9. • Improve Cowboys' record to 6-3 in bowl games under coach Mike Gundy. • Improve the Cowboys to 18-3 in their last 21 non-conference games. • Improve the Cowboys to 5-2 in their last seven neutral-site games. • Improve the Cowboys to 2-1 all-time against Washington. NOTABLE STREAKS ENTERING THE WASHINGTON GAME • Oklahoma State has won three of its last four bowl games. • Oklahoma State has won 36 of its last 41 over unranked opponents. • Oklahoma State has won five of its last six over teams currently playing in the Pac-12 Conference, dating back to 2009. • The Cowboys have blocked at least one kick in three of their last four games. • Jimmy Bean, James Castleman and Ryan Simmons have all started 25 consecutive games, which equates to starting every game over the past two seasons. • Defensive end Emmanuel Ogbah has at least one sack in six of the last seven games. • Dating back to 2005, the Cowboys have won 21 consecutive games when not committing a turnover. • Dating back to the 2008 season, the Cowboys have won 38 of their last 40 games when winning the turnover battle. THE SERIES Oklahoma State and Washington have met only twice before, with each team winning on the other's home field. The Huskies were 24-18 winners in Stillwater in 1980, with the Cowboys returning the favor by handing the then-No. 12 Huskies a 31-17 beating in Seattle in the 1985 season opener.

GAME NOTES LAST MEETING Sept. 7, 1985 | Husky Stadium Attendance: 59,205 | TV: TBS
OKLAHOMA STATE 16 31 WASHINGTON 12 17 SEATTLE - Oklahoma State opened the 1985 season by toppling a Washington squad that was ranked No. 1 in the nation by Sports Illustrated, marking the second straight year that the Cowboys bested a Pac-10 team ranked No. 1 in a preseason publication. OSU steamrolled Sport Magazine's preseason No. 1, Arizona State, by a 45-3 score in Tempe to open the 1984 season. The Huskies, ranked No. 12 in the Associated Press poll, fell victim to a remarkable performance by Oklahoma State running back Thurman Thomas, who carried 40 times for 237 yards and a touchdown and added what amounted to the game-winning touchdown pass in the fourth quarter - a six-yard strike to Bobby Riley on a halfback option pass. OSU safety Mark Moore put the game out of reach with a 49-yard interception return for a touchdown with 5:14 left. Moore picked off two passes, both in the fourth quarter, and led a Cowboy defense that pitched a second-half shutout against the favored and homestanding Huskies.

Team Notes LAST TIME OUT - OKLAHOMA STATE 38, NO. 18 OKLAHOMA 35 (OT) A 92-yard punt return by Tyreek Hill with 45 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter tied the game and set the stage for Oklahoma State to pull off a 38-35 overtime win at No. 18 Oklahoma. The Cowboys trailed, 35-21, with five minutes left in the game, but pulled off the second-largest fourth quarter comeback in school history thanks to a 43-yard touchdown pass from true freshman Mason Rudolph to Brandon Sheperd, followed by a pair of defensive three-and-outs and then Hill’s spectacular punt return score that deadlocked the score through the end of regulation. Once in overtime, the Cowboys won the toss and elected to play defense first. OSU’s defense forced the Sooners backwards and gave them no option other than to attempt a 44-yard field goal, which was missed wide left by OU kicker Michael Hunnicutt. Five rushes by Desmond Roland then positioned the Cowboy offense at the OU three yard line, and Ben Grogan ended the contest by nailing the game-winning 21-yard field goal to send his OSU teammates storming onto the field in celebration amid a stunned-silent 85,312 Sooner fans in Oklahoma Memorial Stadium. While Hill’s punt return was unquestionably the signature moment of the game, Roland and Sheperd were both key performers throughout the contest to give the Cowboys a chance in the fourth quarter. Roland scored two rushing touchdowns and Sheperd set career-bests with seven catches for 156 yards and two touchdowns. The OSU defense started slowly by allowing the Sooners to score touchdowns on four of their five drives in the first half, but adjusted well in the locker room at halftime and forced Oklahoma to fumble on its opening drive of the second half, followed by limiting OU to a grand total of just 88 yards on its final seven possessions of the game. STANDOUTS VS. OKLAHOMA Offense Mason Rudolph Quarterback | 6-4 | 217 | Freshman | Rock Hill, S.C./Northwestern Mason Rudolph etched his name into Bedlam history by quarterbacking Oklahoma State to a 38-35 overtime win over No. 18 Oklahoma in Norman as a true freshman. Rudolph completed 19-of-35 passes for 273 yards and two touchdowns in only the second game of his college career. He was a key figure in OSU pulling off the second-largest fourth-quarter comeback in school history in the win, as he connected with Brandon Sheperd on a 43-yard touchdown pass with 4:51 remaining and the Cowboys down by 14 to make it a one-score game and give OSU a chance to pull off the heroics that it eventually did. Rudolph’s 273 passing yards were the fifth-most ever for an Oklahoma State true freshman. Defense Larry Stephens Safety | 5-10 | 185 | Senior | Houston, Texas/North Shore Larry Stephens led all players with 14 tackles and recovered a fumble that signaled the turning point of the game in Oklahoma State’s 38-35 win over No. 18 Oklahoma in Norman. Stephens, a senior who missed most of the last two seasons due to injury, made only the sixth start of his career in the contest, but was a central figure for an Oklahoma State defense that forced the Sooners to go three-and-out on each of OU’s most important offensive possessions of the fourth quarter. Special Teams Tyreek Hill Punt Returner | 5-10 | 185 | Junior | Pearson, GA/Coffee/Garden City CC Tyreek Hill returned a punt 92 yards for a touchdown with 45 seconds remaining to tie the game and set the stage for Oklahoma State’s 38-35 overtime win over No. 18 Oklahoma in Norman. Hill’s return was the second-longest in school history and was his third non-offensive touchdown of the year, as he had a game-winning 99-yard kickoff return for a touchdown at Kansas and a 97-yard kickoff return against Iowa State earlier in the season. Hill is one of only five players in the nation to return both a kickoff and a punt for a touchdown this year and is one of only two players in the country with more than one kickoff return for a score plus a punt return score. BLOCKED KICKS PART OF OSU'S ARSENAL Oklahoma State leads the nation with six blocked kicks this year, a mark that ties the 2000 season for most blocked kicks in a single season at OSU. Of those six blocks, three came in a single game against Missouri State. Safety Jordan Sterns blocked a punt, defensive tackle James Castleman blocked a PAT attempt and defensive tackle Ofa Hautau blocked a field goal attempt against the Bears, with all of those blocks coming in the first half of that contest. Three blocked kicks in a game set a Big 12 record and marked only the second time in NCAA history that a team blocked a PAT, field goal and punt in the same game. Oregon State accomplished the feat in 1996 against USC.

GAME NOTES STATE OF THE PROGRAM
PUNT COVERAGE UNIT GETTING IT DONE Oklahoma State has been solid when it comes to covering punts, as the Cowboys allow only 3.29 yards per punt return to rank 10th nationally. The Cowboys allowed a 31-yard punt return against UTSA, but OSU's other 76 punts have yielded a total of only 48 return yards (0.63 average). Consequently, OSU's net punting average is 39.68, which is third in the Big 12 and ranks 22nd in the nation.

Thanks in no small part to the defensive line, the Cowboys average 2.58 sacks per game and are third in the Big 12 and 14th nationally with 7.4 tackles for loss per contest. The Cowboys' 2.58 sacks per game far exceeds last year's average of 1.92 sacks per contest and is good for fourth in the Big 12.

GETTING POINTS IN THE RED ZONE Oklahoma State's offense stacks up favorably when it comes to cashing red zone trips into points. OSU leads the Big 12 and is eighth nationally by scoring on 92.1 percent of its offensive red zone trips (35-of-38). PROTECTING THE BALL The Oklahoma State offense dedicates a period of every practice to working on ball security and it appears that time is paying off. The Cowboys have lost only four fumbles this year, a mark that leads the Big 12 and ranks fourth nationally. Oklahoma State's running backs have not turned the ball over all season. OFFENSIVE BALANCE LIES IN BALL DISTRIBUTION The most consistent theme of the Mike Gundy era at Oklahoma State is balanced offense. The Cowboys have been able to gash teams in a variety of ways since Gundy took over in 2005. What does that balance look like in 2014? Perhaps it lies in ball distribution.

GAME NOTES DEFENSIVE BENCHMARKS Oklahoma State's defensive coaches look at multiple factors when judging their own defense, but high on the priority list are the following: forcing turnovers, yards per play allowed, third down percentage, rush defense and minimizing big plays.

Through 12 games, 22 freshmen have played for Oklahoma State. Of those 22 freshmen, 11 are true freshmen. Eight freshmen have started for the Cowboys this season.

Offensive Player Notes ABOUT DAXX GARMAN Now in his third year in the Oklahoma State program, Daxx Garman is a capable passer. He also has an interesting back story. Before making his collegiate debut against Missouri State on Sept. 6, Garman had been on the sidelines since 2009. After completing 69 percent of his passes for 2,500 yards at Jones HS just outside of Oklahoma City that season, Garman's family moved to Texas, where he enrolled at Southlake Carroll HS but was unable to play in 2010 due to transfer restrictions. Even without playing as a senior, Garman was a three-star prospect who signed with Arizona. After spending the 2011 season in the desert, he transferred to Oklahoma State in the summer of 2012 and sat out another year in accordance with NCAA transfer rules. He was eligible to play for the Cowboys in 2013, but did not see the field due to the presence of All-Big 12 performer Clint Chelf and J.W. Walsh. Garman's father, Pat, was a standout baseball player who played collegiately for Cal State Fullerton before going on to a professional career that included a two-year stop with the Tulsa Drillers, the double-A affiliate of the Texas Rangers. GARMAN COMFORTABLE IN TAKING HIS SHOTS Daxx Garman is 24th nationally in yards per completion (13.43). A look at his standing in those areas among Big 12 signal callers: YARDS PER COMPLETION, BIG 12 LEADERS Rank Player.....................................................

Walsh during the first quarter of Oklahoma State's home opener against Missouri State on Sept. 6 and helped lead the Cowboys to a 40-23 victory by completing 16-of-26 passes for 244 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions. Garman was on the field for nine series, six of which resulted in scores, a seventh resulted in a missed field goal and the final two resulted in OSU losing the ball on downs and punting as it was attempting to run out the clock at the end of the fourth quarter. ABOUT MASON RUDOLPH True freshman quarterback Mason Rudolph finished high school early in order to enroll at Oklahoma State for the spring semester and participate in practice with the Cowboys. Tabbed by both Rivals.com and ESPN.com as a top-10 pro-style quarterback nationally, Rudolph completed 73 percent of his passes for 4,377 yards with 41 touchdowns and only seven interceptions as a senior at Northwestern HS in Rock Hill, S.C.

GAME NOTES A finalist for the prestigious "Mr. Football" honor in South Carolina, Rudolph chose to come to Stillwater over offers from LSU, Ole Miss, Virginia Tech and North Carolina, among others. RUDOLPH A BEDLAM HERO Mason Rudolph etched his name into Bedlam history by quarterbacking Oklahoma State to a 38-35 overtime win over No. 18 Oklahoma in Norman as a true freshman. Rudolph completed 19-of-35 passes for 273 yards and two touchdowns in only the second game of his college career. He was a key figure in OSU pulling off the second-largest fourth-quarter comeback in school history in the win, as he connected with Brandon Sheperd on a 43-yard touchdown pass with 4:51 remaining and the Cowboys down by 14 to make it a one-score game and give OSU a chance to pull off the heroics that it eventually did. Rudolph’s 273 passing yards were the fifth-most ever for an Oklahoma State true freshman. OKLAHOMA STATE BEDLAM PASSING RECORDS Attempts 1..............43............

FRESHMAN QBS TO START BEDLAM When Mason Rudolph earned the starting nod against Oklahoma in Norman on Dec. 6, he became just the fifth true freshman to start at quarterback for Oklahoma State in a Bedlam game, joining M. Scott Burk (1974), Harold Bailey (1976), Mike Gundy (1986) and Gary Porter (1992). Of that group, only Rudolph and Bailey quarterbacked the Cowboys to victory. RUDOLPH GETS HIS CHANCE With Daxx Garman sidelined for Oklahoma State's game at No. 6 Baylor on Nov. 22, Mason Rudolph picked up the first starting assignment and the first live game action of his career. In doing so, he became just the third true freshman to start at quarterback for Oklahoma State since 1993, joining Toné Jones (1993) and Wes Lunt (2012). RISING TO THE MOMENT Mason Rudolph enjoyed a productive collegiate debut at No. 6 Baylor despite a number of factors that would typically hamper a quarterback's performance. The game was played on the road in a driving rain storm and Rudolph played the majority of the contest with three freshmen and a sophomore on the offensive line facing a Baylor squad that entered the contest ranked 14th nationally in total defense. Even under those not-ideal circumstances, Rudolph completed 13-of-25 passes for 281 yards and two touchdowns for the best debut for a Cowboy signal caller in school history. With Baylor holding all the momentum late in the first half, Rudolph calmly engineered a 10-play, 75-yard drive that spanned 4:17 and was capped by an eight-yard touchdown pass to David Glidden with one second remaining in the half to keep the Cowboys in it. Baylor re-secured momentum early in the fourth quarter before Rudolph struck again with a 68-yard touchdown pass to fellow freshman James Washington. Rudolph then marched the Cowboys 70 yards in five plays to set up another touchdown on the next drive to further threaten the heavily-favored Bears before BU went on to seal its win. On his 13 completions, Rudolph passed for more yards (281) than Baylor's Heisman Trophy candidate Bryce Petty did on 18 completions (262). NOTABLE DEBUTS FOR COWBOY QUARTERBACKS Circumstances vary from one player's debut to another's, but purely from a statistical standpoint, it is undebatable that Mason Rudolph's showing at Baylor and Daxx Garman's showing against Missouri State were the best two debuts for a quarterback in Oklahoma State history.

Toné Jones at Arizona State.....................................1993 4. 58.............. Mike Gundy vs. Kansas............................................1986 ABOUT J.W. WALSH In junior J.W. Walsh, OSU has a quarterback who has put up big numbers and has led the team to Big 12 Conference wins, both at home and on the road. A true dual-threat quarterback, Walsh started three games as a redshirt freshman in 2012 and five games as a sophomore in 2013. He finished last season as one of only five sophomore quarterbacks with 20 or more career passing touchdowns and 10 or more career rushing touchdowns. The other four were Texas A&M’s Johnny Manziel, Oregon’s Marcus Mariota, UCLA’s Brett Hundley and BYU’s Taysom Hill. Walsh was injured in week two of this season and has not played since. FOOTBALL IS IN HIS DNA Oklahoma State quarterback J.W. Walsh is the son of John Walsh, who is the head coach of Guyer HS in Denton, Texas. Walsh started the program in 2006 and led Guyer to the Texas Class 4A state title in 2012 and 2013. With J.W. at quarterback, Guyer was the Class 5A state runner-up in 2010. The connection between Guyer HS and Oklahoma State has been strong, with several of Walsh's pupils finding their way to Stillwater. Most notably are J.W. Walsh, defensive end Jimmy Bean and former All-Big 12 performer and current Tennessee Titan Josh Stewart. ABOUT DESMOND ROLAND At 6-foot-2 and 210 pounds, senior Desmond Roland is not an average-size running back. He averages a healthy 4.5 yards per carry over the span of his career and led the Big 12 by scoring 16 total touchdowns last year despite not starting until week seven. He's fourth in the Big 12 with 10 rushing touchdowns this year. CAREER RUSHING TOUCHDOWNS LEADERS AT OSU 1. 53........... Barry Sanders.................... 1986-88 2. 49...........

Keith Toston....................... 2006-09 ABOUT RENNIE CHILDS Sophomore Rennie Childs doesn't have the kind of sizzle around his name that Tyreek Hill has, nor is he quite as established as Desmond Roland is, but he is still an effective weapon in the Oklahoma State offense and has the makings of a very productive back. In the 2014 opener against Florida State, Childs carried 10 times for 51 yards (4.7 yards per carry) against a Seminole defense that had allowed only 3.3 yards per rush the season prior. With Desmond Roland sidelined the next game against Missouri State, Childs made the first start of his career against the Bears and scored a pair of touchdowns. Entering the Oklahoma game, Childs has carried 69 times for 261 yards and three touchdowns. At 5-foot-10 and 205 pounds, Childs has more prototypical size for a spread offense running back and his one-cut-andget-up-the-field style makes him a good fit in OSU's system. He was injured in OSU's win over Kansas and missed the next two contests at TCU and against West Virginia before returning for limited action against Kansas State and Texas.

GAME NOTES ABOUT DAVID GLIDDEN After battling injuries during the front end of his time at Oklahoma State, receiver David Glidden is now emerging into the player that many thought he would be after he was honored as a Parade All-American and the Oklahoma Gatorade Player of the Year during his senior year at Mustang HS. A shifty, quick-twitch style of player, Glidden was selected as the team's offensive Most Valuable Player by the coaches. He leads the team with 40 catches and is second on the squad with 568 receiving yards. He scored a 55-yard touchdown in the opener against Florida State and added an eight-yard scoring grab at Baylor. Glidden is tied for the team lead with nine receptions of 20 yards or more. Of Glidden's 40 receptions, 28 have resulted in either a first down or a touchdown. ABOUT BRANDON SHEPERD Among the most physically gifted of Oklahoma State's offensive skill position players, receiver Brandon Sheperd has the size, the jumping ability, the speed and strength to beat opposing defensive backs in a number of ways. He is third in the Big 12 and 18th nationally with 18.79 yards per reception and leads the Cowboys with 10 plays from scrimmage of 20 yards or more (nine receptions and one rush). His 87-yard touchdown catch against Missouri State in week two stands as the second-longest reception in OSU history. He struck for a 57-yard reception at TCU and is a viable threat in the vertical passing game, evidenced by the fact that he leads the team (min. five receptions) with 18.8 yards per catch. Of Sheperd's 34 receptions this year, 31 have resulted in either a first down or a touchdown (.912 pct.) Sheperd is second on the team with 34 receptions and leads the squad with 639 receiving yards. SHEPERD'S BEDLAM EXPLOITS Brandon Sheperd enjoyed a career day in Oklahoma State's win over in-state rival Oklahoma when he caught seven passes for 156 yards and two touchdowns. With the Sooners leading, 14-7 in the second quarter, Sheperd tied the score with a 39-yard touchdown reception. To catch the ball, he had to muscle it away from a defender and in the process, he lost his shoe but still scampered the final 15 yards or so into the end zone with a single shoe. His second score was crucial in the victory, as OU had seized momentum in the fourth quarter and held a 35-21 advantage with five minutes left. Quarterback Mason Rudolph found Sheperd on the sideline and he again brushed off a defender and cruised into the end zone.

Highlighted by a 68-yard touchdown reception, Washington's 114 receiving yards were the third-most ever for an OSU freshman, trailing only Bryant's 155 yards vs. Kansas and 117 yards vs. Indiana in 2007. Washington joined Bryant, Marcellus Rivers and Hart Lee Dykes as the only freshmen in OSU history to post a 100-yard receiving day. His path to Oklahoma State was a remarkable one because he came from tiny Stamford, Texas (population 3,124, according to the 2010 census). He led Stamford HS to the Texas Class 1-A state title his senior year, earning district MVP and all-state honors. He was also district MVP in basketball and was a first-team all-district and first-team all-region tennis player who played in the state doubles quarterfinals. ABOUT MARCELL ATEMAN Standing 6-foot-4 and understanding how to use his body to shield defenders and how to catch the ball at its highest point, Marcell Ateman plays a role in Oklahoma State's downfield passing attack. An all-district performer during his days as a basketball player at Wylie East HS in the Dallas area, Ateman is the son of Ron Ateman, who was a standout performer on the hardwood for Western Illinois from 1989-91. Ateman introduced himself as a viable threat to opposing defenses when he collected six receptions for 130 yards against Texas Tech. Of his six catches against the Red Raiders, three were for 40 yards or more. ABOUT JHAJUAN SEALES Sophomore Jhajuan Seales is among the most productive members of the Oklahoma State receiving corps in terms of career numbers with 56 catches for 829 yards and six touchdowns scored during his time as a Cowboy. He is among the team leaders this year with 15.2 yards per catch (min. five receptions). Seales was a lightly-recruited prospect out of Port Arthur, Texas, whose only power-conference offer was from Oklahoma State. He didn't earn a spot on his high school's varsity squad until his junior year and didn't catch the attention of colleges until he caught 54 passes for 1,207 yards and 13 touchdowns as a senior.

Traditional measures such as total defense can be misleading in the Big 12 due to the number of plays each team has to defend in the current era dominated by high-tempo spread offenses. Many Big 12 teams judge themselves on per-play stats and minimizing big plays. A look at where Oklahoma State ranks in each of those categories since the start of the 2012 season, when the Big 12 moved to its current group of 10 members: FEWEST EXPLOSIVE PLAYS ALLOWED, BIG 12 (2012-PRESENT) (20+ YARDS FROM SCRIMMAGE) Team

ABOUT BEN GROGAN Kicker Ben Grogan ranks 12th nationally with 1.58 field goals made per game, and was one of 20 national semifinalists for the Lou Groza Award presented to the nation's top kicker. After starting the season by missing three of his first five field goal attempts, he improved considerably, knocking in 17 of his last 19, highlighted by a game-winning 21-yarder in overtime to lift OSU to victory over Oklahoma in Norman. His 19 field goals made this year is the fifth-best single-season mark in school history Grogan came to Stillwater generally considered to be the best kicker in the state of Texas and was immediately thrust into the role of OSU's starter as a true freshman in 2013. He rode the up-and-down wave that many freshmen deal with in year one, as he connected on 11-of-18 field goal attempts, though he did set an OSU freshman record with four field goals made in a narrow win over Kansas State.

Defensive Player Notes ABOUT EMMANUEL OGBAH Sophomore Emmanuel Ogbah is one of the rising stars on the Oklahoma State roster. Born in Lagos, Nigeria, he moved with his family to Texas at age nine. He began playing football in seventh grade and was attracted to Oklahoma State because of the success of former Cowboy All-American Russell Okung, who was also of Nigerian descent and came from the same high school (George Bush HS in Houston) as Ogbah. Chosen as the team's 2014 defensive Most Valuable Player by the coaches, Ogbah erupted on a national stage to open 2014 when he had six tackles, two sacks, two tackles for loss and two pass-breakups against top-ranked Florida State. He was a consistent menace to Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback Jameis Winston and the Seminole passing attack all game. That wasn't even his best performance of the season, as he enjoyed a record-setting day by registering 5.5 tackles for loss in Oklahoma State's win at Kansas. Ogbah's 5.5 tackles for loss set an OSU single-game record, were the most for any player in the country this season and were the most for a Big 12 player since 2009. Ogbah is third in the Big 12 and 14th nationally in tackles for loss per game (1.4) and is second in the Big 12 and ninth nationally in sacks per game (0.92).

ABOUT JIMMY BEAN Dating back to the 2014 Cotton Bowl, junior defensive end Jimmy Bean has 10.5 tackles for loss in his last 13 games. After battling injuries early in his career, Bean has added about 15 pounds of muscle to his frame since arriving on campus and has positioned himself as an important member of the defensive unit. Bean teamed up with OSU quarterback J.W. Walsh at Guyer HS in Denton, Texas.

With 112 tackles, 18.5 tackles for loss, 4.5 sacks, two interceptions, six pass breakups, two fumbles recovered, one fumble forced and five blocked kicks, he has done a little bit of everything during his time with the Cowboys. Prior to enrolling at Oklahoma State, Castleman was a standout on the hardwood and finished his time at Amarillo HS in Texas as his school's all-time leading scorer and all-time leading rebounder. He was recognized as the Amarillo NewsGlobe Athlete of the Year in both football and basketball. ABOUT OFA HAUTAU Ofa Hautau is a load in the middle of the Oklahoma State defensive line. The winner of OSU's 2014 Bob Fenimore Award presented to the team's Most Valuable Player as selected by the coaches, Hautau doesn't have eye-popping stats (28 tackles, 4.0 tackles for loss, 1.5 sacks, two quarterback hurries and a blocked kick), but he is praised time and again for his toughness, strength and on-field savvy. He is particularly effective at plugging running lanes for opposing backs. Easily identifiable as the only Cowboy with long, flowing hair coming out of the back of his helmet (he has grown it out for over six years), Hautau came to OSU last year from Snow College in Utah, where he was a junior college All-American in 2012. Hautau was born and raised in Salt Lake City. He is first generation American after his family came from Tonga. His brother, Saile, is a 6-1, 340-pound defensive tackle who plays for Oregon State. Part of what attracted him to Oklahoma State was the presence of Beni Tonga, who coached him at Snow and is a distant relative. SIMMONS LEADS THE LINEBACKERS Junior Ryan Simmons leads OSU's linebacker corps, both in terms of on-field production to this point of his career and also in terms of his demeanor. A team-first style of player, Simmons came to Stillwater as a middle linebacker, but was converted to weakside backer in 2013 thanks to the presence of first-team All-Big 12 honoree Caleb Lavey. Simmons is now back in his natural position and is thriving. He is OSU’s active leader in career tackles with 186 and career tackles for loss with 24.5

Jordan Sterns, S 4............. 101.............. Kevin Peterson, CB 5. ........... 95................ Seth Jacobs, LB 6............. 77................ Jimmy Bean, DE SIMMONS THE LATEST IN A FAMILY OF STARS Ryan Simmons comes from a remarkably athletic family. His sister, Meighan, starred for the Tennessee women's basketball team and in 2013, finished her Lady Vol career with 2,064 points to become just the fifth player in UT history to reach the 2,000-point plateau. Simmons' uncle, Reggie Pinkney, played five years in the NFL. His cousins, Eric Barton and Aaron Curry, were both standouts in the NFL and his cousins Patrick Pinkney and Chris Curry played Division I ball at East Carolina and North Carolina, respectively. ABOUT SETH JACOBS Seth Jacobs' 84 tackles are good for third on the team this season. He recorded an interception against 2013 Heisman Trophy winner Jameis Winston of Florida State in the season opener, then recorded a fourth-quarter interception against Texas Tech that went a long way in sealing OSU's 45-35 win over the Red Raiders. At Arroyo Grande HS in California, Jacobs played stints at quarterback, tight end, fullback, running back, wing, safety and linebacker. He also competed in track and field. Off the field, he did volunteer work as a fourth grade teacher’s aide and youth football coach. ABOUT JOSH FURMAN Michigan transfer Josh Furman played safety, but saw the bulk of his action on special teams for the Wolverines in 2013. His transfer to Oklahoma State and ensuing conversion to linebacker has been remarkable to this point, as he has recorded 58 tackles, 12 tackles for loss, six sacks, four pass breakups and an interception in his 12 games as a Cowboy.

Peterson has broken up 10 passes and recorded an interception this season and is OSU's active leader with 16 career pass breakups. Peterson was at his best against West Virginia, where he drew the assignment of covering the nation's leading receiver, Kevin White. Peterson essentially shut down the Mountaineer standout by limiting him to three catches for 27 yards. White entered the game leading the nation with 145.7 receiving yards per game and was second nationally with 9.9 receptions per contest. White had 100 receiving yards or more in seven consecutive games until crossing paths with Peterson, who spent the bulk of the game blanketing him. More remarkable than Peterson's stat line was the fact that WVU hardly even tried to challenge him. White was targeted just six times in the game and only one of his receptions resulted in a first down - a touchdown grab in the first quarter that was one of the only plays in the game in which he wasn't matched up against Peterson. ABOUT ASHTON LAMPKIN Junior Ashton Lampkin was a regular contributor as a sophomore in 2013. At 5-foot-11 and 180 pounds, he has good size to go with good speed. He also has a fearless attitude on the field, which is a must for successful cornerbacks in the Big 12. Though he saw ample action as a cornerback last season, perhaps his biggest contribution to the team came as part of OSU’s kickoff coverage unit, where he was regularly the first one down the field and was ultimately recognized as the team’s special teams player of the year. In the first start of his career, Lampkin recorded an interception against a Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback in Jameis Winston of Florida State and added two tackles and a pass breakup. He added an exclamation point at the end of the Cowboys' win over UTSA by intercepting a pass and returning it 50 yards for a touchdown on the final play of the game. He was injured against Texas Tech and has not played since.
OKLAHOMA STATE AND NIKE The Oklahoma State football program is outfitted by Nike and is on the cutting edge of uniform combinations. Since the start of the 2011 season, the Cowboys have mixed up their look with a variety of helmets, jerseys and pants. A look:

GAME NOTES BIG 12 BOWL NOTES • Seventy percent of Big 12 teams will go “bowling” with two playing in CFP New Year’s bowls. • The Big 12 has had at least seven bowl teams in 15 of the last 17 seasons. • Over the last six seasons, the Big 12 has had six different teams – 60 percent of its membership - claim a conference trophy in football. No other peer conference has had as many different champions since 2009. • In each season since round-robin play began, the Big 12 championship has come down to the final regular season games on “Championship Saturday”. • The Big 12 is the only FBS conference that ended the regular season with two teams with one-or-fewer losses. • The Big 12 is the only of the peer conferences in which every team plays each other. ACC, Big Ten and SEC programs missed five league members while Pac-12 squads did not play two of their conference brethren. • The Big 12 is one of two power conferences to play a nine-game conference schedule. Due to the uneven number of conference games, Big 12 teams play five road games every other season. • 70 percent of Big 12 teams have been ranked at some point during the 2014 season.

STERNS MAKING PLAYS Only a sophomore, Jordan Sterns has become one of the team's top defensive playmakers. He has blocked two kicks this year, a total that ranks second in the Big 12 and seventh nationally. Additionally, Sterns leads the Cowboys with 98 tackles, has forced two fumbles, recorded 4.5 tackles for loss and broken up three passes. Sterns had 20 tackles, a half-tackle for loss and a pass breakup against West Virginia. His 20 tackles were the most for a Cowboy since 2001 and made him only the sixth OSU player to register 20 tackles in a game since 1984. Only eight players in the nation have recorded 20 or more tackles in a game this season. Sterns is the only underclassman to do it. Sterns is no stranger to making plays, as he scored five non-offensive touchdowns during his senior year at Cibolo Steele HS outside of San Antonio - two interceptions, two punt returns and a fumble return. STERNS ON THE BRINK Jordan Sterns enters the Cactus Bowl with 98 tackles this season. Should he reach the 100-tackle mark, he would become the first Oklahoma State underclassman in 18 years to do so. Raymond Cato was the last. He had 119 stops in his sophomore year of 1996. MOST TACKLES IN A GAME IN 2014 Player...................................................

Smith's ability to punt and kick the ball directionally with good hang time makes him a central figure in the Cowboys ranking 22nd nationally in net punting. Smith also has some pop in his leg, evidenced by the fact that he is third in the Big 12 with 15 punts of 50 yards or more and averages 42.0 yards per punt. The Cowboys allowed a 31-yard punt return against UTSA, but Smith's other 76 punts this season have yielded a total of only 48 return yards (0.63 average). Smith's 3,234 punt yards this year are the most in school history and with 77 punt attempts this season, he is just two shy of matching the single-season school record that he established last year. A former Parade All-American who was ranked as the No. 1 kicker in the country by Rivals.com after his senior year at Legacy HS in Broomfield, Colo., Smith originally enrolled at UCLA, where he redshirted his first year. He earned the starting kicker job during fall camp leading into his second season with the Bruins and played the first two games before sustaining a season-ending leg injury. He then transferred to OSU in 2012 but was not part of the program that season. He joined the Cowboy football team for the 2013 season and his precision helped the Pokes lead the Big 12 in kickoff coverage with an average of 40.8 yards per kickoff.

COACHING STAFF Evidence of Oklahoma State’s rise on both the Big 12 and national levels during Mike Gundy’s tenure as head coach is everywhere. Consider the following:
OKLAHOMA STATE
COWBOYS
• Oklahoma State has been ranked in the top 15 of the Associated Press poll in six of the last seven seasons and has posted 10-win seasons three of the last five years. Only once has OSU finished lower than third in the Big 12 since 2009. • The Cowboys have won 36 games in the last four years and 47 games in the last five.
MIKE GUNDY
• Gundy has led the Cowboys to a 41-19 record against Big 12 opposition since 2008, a mark that is good for second-best in the conference during that span.
HEAD COACH | 10TH YEAR OKLAHOMA STATE, 1990
• 2011 winner of the Paul “Bear” Bryant College Coach of the Year Award selected by the Sportscasters and Sportswriters Association, and the Eddie Robinson National Coach of the Year Award presented by the Football Writers Association of America after leading Oklahoma State to a 12-1 record, its first Big 12 championship and BCS bowl game appearance in 2011. In guiding the Cowboys to the Big 12 title, OSU became the first school other than Oklahoma or Texas to win the conference since 2003. • Finalist for the Eddie Robinson National Coach of the Year Award and the Liberty Mutual National Coach of the Year Award in both 2010 and 2011. • 2010 Big 12 Coach of the Year after leading Oklahoma State to an 11-2 overall record and a share of the Big 12 South title.
• The Cowboys rank 10th nationally with 65 wins since the beginning of the 2008 season. • OSU has scored four victories over teams ranked in the Associated Press top 10 since 2008. • OSU’s current streak of nine straight bowl games is the best in the history of the program. • From 2011-14, Oklahoma State has taken care of its home turf, compiling a 21-4 record in Boone Pickens Stadium. • OSU set the top five single-season attendance records in school history in the last six seasons, including a record average of 59,126 in 2013.
After the 2010 football season, Mike Gundy was named the Big 12 Coach of the Year after the Cowboys completed the first 11-win season in school history. In 2011, he was the National Coach of the Year after leading the Cowboys to a 12-1 record and a Big 12 championship.
• Seventeen Gundy-era Cowboys have been drafted into the NFL, with six of those 17 chosen in the first round.
• Has coached four major national award winners since 2008, as punter Matt Fodge won the Ray Guy Award in 2008, kicker Dan Bailey won the Lou Groza Award in 2010 and receiver Justin Blackmon won the Biletnikoff Award in 2010 and 2011.
• While still in the early stages of his head coaching career, Gundy’s coaching tree has already blossomed. Former Gundy coordinators include Illinois head coach Tim Beckman, North Carolina head coach Larry Fedora, West Virginia head coach Dana Holgorsen and Southern Miss head coach Todd Monken. Other notable former Gundy assistants include Texas offensive coordinator Joe Wickline, TCU offensive coordinator Doug Meacham and Texas A&M offensive coordinator Jake Spavital.
• Since 2008 alone, Gundy has coached three finalists for the Biletnikoff Award given to the nation’s top wide receiver, plus finalists for the Rimington Award given to the nation’s top center, the Thorpe Award given to the nation’s top defensive back, the Mackey Award given to the nation’s top tight end, the Outland Trophy given to the nation’s top interior lineman, the Doak Walker Award given to the nation’s top running back, the Ray Guy Award given to the nation’s top punter and the Lou Groza Award given to the nation’s top kicker.
• Eye-popping point totals have become the norm, with the Cowboys scoring 50 or more points 27 times, 60 or more points eight times and 70 or more points twice under Gundy.
• Has coached 16 All-Americans in the last seven seasons, including a pair of unanimous All-Americans: offensive lineman Russell Okung in 2009 and receiver Justin Blackmon in 2010 and 2011. • In quarterback Brandon Weeden, Kendall Hunter and Blackmon, Gundy coached the first trio of teammates in NCAA history to post 4,000 yards passing, 1,500 yards rushing and 1,500 yards receiving in the same season.

Mike Gundy and Eddie Robinson, Jr., celebrate Gundy’s 2011 Eddie Robinson Coach of the Year award.
COACHING STAFF In 2005, when Mike Gundy was elevated to head coach, he could have been described as a sentimental selection at his alma mater. He was a decorated Oklahoma high school athlete, one of the most successful quarterbacks in OSU history, and he had served on the staff of the three previous OSU head coaches. His ties to the school ran deep for him and his family. Most importantly, he was considered a Cowboy by Cowboys. Fast forward to 2014, and with that sentimental choice now the winningest coach in OSU football history, it appears the Cowboy football program has entered into a new era. OSU has an outright Big 12 title (2011) and a share of the old Big 12 South title (2010). In 2011, Oklahoma State made its first Bowl Championship Series appearance – which resulted in a win over fourth-ranked Stanford. The school finished the 2010 and 2011 seasons ranked among the top 10, including a school-best third in 2011. The 2012 Tostitos Fiesta Bowl champs were just .0086 of a point from an appearance in the 2012 BCS National Championship Game. The run to the Big 12 title in 2011 earned Gundy the Eddie Robinson Award as the national coach of the year as selected by the Football Writers Association of America after he was a finalist for the same honor in 2010. He was also tabbed as the Paul “Bear” Bryant College Coach of the Year Award, was voted national coach of the year by American Football Monthly and was a finalist for the Liberty Mutual national coach of the year award. The national accolades came just one year after Gundy was named Big 12 coach of the year in 2010 for leading OSU to a share of the Big 12 South title. The 2010 and 2011 seasons represented the first 11-win and 12-win seasons in Cowboy history and OSU has capped each of its last nine seasons with bowl trips. It is a consistency that has never been in place in Stillwater. OSU was 12-15 after 27 games under Gundy. Since then, the Cowboys have gone 71-29. Gundy has coached 14 firstteam All-Americans and four individual national award winners during his short head coaching career. And during his tenure, OSU has been firmly established as one of the most entertaining offensive teams in America. Five times in the last eight years has Oklahoma State been among the nation’s top 10 in total offense. The Cowboys averaged a school-record 48.7 points per game in 2011. In fact, only three in the last seven years has OSU averaged less than 40 points per game. During that same time frame, OSU has churned out elite offensive talent. Offensive lineman Russell Okung, quarterback Brandon Weeden, receivers Dez Bryant and Justin Blackmon and tight end Brandon Pettigrew were all taken in the first round of recent NFL Drafts. Records have been falling at the box office as well. The 2013 Cowboys were supported like no other in school history as new school marks were set for season tickets (50,223) and average attendance (59,126). Six of the eight single-game attendance highs came in 2013, including a sellout crowd of 60,218 that watched the Cowboys topple No. 3 Baylor. Gundy’s squad set a Big 12 record with nine first-team All-Big 12 selections in 2010 and matched that record in 2011. Under Gundy, Oklahoma State won at least seven games in eight straight seasons (2006-13, with a chance to add to that with a win in the Cactus Bowl) for the first time ever and won at least nine games in four straight seasons for the first time from 2008-11. In 2010 and 2011, Oklahoma State reached 11 wins in consecutive seasons for the first time in school history. OSU reached another milestone in 2011 with wins over five ranked teams.

Under Gundy, OSU has not only set a school record for first-team all-league selections, but also for first-team academic all-conference selections. Gundy and Oklahoma State agreed on a new contract in January of 2012. The agreement keeps the former Cowboy quarterback in charge of OSU’s football fortunes through at least 2019. And it is documentation of the progress that Oklahoma State has made since the 1990 OSU grad became the school’s head coach.

Oklahoma State has reached the Associated Press top 15 in six of the last seven seasons and climbed to an all-time high of second in 2011 before finishing third. After missing out on the AP top 10 in 2012, the Cowboys climbed as high as No. 6 in 2013.

His record of 83-44 hardly describes the renaissance of Cowboy football. Under Gundy’s guidance, OSU’s Big 12 record has improved from 1-7 in 2005 to regular stature among the league’s top teams. Gundy was hired as the school’s 22nd head football coach on Jan. 3, 2005. He had been serving as OSU’s offensive coordinator under Les Miles. It was the culmination of a legendary career for one of Oklahoma’s all-time great high school athletes. The first year was tough. Oklahoma State was 4-7 with one conference win and a sixth-place finish in the Big 12 South. Gundy, however, never wavered. He faced early and difficult decisions in his head coaching career. Those challenges included the dismissal of several players, some who figured to be headliners going into the 2005 campaign. He also had to deal with the shocking death of Vernon Grant, an inspirational team leader and multi-year starter. Gundy handled the early adversity with a steady hand beyond his years. The young Cowboys spent year one in transition with a new head coach, a new offensive coordinator and a new defensive coordinator. In 2006, OSU’s second year under Gundy, the record improved to 7-6, with a win in the Independence Bowl over Alabama. OSU fielded one of the country’s most exciting offensive squads, displayed some talented underclassmen on defense and proved capable of bumping helmets with the elite of the Big 12. And that win total, as impressive as it was, could have been even more pronounced as four Cowboy losses were decided on the final play of the game. The season included a win over Big 12 North champ Nebraska and a last-play loss to South champ Oklahoma. The 34-31 win over Alabama in the PetroSun Independence Bowl was OSU’s fourth bowl appearance in five seasons, but marked just the second postseason win for OSU since Barry Sanders terrorized opposing defenses in 1988. Scoring was up by more than two touchdowns per game as the 2006 edition of Cowboy football became one of the most prolific offensive teams in school history, averaging more than 35 points per game. Oklahoma State joined undefeated Boise State as the only two teams in the country to average more than 200 yards per game rushing and passing.

OSU’s 2006 roster also produced some of the Big 12’s brightest stars, including the offensive newcomer of the year in first-team All-Big 12 receiver Adarius Bowman, and defensive freshman of the year in safety Andre Sexton. Bowman and offensive lineman Corey Hilliard were consensus first-team All-Big 12 selections. Bowman was Gundy’s second straight offensive newcomer of the year (Mike Hamilton in 2005). The Cowboys finished Gundy’s second year seventh nationally and tops in the Big 12 in rushing, seventh nationally in scoring and No. 16 in total offense. The conference rushing title was a first for the Pokes. OSU followed up that ground attack with more team rushing titles in 2007, 2008 and 2009.

In 2007, despite facing the NCAA’s toughest schedule, the Cowboys won their second straight bowl game (Insight) and the climb up the Big 12 ladder continued with OSU finishing third in the South. Oklahoma State entered the final week of the regular season playing for a share of the Big 12 South championship. The bowl titles marked the first time since 1987 and 1988 (Gundy’s playing days) that the Cowboys had registered bowl wins in consecutive seasons. The Cowboys’ 45-14 win at Nebraska was OSU’s first in Lincoln since the Kennedy Administration. The Cowboy offense followed up its 2006 success with something unprecedented in 2007 when it finished the season with 3,161 rushing yards and 3,161 passing yards. OSU finished seventh nationally in total offense (486.3 yards per game). The season culminated with a 49-33 win over Indiana in the Insight Bowl and sophomore quarterback Zac Robinson set a new OSU single-season record in total offense (since broken by Brandon Weeden). The 2008 season made headlines. That version of the Cowboys became one of the most decorated in school history. Two sophomores, receiver Dez Bryant and running back Kendall Hunter, were first-team All-Americans. Quarterback Zac Robinson was a finalist for the Manning Award and a semifinalist for the Davey O’Brien Award. Tight end Brandon Pettigrew was a finalist for the Mackey Award and punter Matt Fodge was the winner of the Ray Guy Award. Junior Perrish Cox was voted a first-team All-America kick returner. Also in 2008, the Cowboys ascended into the top 10 for the first time in 20 years, climbed to sixth in the BCS rankings and picked up a road win against a member of the AP top five (Missouri). That season culminated with OSU’s first appearance in the Holiday Bowl since 1988.

COACHING STAFF In 2009, OSU was ranked in the top 25 all season, reaching as high as fifth in the AP poll during its 9-4 run. Along the way, OSU set a new record for season ticket sales and played in front of the largest home crowds in school history (all of those attendance marks have since been broken). OSU entered the final week of the regular season very much in contention for its first BCS bowl berth and the Cowboys’ 6-2 Big 12 record propelled OSU to No. 2 in the Big 12 bowl pecking order and an appearance in the Cotton Bowl. It was a satisfying achievement considering the onslaught of injuries the Cowboys battled throughout the year. The 2010 season represented a breakthrough as OSU finished 11-2 and closed a season in the top 10 for the first time since 1984. Brandon Weeden became Oklahoma State’s first All-Big 12 quarterback, Justin Blackmon brought home the Biletnikoff Award and Dan Bailey won the Lou Groza Award. The Cowboys generated 520 yards of offense per game and unveiled a new-look passing attack that ranked second nationally (346 yards per game) and helped OSU score 44.2 points per contest. All-America accolades rolled in for running back Kendall Hunter, Blackmon, punter Quinn Sharp and kicker Dan Bailey. The share of the Big 12 South title was a first for OSU as the Cowboys won 10 games in the regular season for the first time ever and for the fourth time overall. The 2010 squad also became the first OSU team to go undefeated on the road since 1945. All of those achievements were reached by a team selected to finish fifth in the six-team Big 12 South in the preseason. But 2010 simply set the stage for 2011. One year after no expectations greeted the Cowboys, 2011 featured unprecedented demands of OSU. The Cowboys were ranked No. 9 in the AP poll (tying the all-time preseason high set in 2009) to start the season and the squad proved up to the task. The Cowboys raced to a 10-0 start and reached No. 2 in the AP balloting and in the BCS standings before finishing third in both. OSU clinched its first outright conference title with a lopsided win over Oklahoma and followed up that showing with a Fiesta Bowl victory over No. 4 Stanford to put the wraps on a 12-1 season. Blackmon repeated as the Biletnikoff Award winner and five Cowboys (Blackmon, kicker Quinn Sharp, offensive linemen Levy Adcock and Grant Garner, and safety Markelle Martin) earned All-America honors. OSU won at Texas for the second straight season, knocked off five ranked opponents, beat four teams that won 10 games and beat seven teams in the final BCS rankings’ top 30. The Cowboys passed for 387 yards per game (second nationally), and scored 48.7 points per game (also second nationally). OSU led the nation in turnovers forced (44) and turnover margin (plus-1.62 per game). Despite a rash of injuries at crucial positions, the 2012 Cowboys maintained their theme of explosive offense by finishing the regular season leading the Big 12 and ranking third nationally with 45.7 points per game and also ranking in the top 11 nationally in total offense (fourth), passing offense (seventh), fewest sacks allowed per game (ninth), first downs per game (11th) and red zone scoring percentage (third). Making the 2012 numbers even more impressive is the fact that OSU was relegated to constant instability at quarterback due to injury. True freshman Wes Lunt started four games, redshirt freshman J.W. Walsh started three and junior Clint Chelf started four in the first significant action of his career. All three finished the season with more than 1,000 passing yards - a first in Big 12 history. Each had at least one game with at least 330 passing yards and each claimed at least one victory over a Big 12 opponent as a starter.

COACHING STAFF GUNDY VS. ALL OPPONENTS
Mike Gundy first arrived on the Oklahoma State campus in 1986 after a heavily-decorated prep career. He became a fouryear starter at OSU (1986-89), and led the Cowboys to a pair of bowl wins, the 1987 Sun Bowl over West Virginia and the 1988 Holiday Bowl over Wyoming. During those two seasons, OSU accumulated a 20-4 record. Gundy ended his career as the Big Eight Conferenceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all-time leader in passing and total offense. More than 20 years after his playing career, his name is still featured throughout the OSU record books. Most of his personal marks stood until Gundy assumed head coaching duties. He began his college career by throwing 138 passes before tossing his first career interception. That streak remained an NCAA record until 2008. After graduation, Gundy joined the Oklahoma State football staff. He coached the receivers in 1990, the quarterbacks from 1991-1993 and in 1995, and served as offensive coordinator during the 1994 season in the final year for Gundyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s college coach, Pat Jones. Gundy has coached in Stillwater under each of the three previous Cowboy head coaches (Jones, Bob Simmons and Les Miles). He spent one season at Baylor (1996) as quarterbacks coach and passing game coordinator before heading to the ACC, where he coached at Maryland (1997-2000). He returned to Stillwater in 2001 as assistant head coach and offensive coordinator, and he also coached OSU quarterbacks. Gundy is just the third Oklahoma State graduate to assume the head coaching duties in Stillwater. Jim Lookabaugh (193949) and Floyd Gass (1969-71) were the others. Gundy and his wife, Kristen (also an OSU graduate), have three children, Gavin, Gunnar and Gage.

JOE BOB CLEMENTS
DEFENSIVE LINE SECOND YEAR AT OSU | 16TH YEAR OVERALL KANSAS STATE, 1999
• Defensive line coach Joe Bob Clements joined the Oklahoma State coaching staff in January of 2013 immediately after helping lead his alma mater, Kansas State, to the Big 12 title in 2012 as the Wildcats’ defensive run game coordinator and defensive ends coach. • His impact was felt immediately at OSU, as the Cowboy defensive linemen combined for 19.5 sacks during his first year in Stillwater, up from 12.5 the year prior to his arrival. Defensive tackle Calvin Barnett was a first-team All-Big 12 selection by the Associated Press and the Big 12 coaches. • The development continues in 2014, with Clements’ defensive linemen combining to record 22.5 of OSU’s 31 sacks and 47.5 of the Cowboys’ 89 tackles for loss through 12 games. • In 2014, defensive end Emmanuel Ogbah became the first Oklahoma State player ever to be named Big 12 Defensive Lineman of the Year and became just the fifth OSU defensive lineman - the second in Clements’ two years - to earn first-team All-Big 12 honors. • Oklahoma State saw significant improvement in the scoring column in Clements’ first year, limiting opponents to 21.6 points per game, down from 28.2 points per game the year prior to his arrival. Thanks in no small part to the defensive line, OSU allowed only 11 rushing touchdowns during the 2013 regular season, a mark that ranked 11th nationally. • OSU’s 95 tackles for loss in Clements’ first year set the fourth-highest single-season total in school history and the Cowboys’ 29 quarterback hurries ranked sixth. With 89 tackles for loss (eighth all-time at OSU) and 31 sacks (eighth all-time at OSU) through 12 games, the 2014 team is also guaranteed to finish among the most disruptive behind the line of scrimmage in school history. • The Cowboys finished 2013 ranked in the top 25 nationally in scoring defense (19th), turnovers gained (fifth), passes intercepted (third), red zone defense (seventh), pass efficiency defense (sixth), tackles for loss (16th) and third-down conversion percentage defense (seventh) just one year after ranking in the top 25 nationally in only one of those categories (tackles for loss - 25th in 2012).

• During Clements’ 16 combined years as a player, staffer and full-time assistant coach at K-State, the Wildcats won two Big 12 championships, four Big 12 North championships, won nine or more games in a season 11 times and won 10 or more games in a season nine times. • In 2012, K-State led the Big 12 in scoring defense, ranked second in the conference in rushing defense, turnovers gained and sacks and was third in both total defense and pass efficiency defense. One of Clements’ defensive ends, Meshak Williams, was honored as Big 12 defensive lineman of the year after leading the league in sacks and another, Adam Davis, was a second-team all-Big 12 honoree who led the league with four fumbles forced. • From 2004-05, Clements served as K-State’s recruiting coordinator. The two recruiting classes he spearheaded produced future NFL players Zac Diles, Yamon Figurs, Tearrius George, Justin McKinney and Reggie Walker. • Clements spent seven seasons as a full-time member of the K-State coaching staff, plus two seasons at San Diego State and one season at Kansas prior to joining the staff at Oklahoma State. • At San Diego State from 2006-07, Clements’ time was highlighted by the performance of first-team all-Mountain West Conference defensive lineman Antwan Applewhite. In Applewhite, Clements coached the first Aztec defensive lineman to earn first-team all-Mountain West Conference honors in seven years. • At Kansas in 2008, Clements helped coach the Jayhawks to an eight-win season and a win over division champion and archrival Missouri. The 2008 Jayhawks picked up a convincing 42-21 win over Minnesota in the Insight Bowl.

He was a member of five bowl teams with the Wildcats, highlighted by trips to the Cotton and Fiesta Bowls. • Clements graduated from Kansas State in 1999 with a bachelors degree in mass communications, then added a master’s degree in counseling (student development) from K-State in 2009.

BOB CONNELLY
OFFENSIVE LINE FIRST YEAR AT OSU | 19TH YEAR OVERALL TEXAS A&M COMMERCE, 1994
• Bob Connelly joined the Oklahoma State coaching staff in February of 2014. • His first year with the Cowboys resulted in the OSU offense turning in top-10 single-season marks in school history in pass attempts, completions and yards. • Connelly, an 18-year coaching veteran with full-time coaching stops at such programs as Alabama, UCLA, Arizona State and Washington State, has Texas roots and has coached offensive linemen his entire career. • Highlighting the 10 bowl teams he has coached during his career are the 1998 Texas A&M squad that played in the Sugar Bowl, the 2002 Washington State squad that played in the Rose Bowl and the 2005 Alabama squad that played in the Cotton Bowl. • Among the players he has coached are 2008 Outland Trophy winner and the sixth overall pick of the 2009 NFL Draft, Andre Smith, plus three other players who were also selected in the first three rounds of the NFL Draft in Justin Smiley (second round in 2004), Evan Mathis (third round in 2005) and Antoine Caldwell (third round in 2009). Mathis went on to earn a Pro Bowl selection in 2013.
• During his season in Tempe, he took an ASU offensive line that had lost seven seniors from the season before and turned it into one that paved the way for an offense that ranked in the top 25 nationally in scoring, rushing offense and total offense. • Connelly served on Mike Price’s coaching staff at Washington State from 2001-02 and helped the Cougars to a 20-5 record during his two seasons there for the best two-year stretch in WSU history. The Cougars ranked in the top 25 nationally in scoring offense, total offense and passing offense in both of Connelly’s seasons. • He left Washington State for Alabama in 2003 and helped the Crimson Tide go from a team that went 4-9 to 10-2 in just two years. • Following a one-year stop at UCLA in 2007, Connelly rejoined Price - this time at UTEP - in 2008. The Miners averaged more than 400 yards of total offense per game in both 2008 and in 2009. The 2009 squad ranked 18th nationally in total offense and was 20th nationally in passing offense. • A native of Carrollton, Texas, who graduated from Texas A&M Commerce in 1994 with a degree in kinesiology and then a master’s degree in health, physical education and recreation, Connelly was an All-America offensive guard as well as a two-time member of the Academic All-America team during his playing days. He was singled out as his school’s male athlete of the year.

RUNNING BACKS FOURTH YEAR AT OSU | 14TH YEAR OVERALL AIR FORCE, 1999
• Jemal Singleton joined the Oklahoma State staff in February of 2011. • In both of Singleton’s first two seasons on staff, Oklahoma State ranked in the top five nationally in total offense and scoring offense. • In 2014, Singleton coached Big 12 Offensive Newcomer of the Year Tyreek Hill. • Perhaps Singleton’s greatest point of emphasis as a coach is ball security, and the Cowboy running backs were spectacular in that area in 2014, as the OSU running backs did not commit a single turnover. Cowboy running backs combined for 468 touches during the regular season with only one fumble among the group, and that fumble was recovered immediately by OSU. • The Cowboys have scored more than 50 points 11 times, broke the 60-point mark in five contests, the 70-point mark twice and the 80-point plateau once with Singleton on the sidelines. • Under Singleton’s watch in 2012, Joseph Randle was a unanimous first-team All-Big 12 selection after leading the league with 112.6 rushing yards per game during the regular season. Randle also ranked among the conference leaders in touchdowns and all-purpose yards per game. He went on to be selected by the Dallas Cowboys in the 2013 NFL Draft. • The OSU running backs combined to score 27 rushing touchdowns and add another three receiving touchdowns during the 2012 season. • Oklahoma State scored 35 rushing touchdowns during the 2013 regular season, a mark that ranked the Cowboys second in the Big 12 and 15th nationally. It was the sixthhighest single-season mark in school history. • Despite not starting until the seventh game of the 2013 season, Desmond Roland led all Big 12 running backs and was 31st nationally with 13 rushing touchdowns.
• Singleton coached the Cowboy running backs to 10 100-yard games in 2011, with Randle accounting for six and both Jeremy Smith and Herschel Sims tacking on an additional two, respectively. Both Randle (151 yards and two touchdowns) and Smith (119 yards and two touchdowns) eclipsed the 100-yard mark in Oklahoma State’s Big 12 championship-clinching win over Oklahoma. • A 1999 graduate of the Air Force Academy, Singleton served in multiple capacities at his alma mater from 2000-10, earning a full-time varsity coaching appointment in 2006. • Singleton served as the Falcons’ running backs coach from 2006-10 and held the title of running game coordinator from 2007-10. During his tenure, Air Force won the conference rushing title and ranked in the top 10 nationally each season. • In 2010, the Falcons ranked second in the country with 306.5 rushing yards per game. Asher Clark became the 13th player in the program’s history to reach 1,000 yards with 1,031. He averaged 79.3 yards per game and Jared Tew delivered 74.9 yards per game in eight contests. The team’s 3,985 rushing yards marked the second-best total in Mountain West Conference history and the team’s 41 rushing touchdowns shared a MWC record. • Clark (2008) and Tew (2009) both secured outstanding player honors at the Armed Forces Bowl under Singleton’s guidance. • Along with Clark and Tew, Singleton also mentored 2008 graduate Chad Hall into one of the most explosive running backs in the nation. Hall was a third-team All-American in 2007 and was the conference offensive player of the year after rushing for a conference-best 1,478 yards, which is the second-best single-season effort in school history. • Singleton developed a young group of running backs that helped Air Force rank third nationally with a 283.5 yardsper-game average in 2009. • In Singleton’s first year as running backs coach, he helped dramatically decrease Air Force’s number of fumbles. In 2005, the Falcons had 28 fumbles. However, with Singleton coaching the Air Force backs in 2006, the Falcons had just 19 fumbles, an average of nearly one less fumble per game. • Singleton is a 1999 graduate of the Academy where he earned his bachelor’s degree in social sciences. He played running back for the Falcons from 1995-98.
• A co-captain of the 1998 squad, Singleton was a three-year letterwinner at halfback and was an honorable mention All-Western Athletic Conference selection his senior year. • While at the Academy, Singleton helped lead the school to new heights. The team won 10 or more games in backto-back seasons for the first time in school history during his junior and senior campaigns. • The 1997 team went 10-3 while the 1998 squad went 12-1 and won the school’s first outright conference title. • Singleton began his Air Force and coaching career at the USAFA Prep School in 2000. He served as an instructor and assistant head coach/offensive coordinator. Singleton was then stationed at Little Rock AFB in Jacksonville, Ark., from January 2001 to January 2003 as a public affairs officer. He returned to the Academy in the spring of 2003 and served as the executive officer for the athletic director before taking over as the junior varsity defensive coordinator and varsity assistant coach. • The son of a retired Air Force sergeant, Singleton was born in Incirlik, Turkey. He graduated from Taft High School in San Antonio, Texas, where he was a three-year letterman and all-state honoree. He was also the district most valuable player as a senior and was coached by the late Mike Haynes. PERSONAL • Singleton and his wife, Jennifer, have two daughters, Morgan and Mallory.

• Glenn Spencer was promoted to defensive coordinator in January of 2013. He coached the Cowboy defensive line in 2008 and has coached the OSU linebackers from 2009 through the present. • Oklahoma State has become one of the Big 12’s elite teams with Spencer on the staff, as the Cowboys have amassed a 65-25 record since he came to Stillwater prior to the 2008 season. OSU won a share of the Big 12 South title in 2010 and won the Big 12 outright in 2011. The Cowboys appeared in - and won - their first-ever BCS bowl game in 2011 with a victory over Stanford in the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl. • A 2013 nominee for the Broyles Award given to the nation’s top assistant coach, Spencer oversaw a significant improvement in Oklahoma State’s defense from 2012 to 2013. In Spencer’s first year as defensive coordinator, the Cowboys limited opponents to 21.6 points per game, down from 28.2 points per game the year before he took over. • In 2013, he led one of the most impressive defensive turnarounds in the nation. The Cowboys finished 2013 ranked in the top 25 nationally in scoring defense (19th), turnovers gained (fifth), passes intercepted (third), red zone defense (seventh), pass efficiency defense (sixth), tackles for loss (16th) and third-down conversion percentage defense (seventh) just one year after ranking in the top 25 nationally in only one of those categories (tackles for loss - 25th in 2012). • The 2013 Cowboys ranked third in school history in yards per pass attempt defense and third in pass efficiency defense. OSU’s 21 interceptions were the sixth-highest total in school history and its 60 pass breakups ranked seventh. • The Oklahoma State defense has been among the nation’s most opportunistic since 2009, as the Cowboys have forced 174 turnovers to rank fourth in the nation. OSU ranked No. 1 in the country with 44 turnovers forced in 2011. • Oklahoma State led the nation in turnover margin and fumbles recovered and ranked second in the nation in passes intercepted in 2011. OSU led the Big 12 in scoring defense in conference games and was 12th nationally in red zone defense.

A firstteam All-Big 12 honoree, Lemon ranked third in the Big 12 and 18th in the nation with 10.2 tackles per game. His 101 solo tackles led the Big 12 and ranked third nationally. Lemon finished with 133 total tackles. In his three previous seasons combined prior to 2010, Lemon had 96 tackles. • Spencer was part of a defensive staff that helped OSU improve to 31st nationally in total defense and a group that ranked 11th nationally in rushing defense in ’09. • Before coming to OSU in 2008, he spent the previous three seasons as assistant head coach, recruiting coordinator and defensive backs coach at Duke. • During his time with the Blue Devils, Spencer coached John Talley to first-team All-Atlantic Coast Conference honors in both 2005 and 2006. He did remarkable work on the recruiting front for Duke, helping the Blue Devils land the nation’s No. 31 class in 2005 and the No. 36 class in 2006, according to Scout.com. • Prior to his arrival at Duke, Spencer coached the defensive line at Georgia Tech in 2002 and 2003 and served as the Yellow Jackets’ running backs coach in 2001. With Spencer coaching the defensive line, Georgia Tech ranked 12th nationally in rushing defense, 20th in total defense and 27th in scoring defense in 2003 and placed a pair of representatives on the All-ACC squad. Eric Henderson earned first-team recognition after leading the conference with 11 quarterback sacks and logging 24 tackles for loss, and Travis Parker earned honorable mention honors. In addition, Spencer coached Mansfield Wrotto to Freshman All-America honors. • Spencer coached All-ACC tailback Joe Burns in 2001, helping Burns to become just the fifth 1,000-yard rusher in Yellow Jacket history. • During his time with Georgia Tech, he coached the Yellow Jackets in the Silicon Valley Football Classic in 2002 and the Seattle Bowl in 2001. He helped Georgia Tech to an appearance in the 2003 Humanitarian Bowl, but did not coach in the game as he accepted the assistant head coach job at Duke following the regular season but prior to the bowl game. • Prior to his time at Tech, Spencer spent 11 seasons at West Georgia, highlighted by a successful three-year run as head coach from 1998-2000. Spencer compiled a 28-7

OSU scored 40 or more points six times and 50 or more points four times. • In addition to racking up big point totals during Yurcich’s first year, the Cowboys led the Big 12 and ranked seventh nationally by losing only five fumbles. • Yurcich’s first year resulted in OSU recording the sixthbest season in school history for scoring offense, the fourth-best season in school history for passing offense and the sixth-best season in school history for rushing touchdowns. • Balance was a strong suit for the OSU offense during Yurcich’s first year as offensive coordinator, as 14 different players scored an offensive touchdown during the 2013 regular season. The Cowboys finished the regular season with 503 rushing attempts and 484 passing attempts. • Oklahoma State was one of only three teams in the nation to record a game with 500 passing yards and a game with 300 rushing yards during the 2013 season - and both of OSU’s came on the road. The Pokes hit UTSA for 518 passing yards and battered Iowa State with 348 rushing yards. • Yurcich was at the reins for an Oklahoma State first when the Cowboys beat Iowa State, 58-27, and No. 15 Texas Tech, 52-34, in consecutive weeks to mark the first time in the history of the program that OSU scored 50 points or more in back-to-back road games. • With Yurcich serving as his position coach, OSU quarterback Clint Chelf ranked eighth nationally with an adjusted QBR of 83.9. Chelf was a two-time selection as Big 12 Player of the Week and was a second-team All-Big 12 honoree selected by the Associated Press and the Big 12 coaches.
• Quarterback J.W. Walsh set a single-game school record for completion percentage (min. 20 attempts) when he connected on 88.9 percent of his passes (24-of-27) against UTSA under Yurcich’s guidance.
• Edinboro had back-to-back nine win seasons in 2008 and 2009. The Fighting Scots advanced to the 2009 NCAA Division II football playoffs where Harris set a Division II playoff record with 630 passing yards against West Liberty.
• Other offensive players to earn All-Big 12 honors under Yurcich’s watch were offensive lineman Parker Graham (first team by the Associated Press and by the coaches), fullback Kye Staley (second team by the coaches) and receiver Josh Stewart (second team by the coaches).
• Edinboro averaged at least 30 points per game from 2007-09 and consistently ranked among Division II’s top offenses with Yurcich calling plays.
• Oklahoma State scored 35 rushing touchdowns during the 2013 regular season, a mark that ranked the Cowboys second in the Big 12 and 15th nationally. • Despite not starting until the seventh game of the 2013 season, Desmond Roland led all Big 12 running backs and was 31st nationally with 13 rushing touchdowns. • In 2014, Yurcich oversaw an offense that produced Big 12 Offensive Newcomer of the Year Tyreek Hill and ranked in the top 10 nationally in red zone offense and fewest fumbles lost. • Yurcich helped re-write the record books at Shippensburg. His first team set school records for points, touchdowns, total plays, first downs and total offense. His second team led the NCAA (Division II) in total offense (529.2 yards per game), and was second nationally in scoring (46.9 points per game) and passing offense (387.7 yards per game) during an 11-2 season. • With Yurcich serving as his position coach, Shippensburg quarterback Zach Zulli won the 2012 Harlon Hill Award as the top player in Division II. Zulli set NCAA Division II records by accounting for 336 points and 56 touchdowns and tied the national record with 54 touchdown passes. Zulli ranked fourth in Division II in passing yards per game (365.2), third in total offense (382.4) and fifth in passing efficiency with a rating of 165.3 • Shippensburg scored 40 or more points 16 times in 24 games with Yurcich calling the plays from 2011-12. • Before coaching at Shippensburg, Yurcich spent time at Edinboro University from 2006-2010, where he served as offensive coordinator and coached quarterbacks and receivers. During his tenure at Edinboro, Yurcich coached All-America quarterback Trevor Harris, a fourtime all-Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference West selection who signed a free agent contract with the NFL’s Jacksonville Jaguars.
• Yurcich is a 1999 graduate of California University in Pennsylvania. He spent three seasons as the school’s starting quarterback and was a two-year captain. He began his playing career at Mount Union College. He earned a degree in psychology at California and a master’s degree in education from St. Francis, where he picked up a school counseling license. PERSONAL • Yurcich is a native of Euclid, Ohio. His wife, Julie, was an All-America cross country athlete at Edinboro. They have two sons: Jack and Clay.

Strong, big-armed quarterback who showed remarkable composure when called upon to start at quarterback in road contests against No. 6 Baylor and No. 18 Oklahoma in the first two games of his college career. 2014 (Freshman): Was ticketed for a redshirt until an injury to Daxx Garman thrust him into the starting lineup in week 11 at No. 6 Baylor and he responded by turning in the most passing yards ever for an Oklahoma State player in his first game (281) ... Etched his name into OSU Bedlam lore by quarterbacking the Cowboys to the secondlargest fourth-quarter come-from-behind victory in school history as part of their 38-35 overtime win over the Sooners in Norman ... Rudolph’s 273 passing yards against OU were the second-most ever for an OSU quarterback in a Bedlam Series game and his two touchdown passes that day tied for third-most ever for a Cowboy against the Sooners ... In the four games prior to Rudolph’s insertion into the lineup, OSU averaged 10.0 points and 286.5 yards of total offense per game, but with Rudolph at quarterback, the Cowboys averaged 33.0 points and 391 yards of total offense per game in the final two contests, both of which were on the road against ranked opponents ... In his debut gainst Baylor, Rudolph thrived despite a number of factors that would typically hamper a quarterback’s performance - the game was played on the road in a driving rain storm and Rudolph played the majority of the contest with three freshmen and a sophomore on the offensive line facing a Baylor squad that entered the contest ranked 14th nationally in total defense ... Still, he completed 13-of-25 passes for 281 yards and two touchdowns against the Bears for the best debut for a Cowboy signal caller in school history ... On his 13 completions, Rudolph passed for more yards (281) than Baylor’s Heisman Trophy candidate Bryce Petty did on 18 completions (262). High School: Coached by Kyle Richardson at Northwestern High School ... Led Northwestern to a 62-35 victory over Stratford in the South Carolina Class 4A Division II Championship Game, completing 40-of-57 passes for 488 yards with eight touchdown passes and only one interception ...

STILLWATER - Daxx Garman threw for 244 yards and two touchdowns in his first collegiate game to help lift Oklahoma State to a 40-23 defeat of Missouri State. The Cowboys raced out to a 37-6 lead midway through the third quarter before the Bears were able to muster any kind of sustained scoring.
STILLWATER - After spotting UTSA a first-quarter field goal to open the scoring, Oklahoma State scored 27 unanswered points to set the tone for its 43-13 win. With quarterback J.W. Walsh out, Daxx Garman stepped in for his first start and helped the Cowboys pile up 477 yards of offense. OSU's defense owned the line of scrimmage and used its superior speed to limit UTSA to only three-of-17 on third down (17.6 pct.) The Cowboys held the Roadrunners to only 73 yards on 25 rushing attempts (2.1 yards per carry).

ARLINGTON - The Cowboys were 20-point underdogs to the No. 1-ranked reigning national champions and overcame an early 17-0 deficit to battle the Seminoles well into the fourth quarter, but shaky play on special teams and a first-half pick-six were significant factors that thwarted OSU's hopes of pulling the upset.

FORT WORTH - TCU's offense hit Oklahoma State with a flurry of long scoring plays early to create all the separation it needed in its 42-9 win over the Cowboys in Amon G. Carter Stadium. The Horned Frogs' three first-quarter touchdown drives spanned 30 seconds, 12 seconds and 34 seconds, respectively. Still, the Cowboys hung around behind three field goals from Ben Grogan to bring the score to 21-9 late in the second quarter. TCU responded when B.J. Catalon rushed for a 35-yard touchdown on a fourth-andone play with 1:53 left in the half to give the Frogs a 28-9 lead. TCU dominated time of possession in the second half (22:48 to 7:12) and limited OSU to 51 yards of total offense after halftime to seal its win.
STILLWATER - Oklahoma State allowed West Virginia to score touchdowns on each of its first two possessions and that is all the advantage the Mountaineers needed in their 34-10 win over the Cowboys in Boone Pickens Stadium. The Pokes trailed, 14-10, at the half and were very much in the game, but WVU minimized OSU's comeback chances by piling up a 12:09-to-2:51 advantage in time of possession in the third quarter. The Mountaineers ran 25 offensive plays in the third quarter to OSU's seven. Still, trailing only 17-10 going into the fourth quarter, the Cowboys remained in position to make a move, but could not muster any kind of threat.

MANHATTAN - Oklahoma State marched downfield and scored a touchdown on its opening drive of the game, but could not sustain that level of play in its 48-14 loss at No. 11 Kansas State. Playing without starting running back Desmond Roland, who did not travel with the team due to a death in the family, the Cowboys turned to Tyreek Hill at running back and the junior speedster responded by turning in OSU's first 100-yard rushing performance of the season. Hill finished with 102 yards and a touchdown on the ground.

STILLWATER - Oklahoma State's defense played well enough to keep Texas within striking range, but the Cowboys were unable to generate many scoring opportunities and lost a 28-7 decision to the Longhorns in Boone Pickens Stadium. Texas scored on each of its first three drives to seize control of the game and the Longhorns' defense held the Cowboys in check throughout the day as OSU totaled 192 yards of offense and just nine first downs. Texas controlled the trenches, limiting the Cowboys to 1.5 yards per rush and amassing seven quarterback sacks. It wasn't until the 9:02 mark of the fourth quarter that the Pokes got on the board when quarterback Daxx Garman connected on an eight-yard scoring pass to James Washington.
WACO - Debuting true freshman quarterback Mason Rudolph playing most of the game behind an offensive line consisting of three freshmen and a sophomore, Oklahoma State lost a 49-28 decision in a driving rain storm to No. 6 Baylor in Waco. Baylor jumped the Cowboys immediately and held a 14-0 lead less than three minutes into the game after a pair of long touchdown passes. OSU responded by dropping safeties back, which set the stage for the Bears to be able to rush for 317 yards and five touchdowns in the contest. Score by Quarters Oklahoma State Baylor

NORMAN - A 92-yard punt return by Tyreek Hill with 45 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter tied the game and set the stage for Oklahoma State to pull off a 38-35 overtime win at No. 18 Oklahoma. The Cowboys trailed, 35-21, with five minutes left in the game, but pulled off the second-largest fourth quarter comeback in school history thanks to a 43-yard touchdown pass from true freshman Mason Rudolph to Brandon Sheperd, followed by a pair of defensive three-and-outs and then Hill's spectacular punt return score that deadlocked the score through the end of regulation.

DALLAS – The first bowl appearance for Oklahoma A&M turned into a pleasant experience for the orange and black faithful as the Aggies used a season-ending 28-6 win over Oklahoma as a springboard to a dominating bowl performance.
NEW ORLEANS -- A capacity crowd of 75,000 gathered to watch the battle of All-Americans, Oklahoma A&M’s Bob “Blond Bomber” Fenimore and St. Mary’s “Squirmin’” Herman Wedemeyer.
Oklahoma A&M sophomore tailback whiz Bob Fenimore, the nation’s total offense leader, lived up to All-America billings as the Cowboys bounced the local team from TCU, 34-0, in the third-largest margin of victory in Cotton Bowl history. Fenimore scored on runs of one and seven yards and completed 6-of-13 passes for 136 yards. Fullback Jim Spavital powered his way for 120 yards, including a 52-yard scoring bolt.
Wedemeyer’s 46-yard touchdown pass to Dennis O’Conner opened the scoring, but Fenimore matched it with a 29-yard scoring toss to Cecil Hankins as the first quarter ended. Fenimore’s short plunge gave A&M the lead for keeps, but just before the half, Wedemeyer lateralled to Fred DeSalvo, who weaved his way through Aggie defenders 44 yards for a touchdown. The conversion missed, and A&M led at halftime.
Meanwhile, the Poke defense smothered TCU, not allowing the Horned Frogs past midfield until the second half. Coach Jim Lookabaugh’s muscular single-wing offense harvested 494 yards of total offense, while TCU could manage only 105. In the fourth period, A&M’s reserves took over with Joe Thomas and Mack Creager adding touchdowns on short plunges. The Aggies finished the year with an 8-1 record. It was their best win total since the 1932 squad won nine games. Fenimore, Neill Armstrong (who would later coach the Chicago Bears) and tackle Ralph Foster were all Aggies who were named as the game’s outstanding players. Fenimore was inducted into the Cotton Bowl Hall of Fame in the spring of 2007. Score by Quarters TCU Oklahoma A&M

MEMPHIS -- Only 15,069 fans braved chilling weather in Crump Stadium as the William and Mary Indians made the most of Oklahoma A&M’s mistakes for a 20-0 win in the second and final Delta Bowl.
While the Cowboy passing game was off, the ground game produced another Fenimore TD plunge in the third period, and Jim Reynolds opened the fourth stanza by leaping a yard for a score. Reynolds winged a 20-yard TD pass to Joe Thomas in the final minutes to end the wild scoring derby. In his battle with Wedemeyer, Fenimore got the best of the total offense struggle, netting 206 yards in 36 plays while Wedemeyer had 184 yards in 25 plays. Fenimore also punted four times for an average of 53.2 yards. Score by Quarters St. Mary’s Oklahoma A&M

The Indians never got outside their own 36-yard-line in the first half, but quarterback Tommy Korshcowski passed 12 yards to Lou Hoitsma in the third period for a touchdown. A Cowboy fumble set the stage for Korshcowski’s 22-yard scoring aerial to Jack Bruce in the fourth period. With A&M driving, Indian tackle Lou Creekmur picked off a deflected Bob Carey pass and rumbled 70 yards for the game’s last tally. Jack Cloud was the only Indian rusher of the day, gaining 78 yards in 14 tries while Kenny Roof had 63 in seven cracks for the Aggies. Score by Quarters William & Mary Oklahoma A&M

LOUISVILLE - Playing on a baseball diamond and in tennis shoes, Oklahoma State’s ground game, behind Duane Wood and Forrest Campbell, staked the Pokes to a 15-point lead, and a rock-ribbed defense surrendered only a late TD pass from Joe Majors to Carl Meyer. Wood scored both OSU touchdowns on rushes of one and 17 yards. But Campbell, who netted 130 yards on 26 carries, was chosen outstanding player of the game. Dick Soergel engineered the OSU offense while Vandiver Childs, Jim Howard, Sonny Keys, John Calvin and Fred Latham manned a mauling Cowpoke defense. The game was televised over ABC-TV with Harry Wismer handling the play-by-play duties and Howard Cosell providing color commentary. Only 7,000 frigid fans turned out for the first and last edition of the Bluegrass Bowl. Score by Quarters Oklahoma State Florida State

TEMPE -- A slow-starting offense aided by a spunky defense lifted OSU to a 16-6 verdict over Brigham Young, champs of the WAC. State didn’t get a first down in the opening quarter as the Cougars posted a pair of field goals. Midway in the second period Charlie Weatherbie pitched to Kenny Walker, who scored from 12 yards out. OSU made three deep drives in the third period but settled for a single field goal, a 42-yarder by Abby Daigle. After subduing a fourth-quarter Cougar drive at the OSU 28, the Pokes wedged their way past midfield in a time-consuming drive. Leonard Thompson then lofted the halfback pass to split end Gerald Bain for 40 yards and the clinching score. State’s Phillip Dokes decked Cougar quarterback Gary Shiede late in the first period with a jarring tackle which dampened BYU hopes but understudy Mark Giles almost bailed the Cougars out of trouble with his fourth-quarter efforts. Dokes picked up the outstanding defensive player trophy and Walker was chosen top offensive player as OSU dominated play in the second half. Score by Quarters Oklahoma State BYU

ORLANDO -- Billed as a showdown between Brigham Young pass-happy quarterback Gifford Nielsen and Oklahoma State running back Terry Miller, the Cowboy defense and Miller were the standouts in a 49-21 triumph for Oklahoma State. Defensive tackle Chris Dawson intercepted a Nielsen pass in the first quarter and returned it 36 yards for a TD. And while Nielsen completed 23-of-34 passes for 209 yards and a TD, he was intercepted three more times by defensive backs Milton Kirven, Gary Irons and Jerry Cramer. Meanwhile, Miller ran wild for 173 yards and had scoring jaunts of 78, 6, 3 and 1 yards. The Cowboys rolled up 402 yards total offense, including 375 on the ground, to rout BYU. Cowboy running back Robert Turner supported Miller’s running with 80 yards on 22 attempts and a TD, and All-America tackle Phillip Dokes led a parade of OSU defenders that kept constant pressure on Nielsen.

SHREVEPORT -- Oklahoma State’s nationally-ranked defense did its job for a while, but Texas A&M opened up late in the first half to score two quick touchdowns and went on to hand the Cowboys just their second bowl loss, 33-16, in the Independence Bowl.
1983 BLUEBONNET BOWL DECEMBER 31, 1983 | HOUSTON, TEXAS
OSU’s opportunistic offense turned an Aggie fumble into a 7-0 lead only minutes into the game. Defensive back Pete DiClementi recovered a fumble for the Pokes on A&M’s 25, and running back Ernest Anderson got the score several plays later on a one-yard plunge. The Aggies responded with the first of four David Hardy field goals to cut the margin to 7-3, but all-Big Eight kicker Larry Roach put OSU back up by seven, 10-3, with a 43-yarder of his own. Midway through the second period, Hardy closed the margin to 10-6, and moments later the Aggies scored two lightning quick cross-country aerial touchdowns to move to a 20-10 halftime lead. Two Hardy field goals upped that lead to 26-10 before the Cowboys drove 66 yards for Vince Orange’s five-yard TD burst. OSU was crippled by injuries to several running backs during the contest, and A&M showed its versatility with 223 rushing yards and 225 passing yards before a record 47,300. Linebacker Mike Green led OSU’s defense and was voted outstanding defensive player. Score by Quarters Texas A&M Oklahoma State

OSU held the Bears to just 134 yards on the ground and the Cowboy secondary picked off two passes to help seal the win. Touchdown passes from Hilger to Malcolm Lewis and Jamie Harris and a one-yard scoring run by Anderson gave OSU a 21-0 advantage before Baylor got on the scoreboard late in the first half. The Pokes added a Larry Roach field goal in the first half while Baylor found the endzone an additional time in the second to complete the scoring. 1 0 6

Hilger, who was later named MVP, left the game late in the first half with a slight concussion. He didn’t return but Anderson’s nifty running and another strong performance by the Cowboy defense kept Baylor at bay.

JACKSONVILLE -- After South Carolina overcame a 13-point Oklahoma State lead, the Cowboys stormed 88 yards to score the decisive touchdown on a bruising, 25-yard Rusty Hilgerto-tight end Barry Hanna pass play with just over a minute left in the game to hand OSU a 21-14 victory before a record crowd of 82,138 in the 40th Annual Gator Bowl. Hanna, who scored his only touchdown of the season on that play, banged off two tacklers and carried a few more into the end zone with him as he tip-toed down the sideline for the game-saving score. Earlier in the game, the Cowpokes bulled their way to a 13-0 lead. Freshman tailback Thurman Thomas, the game’s MVP when he rushed for 155 yards and a touchdown and passed for a TD, leaped over from one yard out at the end of O-State’s first possession. Then, early in the second quarter when it appeared the Gamecocks had stalled the Cowpokes at the Carolina six-yard line, Thomas took a Hilger pitch, ran right and suddenly stopped and threw back left to a wide open Hilger for the score. The conversion attempt was wide and it was a play to haunt the Pokes until Hanna’s heroics. Carolina regained the lead quickly in the third quarter on aerial bombs of 24 and 57 yards, but the rest of the time the stubborn Cowboy defense kept the Gamecock attack in a fog. OSU’s final drive was endangered only once, that on a fourth-and-sixth situation at midfield, but Hilger hit the reliable Hanna for 13 yards to the Carolina 36. Hilger mixed up the defense beautifully by sending Thomas up the middle on a draw play for 11 yards and then came heart-stopping magic on the TD pass to Hanna.

Following a blocked punt by OSU freshman Milton Cockrell a comeback seemed possible. However, the Cowboys could not mount a drive and were forced to punt. Florida State MVP quarterback Chip Ferguson then went to work again and nine plays later finalized the scoring on a one-yard keeper. OSU, losing for only the third time in ten postseason appearances, totaled 369 yards, but saw sophomore sensation Thurman Thomas limited to just 97 yards on 26 carries.

EL PASO -- In one of the most entertaining postseason games of the year, Oklahoma State rallied to defeat West Virginia 35-33 in the snow of the 1987 John Hancock Sun Bowl. The heroes for Oklahoma State were many but the list was topped by tailback Thurman Thomas who rushed for 157 yards on 33 carries and scored four touchdowns. It was a fitting way for the Cowboy All-American to end his collegiate career. He was named MVP of the bowl and played in front of a national television audience on CBS. It wasn’t easy for OSU, however. The Cowboys scored first on a five-yard run by Thomas, set up by a long Mike Gundy-to-Hart Lee Dykes pass play. West Virginia tied it 7-7 later in the first quarter, but OSU came back to take the lead 14-7 on a nine-yard run by Thomas. The OSU lead was short-lived. West Virginia scored two touchdowns and a field goal in the second quarter that went unanswered by Oklahoma State and the Mountaineers led 24-14 at the half. The Cowboys took the lead with 1:43 left in the third quarter on a six-yard pass from Gundy to J.R. Dillard and the successful PAT made it 28-27. The Cowboys took a 35-27 lead in the fourth quarter on a four-yard run by Thomas. O-State had to hold one more time, however, as West Virginia drove for a touchdown with just 1:13 left. OSU defender Shawn Mackey’s goal line tackle on the two-point conversion try stopped West Virginia from tying the game in the final minute. Score by Quarters Oklahoma State West Virginia

SAN DIEGO -- Touted as one of the great offensive showdowns of the ’88 season, Oklahoma State and Wyoming found themselves in a 7-7 deadlock at the conclusion of the first quarter of the Sea World Holiday Bowl.
Sanders rushed for 222 yards on 29 carries with five touchdowns – all Holiday Bowl records. Dykes broke the Holiday Bowl record for reception yardage, as he caught 10 passes for 163 yards, including a 25-yard strike from Gundy in the fourth quarter. Gundy completed 20-of-24 passes for 315 yards and two touchdowns and caught a 17-yard pass from Sanders to set up another score. Not only bowl records fell, though. Gundy’s 315 yards through the air set a school record, and the Cowboys’ 698 yards in total offense was the third-highest output in OSU history. OSU’s defense proved to be the biggest surprise of the contest, however, as they allowed Wyoming only 33 yards rushing and 204 yards in total offense. Sim Drain, named the Defensive Player of the Game, had four tackles and two sacks and led the OSU defense to its lowest yardage allowance since 1986. 1 7 7

But one set of Cowboys, the group from Stillwater, forged a 17-7 lead at halftime and broke the contest wide open in the third quarter on their way to a 62-14 romp. OSU’s high-powered offense was as explosive as ever, as the trio of Heisman winner Barry Sanders, All-American Hart Lee Dykes and Mike Gundy joined forces for the last time in front of a crowd of 60,718 at Jack Murphy Stadium.

SAN ANTONIO -- Oklahoma State earned its first postseason appearance since 1988 and a berth opposite Purdue in the Builders Square Alamo Bowl. The Big 12 vs. Big 10 showdown was tight through three quarters before Purdue sprinted past the Cowboys by a 33-20 margin. More than 55,000 were in the Alamo Dome, including 30,000-plus Orange-clad Cowboys fans. Oklahoma State drew first blood when Tim Sydnes connected on a 34-yard field goal with 5:31 left in the first quarter. The lead was short-lived, however, as Purdue scored on an 18-yard pass from Billy Dicken with 1:19 left in the initial quarter. Another Sydnes field goal brought OSU to within one, 7-6 before Purdue ended
the first-half scoring with a field goal of its own and a 10-6 halftime advantage. The second half opened with the teams trading touchdowns. Purdue scored first at the 12:02 mark on a one-yard run by Dicken. OSU answered with a 21-yard run by Jamaal Fobbs and trailed by a 16-13 margin with nine minutes left in the third. Purdue put the game away with two straight touchdowns and a 37-yard field goal. The Boilermakers led 33-13 when R.W. McQuarters scored on a 17-yard pass from Tony Lindsay with 55 seconds to play to account for the final margin. Score by Quarters Purdue Oklahoma State

HOUSTON — Rashaun Woods put on another memorable show for Oklahoma State, catching nine passes for 164 yards and a touchdown in a 33-23 victory over Southern Mississippi in the Houston Bowl. Woods earned Most Valuable Player and Offensive Player of the Game honors, helping the Cowboys complete a memorable season that included victories over Nebraska, Texas A&M and Oklahoma. Tatum Bell ran for 160 yards on 13 carries, including a 22-yard score with 8:07 to play that gave Oklahoma State the lead for good. Luke Phillips kicked two of his four field goals in the decisive fourth quarter for the Cowboys (8-5). Trailing 20-13 at the half, Southern Miss (7-6) took its only lead of the game on a 2-yard touchdown run by James Walley and a 30-yard field goal by Curt Jones, his third of the game, in the third quarter. The Cowboys pulled even on the first play of the fourth quarter on Phillips’ 28-yard field goal. Josh Fields threw for 310 yards, and his 33-yard pass to Billy Bajema set up Bell’s go-ahead touchdown, which put Oklahoma State back in front 30-23. Following a punt by Southern Mississippi to the Oklahoma State 2, Bell broke off a career-long 88-yard gain to the Golden Eagles 10. Phillips kicked a 24-yarder with 5:15 to play. He also connected from 46 and 52 yards. Woods highlighted Oklahoma State’s first half with a 51-yard touchdown catch from Fields with 1:38 left in the second quarter. Woods was double-covered on the play, but Southern Mississippi defenders Greg Brooks and Antoine Cash collided, allowing Woods to sprint untouched into the end zone.

The appearance at the Cotton Bowl was the first for the Cowboys since Jan. 1, 1945 and it marked OSU’s first January bowl game since Jan. 1, 1946 when the Cowboys won the Sugar Bowl.
Woods set Cotton Bowl records with 11 catches for 223 yards. On the 72-yard drive that ended with Morency’s second TD, he caught two passes for 63 yards, both on plays when cornerback Travis Johnson was called for pass interference and still couldn’t prevent the catches. Oklahoma State’s Josh Fields set a Cotton Bowl record with 307 yards on 21-of-33 passing. The junior’s touchdown gave him 55 in his career, breaking the school record set by offensive coordinator Mike Gundy (1986-89).

SAN ANTONIO — Justin Zwick, replacing the suspended Troy Smith, threw for 189 yards and a touchdown, and Ted Ginn Jr. and Lydell Ross each scored, leading No. 24 Ohio State to a 33-7 win over Oklahoma State in the 12th annual Alamo Bowl. Zwick, who lost the starting job to Smith after hurting his shoulder in the sixth game, completed 17 of 27 passes despite a mild hamstring pull. Ross rushed for 99 yards on 12 carries, and Mike Nugent kicked four field goals for the Buckeyes (8-4) to become the school’s career scoring leader. The Buckeyes took advantage of two early turnovers, and never let the Cowboys (7-5) get anything going offensively. Oklahoma State quarterback Donovan Woods completed 15 of 34 passes for 137 yards and rushed for another 80 yards. Vernand Morency, one of the nation’s top rushers this season, was limited to 24 yards on eight carries.

TEMPE -- In a season of full of offensive superlatives, even Oklahoma State fans had to be impressed by the juggernaut the Cowboys put on the field in the Insight Bowl. OSU scored touchdowns on its first five offensive possessions and generated 322 yards of offense in the first half on its way to a 49-33 victory over Indiana in the Cowboys’ second bowl win in two seasons. Zac Robinson, offensive MVP, ran for 70 yards and passed for 302 in one of the top total offense outputs in Oklahoma State history. Freshman Dez Bryant had 117 receiving yards and two touchdowns in the win. The Cowboys gouged the Hoosiers with five scoring drives, all less than four minutes in length, to take complete control of the game in the first half. Score by Quarters Indiana Oklahoma State

SAN DIEGO, Calif. - Oklahoma State quarterback Zac Robinson passed for a Cowboy bowl-record 329 yards despite playing most of the second half with a separated throwing shoulder and receiver Dez Bryant set a new Holiday Bowl record with 13 receptions for 167 yards and a touchdown despite badly injuring his left ankle in the second quarter, but it was not enough to push the Cowboys to victory over No. 15 Oregon, who won the 2008 Pacific Life Holiday Bowl, 42-31.

Behind Robinson and Bryant, the Cowboys raced out to a 17-7 lead after the first quarter, but the game changed when Bryant went down with his injury in the second. Neither team was able to muster any points in the second quarter, but a 91-yard kick return by Oregon’s Walter Thurmond to open the second half led to a 1-yard touchdown run by Duck quarterback Jeremiah Masoli. Oregon took the lead later in the quarter after Masoli struck with a 41-yard touchdown run.
Playing with a debilitating shoulder injury for most of the third quarter and the entire fourth quarter, Robinson was gutsy in bringing the Cowboys back for two more touchdown drives, but the Oregon defense made the stops it needed down the stretch to seal the Duck victory. Oregon was clearly the more physical team on both sides of the ball, with running back Jeremiah Johnson (119 rushing yards) and Masoli (106 rushing yards) both going crossing the century mark in the game. Playing after having his knee scoped after the regular-season finale vs. Oklahoma, Cowboy running back Kendall Hunter was clearly not himself with 13 carries for only 37 yards. He did punch in a pair of touchdowns from three yards and four yards, respectively.

ARLINGTON, Texas - In a game dominated by defense from the start, Mississippi was a 21-7 winner over Oklahoma State in the 2010 Cotton Bowl Classic. It was the first Cotton Bowl game played at the brand-new Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Oklahoma State’s defense recorded a goal-line stand and forced five turnovers (four interceptions and one fumble recovery), but it was not enough to overcome OSU’s seven turnovers. Senior linebacker Andre Sexton earned the game’s defensive most valuable player honor by bagging 10 tackles, one tackle for loss and two interceptions. Seniors Lucien Antoine and Terrance Anderson also added interceptions and defensive end Jermiah Price recovered a fumble. While the defense played well enough to win on most days, the OSU offense had trouble solving Ole Miss’s defense. The Cowboys went three-and-out on each of their first five drives and finished the game with only nine first downs. OSU’s lone score came on a one-yard pass from running back Keith Toston to tight end Wilson Youman in the third quarter that tied the game at 7-7. It was all Rebels from that point, however, as the Rebels scored two fourth-quarter touchdowns and forced Cowboy turnovers on each of OSU’s six possessions in the final stanza to derail the Cowboys’ comeback hopes.

SAN ANTONIO - Oklahoma State capped its magical 2010 season with a 36-10 win over Arizona at the Alamo Bowl. With the victory over the Wildcats, OSU put the finishing touches on the first 11win season in school history. Cowboy receiver Justin Blackmon earned Alamo Bowl Offensive MVP honors after making nine catches for 117 yards and two touchdowns and safety Markelle Martin was the Defensive MVP of the game with a 62-yard interception for a score to go with four tackles and two pass breakups. While the Oklahoma State offense - ranked No. 1 in the nation in total offense - got all the headlines and attention going into the game, it was the Cowboy defense that carried the day. OSU held the potent Arizona attack 20 points and 75 yards below its season averages. Additionally, the Cowboys forced four Wildcat turnovers and limited Arizona to 90 yards rushing. In addition to Martin’s Defensive MVP performance, OSU linebacker Orie Lemon finished with 14 tackles in helping lead a Cowboy defense that held Arizona to 10 points in the contest - the fewest points OSU had allowed in a bowl game since BYU mustered only six points against the Cowboys in the 1974 Fiesta Bowl. The Pokes jumped on the Wildcats early and held a 23-7 lead at the 12:33 mark of the second quarter. Arizona never threatened Oklahoma State as the Cowboys tacked on another touchdown and two more field goals in the second half. Score by Quarters Oklahoma State Arizona

GLENDALE, Ariz. - In a thrilling end to the 2011 season, No. 3 Oklahoma State was a 41-38 overtime winner over No. 4 Stanford in the Fiesta Bowl. The Cowboys never led in the game until the deciding 22-yard field goal from Quinn Sharp split the uprights in overtime, but they continually answered scoring drives from the potent Cardinal offense headlined by a two-time Heisman runner-up in quarterback Andrew Luck to stay within striking range. Receiver Justin Blackmon earned offensive MVP honors after making nine catches for 186 yards and a Fiesta Bowl-record three touchdown receptions. Perhaps his most important catch of the game was not a touchdown, but rather a 21-yard catch on fourth and three late in the game that set up the game-tying touchdown run by Joseph Randle that sent the game into overtime.
The Pokes held Stanford off the scoreboard on its final possession of regulation when Cardinal kicker Jordan Williamson hooked a 35yard field goal attempt wide left with no time on the clock. Williamson missed from 43 yards out in overtime to set up OSU’s winning drive. Cowboy quarterback Brandon Weeden connected with one-time walk-on Colton Chelf for a 24-yard reception on the second play of OSU’s overtime possession and when the officials signaled a touchdown, the Cowboy bench erupted with a mass of bodies spilling onto the field. The call was eventually reversed, sending everyone back to the sideline. Weeden then took a knee in the middle of the field to set up Sharp’s game winner. Score by Quarters Stanford Oklahoma State

OKLAHOMA STATE
58
DALLAS, Texas - Oklahoma State secured its third consecutive postseason victory when it steamrolled to a 58-14 win over Purdue in the Heart of Dallas Bowl played at Cotton Bowl Stadium. The most popular storyline entering the game was the question of if the Cowboys, who tied for third in the Big 12, would be motivated to face a Purdue squad that needed wins in each of its final three regular-season games just to secure bowl eligibility. OSU answered that question emphatically by jumping out to a 45-0 lead before finally surrendering a Boilermaker touchdown late in the third quarter. Another primary question entering the contest was if the Cowboy offense could operate smoothly without coordinator and playcaller Todd Monken, who left the team to take the head coaching position at Southern Miss after the regular season ended. With head coach Mike Gundy stepping in to call plays, OSU answered the doubters by registering the most lopsided margin of victory in any game during the 2012 bowl season. The Cowboy offense had little trouble putting points on the board, thanks largely to the OSU defense snatching a season-high five turnovers in the contest and regularly setting the offense up with favorable field position.

ARLINGTON, Texas - Trailing by three points with one minute left in the game, Oklahoma State drove to the Missouri 23 and was in position to either tie or take the lead, but a sack by Southeastern Conference Defensive Player of the Year Michael Sam generated a fumble that was recovered by Shane Ray and returned 73 yards for a touchdown to cap the Tigers’ 41-31 win over Oklahoma State in the 2014 AT&T Cotton Bowl. For the most part, both teams’ respective defenses controlled the game, with Missouri holding a 17-14 lead after three quarters. The offenses got uncorked in a wild fourth quarter, however, with the two teams combining for 41 points, two ties and four lead changes in the final stanza alone. OSU quarterback Clint Chelf set an AT&T Cotton Bowl Classic record with 377 passing yards, and with 151 passing yards and 60 rushing yards coming in the fourth quarter, Chelf appeared poised to lead the Cowboys to victory on that final drive, but Sam’s sack changed everything. OSU’s most recognizable players were at the forefront in the game, with consensus All-America cornerback Justin Gilbert recording an interception, receiver Tracy Moore making seven catches for 100 yards (including a diving, fully-extended grab late in the game that may have been the best catch of his career), and Josh Stewart adding eight catches for 80 yards and a touchdown. Safety Daytawion Lowe broke up a career-high three passes and defensive tackle Calvin Barnett had two tackles for loss and a sack. Though the game marked the 52nd all-time meeting between the two longtime Big Eight and Big 12 rivals, it was the first in a bowl game following Missouri’s move to the SEC in 2012.
