2015 SEASON PREVIEW

When Oklahoma State fielded the least experienced team in the nation last year, the growing pains were inevitable. But the way the Cowboys finished the season with wins over Oklahoma and Washington - and more importantly, how they did it - has created substantial buzz around the program going into 2015. Coach Mike Gundy welcomes back 11 offensive starters and eight defensive starters and his roster includes 20 returning letter-men on offense and 23 on defense. Entering the spring, only one position group (running back) has real questions that need answering. A glance at the roster reveals that the dominant trait of the 2015 Cowboys very well may be depth. In Mason Rudolph and J.W. Walsh, quarterback is in good hands. OSU re-turns nine of its 10 leading receivers from a year ago and returns four of the five offensive linemen who were most responsible for a remarkable late-season improvement from that group. On defense, the Cowboys are in very good shape on the defensive line (especially at defensive end), return two starters at linebacker, three starters at cornerback plus both starting safeties from a year ago. While overall depth appears to be a strong suit, nowhere is this more evident than at wide receiver and defensive end. At receiver, Brandon Sheperd finished 2014 playing like a bona fide star and James Washington is one of the most electric young playmakers in the

Big 12. They’re joined by a productive slot receiver in David Glidden and a host of other potential playmakers in Marcell Ateman, Jhajuan Seales, Chris Lacy and Austin Hays. At defensive end, Emmanuel Ogbah is back after earning Big 12 defensive lineman of the year honors a year ago, as is his rock-solid running mate, Jimmy Bean. Those two are supported by Trace Clark and a slew of up-and-comers who all appear ready to make a difference sooner rather than later in their respective careers. Gundy welcomed four new coaches into the fold during the offseason, bringing in Greg Adkins from the Buffalo Bills to coach offensive line, Marcus Arroyo from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to coach running backs, former FCS National Assistant Coach of the Year Jason McEndoo from Montana State to coach tight ends and Dan Hammerschmidt from Houston to coach safeties. Tim Duffie moved from coaching safeties the past two years to now coaching cornerbacks. The schedule shakes out such that the Cowboys welcome Baylor, TCU, Oklahoma, Kansas State and Kansas to Boone Pickens Stadium and go on the road to face Texas, Texas Tech, West Virginia and Iowa State.

THE BIGGEST JUMPThere is an old adage in sports that many players make their greatest strides

from their first year to their second year. What happens when most of a team’s starters on both sides of the ball fit into that description? Mike Gundy and

Oklahoma State will find out in 2015.

OFFENSE

OFFENSIVE LINE

Perhaps the most reliable constant of the Mike Gundy era at Oklahoma State has been solid play from the offensive line. However, for the first time since 2006, that wasn’t the case last season as the group struggled for the majority of the year before eventually finding its footing in the last three games. A closer look at that improvement:

So what does that mean for the spring of 2015, when well-respected first-year offensive line coach Greg Adkins inherits a group that includes four of the five starters from the final two games of last year? That remains to be seen, but there is reason for optimism that the group that turned things around for the Cowboy front essentially remains intact and has been bolstered by some notable additions. Defining one clear standout among the group may be a challenge, but tackle Zachary Crabtree is a good place to start. Only a sophomore filling out a 6-foot-7, 305-pound frame that is ideal for his position, Crabtree was an opening day starter at right tackle a year ago and went on to start the next four games as well before sustaining an injury against Iowa State that kept him out of the starting lineup for the next five games. He returned to the starting lineup for the final three contests. In the eight games that Crabtree started, Oklahoma State averaged 36.5 points and 438.0 yards of total offense per game. In the five games that he did not, the Cowboys averaged 13.4 points per game and 284.2 yards of total offense per game. The injury sustained by Crabtree last season opened the door for Michael Wilson to step into the starting lineup at right tackle and by the time the season ended, Wilson had started at four of the five positions on the offensive line, with the lone exception being center. Wilson settled in as the starter at left tackle for the final two games of last season, but is now a logical candidate to be utilized at left guard with the arrival of junior Victor Salako. Salako transferred to Oklahoma State from UAB last December after the school elected to disband its football program, and at 6-foot-6 and 330 pounds with two years of experience as a full-time starter at the FBS level, he is a strong candi-date to earn a spot in the starting rotation for the Cowboys. Now a junior, Paul Lewis started 12 games at center last year, but as the season progressed, he found himself sharing first-team reps, both in practice and in the games, with freshman walk-on Brad Lundblade. In fact, Lundblade actually earned a starting nod at Baylor in week 11. Both are back and both are candidates for heavy playing time again this year. One of the most intriguing prospects on the Cowboy offensive line is sophomore Jesse Robinson. At 6-foot-6 and 310 pounds, he is remarkably athletic and agile on his feet. Robinson redshirted in 2013 and was a second-teamer for the first 10 games of last season until an injury to Daniel Koenig thrust him into the first-team group at Baylor. He started from that point on and as was noted above, the Cowboy offense took off in those final three games with Robinson part of the group’s resurgence. If he continues in his development, he could become a viable option for some time. While nobody from the group of Brandon Pertile (6-foot-5, 310 pounds), Lemaefe Galea’i (6-foot-5, 325 pounds) or Matthew Mucha (6-foot-6, 285 pounds) saw the field for Oklahoma State last year, all three are candidates for playing time this year. Pertile transferred to OSU from Mesa CC, where he was regarded as one of the better guards in the junior college ranks last season, while Galea’i and Mucha both redshirted with the Cowboys. Both Galea’i and Mucha logged a good number of second-team reps on the practice field all season and were realistic candidates to see live game action if the situation dictated it necessary to pull their redshirts.

THE BOTTOM LINE

The offensive line lost a pair of starters from last year in Daniel Koenig and Chris Grisbhy, but has what it needs to be better up front. Given that the central figures involved in the late-season resurgence by last year’s group are back, there

is tangible, statistical reason for optimism. Don’t underestimate the potential impact that first-year coach Greg Adkins may have on this group as well. Adkins has more than enough high-level experience to make a significant difference.

2015 SEASON PREVIEW

QUARTERBACK If improved play from the big men up front wasn’t the primary key in Oklahoma State’s offensive improvement in the final three games of 2014, then the insertion of Mason Rudolph at quarterback was. Head coach Mike Gundy was forced to pull Rudolph’s redshirt leading up to the Cowboys’ week-11 battle with Baylor in Waco and from that point on, Oklahoma State’s offense started to look like what observers have come to expect during the Gundy era. Rudolph played Baylor’s celebrated senior quarterback Bryce Petty to a standstill, then quarterbacked the Cowboys to a Bedlam win over Okla-homa in Norman when nothing short of an upset victory over the Sooners would get the Pokes into a bowl game. Then he went on to lead OSU to victory over Washington in the Cactus Bowl. His 154.01 efficiency rating was by far the best among Oklahoma State quarterbacks last season, and he turned in an 85.1 QBR in leading the Cowboys to victory over the Huskies in the bowl game, according to ESPN. Perhaps even more remarkable is the fact that he did that damage against a Washington defense that finished the season ranked second in the nation in quarterback sacks. Baylor (17th nationally in quarterback sacks) was also one of the better teams in the country at harassing opposing quarterbacks. So what does that mean for 2015? It means that for the first time since Brandon Weeden was under center for the Cowboys, Mike Gundy has a clear-cut starter at quarterback going into the spring. But that doesn’t mean Rudolph is the only weapon in Gundy’s quarterback arsenal, because senior J.W. Walsh also returns after missing most of last season to injury. At the risk of perhaps oversimplifying things, Walsh’s injury had a devastating impact on the Cowboys’ offense last year. The areas where Walsh is at his best - running, extending plays and improvising - were a perfect mask to the areas where Oklahoma State’s offensive line had its worst struggles. There was no clearer evidence of that than in the season-opener against Florida State. The reigning national champion-Seminoles returned nearly every significant playmaker on defense from their 2013 title team that finished the previous season as the nation’s top team in scoring defense and pass defense. Yet the Noles’ vaunted pass rush was slowed down dramatically and kept at bay out of respect for Walsh’s ability to make plays with his feet. When Walsh was lost for the season in week two, the offensive line began to be exposed for its inability to protect a pure pocket passer in Daxx Garman or generate a straight-ahead running game, thus sending the Cowboy offense on its road to struggles. All that said, Walsh is back for his senior year and there is perhaps no player on the roster more respected than he in the locker room. With career stats that include a .622 completion percentage, 3,130 passing yards, 23 passing touch-downs, 5.5 yards per rush and 12 rushing touchdowns, Walsh is no charity case or locker room figurehead - he is a proven weapon that is not to be dismissed when discussing the Cowboy offense. Joining Rudolph and Walsh at quarterback are redshirt freshman walk-on Taylor Cornelius and true freshman early-enrollee John Kolar. A native of Norman, Okla., Kolar enrolled in January and will get valuable reps on the practice field as he learns OSU’s system.

THE BOTTOM LINE Quarterback figures to be an area of strength for Oklahoma State in 2015. Mason Rudolph created significant buzz with his work to cap the 2014 season and has earned the right to be tabbed as the starter entering the spring. Should he falter,

however, the Pokes are in the capable hands of a proven playmaker in senior J.W. Walsh.

RUNNING BACK Perhaps no position group at Oklahoma State offers more question marks than running back, where junior Rennie Childs is the only player who has carried any kind of workload at tailback, but even still, this this the first time in his career that he has been positioned higher than third on the depth chart. In 2013, he was behind Jeremy Smith and Desmond Roland and last year, he was behind Roland and Tyreek Hill, so this is his first real look at being a featured back. In a reserve role, Childs has averaged 4.1 yards per carry and has scored four rushing touchdowns in his career. To this point of his career, he has shown a one-cut and get up the field style. Joining Childs in the mix at tailback are walk-on Raymond Taylor, who logged 18 carries in mop-up duty late in games last year, junior college transfer Todd Mays, who enrolled early in order to compete for the job during spring ball, and Sione Palelei, who showed flashes on the practice field during fall camp last year before sustaining an injury that ended his season. Mays is the wild card of this bunch. He played quarterback, receiver and running back at East Mississippi CC and starred for a team that posted two consecutive 12-0 seasons and back-to-back NJCAA football national championships. First-year running backs coach Marcus Arroyo has this pool of players to essentially build a depth chart from scratch, because to this point, nobody has a body of work that clearly stands out from anyone else. While questions abound at tailback, at fullback, the Cowboys are in the capable hands of senior Jeremy Seaton, who to this point of his career has split action between fullback and tight end. Though he has never rushed the ball as a Cowboy, Seaton has become an effective weapon in the passing game, logging 13 receptions for 162 yards in 2014.

THE BOTTOM LINE The story is yet to be written for Oklahoma State’s running backs. This is a position that could still be fluid even into the fall. Rennie Childs is the closest thing to a known commodity. The incoming class of recruits that includes Todd Mays and

junior college standout Chris Carson will have a say in what happens here.

2015 SEASON PREVIEW

WIDE RECEIVER If running back is the position group with the most question marks, then wide receiver may be the one with the least. Oklahoma State returns a strong pack of wideouts, some of whom have already proven themselves as playmakers on Saturdays. Wide receiver would appear to be one of OSU’s greatest positions of strength entering 2015. Back for the Cowboys are nine of their top 10 receivers from a year ago, highlighted by seniors David Glidden and Brandon Sheperd and sophomore James Washington. Glidden led the team with 42 receptions a year ago and was OSU’s most reliable target throughout the season. A quick twitch-style of player who has a fluent understanding of the offense, Glidden was recognized as the team’s offensive MVP in 2014. Sheperd led the team with 737 receiving yards last season, but while that season total may not look remarkable, it should be noted that when the Cowboys were at their best at the end of the season, Sheperd was the receiver doing the most damage. In OSU’s Bedlam win at Oklahoma, Sheperd made seven receptions for 156 yards and had two touch-downs, including a critical 43-yard score in which he fought off double-coverage to make a catch, shoved one Sooner to the ground and spun off a second to march into the end zone with 4:51 left to breathe life into the Cowboys, who went on to win the game. He followed that up with a five-catch, 98-yard performance in the Cactus Bowl win over Washington in which he connected with Rudolph for another long score. Put simply, Sheperd looked every bit the part of a star receiver in OSU’s last two games and rides significant positive momentum into 2015. Though still on the front end of his career, James Washington provided ample reason for optimism as a true freshman in 2014 with 28 catches for 456 yards and a team-best six touchdown receptions. His six touchdown receptions ranked him fourth nationally among true freshmen. He did the bulk of his damage in the vertical passing game and is a good complement to Sheperd in that both have already proven their ability to make big plays on the outside. Washington turned in the most productive receiving day for a Cowboy freshman since Dez Bryant when he made four catches for 114 yards and a touchdown against a Baylor squad that entered the game ranked 14th nationally in total defense. Highlighted by a 68-yard touchdown reception, Washington’s 114 receiving yards against the Bears that night were the third-most ever for an OSU freshman, trailing only Bryant’s 155 yards vs. Kansas and 117 yards vs. Indiana in 2007. He joined Bryant, Marcellus Rivers and Hart Lee Dykes as the only freshmen in OSU history to post a 100-yard receiving day. Long story short, Washington can play and will likely be an important part of the Cowboy passing attack in 2015. While Glidden, Sheperd and Washington have already earned the right to be called dangerous playmakers, OSU has a stable of other receivers who could reasonably be expected to join them in 2015, starting with juniors Marcell Ateman, Jhajuan Seales and Austin Hays. At 6-foot-4 and 210 pounds with the ability to jump, Ateman has some of the raw tools needed to be a serious problem for opposing defenses on the perimeter and in the red zone, but he hasn’t yet had the kind of impact that he is capable of. Now an upperclassman, Ateman is developing in his understanding of how defenses work and some of the tricks of the trade to help himself get open. With continued development in those two areas, it’s not a stretch to think he can signifi-cantly improve upon his totals of 20 catches and 268 yards from last year. That said, one area where he has demonstrated the ability to be a difference-maker in games is his ability to block down the field. Seales went into last year as the team’s leading returning receiver and shouldered some of the load of expectations that came with that. But in retrospect, perhaps it was premature to heap that kind of weight on him. Seales’ productivity was just average in 2014 (18 catches for 278 yards and three touchdowns), but similar to Ateman, it isn’t a reach to think that he could do much more in 2015. As a freshman in 2013, Seales hauled in 39 receptions for 571 yards and three touchdowns, so he has already shown the ability to make plays. A strong offseason could thrust Seales into more of a leadership role this fall. Injuries made it so Hays never really got a fair chance to show what he can do in 2014. He played in 10 games and finished with nine receptions for 57 yards, but those numbers don’t do justice to the kind of impact that he can have when healthy. Consider that as a true freshman in 2012, Hays made 29 receptions for 394 yards and two touchdowns. He lost almost all of 2013 to injury and was a shadow of himself in 2014. If he can stay healthy, Hays can make a significant dif-ference for the Cowboy receiving corps, not just on the stat sheet, but also because of his ability to block and because of the fact that he can factor prominently into the depth of the position group with his ability to play all of the receiver positions within the framework of OSU’s offense. A player who did not receive much attention last season but who should not be dismissed heading into 2015 is Chris Lacy. Lacy is remarkably smart and has some of the tools needed to be a player. Others who will get some reps in the offseason and have a reasonable chance to warrant some playing time in games include redshirt freshman Keenen Brown, junior C.J. Curry, redshirt freshman Cole Neph and senior Kameron Doolittle.

THE BOTTOM LINE Oklahoma State has plenty of good options at wide receiver and does not want for much in this area. The Cowboys have proven playmakers on the outside and in the slot. As the offensive line and quarterback play improved late last year, the talent of the receivers - most notably Brandon Sheperd - came to the fore. It’s reasonable to expect increased produc-

tion from this group in 2015.

TIGHT END Over the span of the past couple recruiting cycles, Mike Gundy has quietly stockpiled the Oklahoma State roster with players who can make a difference at the tight end position. OSU’s offense, previously known for outside threats such as All-Americans and Biletnikoff Award-winners like Dez Bryant and Justin Blackmon, began to show its flexibility in 2014 by regularly incorporating Blake Jarwin and Jeremy Seaton as regular contributors from the tight end position. Those two

2015 SEASON PREVIEW

return in 2015 and are bolstered by the addition of tight end-turned-offensive-lineman-back-to-tight-end Zac Veatch and redshirt freshman Jordan Frazier. Based purely on their contributions last season, the most likely scenario at this position is that Jarwin and Seaton get the bulk of the reps, with Veatch used primarily as a blocker. At 6-foot-5, 242 pounds and very athletic with good hands and light feet, Jarwin may just be scratching the surface of what he is capable of. He made five receptions for 107 yards with a touchdown last season. His 21.4 yards-per-reception figure stands out as reason to believe that he is capable of being a damaging figure to opposing defenses. As for Seaton, his role in the passing game took off as last year progressed. Of his 13 receptions in 2014, nine came in the final four weeks of the season. Seaton has split time between tight end and fullback and is a candidate to do it again in 2015. Veatch at tight end is intriguing. He played tight end in high school, but was converted to offensive line as a freshman in 2013, where he eventually ascended into the starting lineup for 10 games in 2014. He was moved back to tight end for the final two games of last season, where he remains going into 2015. What makes him interesting is the fact that he is a natural tight end, but now has the added mentality and tactics of an offensive lineman. He is much different stylistically than Jarwin or Seaton, but could be a good complement, given his diverse skill set. Entering into the mix this year is Jordan Frazier, who redshirted last year but will get some reps during the offseason to show what he is capable of.

THE BOTTOM LINE Tight end is a position where Mike Gundy’s philosophy has morphed to suit his personnel over the years. Brandon Pettigrew was an All-American for the Cowboys in this very spot in 2007 and 2008 and went on to be a first-round pick in

the NFL Draft. When he left, OSU all but abandoned the tight end spot and went to an Air Raid-inspired system. It has now come back to OSU using tight ends as a regular part of the offense and with proven playmakers Blake Jarwin and Jeremy

Seaton back in 2015 and joined by Zac Veatch and Jordan Frazier, there are some options to choose from.

DEFENSE

DEFENSIVE LINE There is bad news and there is good news on the Oklahoma State defensive line going into 2015. The bad news is that James Castleman and Ofa Hautau are gone. How valuable were those two? Castleman started 37 games in his four-year career and Hautau was honored as the team’s overall MVP in 2014. The good news is that the Cowboy front is as deep as it has ever been during the Mike Gundy era. Junior defensive end Emmanuel Ogbah, the 2014 Big 12 defensive lineman of the year and a 2014 first-team All-Big 12 honoree by both the coaches and by the media who cover the league, is the headliner of this group. While Hautau was recognized as the team’s overall MVP last season, Ogbah was singled out as the team’s defensive MVP - and for good reason. Ogbah ranked third in the Big 12 and 24th nationally in tackles for loss per game (1.3) and second in the Big 12 and 15th nationally in sacks per game (0.85). He recorded 5.5 tackles for loss in the Cowboys’ win at Kansas, which set an OSU single-game record and was the most tackles for loss for any player in the country in a single game in 2014. Ogbah introduced himself to a national audience when he enjoyed a breakthrough performance with six tackles, two sacks, two tackles for loss and two pass-breakups against top-ranked Florida State. At one point of the season, Ogbah produced a stretch where he recorded at least one sack in six consecutive games. At the other defensive end spot is senior Jimmy Bean, who has started every game the past two seasons. Bean’s nine career quarterback hurries rank as the seventh-most in school history. Additionally, he has registered 78 tackles, 15.5 tack-les for loss and eight sacks during his career. He has performed well in big games, highlighted by his performance against Missouri in the 2014 Cotton Bowl in which he recorded seven tackles, three tackles for loss and a sack. The bottom line is this - Oklahoma State’s defensive ends have a proven track record of making plays and are a formidable tandem. If there is a question mark in this group, it’s this - can defensive line coach Joe Bob Clements get production from whomever it is that starts on the inside of the defensive front, because regardless of who that person is, he will be a first-time starter. Based on their careers to this point, sophomores Vili Leveni and Vincent Taylor have the inside track, but don’t discount junior college transfer Motekiai Maile, who enrolled early and will participate in spring practice after transferring from Tyler Junior College. Leveni and Taylor got most of the second-team reps last year and were solid in their role, with Leveni recording 16 tackles, 4.5 tackles for loss, a sack and a quarterback hurry and Taylor adding 13 tackles and one tackle for loss. Maile was a first-team all-conference performer last season who chose to attend Oklahoma State over offers from TCU, Mississippi State and Arizona State. Though the OSU defensive line features a bona fide standout in Ogbah and a rock-solid running mate in Bean, it may be the depth of this group that is its best attribute - especially at defensive end. Senior Trace Clark is a very solid backup who would be a starter most any other season. He has 32 tackles and 3.5 tackles for loss during his career. A trio of red-shirt freshmen defensive ends - Trey Carter, Jarrell Owens and Cole Walterscheid - are players to watch this spring. Carter and Owens consistently gave the OSU offensive line fits as members of the scout team last year and Walterscheid added 32 pounds to his frame in less than one year in the Cowboy football strength and conditioning program. By the time bowl practice came, Walterscheid was causing disruption at a similar rate as Carter and Owens. All three gave ample reason to believe that they will be contributors early on in their respective careers.

2015 SEASON PREVIEW

Junior Eric Davis and sophomore Ben Hughes are candidates to see extended reps at defensive tackle during the spring and can go a long way toward securing a role on gameday should they perform well this offseason.

THE BOTTOM LINEOklahoma State has proven playmakers and promising up-and-comers on its defensive line, especially at defensive end. Emmanuel Ogbah is as good as there is in the Big 12 and is worthy of being included in preseason All-America discus-sions. Should OSU get production from the interior of its defensive front, the sky may be the limit for this collective unit.

LINEBACKER Defensive coordinator and linebackers coach Glenn Spencer has reason to be optimistic about his linebacking corps going into 2015. Senior and three-year letterman Ryan Simmons - who Spencer referred to as the heart and soul of last year’s defense - is back at middle linebacker and brings 26 career starts with him. Simmons started every game the last two years. No returning Cowboy has more career tackles than Simmons, who has made 189 career stops. Included in that total are 25.5 tackles for loss, which also leads the team. He made 96 tackles and had 12.0 for loss last season, but while he was productive on the stat sheet, it was his ability to lead and quickly adapt to a completely different defensive scheme than he was used to that drew the most praise from Spencer. In 2013, Simmons was part of an aggressive, attacking-style OSU defense, but after that bunch sustained losses to graduation and the NFL Draft and was forced to compete with inexperienced players in 2014, the coaches asked him to play in more of a Tampa 2 set in which he often times dropped way back into coverage. In both scenarios - attacking and dropping back - Simmons proved his ability to make plays and just like in 2014, he is once again expected to be a rock of the defense in 2015. Junior Seth Jacobs, also a starter from last year, returns as well after earning defensive MVP honors as part of OSU’s Cactus Bowl win over Washington. From his weakside linebacker spot, Jacobs finished 2014 third on the team with 92 tackles and added 6.5 tackles for loss, two interceptions, five pass breakups, two quarterback hurries and two forced fumbles. At the end of last season, Jacobs was honored by the OSU coaching staff as the defensive recipient of the team’s Barry Sanders Award, presented to the player with the most contribution with the least recognition. While Simmons and Jacobs are well-positioned to be starters in 2015, the third starting spot is more fluid. That said, Spencer will be choosing from a strong pool of candidates. Perhaps a better question than who will be the third starter is what does Spencer want to do with that position. If he wants a faster, more agile player there (which has typically been his preference), then junior college transfer Jordan Burton (6-foot-3, 215 pounds) or sophomore Kirk Tucker (6-foot-2, 195 pounds) would be candidates. Burton ranked among the top 10 players nationally in the junior college ranks with 10.8 tackles per game last season at Kilgore JC and Tucker was a special teams standout who played meaningful reps at linebacker late in the season. Sophomore Gyasi Akem (6-foot-1, 215 pounds) may also get a look. If Spencer wants to go with a bigger, more powerful frame at that third linebacker spot, then Justin Phillips (six-foot, 220 pounds) would be a candidate, along with veteran Kris Catlin. Similar to Tucker, Phillips was a standout on special teams who broke into the defensive playing time rotation late in the season last year. Other names to know in terms of potential for meaningful playing time include senior Devante Averette, sophomore Chad Whitener and redshirt freshman Josh Mabin. Averette was pegged to start last season before an injury derailed that opportunity. He did play in two games in 2014, but welcomes this year’s opportunity to show what he can do when at full speed. Whitener is an interesting prospect in that he is a power-five transfer from California who sat out last season per NCAA transfer regulations. The Mansfield, Texas, native played some as a true freshman for the Golden Bears and even recovered a fumble in a Pac-12 game against Oregon State. Mabin was enjoying a very impressive fall camp last year before he was lost for the season to injury. Should he return to that same form, he would appear to be a candidate to be a multi-year playmaker for OSU.

THE BOTTOM LINE Ryan Simmons and Seth Jacobs are the leaders of this group. Simmons is a two-year starter and three-year letterwin-

ner. It’s unclear what to expect beyond those two, but this much is certain: whoever gets the third starting spot will have earned it, because there are several good, fairly evenly-matched candidates in the pool. Regardless of who starts and who doesn’t, linebacker appears to be a position group that is deep enough to where Glenn Spencer can roll different players

on and off the field and feel good about what he has out there.

CORNERBACK With three players who have logged extensive playing time returning in his position group, first-year cornerbacks coach Tim Duffie (formerly OSU’s safeties coach the past two seasons) knows exactly what he’s working with. Perhaps the big-gest unknown will be who between junior Ashton Lampkin and Ramon Richards will start opposite senior Kevin Peterson. But first, to Peterson. A three-year letterman who has started 25 games in his career, he is part of the core leadership group not only of the defense, but of the team as a whole. Peterson has recorded 103 tackles, intercepted four passes and broken up 17 passes in his career. A starter opposite 2013 NFL first-round draft pick Justin Gilbert as a sophomore in 2013, Peterson had high expectations going into last season. While he had his moments - most notably holding West Vir-ginia All-America receiver Kevin White to three catches for 27 yards - the 2014 season did not live up to the lofty standard that Peterson set for himself. A strong offseason could position Peterson among the best cornerbacks in the Big 12 going into 2015 and he is certainly one to consider for preseason recognition. As for Lampkin and Richards, this is where the depth of OSU’s cornerback position shows up. Regardless of who

STATE OF THE PROGRAM

Since 2009, Oklahoma State has six first-round NFL Draft picks, a total that leads the Big 12 and trails only Alabama, Florida and LSU nationally. A closer look:

runs with the first team, Duffie will have a returning starter at his fingertips to use in nickel sets. Lampkin was the opening day starter in 2014 and held that position until being lost for the season to injury in week four. Richards, a converted high school quarterback who was originally ticketed to redshirt in order to learn a new position, was then thrown into the mix - probably much earlier than his development would have dictated, yet he rewarded the coaches by growing into a viable performer by year’s end. He finished his freshman year with 42 tackles, three interceptions (one of which he returned for a touchdown at Kansas State) and four pass breakups. What Richards experienced early on was difficult at the time, but it accelerated his development and will likely be invaluable to him as his career progresses. Beyond those three, the cornerback position also includes senior Miketavius Jones and sophomores Darius Curry and Jerel Morrow as players who will get a good look this spring and who will likely factor into the playing time rotation during the season.

THE BOTTOM LINE Oklahoma State has three perfectly good options to start at cornerback in Kevin Peterson, Ashton Lampkin and Ramon Richards. All three have already been starters for the Cowboys and bring a wealth of experience at a position group that is

deep with candidates for meaningful playing time.

SAFETY There were all kinds of question marks at safety going into the 2014 season, but at least one of those question marks was replaced with an exclamation point considering how well Jordan Sterns, now a junior, played in his first year as a starter. Sterns led the team with 103 tackles, and in doing so, became the first Oklahoma State underclassman in 18 years to reach the 100-tackle mark. That total ranked eighth in the Big 12 and second among the conference’s underclassmen. Against West Virginia, he recorded 20 tackles, a half-tackle for loss and a pass breakup. His 20 tackles that day 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 recorded 20 or more tackles in a game during the 2014 season - Sterns was the only under-classman to do it. What does that all mean? It means Jordan Sterns is a player and he’s not afraid to throw himself into the mix and make plays. Joining Sterns on the back end of the Cowboy defense is sophomore Tre Flowers, who started six games last year. Flowers registered 56 tackles, two tackles for loss and three pass breakups and he did it in somewhat similar fashion to Richards in that he may have been put into the mix before he was fully ready. With a year of big-time reps now to his credit, Flowers is well-positioned to be a playmaker on the Cowboy defense in 2015. Junior Deric Robertson and sophomore Dylan Harding are candidates for playing time as well. Robertson has played significant reps at safety, but to this point, both he and Harding have made their most notable contributions on special teams. A young player who stands to benefit from a productive offseason is redshirt freshman Tre Roberts.

THE BOTTOM LINE Jordan Sterns provided reason for excitement with his performance as a sophomore. He led the team in tackles and

was a consistent difference-maker in the secondary. Tre Flowers saw significant action as well filling in as a starter when Larry Stephens was lost to injury. Now Flowers has a chance to earn the starting spot outright, though Deric Robertson is

not to be dismissed when considering candidates for a starting role.

SPECIALISTS Junior Ben Grogan headlines Oklahoma State’s group of specialists, but he is not the only returning starter in this area. Sophomore Kaleb Smith, who handled snaps on placements, is back, as is senior Josh Elias, who snaps on punts. The only specialist not returning from a year ago is punter/kickoff man Kip Smith. Grogan was perhaps the most improved player on the OSU roster from 2013 to 2014 and he was recognized as one of 20 national semifinalists for the Lou Groza Award presented to the nation’s top kicker. Though he started the season by missing three of his first five field goal attempts, he made 20 of his last 23, highlighted by a game-winning 21-yarder in overtime to lift OSU to victory over Oklahoma in Norman. His 22 field goals made in 2014 is the third-best single-season mark in school history. Candidates to replace Smith include redshirt freshman Zach Sinor and walk-on Matt Hockett, neither of whom have seen game action to this point of their careers. Sinor was generally regarded as the top punter coming out of the state of Texas after his senior year at Medina Valley HS. Hockett was an all-state selection by The Oklahoman and the coaches at Norman HS.

THE BOTTOM LINE With Ben Grogan, Josh Elias and Kaleb Smith in place, the Cowboys are set at kicker and snapper. Areas to fill during

the offseason include punter, kickoff specialist and holder.

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 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 37 games in the last four years and 48 games in the last five.

►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.

►The Cowboys rank 10th nationally with 66 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.

►Seventeen Gundy-era Cowboys have been drafted into the NFL, with six of those 17 chosen in the first round.

►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 TCU offensive coordinator Doug Meacham and Texas A&M offensive coordinator Jake Spavital.

►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.

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 2015, 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 72-29. Gundy has coached 14 first-team All-Americans and four individual national award winners during his 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 nine straight seasons (2006-14) 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.

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.

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.

His record of 84-44 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.

GUNDY AS A HEAD COACHIn 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.

In 2013, Gundy led the Cowboys to a second-place finish in the Big 12 and an appearance in the AT&T Cotton Bowl. That team went 10-3 to produce the third 10-win season in a four-year span.

Mike Gundy first arrived on the Oklahoma State campus in 1986 after a heavily-decorated prep career. He became a four-year 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 Conference’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 Gundy’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 (1939-49) and Floyd Gass (1969-71) were the others.

Gundy and his wife, Kristen (also an OSU graduate), have three children, Gavin, Gunnar and Gage.

MARCUS ARROYORUNNING BACKS

FIRST YEAR AT OSU | 13TH YEAR OVERALL

SAN JOSE STATE, 2003

►Marcus Arroyo spent last season as quarterbacks coach for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. After a health procedure sidelined Bucs offensive coordinator Jeff Tedford, Arroyo was thrust into the role of Tampa Bay’s play caller.

►Arroyo came to Tampa Bay following one season (2013) as the offensive coordinator and outside receivers coach at Southern Mississippi, where his primary duties included creating the offensive game plans and play calling on game day.

►Prior to joining the Southern Mississippi coaching staff, Arroyo spent two years (2011-2012) at the University of California as the passing game coordinator.

►Under Arroyo’s guidance, Cal quarterback Zach Maynard worked himself into the No. 10 spot on the career list at the school in both passing yards (5,204) and total offense (5,350) in only two seasons. His 128.36 career passer efficiency rating is eighth on the school’s all-time list.

►Cal had a much improved offense in 2011 during Arroyo’s first-year of working with the team’s quarterbacks, especially in the passing game where the Golden Bears jumped from No. 94 in the country in 2010 (175.08 ypg) to No. 46 in the country in 2011 (246.62 ypg).

►Cal also rose from No. 90 nationally (334.00 ypg) to No. 44 nationally (401.46 ypg) in total offense in his first season. In addition, Cal moved up 20 spots to No. 53 nationally in scoring, improving from 25.8 points per game the previous season to 28.3.

►Before coaching at California, Arroyo served for two seasons at Wyoming as offensive coordinator and quarterbacks’ coach during the 2009 and 2010 campaigns. He helped develop 2009 true freshman quarterback Austyn Carta-Samuels into the Mountain West Conference Freshman of the Year and the Offensive MVP of the 2009 New Mexico Bowl. Carta-Samuels completed 59.7 percent of his passes in two campaigns under Arroyo’s guidance.

►Arroyo made a significant impact in his first season at Wyoming in 2009 when he installed a new spread offense that helped the Cowboys score 30 or more points five times, winning all five of those games. Arroyo’s offense displayed an ability to come from behind in his first season, recording five fourth-quarter comebacks. His offensive unit also did an outstanding job of protecting the ball. Wyoming ranked No. 7 in the nation in fewest turnovers lost (14) and was No. 15 nationally in both fewest fumbles lost (7) and fewest interceptions thrown (7).

►When Wyoming captured the 2009 New Mexico Bowl title, it marked the second time in four seasons that Arroyo was part of a New Mexico Bowl winning team. His other victory in the game came in 2006 while he was coaching at San Jose State.

►Prior to his stint at Wyoming, Arroyo was the co-offensive coordinator for two seasons and quarterbacks coach for three campaigns at his alma mater, San Jose State. He was the quarterbacks’ coach and play-caller for the Spartans in 2006, before being promoted to co-offensive coordinator for his final two seasons in 2007 and 2008 under head coach Dick Tomey.

►From 2006-07, Arroyo tutored the Spartans’ all-time leading passer and total offense leader Adam Tafralis, who set school records for career passing yards (7,548) and total offense (8,111). Tafralis went on to sign a free agent contract with the Indianapolis Colts of the NFL in the spring of 2008. He also played three seasons (2008-10) with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats of the Canadian Football League, and spent time on the rosters of both the United Football League’s Sacramento Mountain Lions (2011) and the CFL’s Toronto Argonauts (2012) before his retirement from football.

►Arroyo also spent one season at San Jose State in 2005 as a graduate assistant coach on the offensive side of the ball before being elevated to a full-time assistant in 2006.

►Arroyo began his collegiate coaching career in 2003, serving as an undergraduate assistant coach at his alma mater for one year. In 2004, he was the offensive coordinator at Prairie View A&M, an NCAA Division I Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) team in Prairie View, Texas.

►A native of Sacramento, Calif., Arroyo was a three-year letterman at San Jose State, where he played quarterback from 1998-2002. In 2000, he passed for 2,334 yards and 15 touchdowns. He led the Spartans to seven wins that season, which was the most they had compiled in eight seasons.

►Arroyo graduated with a degree in kinesiology from San Jose State.

PERSONAL

►He and his wife, Kelly, were married on July 9, 2010. Kelly began her collegiate athletic career as a volleyball player at Southern Oregon and later was a swimmer at San Jose State.

JOE BOB CLEMENTSDEFENSIVE LINE

THIRD YEAR AT OSU | 17TH 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 continued in 2014, with Clements’ defensive linemen combining to record 23.5 of OSU’s 33 sacks and 50.5 of the Cowboys’ 97 tackles for loss.

►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).

►The Cowboys forced 33 turnovers in Clements’ first year, with defensive linemen responsible for six fumbles forced, four fumbles recovered and two blocked kicks.

►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.

►Clements broke into coaching as a student assistant at K-State in 1999, was elevated to a graduate assistant post with the Wildcats in 2001 and earned his first full-time coaching position when Bill Snyder promoted him to K-State defensive ends coach in 2003.

►Clements played defensive end at K-State from 1994-98. 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.

PERSONAL

►Clements and his wife, Pelusa, have four children, Orianna, Chance, Emma and Kaden.

►A 29-year coaching veteran who comes to OSU after coaching running backs at the University of Houston in 2014, Dan Hammerschmidt played safety at Colorado State from 1982-85 before breaking into the coaching ranks as a student assistant with the Rams in 1986.

►He served as a graduate assistant at TCU in 1987 before earning his first full-time appointment at Duke, where he coached outside linebackers, special teams and the secondary from 1988-94. He helped the Blue Devils to a pair of bowl appearances in 1989 and 1994.

►He coached the secondary at Virginia Military Institute in 1995 before returning to his alma mater, where he coached the Colorado State receivers from 1996-2000. He moved into the role of co-offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach and served in that capacity from 2001-07.

►With Hammerschmidt on staff, CSU appeared in seven bowl games and quarterback Bradlee Van Pelt earned Mountain West Conference Offensive Player of the Year accolades in 2002 and 2003. Eight of Hammerschmidt’s pupils at CSU earned all-conference accolades.

►He coached wide receivers at Rice in 2008, and his one year with the Owls resulted in Jarrett Dillard becoming the first Owl to earn All-America honors from the Football Writers Association of America since 1958. Buoyed by the 20 touchdown receptions he made with Hammerschmidt as his position coach, Dillard finished his career as the NCAArs all-time leader with 59 career touchdown receptions.

WASHINGTON STATE, 1998

►The 2011 American Football Coaches Association FCS Assistant Coach of the Year, Jason McEndoo spent 12 seasons as an assistant coach at Montana State prior to coming to Oklahoma State. His 12 years at Montana State make him the longest-tenured assistant coach in Bobcat football history.

►In 2014, Montana State ranked seventh among all FCS schools with 244.4 rushing yards per game, was ninth in the FCS with 488.6 yards of total offense per game and was 11th in the FCS with 38.2 points per game.

►McEndoo coached seven Bobcat All-Americans and 11 first team All-Big Sky selections, including Jeff Bolton, an All-America center who earned the 2005 Rimington Award as Division I-AA’s top player at that position.

►He also coached 2010 consensus All-America Mike Person (a seventh round choice by San Francisco in the 2011 NFL Draft), and 2012 first-team All-Big Sky and honorable mention All-America choice Shaun Sampson.

►In 2011, two Bobcat O-linemen – Conrad Burbank and Alex Terrien – earned All-America honors.

GLENN SPENCERDEFENSIVE COORDINATOR/LINEBACKERS

EIGHTH YEAR AT OSU | 28TH YEAR OVERALL

GEORGIA TECH, 1987

►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 66-25 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.

►Cornerback Justin Gilbert was a 2013 finalist for the Jim Thorpe Award given to the nation’s top defensive back and he was joined by defensive tackle Calvin Barnett and linebacker Caleb Lavey on the 2013 first-team All-Big 12 squad as chosen by the Associated Press. Linebacker Shaun Lewis was a first-team All-Big 12 honoree as selected by the Big 12 coaches.

►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 Cowboy defensive lineman to earn first-team All-Big 12 honors.

►Under Spencer’s guidance, middle linebacker Orie Lemon exploded onto the national stage in 2010. A first-team 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

record that included Gulf South Conference championships and NCAA Division II playoff appearances in 1998 and 2000. The American Football Coaches Association honored him as the NCAA Division II Region Coach of the Year in 1998 after he coached the Braves to a 10-2 record. He led the team to an 8-3 mark in 1999 and a 10-2 record in 2000 and left West Georgia with a Gulf South Conference-record .800 winning percentage.

►Spencer started his coaching career as an assistant at West Georgia in 1990. He coached the defensive line and linebackers for seven years before taking over as defensive coordinator in 1997 when the Braves captured the school’s first Gulf South Conference title while establishing a single-season school record for scoring defense. Spencer was inducted into the West Georgia Hall of Fame in the summer of 2014.

PERSONAL►A native of Douglasville, Ga., Spencer graduated from Lithia Springs High School before lettering four seasons as a defensive tackle at Georgia Tech from 1982-85. He helped the Yellow Jackets to a 9-2-1 mark and a 17-14 win over Michigan State in the All-American Bowl his senior year.

►A 1987 graduate of Georgia Tech with a bachelor’s degree in management, Spencer has two sons, Luke and Abraham. He and his wife, ESPN reporter Jeannine Edwards Spencer, were married in July of 2013.

MIKE YURCICHOFFENSIVE COORDINATOR/QUARTERBACKS

THIRD YEAR AT OSU | 17TH OVERALL

CALIFORNIA (PA.), 1999

►Mike Yurcich joined the Oklahoma State coaching staff in February of 2013 after serving as offensive coordinator at Shippensburg University from 2011-12.

►In his first year at OSU, the Cowboys ranked 14th nationally by averaging 39.1 points per game. 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 sixth-best 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.

►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).

►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 four-time all-Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference West selection who signed a free agent contract with the NFL’s Jacksonville Jaguars.

►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.

►Edinboro averaged at least 30 points per game from 2007-09 and consistently ranked among Division II’s top offenses with Yurcich calling plays.

►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 and in the Cactus Bowl against Washington in the first three 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 second-largest fourth-quarter come-from-behind victory in school history as part of their 38-35 overtime win over the No. 18 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 32.0 points and 418.3 yards of total offense per game in the final three contests, all of which were away from home against quality opponents ... In his debut against 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) ... In the Cactus Bowl against Washington, he had his best outing of the year with 299 passing yards (the most ever for a Cowboy freshman in a bowl game) and two touchdowns.

High School: Coached by Kyle Richardson at Northwest-ern 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 intercep-tion ...

2014 SEASON REVIEW STORY

There is a prominently-placed sign near the north entrance to Oklahoma State's Gallagher-Iba Arena that quotes Ed Gal-lagher: "If you don't make any sacrifices, you won't give a care whether you win or not."

Those words shed some light on the level of dedication that it takes to be part of a successful team.

Those words shed some light on the adversity, criticism, injuries and other setbacks that coaches and athletes deal with.

Those words shed some light on why the 2014 Cowboy football season will go down as being memorable for the right reasons despite the fact that the team had a modest 7-6 record.

How is that possible? Oklahoma State - a team that has become accustomed to either winning the Big 12 or being one of the last teams standing in the conference title race over the span of the last seven years - is trending upward at 7-6?

You bet it is.

In the midst of counting wins and losses, it should not be disregarded that Oklahoma State was one of the least-experi-enced teams in the country and dealt with the adversity of season-ending injuries to starters at perhaps the three most critical positions on the field - quarterback, left tackle and cornerback.

The Cowboys stood at 5-1 and were ranked as high as No. 15 in the Associated Press poll after a pair of non-conference victories plus Big 12 wins over Texas Tech, Kansas and Iowa State, yet several times during the winning streak, coach Mike Gundy referred to the Cowboys as being just average. He saw something - the team wasn't ready yet.

Oklahoma State then lost five consecutive games, with three of those losses coming to teams that were ranked in the top 11 of the final AP poll and a fourth at the hands of a team that was ranked at the time of the game. Interestingly, several times during that losing streak, Gundy referred to the Cowboys as a team that was getting better. He saw something - the team was developing and steadily improving, it just wasn't winning games.

"There were times during games this year where we just didn't play well - the other team was better than us and we got beat, but then there were times when we played well even though the other team was better than us. We have to look at that as coaches," Gundy said. "We lost to a team that was No. 1 in the country (Florida State), we lost to a team that was ranked sixth (Baylor) and we lost to a team that was ranked 12th (TCU). We played some pretty good football teams during the year."

SEASON STORYLINES

►Oklahoma State was the youngest team in the nation in 2014. The Cowboys' opening day depth chart included 32 freshmen and sophomores (most in the nation) and OSU returned only 54.3 percent of its lettermen from 2013 (the lowest percentage in the nation). All told, 22 freshmen played for Oklahoma State. Of those 22 freshmen, 11 were true freshmen. Eight freshmen started for the Cowboys.

►For the second time in three seasons, injuries forced Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy to play three different starting quarterbacks. Opening day starter J.W. Walsh was lost for the season in the first quarter of the second game of the year and his backup, Daxx Garman, was lost after getting injured in week 10. Those two injuries left Gundy with the decision to either pull the redshirt off promising true freshman Mason Rudolph or start a walk-on true freshman in OSU's week 11 game at No. 6 Baylor in Waco.

►Offensive line play was an issue for Oklahoma State for most of the season, as the makeshift group included a converted tight end in Zac Veatch having to start 11 games at guard and a true freshman walk-on in Brad Lundblade having to play significant reps at center for the final seven games of the season. The opening day starter at left tackle, Zachary Crabtree, watched injured from the sidelines as the Cowboys endured a five-game losing streak. Senior Chris Grisbhy started every game, but he played the entire season with a fracture in his left wrist and played the second half of the season with a dislocated finger on his right hand. With both hands injured, he was robbed of his ability to get any kind of punch in the trenches, yet he still played on.

►Foreshadowing the kind of grit and toughness that would come into play later in the season, Oklahoma State fought reigning national champion Florida State and its returning Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback Jameis Winston to a near-standstill on a neutral field in week one, then won five straight games after that to soar to as high as No. 15 in the Associated Press poll. The Cowboys then lost five in a row and it wasn't until they beat Oklahoma in Norman in breath-taking fashion on the last day of the regular season that the Pokes clinched bowl eligibility. The Cowboys then handled Washington in the Cactus Bowl to finish 2014 with remarkably positive momentum.

2014 SEASON REVIEW STORY

The validation of Gundy's vision of an improving team came when Oklahoma State went into Norman and defeated No. 18 Oklahoma despite starting a true freshman quarterback playing behind a starting offensive line that included two freshmen and two sophomores.

"It helped everybody," Gundy said of his team's Bedlam victory. "It lifted their spirits. These guys on this team, especially the veteran players, they've won a lot of football games. When they went through a tough stretch, they stayed strong, kept fighting and continued to practice hard. I said this after the game, but in the two weeks leading up to the game, our guys practiced as well as they were practicing in September. We were just fortunate that we were able to hold it together as a staff and continue to get them to work hard. It paid off for them."

The win not only put the Cowboys into the postseason, but also gave the players and staff confidence and a morale boost.

"When we had that losing streak, the team still practiced hard," receiver David Glidden said. "It's a young team, so mis-takes were going to happen, but the guys were still going out there fighting. I think that's eventually what happened in the Bedlam game, and we never gave up. It really showed after the weeks of practice we'd been having."

A relaxed and energized OSU group rolled into its Cactus Bowl matchup with a Washington team that boasted three All-Americans on its defense and raced out to a 24-0 lead before crossing the finish line with a 30-22 win over the Huskies.

Cornerback Kevin Peterson added some insight on how the Cowboys worked through the adversity that came with a five-game losing streak.

"(We) just stayed really close," Peterson said. "Even if we (lost), we believed the scoreboard doesn't show what the game really means. In the public world, everything is kind of about wins and losses, and even if we had a rough year this year by that measure, we stayed close. We stay focused and we stay together."

The togetherness Peterson talked about plus the brand of toughness that Gundy instills in his team year in and year out are at the very core of how OSU navigated through a season of adversity yet still has a positive trend moving forward.

SIGNATURE MOMENTS OF 2014

THE BIG GUY STEALS THE SHOWAfter playing zero offensive snaps in his career, 300-pound defen-sive tackle James Castleman rushed for a touchdown and made a key 48-yard reception to lift OSU to a victory in the Cactus Bowl.

ALLOW ME TO INTRODUCE MYSELFFacing No. 1-ranked Florida State and reigning Heisman winner

Jameis Winston in week one, previously unheralded DE Emmanuel Ogbah posted 2 sacks, 2 TFLs, 2 PBUs and six tackles to intro-

PULL THE REDSHIRTQB injuries forced coach Mike Gundy to insert true freshman

Mason Rudolph into the fold at Baylor in week 11 and that's when the entire vibe of OSU's season changed for the better.

Offense Bullets

►Receiver David Glidden was a rock of stability for the Cowboys and was tabbed as the team's offensive MVP. He finished the season with a team-best 42 receptions for 598 yards and two touchdowns.

►When Oklahoma State was at its best in the final two games of the year, perhaps no Cowboy was more explosive than receiver Brandon Sheperd, who caught seven passes for 156 yards and two touchdowns in OSU's win over Oklahoma, then came back to make five catches for 98 yards and a score in the bowl game against Washington. Sheperd finished the season with 39 catches for a team-best 737 yards and five touchdowns.

►Despite facing the three most vaunted pass rush teams on OSU's schedule (Baylor, Oklahoma and Washington) in the first three games of his career, freshman quarterback Mason Rudolph thrived, complet-ing 49-of-86 passes for 853 yards and six touchdowns in those three games.

►True freshman James Washington led the Cowboys with six touchdown receptions and staked a legitimate claim to being one of the best up-and-coming receivers in the Big 12.

Defense Bullets

►Emmanuel Ogbah went from virtual unknown in the preseason to a first-team All-Big 12 performer and the Big 12 defensive lineman of the year.

►Unheralded by the media and outsiders, defensive tackle Ofa Hautau was voted as OSU's MVP by the coaches.

►Linebacker Ryan Simmons was the heart and soul of the defense with his leadership and ability to adjust to a defensive scheme that morphed as the year went on.

►Freshman safety Jordan Sterns emerged as a nasty, hard-hitting presence in the OSU secondary who com-manded respect from opposing coaches.

►Ticketed for redshirt during the earlygoing, true fresh-man Ramon Richards was forced into the lineup after cornerback Ashton Lampkin was lost for the season in week four. A converted high school quarterback, Richards took some time to adjust and was targeted by opposing teams early on, but came around as the season progressed and blossomed into an effective cornerback by season's end.

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 fac-tors that thwarted OSU's hopes of pulling the upset.

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.)

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-and-one 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 Cow-boys 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 play-ing 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 touch-down 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.

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 defen-sive three-and-outs and then Hill's spectacular punt return score that deadlocked the score through the end of regulation.

TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) - Oklahoma State went through its most difficult season under coach Mike Gundy, losing five straight games before squeaking into a bowl game.

Once the Cowboys got to the Cactus Bowl, they rode a freshman quarterback and an offensively gifted defensive tackle to a spirit-lifting victory.

Mason Rudolph threw for 299 yards and two touchdowns, and 300-pound tackle James Castleman showed off his versatility with two big of-fensive plays lead Oklahoma State to a 30-22 victory over Washington in the Cactus Bowl Friday night.

"Our offense was resilient," Gundy said. "I thought we blocked well, our running back ran hard, we made big catches and we turned James Castle-man into a wide receiver."

Oklahoma State (7-6) needed a late rally over rival Oklahoma in the season finale to become bowl eligible and played the Cactus Bowl without its most dynamic offensive player.

The Cowboys closed out the season with a flourish behind Rudolph, with some help from Castleman.

A freshman making his third start, Rudolph kept his com-posure against Washington's vaunted front seven, overcom-ing three turnovers to hit 17 of 26 passes.

Desmond Roland kept the Huskies off balance by tearing off big runs up the middle, finishing with 123 yards on 32 carries.

Then there was Castleman.

Though he had never played offense before, the beefy defensive tackle lined up in the shotgun to score on a 1-yard run in the first half, helping Oklahoma State build a 17-point halftime lead.

Washington rallied to within a touchdown in the second half, but Castleman wreaked havoc again, catching a pass out of the backfield and rumbling down the sideline for a 48-yard catch that all but killed the Huskies' hopes.

"Honestly, I'm like, `Why hasn't somebody hit me yet?"' Castle-man said of his reception. "Next thing, I look up to the screen, I see someone coming and I try jabbing inside trying to get him to miss. Once he hit me, the check engine light came on."

Washington (8-6) stumbled out of the gate on both sides of the ball in the first half in the first half before finding a rhythm on offense in the second.

The hole proved to be too deep, ending coach Chris Petersen's first season with a loss.

John Ross scored on a 96-yard kickoff return and Cyler Miles threw for 268 yards and a touchdown, but had an interception on Washington's last-ditch drive.

"If we would have come out ready, it would have been a dif-ferent outcome," said Huskies receiver Jaydon Mickens, who scored two touchdowns.

The Cowboys pulled off a last-minute comeback to earn a spot in the Cactus Bowl, scoring two touchdowns in the final 8 minutes to knock off Oklahoma in overtime.

They had no trouble against Washington's ferocious front seven on their opening drive, confidently converting a midfield fourth-and-1 to set up Castleman's 1-yard dive off left tackle.

Rudolph turned it over on the next two drives, losing a fumble when he was sacked, then on a one-handed interception by Budda Baker.

The freshman kept his poise, though. He caught a pass from receiver Brandon Sheperd on a trick play to set up a 28-yard touchdown pass to James Washington, who one-upped Baker with a one-handed catch in the end zone.

The Sheperd-Rudolph con-nection worked again just before the half, this time in reverse: Rudolph on the throw, Sheperd on the catch for a 47-yard touchdown that put the

Cowboys up 24-0.

Washington had just as much trouble on offense, finishing with 113 total yards in the half.

"The first half was, obviously, on offense, still in practice mode," Petersen said.

The Huskies finally showed signs of life on their opening drive of the third quarter, cut-ting into Oklahoma State's lead on Mickens' 31-yard reverse.

Washington got a bad break when a punt hit one of its play-ers and Oklahoma State re-covered, but held the Cowboys to Ben Grogan's 27-yard field goal. Ross took the ensuing kickoff up the middle, made a couple of jukes and raced off to a 96-yard touchdown that cut the Cowboys' lead to 27-14.

Miles followed with a 16-yard touchdown pass to Mickens, trimming the lead to 30-2 with 3 1-2 minutes left.

The Cowboys then turned to Castleman again and he played the receiver role well, killing off precious seconds that helped the Cowboys finish a difficult season on a positive note.

"This was a great finish for this team," Gundy said.

They can thank their freshman quarterback and new - and big - offensive weapon.
