The Oklahoma State Cowboys kicked off their season on Saturday with a 44-20 victory over the reigning back-to-back FCS National Champion South Dakota State Jack Rabbits. Alan Bowman completed 25-of-34 passes for 267 yards and 3 touchdowns, and Ollie Gordon amassed 156 all-purpose yards for 3 total touchdowns.
After starting the season 2-2—an abysmal mark for Cowboy football—Oklahoma State entered a bye week with plenty of concerns. With Kansas State on the docket, the Cowboys weren’t exactly given much of a chance for a win in their fifth game of the season. The Wildcats were 12-point favorites in Stillwater on Friday night, but that did not matter as Alan Bowman fueled the offense from start to finish, and the defense stood tall when it mattered most to give the Cowboys a 29-21 victory.
