Sam Show quickly made her mark during her only season in Stillwater, propelling the Cowgirls to their first Women's College World Series appearance under Coach Kenny Gajewski.

📈 STOCK UP

🔼 A Dominant Duo. Brandon Weeden and Justin Blackmon formed a dynamic duo in the Oklahoma State offense, connecting for an impressive 39 touchdowns during their time together.

The combination of Weeden's precision passing and Blackmon's unmatched athleticism resulted in countless unforgettable moments in orange and black. Relive the magic as you take a trip down memory lane, revisiting each and every one of those 39 remarkable touchdowns.

🔼 Game Changing. After missing out on a chance to play for the BCS National Championship, the third-ranked Oklahoma State Cowboys took on the fourth-ranked Stanford Cardinal in the 2012 Fiesta Bowl. Future number one NFL Draft Pick Andrew Luck awaited the OSU defense.

On the other side, Brandon Weeden and Justin Blackmon had one final chance to hook up in their final game as Cowboys. Weeden finished the day with 399 yards passing and three touchdowns.

All three of the scores went to Blackmon who finished with 8 catches for 186 yards and those three scores. He also had a 52-yard carry in the game. What a way to go out for the two first-round draft picks. Just legendary.

🔼 Back-To-Back. It’s impossible to pick just one Justin Blackmon highlight, but this 54-yd TD against K-State in 2011 earned him his second consecutive 1,000-yard season en route to back-to-back Biletnikoff trophies.

During his time with the Pokes, Blackmon did these things:

  • 233 REC / 3,304 YDS / 38 TD

  • 2x Biletnikoff Award winner

  • 2x Unanimous All-American
