🏈 THE TIME HAS COME…

The time has come.

Cowboy Spring Ball gets underway TODAY and we’ve got the perfect way to get you ready!

Even the most die hard Cowboy fans don’t know the full story of the 2023 Oklahoma State Football season.

Until now.

📈 STOCK UP

🔺 Champ Week. Who doesn’t remember playing Connect Four as a kid?

The seventh-ranked OSU equestrian squad will try to play a version of that this week as they are set to defend three straight conference titles at the Big 12 Championships, hosted by Baylor.

The Cowgirls enter the tournament as the second seed and will face third-seeded Fresno State Friday at 10 a.m., with the meet running simultaneously with the TCU-Baylor matchup.

A win on Friday by OSU would then advance them to the championship showdown with a chance at four straight Big 12 titles, a feat never accomplished by any team.

🔺 Weekend In Waco. While the rest of us were doing some spring cleaning around the house, the OSU track & field squads were putting in work of their own this past weekend.

The Cowboys and Cowgirls headed down south to Waco to compete in the Clyde Hart Classic at Baylor.

In the first outdoor meet of the season for the Orange & Black several athletes set new personal bests and set the tone for the rest of the spring.

Former Oklahoma State cornerback Ramon Richards is an inspiration
to many after overcoming obstacles with his health at an early age
to become one of the best defensive backs in Cowboys Football history.

Recently he returned to Stillwater to speak to the 2024 Cowboys
about his journey. See the full speech in this OSU Access piece.

🤔 COWBOY TRIVIA

This past weekend, the stable of arms were on display for the OSU baseball squad.

In 27 innings of work, the Cowboys hurlers allowed just four earned runs and struck out 39 batters.

With 249 strikeouts in 24 games, the Orange & Black rank in the top-25 nationally. What is the program record for strikeouts in a season?

Got a guess?

Scroll on down to the bottom of this email for the answer!

As brackets were being busted all weekend long, it only brought back a flood of memories from 20 years ago when the Cowboys ran all the way to the 2004 Final Four in San Antonio.

All the memories that seem like yesterday for so many OSU fans and OSUMax is the proud home of “Road to the Alamo: 2003-04 Cowboy Basketball.”

In addition to game broadcasts throughout the season, OSUMax will have all 14 Eddie Sutton Shows from the 2003-04 season, a full season recap and an incredible piece of footage from the infamous “football pad” practice.
