Oklahoma State quarterback Alan Bowman was named the Walter Camp National FBS Offensive Player of the Week, the Walter Camp Football Foundation announced Tuesday.
Bowman was a main catalyst in Oklahoma State’s 45-10 rout over Tulsa last Saturday, finishing 24-for-31 passing for 396 yards, five touchdowns and one interception. His outing was notable regarding multiple personal, program and national bests, such as:
- Five passing touchdowns tied the most in the FBS this season against an FBS opponent.
- Five passing touchdowns is tied for the fourth most in a game in Oklahoma State history.
- Five passing touchdowns is the third most in an away game in program history and most by an OSU quarterback in an away game since Mason Rudolph threw five against Pittsburgh on September 16, 2017.
- Five passing touchdowns are Bowman’s most as a Cowboy and most in a game since September 26, 2020, against Texas while playing for Texas Tech, when he also threw five.
- Four first-half passing touchdowns were his most in an opening half since September 15, 2018, vs. Houston, while playing for Texas Tech.
It is the ninth time a Cowboy has earned Walter Camp National Player of the Week honors since 2004 and the first since Ollie Gordon II did so on October 22, 2023, following his 282 yard, four touchdown performance at West Virginia.
Bowman and the Cowboys return to action on Saturday in the Big 12 opener against Utah, which is slated for 3 p.m.
