After being a game away from the national championship, being relegated all the way to the Alamo Bowl may be veyr deflating to the Cardinal, and if their minds are elsewhere, the Cowboys will quickly run them out of the building. Oklahoma State's offense is as powerful as ever, led by star junior JW Walsh, a lethal dual-threat quarterback with 2702 passing yards in addition to 759 rushing yards. Walsh has thrown for 24 touchdowns and run for four more, while senior tailback Herschel Sims has carried the load on the ground with 870 yards and 11 touchdowns to go with an impressive 6.7 yards per carry. The Cowboys don't have an all-world receiver in the Dez Bryant or Justin Blackmon mold, but they boast a deep corps of reliable playmakers, led by senior wideout Kevin Johnson (58 catches, 939 yards, 12 TDs). Fullback Grant Goodwin is a surprisingly important target, often lining up as a sort of H-back, or as an extra tailback in pistol formations; he has 575 rushing yards and four scores, and 511 receiving yards and four more touchdowns via the catch. Other receiving threats for the Cowboys include junior Josh Stewart (20-270-4) and sophomores James Wise (24-422-2) and Rob Lynch (30-330-3). Redshirt sophomore tight end Quinton Mann (41-497-4) is one of the most promising young weapons in college football. Defensively, third year sophomore outside linebacker Maurice Williams is the leader for the Pokes in tackles (74), TFL (24), and sacks (eight). The Cowboys have an under-appreciated defense due to their flashy, explosive offense, but they are capable of making plays, even if they are also prone to giving them up. Senior safety Deion Imade will have to be accounted for in all aspects of the game by Stanford.

Valero Alamo Bowl

Cardinal bowls over Cowboys
Stanford lays siege to OSU, ensuring the Cowboys will remember the Alamo

SAN ANTONIO, TX - Deep in the heart of one of their most promising young recruiting pipelines, Stanford showed no ill effects of their Pac-12 Championship Game loss to Arizona State.

Stanford put on a dazzling show in the Valero Alamo Bowl, exploding out of the gates and never letting up in a 73-28 blitzkrieg victory over the Oklahoma State Cowboys. The final game for quarterback Brett Nottingham, and perhaps the finale for running back Remound Wright as well, was a smashing success, as the Cardinal showed no hangover effect from being on the precipice of the BCS title game and being relegated to the Alamo Bowl.

Although the disappointment of losing the Pac-12 Championship to Arizona State still lingered, even after the fireworks against the Cowboys concluded, Stanford coach Brian Kudron has three one-loss seasons in his first four years in Palo Alto, and he's headed into 2015 with an optimistic outlook.

"Obviously we didn't accomplish some of the things we wanted to accomplish this year," he said on the field in the Alamodome after the game. "But it's difficult to put a negative spin on a 13-1 season. This senior class lost seven games in four years, and are leaving college with degrees from Stanford University. Under no twisted measures are these kids 'failures.' They've accomplished an incredible amount, both on and off the field. And I'm proud that I've been able to coach them along the way."

Next season, as the final batch of Harbaugh recruits begin to matriculate their way out of the program, Kudron's fingerprints on the team will increase. Offensive tackle Kevin Kelly and offensive guard Travis McDonald will finally take their places in the starting lineup after three years of destruction in practice as two of Kudron's most hyped OL recruits. Every player that starts on defense next year will be a Kudron recruit. And of course, most notably, 5* Shane Williams will take the reigns at quarterback as a redshirt sophomore.
