2015 was an excellent season for Mason Rudolph and Oklahoma State until the final three games of the season which resulted in losses to Baylor, Oklahoma and Ole Miss in the Sugar Bowl.

Despite ending the season with three straight losses, Oklahoma State had an incredible year, mostly due to the efforts of Mason Rudolph. Rudolph will be back to once again lead the Cowboys and will have them right in the thick of the chase for the Big 12 Conference.

Rudolph is an excellent decision maker. The Oklahoma State offense gives him the ability to air it out and spread the ball around. I would expect Rudolph to easily top his numbers from 2015, especially in the touchdowns department.

Mason Rudolph gets a boost in the passing game from his excellent receiver, James Washington. Rudolph connected with Washington for 10 touchdowns in 2015. Oklahoma State has to fix its offensive line and run game in order for the team to be successful, but with Rudolph leading the way, that provides a big help for their efforts to have a successful offense.
