College Football: Top 10 quarterback/wide receiver duos of the 2000’s

Mason Rudolph and James Washington were a lethal combination in the high-octane Oklahoma State offense last season. The two are the most recent duo included in this list.

Between the 2015-2017 seasons, the pair connected 198 for 4,016 yards and 33 touchdowns. Although the Cowboys never won the Big 12 in that stretch of time, the duo helped lead Oklahoma State to three consecutive 10-3 seasons and two bowl victories.

In 2017, Washington ranked as the top pass catcher in the nation in his senior season with 1,549 receiving yards. He also won the Biletnikoff Award for being the best wide receiver in the country.

Rudolph was also stellar himself. In three seasons as the primary quarterback for the Cowboys, he racked up monumental accolades for himself. He shattered the previous passer records held by Brandon Weeden and became the program leader in career passing yards (13,618) and passing touchdowns (92).

For old time’s sake (if you can even call it that in such a short time frame), here is a video of a sweet one-handed touchdown catch Washington made on a pass from Rudolph at Oklahoma State.

Rudolph and Washington will have the chance to team up once again at the pro level on the Pittsburgh Steelers. Washington was drafted in the second round by the team and Rudolph was the Steelers’ third-round pick.
