Established in 1890 as Oklahoma A&M, this changed in 1957 to Oklahoma State. Also known as OSU, Ohio State shares that moniker. But, Oklahoma State is the school that has the letters OSU branded into their logo, and used most commonly in uniforms and merchandise.
The Cowboys have 52 NCAA National Championships, the most for a Division I program not based in California. The arch rivals of the Cowboys are the Oklahoma Sooners. The rivalry is known as Bedlam, and is contested in everything from football, basketball, softball, baseball, soccer and other sports.
OU has a significant series lead over OSU in the Bedlam Football Series, but the greatest OSU team in history defeated OU at Boone Pickens Stadium in 2011 by a score of 44-10 to win the Big 12 Championship. That team would later defeat a Stanford squad led by Andrew Luck 41-38 in the 2012 Fiesta Bowl.
Notable Oklahoma State Cowboys include Eddie Sutton; the only Division I coach with 900+ wins yet to be inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame, Daniel Cormier; former simultaneous UFC Heavyweight and Light Heavyweight Champion, Dez Bryant; former Dallas Cowboys WR, Tony Allen; defensive specialist for the Memphis Grizzlies, Randy Couture, UFC Hall of Famer, John Smith; two-time Olympic Gold Medalist and head coach of Cowboy Wrestling, Desmond Mason; the only OSU basketball player to play for both the Oklahoma City Hornets AND Thunder, and Duck-Woo Nam; South Korean Prime Minister from 1980 to 1982.

Did you know that Oklahoma State was robbed from getting into the NCAA Basketball Tournament in 2018? Yes, even though the Cowboys defeated OU in two out of three games in the 2017-2018 season, the NCAA wanted Trae Young on TV. The Sooners still lost in the opening round.
Isn’t is strange that former Oklahoma State QB Brandon Weeden could still play in an NFL game after Andrew Luck announced his retirement?
Former Oklahoma Governor Mary Fallin and her successor Kevin Stitt both are graduates of Oklahoma State and are unfortunately in the Cowboy Family. This means that OSU’s historical football record in Bedlam against Oklahoma isn’t the worst thing to come out of Stillwater. Apparently, teaching shitty politicians takes the crown.
