Oklahoma State Finds Transfer Portal Quarterback Match in Alan Bowman
PUBLISHER’S NOTE: Alaan Bowman will be on Sports Talk with Robert Allen and Friends on Triple Play Sports Radio at 10:05 a.m. Tuesday morning Jan. 10.
STILLWATER – Oklahoma State has found its older, experienced quarterback out of the transfer portal and he is so familiar that he has lit it up throwing the ball twice before inside Boone Pickens Stadium. Former Texas Tech passer Alan Bowman has been at the University of Michigan the past two seasons and the 6-3, 216-pound Bowman has launched all of 11 passes in those two seasons. He did complete eight of those for 69-yards with one touchdown and one interception thrown as a Wolverine.
Bowman, who is 22-years-old and has just one season of eligibility remaining visited Oklahoma State and Stillwater on Saturday (Jan. 7) and looked around. As mentioned, while at Texas Tech, Bowman had a pair of eventful Saturdays in Stillwater.
In 2018, his freshman season, he completed 35-of-46 passing for 397-yards and two touchdowns and two interceptions in a 41-17 blowout win by the Red Raiders. Bowman missed competing against the Cowboys in 2019 when he suffered an early season injury at Arizona. In 2020 he returned to Stillwater and while the Cowboys won a track meet 50-44, Bowman completed 31-of-46 passes for 384--yards and three touchdowns with one interception.
To summarize, Bowman in two games at Boone Pickens Stadium was 1-1 in wins/losses and he threw for 781-yards with five touchdowns and three interceptions.
The native of Grapevine, Texas that came out in the class of 2018 has career numbers of 478-of-713 passing for 4,329-yards with 33 touchdowns and 17 interceptions.
In his time in Lubbock, he completed 478-of- 702 passing for 4,280-yards with 32 touchdowns and 16 interceptions.
His rushing numbers are much with 46-carries for -9-yards and two touchdowns.
Bowman will have to shake off some game rust as he has played in only four games over the past two seasons, but he has played in and started most of 19 games while at Texas Tech. His record as a starting quarterback is 9-10.
