STILLWATER – Oklahoma State quarterback Drew Mestemaker is one of 20 semifinalists for the 2026 Walter Camp Player of the Year award, announced Wednesday by the Walter Camp Football Foundation.
It adds to a growing list of honors for the Cowboy signal-caller, who was named a semifinalist for the Maxwell Award and Burlsworth Trophy yesterday, as well as to the Davey O'Brien QB Class of 2026.
Mestemaker is one of two Big 12 players who made the cut for the Walter Camp Player of the Year award, which is the fourth-oldest college football award in the nation.
On the season, Mestemaker ranks No. 1 in the FBS in passing touchdowns (29), No. 1 in points responsible for (204), No. 2 in passing yards (2,962) and No. 2 in total offense per game (348.8).
Mestemaker also ranks No. 1 in the FBS with 48 completions of at least 20 yards and 13 completions of at least 40 yards. He has passed for at least 300 yards in an OSU record eight-straight games and at least 200 yards in 24-straight games, both of which are the longest active streaks in the nation.
The five finalists for the Walter Camp Player of the Year will be announced later this month and the 60th recipient, along with the 137th edition of the Walter Camp All-America team, will be announced on the ESPN College Football Awards Show on Friday, December 11.
Season tickets are sold out to Oklahoma State football games this year, but there are still opportunities to get tickets to see the Cowboys in Stillwater. A small number of single-game tickets remain for the November 28 game against Kansas, but the November 15 game against Texas Tech is sold out.
Tickets are available at www.okstate.com/tickets or by contacting the ticket office at 877-ALL-4-OSU. Fans can still secure their tickets to sold out games through SeatGeek, the official secondary partner of OSU Athletics.
