The Oklahoma State 10-3 (8-2 Big 12) football team dominated the Colorado Buffaloes 10-4 (8-2 PAC-12) in a 38-8 victory in the 2016 Alamo Bowl. Buffs fans likely expected a better showing from their squad. Quarterback Sefo Liufau missed a large chunk of the first half due to injury but played in most of the second half. Running back Phillip Lindsay was held in check for most of the game rushing, but he did not get too many touches in the first place.
OK State true freshman running back Justice Hill rushed for more than 100 yards and one touchdown.
