After Breakout Season, Tylan Wallace Makes Multiple All-American Lists

It didn’t take long for No. 2 to assert himself as Oklahoma State’s No. 1. Tylan Wallace, the super sophomore stepped right into the void left by last year’s Biletnikoff winner James Washington, quickly becoming the focal point for a Taylor Cornelius-led offense. And with the opportunities came some serious and historic numbers.

That production did not go unnoticed, even if Wallace was edged out by Jerry Jeudy for the Biletnikoff last week.

Wallace represented Oklahoma State being voted to two All-America first teams (The Sporting News and ESPN) as well as earning second-team honors as decided by Walter Camp, Sports Illustrated and the Associated Press.

Through 12 games, Wallace is third nationally with 1,408 receiving yards and has 11 TD grabs. His 17.8 yards per catch is the highest of any of the country’s top 10 receivers.

The most impressive thing about Wallace’s second year has been his ability to show up big in big games. He’s the first Cowboy in school history to record multiple 200-yard games against ranked opponents.

With a bowl game to go, Wallace’s 2018 campaign is already among the top 10 at Oklahoma State in receptions, receiving yards and touchdowns and is just 0.01 yards per catch outside of No. 10 in that category. His per-game average would see him reach 1,525 yards after New Year’s Eve which would edge Justin Blackmon’s junior season out of the Top 4 all-time at OSU.

The best news of all, we get to see Spencer Sanders cut his teeth throwing the ball to a highly decorated gamer next season, and hopefully longer.
