LITTLE ROCK, Arkansas -- After implementing a record-breaking offense at Oklahoma State, first-year offensive coordinator Dana Holgorsen has been named a finalist for the 2010 Broyles Award, given to the nation’s top assistant coach.

Under Holgorsen, the Cowboys have broken five single-season, team offensive records – a number that could jump to eight after a bowl game. Those offensive numbers have led Oklahoma State to a record number of regular-season wins and their first top-10 BCS Ranking.

The winner will be announced Monday, December 6.
