Senior Orie Lemon has been the anchor of Oklahoma State’s offense this season. After a knee injury forced him to miss the 2009 season, Lemon earned All-Big 12 honors this season. I chatted with Orie during Alamo Bowl week.

Why do you wear No. 41?

It was the number they gave me.

Did you try to change it at any point?

No. I could be in No. 99, it wouldn’t effect my play.

What is the worst Christmas gift you ever received?

I’ve never received a bad Christmas gift. Christmas ain’t about receiving, it’s about giving.

Give me two or three people on twitter you recommend following?

LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, I follow them because they are on a team together and they are trying to accomplish something together so I see what they put on there. Michael Vick because of what he went through and what he is accomplishing right now.
