In the second game of Robinson's 2007 sophomore season, he became the Cowboys' starter at quarterback and went on to lead his team to an appearance in the 2007 Insight Bowl. After taking over the starting role, Robinson recorded 847 yards rushing and 2,824 yards passing and combined for 32 touchdowns. His 3,671 total offensive yards set a school record. In that season, the only other player in Division I FBS to rush for at least 800 yards and pass for 2,800 yards was Heisman Trophy winner Tim Tebow.

Robinson led Oklahoma State to the 2008 Holiday Bowl his junior season. He finished the 2008 regular season with 562 yards rushing with 8 touchdowns and 3,064 yards passing with 25 touchdowns.

Robinson was viewed as one of the best senior quarterbacks in the 2009 preseason. Robinson began the season with a win over Georgia, throwing for 135 yards and two touchdowns. However, his season took a turn when Cowboys running back Kendall Hunter suffered an injury and was sidelined for a good portion of the season while wide receiver Dez Bryant, who became a first round pick in the 2010 NFL Draft, was suspended for the rest of the season, breaking up what Rivals.com had coined the "Best Offensive Trio of 2009." Later in the season, Robinson suffered a concussion and shoulder injury in a game against Texas Tech when he collided with Red Raider cornerback Jamar Wall. He also suffered a hamstring injury at one point during the season, and finished the season with 2,084 yards passing and 15 touchdowns on the season.

Robinson completed his Bachelor of University Studies degree at Oklahoma State in December 2013.

Senior Bowl

Robinson was one of six senior quarterbacks invited to the 2010 Senior Bowl in Mobile, Alabama. Of the six, only Robinson threw for more than 100 yards (176); Robinson was also responsible for the only South team touchdown. In addition, his showing at the 2010 College Football All-Star Challenge was described by ESPN analysts as the "Performance of the Day" out of the twelve participating players.

New England Patriots

Robinson was drafted by the New England Patriots in the seventh round (250th overall) of the 2010 NFL Draft. He signed a four-year contract on July 21, 2010. He was released on September 4, 2010.

During the final cuts before the start of the 2012 NFL Season, Robinson was waived and subsequently placed on the practice squad. Robinson appeared in all four of the Bengals' preseason games in 2012, and was again signed to the practice squad at the end of preseason.

Prior to the 2013 season, he was placed on the PUP list just before training camp due to an elbow injury.

His season officially ended on December 10, when the Bengals left him on the PUP list, instead of activating him.

On May 2, 2014 he was waived after failing his physical.
