Welcome from Head Coach Bob Stoops Many times I have been asked what I like most about being the head football coach at Oklahoma. Obviously it’s impossible to settle on just one thing, but I can tell you something that always comes quickly to mind ... the hunger this place has for championships.

GAME DAY IN NORMAN
2005 OKLAHOMA FOOTBALL Looking back over OU’s history, you can see where some might be tempted to sit back and be satisfied. There have been seven national championships, 39 conference titles, 23 bowl victories and 141 All-Americans.
COACHING STAFF
Despite that, every time a game or honor is won here, the next thought, for our team and fans alike, turns to winning the next one. I really like that about Oklahoma ... there is always something else out there for us to attain. That attitude is reflected in what has happened here over the last five years. During that time, we’ve won more games (60) and had more national award winners (16) than any other program in college football. We’ve spent 22 weeks at No. 1 and been listed in 72 consecutive polls. There is no better feeling for a coach than to see his players pleased with their college experience. In both team and individual achievement, we see a lot of that here, and it drives our program.
THE SOONERS
Another year awaits and another championship opportunity is ahead of us. At Oklahoma, we wouldn’t have it any other way.

BEST IN THE NATION
The 2004 OU football guide and post-season guide were judged No. 1 in the nation by the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA). The 2004 regular-season guide finished in the top spot for the first time since 1995, while the post-season guide, which competed in a contest against publications produced for all post-season competitions in all sports, won for a fourth consecutive year (2001-04). Oklahoma finished ahead of second-place Tennessee and third-place Notre Dame in the regular season guide competition. In post-season competition, the 2005 Oklahoma football bowl guide topped Virginia Tech football and Texas football which finished second and third, respectively.

SOONER FOOTBALL TRADITION 6 3 NAT IONAL AWARD WINNERS
Great college football and the Oklahoma Sooners. For as long as anyone can remember the two have been one and the same. Unlike some schools where tradition represents ancient history, or others where it harkens back only a few years, Oklahoma’s tradition is a constant accomplishment unfettered by eras or time.

The Sooners were playing football before Oklahoma became a state and have achieved a legacy so successful, that more than contributing to the history of this great game, it defines it.
Most Successful Program of the Modern Era
7 NATI ONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS
Oklahoma is king in the modern era of college football. Since the end of World War II, the Sooners are the winningest program in the nation with more victories (505) than any other school and the best winning percentage (76 percent). Victories since 1946:

Greatest Players in College Football Some of the greatest players in college football history have worn the Crimson and Cream. The University of Oklahoma has averaged more than one All-American per year since it began playing football in 1895. To date, OU players have been bestowed the prestigious honor 141 times.
COACHING STAFF
Four Sooners have been awarded the Heisman Trophy including quarterback Jason White in 2003, running back Billy Sims in 1978 and running back Steve Owens in 1969. Running back Billy Vessels was OU’s first Heisman winner in 1952.

What have you done for me lately? In Oklahoma’s case, plenty. This is one of the hottest programs in all of sports. Oklahoma has played in three national championship games over the last five seasons, owns three Big 12 championships during that time and turned out a list of award winners and draft picks so long that it taxes even the best memory to name all of them.

Greatness begets greatness and there has been plenty of that in Norman lately. Now, from all corners of the country, the best players come to join a program of traditional success that is riding one of its biggest waves.

For the Record ... 169 Times Anyone with their sights set on attacking the Oklahoma record book had better bring the house. Seven national championships and 141 All-Americans have set most of the numbers somewhere in the stratosphere. That’s what makes Bob Stoops’ six-year run and the recent Sooner success all the more impressive.
8 2005 OKLAHOMA FOOTBALL GUIDE | SOONERSPORTS.COM
Since 1999 (the year of Stoops’ arrival), Oklahoma has set or tied 123 individual school records and 46 team marks for a total of 169 record book rewrites. That kind of production tends to draw a crowd, which would explain how during that same period the Sooners have also broken their single-game attendance record eight times and their season attendance standard twice.

Stoops Leads Oklahoma to Seventh Title In a season so richly laced with great moments, the one for the ages came in the national title game, a 13-2 victory over Florida State in the Orange Bowl. It has been called by some the greatest defensive effort ever in a championship game. The national title season came just two years into Bob Stoops’ tenure and just two years removed from a sub-.500 season. Along the way, the Sooners had thrilling wins over Nebraska, Texas, Texas A&M and Kansas State (twice), with only one of those contests played at Owen Field in Norman. Headliners included QB Josh Heupel, who finished second in the Heisman voting, and big-play linebacker Torrance Marshall. The mark at the end of the season was an unblemished 13-0.

HEAD COACH BOB STOOPS
Oklahoma is Championship Football Nothing defines the competitive success of a college athletics program like a national championship. Oklahoma, with seven national titles sprinkled over four decades, is one of the very few programs that sets out each fall with the expectation and legitimate goal of pursuing the national crown. That pursuit rates as a lot more than just talk around here.
The Sooners under Bob Stoops earned the conference’s most recent title in 2000 with an Orange Bowl victory over Florida State to cap an undefeated, 13-0 season. OU’s other championships came under Barry Switzer in 1985, 1975 and 1974, and Bud Wilkinson in 1956, 1955 and 1950. Nebraska is second with five championships and Texas has three. Colorado and Texas A&M each have claimed one title.
COACHING STAFF
The aura is unmistakable, and it radiates from real and repeated success on college football’s biggest stage. Oklahoma has claimed more national championships than any other Big 12 program.
THE SOONERS
BAR RY SW ITZER
Barry Switzer led his Oklahoma teams to national championships in 1985, 1974 and 1975. He also won 12 Big Eight Conference championships and had eight bowl victories in 13 appearances. Switzer directed the Sooners on a 28-game win streak from 1973 (his first season as head coach) to 1975. When Oklahoma won the national championship in 1975, it marked the first time in history a team had won back-to-back titles more than once. In 1970, as an assistant, he convinced head coach Chuck Fairbanks to make the most significant and gutsy move in OU’s football history, a switch to the wishbone offense.
BUD WI LKINSON
Oklahoma’s 13th football coach produced teams that were 6-2 in postseason play, won the national championship in 1950, 1955 and 1956 and did not lose an astounding 74 straight conference games from 1946-1959 (72 wins, 2 ties). His teams still hold the modern record for wins by a Division IA school with 47 straight victories from 1953-1957. After the 1947 season, the Sooners won 12 straight conference championships. In 17 seasons at Oklahoma, Wilkinson fostered racial integration and graduated players at an 87.2 percentage rate while becoming the eighth-winningest coach in Division I-A history.

Three Big 12 Crowns in Five Years Oklahoma won its first conference championship in 1915 and has since tacked on another 38. In other words, the Sooners average a conference title just about every two seasons. That same pace has carried through the Bob Stoops era with three league crowns in six years. That feat merits considerable respect. Under the Big 12 format, teams must first win a divisional crown over five opponents before advancing to meet the other divisional winner at a neutral site.

If it’s a college football season, the likelihood is that more than one Sooner ranks among the best players in the land. That was true in 1913 when OU produced its first All-American and it’s true today when the rate of additions is so rapid that the total now outnumbers the age of the program itself. One of college football’s greatest programs has been built on some of college football’s finest players. That’s the natural result when talent meets coaching at a program with eye-popping facilities and great visibility.

Elite Program Prepares Players for Next Level The league. Pro ball. The next level. It is the dream of every college football player. It is reality for many Oklahoma Sooners. Few programs in the country attract talent and prepare it to move on better than Oklahoma. Ten Sooners were tabbed in the 2005 NFL Draft alone, including two in the first round and five in the first two. OU plays pro schemes, has two coaches who had lengthy NFL careers and employs a rigorous strength and conditioning program that is so effective that many of those who have gone on to professional careers come back to Norman in the off-season to continue their training. Players with the ability and drive to make the NFL flourish at Oklahoma and leave here equipped to play football beyond their college days.

Sooners at Center of College Football Oklahoma is a household name due to the overwhelming media attention that hovers around the Sooners. Writers and broadcasters representing the nation’s most recognized media outlets regularly interact with Sooner players and coaches and routinely spend time in Norman. And when they can’t come to campus, those same observers keep tabs on OU thanks to extensive television coverage. In 2004, all 13 Oklahoma games appeared on live television, including seven that were carried nationally or regionally on ABC. The Sooners are at the very center of college football and the entire world is watching.

Thirty-eight bowl appearances and 23 bowl victories have firmly entrenched Oklahoma among the most tradition-rich schools in America. The Sooners have become synonymous with post-season play at the highest level. At a school where the bowl history is laced with games of historical significance, the last few years have represented another fabulous roll for the Schooner. Three times in the last five seasons the Sooners have played for the national championship, four times they have been in BCS bowls and in all five seasons they played in January games. Oklahoma enjoys favored status among the bowl community, mostly for its tradition, but also for its fan following. Some 30,000 ventured to the Rose, Sugar and Orange Bowls over the last three seasons. Regardless of the location, Sooner fans flock to follow a bowl tradition that is as fresh as it is historic.

The Sooners were competing on the gridiron before this grand land moved from territorial status to statehood. Few college programs are more engrained in their surroundings than the one at OU. Game day at Oklahoma is about more than 80,000 fans witnessing one of the most historic and vibrant programs in college football at one of the game’s truly great cathedrals. It is about pride for a great university. Indeed, it is about pride for an entire state. Game day here represents football and a whole lot more.

Preparation Meets Opportunity It would be hard to imagine a football program doing more over the last five years to enhance its facilities than OU. The $70 million expansion and enhancement of Gaylord Family - Oklahoma Memorial Stadium is perhaps the most noticeable upgrade, but it is simply the lead project in a plan that has impacted every facet of Sooner football. A new locker room, a new indoor training facility, a new weight training facility, roughly 8,000 new seats and 60 new stadium suites are testaments to OU’s dedication to providing the best for its student-athletes. Preparation routinely meets opportunity at Oklahoma. It does so largely because the Sooners have what they need to succeed.

Four regulation-size practice fields are available to the Sooners right outside their locker room: Owen Field, two grass fields plus an artificial turf field with sand pit. The ceiling inside the Everest Training Facility hangs a full 65 feet above the SafePlay Synthetic Turf surface. This allows for all kicking and throwing drills during practice. Oklahoma recently completed a $70 million stadium expansion and enhancement project that added 8,000 seats. In 2004, OU led the Big 12 in average attendance at 84,532. On those rare days that the weather forces Oklahoma to practice indoors, the Sooners can move to the 74,000square-foot Everest Indoor Training Facility.

Championship Strength & Conditioning The best testimony for the impact Jerry Schmidt and his staff have on Oklahoma football players comes from former Oklahoma players -- those in professional football. It’s not uncommon for members of that select fraternity to return to Norman for part of their off-season training regimen. During their time in the Sooner program, they learned the quality of the strength and conditioning program. Schmidt has been involved with three national football championships at three different schools. His success is no coincidence. Now in his seventh year at OU, he is recognized nationally as one of the best in the business, and the Athletics Department has surrounded him with facilities that give Sooner student-athletes the best opportunity to succeed.

Jerry Schmidt has coached with teams that played in five national championship games. He has three national title rings from Oklahoma, Notre Dame and Florida. Schmidt has worked with four Heisman winners, including Jason White (Oklahoma), Danny Wuerffel (Florida), Barry Sanders (Oklahoma State) and Tim Brown (Notre Dame). Coaches, scouts and personnel from every NFL team were on hand for the 2005 OU Pro Day. Ten Sooners were selected in the subsequent draft -- the most of any school. Schmidt has coached 22 NFL first-round picks including Oklahoma’s Jammal Brown, Mark Clayton, Tommie Harris, Andre Woolfolk and Roy Williams. No. 31 for the Dallas Cowboys and former Sooner standout, Roy Williams, donated $100,000 to establish a new weight room in Oklahoma’s Everest Training Facility.

He worked under Tom Osborne at Nebraska, Lou Holtz at Notre Dame and Steve Spurrier at Florida, where he became buddies with the Gators’ then-defensive coordinator, Bob Stoops. “Schmidt made sure that Stoops’ players were big and fast. Insiders will tell you he’s probably the best in the business. The Sooners have played for three national titles since 2000... “Almost to a man, the Sooners looked like they were cut out of marble. There were no guts hanging over belts. There were no skinny arms or pear-shaped frames. They were as soft as petrified trees. These guys looked like well-conditioned athletes.”

The Sooner offense is balanced, although its West Coast and pro influences are unmistakable. It is common to see the ball in the hands of 10-15 players during the course of a game. Many stay involved to the detriment of none.
Pass oriented? You could make that case. Numerous records for both passing and receiving have fallen over the last two years. Run oriented? Maybe. After all, the single season rushing mark was set in 2004. Well which is it, passing or running? At Oklahoma, the answer is both. After another blockbuster season in ’04, OU had two offensive players, a running back and a quarterback, among the five Heisman finalists. It also produced the Outland Trophy winner and saw three wide receivers selected in the 2005 NFL Draft.
Under Coach Stoops, the Oklahoma offense has produced:
One Heisman finalist, one All-American, two 1,000-yard rushers and Oklahoma’s single season rushing yards record holder. Two All-Americans, one Biletnikoff Award finalist and OU’s record holders in game, season and career receptions, receiving yards and touchdown receptions (tied). One Mackey Award and Oklahoma’s record holder in touchdown receptions in a game (tied). Three All-Americans, one Outland Trophy winner and two Rimington Award finalists.

Oklahoma’s defense suffers from a bit of an identity crisis, but nobody in Norman is about to say anything. With a takeaway in 70 of Bob Stoops’ 79 games and 14 interception or fumble returns for touchdowns during this coach’s tenure, the defense has a reputation of, well, being a little offensive in its approach. The Sooners’ attack-style defense, long appreciated for its speed and aggressive attitude, is perhaps best known for its consistency. OU has ranked among the top 13 teams in the nation in total defense for five consecutive years.

A strong case can be made that no program has played better on its special teams in recent years than Oklahoma. Time and again the Sooners have blown games wide open with electric and innovative special teams play. Bob Stoops’ commitment to special teams performance is evidenced by the number of first-team players who participate on those units. The wisdom of that move, and the program’s overall devotion to special teams play, is found in the staggering numbers that relate to every possible facet of the kicking and return games.

Quotes on Coach Stoops “In a sport in which icons are dropping annually from sight, and phenoms are forever heading to the NFL, Stoops is the closest thing to a budding legend in the NCAA.” - John Romano, St. Petersburg Times “He has brought us back to the pinnacle of college football. Bob is creating his own legend. He inherited a program with great tradition, and he’s added to it.” - Barry Switzer, Former OU Head Coach

167 Cumulative Years of Experience In Bob Stoops’ six seasons in Norman, three of his assistant coaches have gone on to become head coaches at other I-A programs. It’s not hard to gauge the quality of the Sooner staff or Stoops’ ability to hire good people. The beneficiaries are Oklahoma’s players. In record numbers they have been honored and drafted into the professional ranks. And that has been true regardless of what position they play.

Oklahoma Remembers Prentice Gautt 2 0 0 5 S EAS ON
Prentice Gautt ushered in a new era for Oklahoma football when he landed a spot on the 1956 team. Former Sooner head coach Bud Wilkinson was pressured against giving Gautt a scholarship. A group of black doctors and pharmacists gave money for Gautt to attend the school. Within a year, Gautt was given a scholarship and the donated amounts were given to another black student. Gautt, considered Oklahoma’s best player in 1958, was a two-time All-Big Eight player and 1959 Orange Bowl MVP. During his senior year, Gautt was named to the academic All-America team and eventually earned master’s and doctorate degrees in psychology.
“His personal example of quiet courage, grace under pressure, and dedication to the university helped open the doors of opportunity for countless numbers of African-Americans and minority student-athletes who have followed him into collegiate athletics,’’ said University of Oklahoma president David Boren.

Despite its continuous growth, it has maintained the spirit and serenity of a small, close-knit community. Since the Oklahoma Land Rush of 1889, Norman has grown into a popular and smart city. The spirit of Norman and its citizens is unwavering and uncompromising. While other towns were clamoring to become the state capital, Norman residents wanted to have the first state university. When the first OU president got off the train and saw a prairie, he saw opportunity. As home to the state’s premier educational institution, Norman boasts an excellent quality of life and is a city that thrives on and celebrates the diversity of its community. Legendary University of Oklahoma football coach Barry Switzer called Norman “a university town with a championship spirit.” Norman continually exhibits its love for sports by hosting numerous local and national athletic events.

MEDIA INFORMATION Credential Requests
Requests for media credentials to University of Oklahoma home games should be made online at SoonerSportsMedia.com. Only those requests submitted by the sports editor of a newspaper or the sports director for a radio or television station will be considered.
Credential requests for the 2005 Oklahoma football season will only be accepted online at SoonerSportsMedia.com. Please visit the website for complete instructions on submitting the online application form.
Priority is given to daily newspapers (by circulation), television stations and radio stations that program sports for more than half of their daily broadcast schedules. A credential does not guarantee a seat and access to the team bench area is prohibited at all times. Credentials include:
Sideline: Primary recipients are photographers. Only photographers on assignment for accredited publications (not websites) will be afforded credentials. Pass only gains access to the sideline (not the press box). Combination: These are only for those individuals who require access to the press box and the sideline. Few are issued.
Any media member who loses a season credential will automatically be moved to the single-game list for the following season. Media outlets who cannot provide names for passes for an entire season will be placed on the single-game list and should provide names on a weekly basis.
OU-Texas Credentials Those interested in covering the annual Oklahoma-Texas game at Dallas will need to make a separate request for credentials. Each school handles the requests from its regular pool of media. Aside from national media, only season credential holders are eligible.
Credential Pick-up Credentials may be picked up from the media relations office during the week or from media will call (Gate 2) at Gaylord Family - Oklahoma Memorial Stadium on game day (see map on page 57). Photo identification is required for pick up. Each media representative must claim his or her pass. No group pick ups are allowed.
Tuesday: Media Luncheon at 11:30 a.m., at the stadium. Coach Stoops’ comments, beginning at noon, available via telephone to media only (contact Athletics Media Relations for more information). A few players also are available. All coaches^ and players* who do not participate in the luncheon are available following practice. Practice is open to photographers for the first 15 minutes.

The Oklahoma locker room, home or away, is closed to the media at all times. Head coach Bob Stoops and several Sooner players will be brought to a designated interview area. At home games, that area is the Big Red Room, located in the Switzer Center (first floor). At the beginning of the fourth quarter, interview requests will be collected. For games in Norman, the opposing head coach will meet with the media inside the opponent interview room, the SoonerVision studio (southwest corner, under the stadium grandstands). A representative from the OU Media Relations Office will be on hand to assist the media in finding this area. Interviews with the head coach and players from the visiting team will be based on the post-game policy of that institution. * Some players have evening classes that could preclude them from postpractice interviews. ^ Bob Stoops’ weekly radio show takes place each Tuesday night during the season. Depending on the length of the workout, he may not be available for interviews after practice.
OKLAHOM A HISTORY
Texas will serve as the host school this year. Any media not based in the state of Oklahoma should contact the Texas Athletics Media Relations Office with credentials requests. OU-Texas credentials will be distributed to local media at the Tuesday media luncheon in Norman.

No credentials will be mailed, but outlets willing to provide an overnight account number no later than Wednesday of game week may receive them in that manner.

Jason White, who played just one series deep into the second half, completed 14-of-18 passes for 257 yards and two touchdowns. The running game was in high gear, too. Adrian Peterson picked up 117 yards and two touchdowns on 25 carries to key a team total of 276 rushing yards for the Sooners.

It rarely gets better than this. Oklahoma had 214 rushing yards and 213 passing yards. That, coupled with a defensive effort that kept Oregon’s high-powered offense out of the end zone most of the day, led to OU’s 31-7 victory over the Ducks. The win capped a fifth straight season in which the Sooners won all of their regular season non-conference games. Adrian Peterson ran for 183 yards and became the first OU freshman ever to gain 100 yards in his first three games. Jason White was steady, completing 17-of-23 passes for 213 yards and one touchdown. The defense, spearheaded by Donte Nicholson’s 11 tackles, shut down the Oregon offense.

Adrian Peterson shredded Texas for 225 yards on 32 carries and the Sooner defense held the Longhorns, No. 6 in the nation in scoring before the game, to a goose egg. It marked the first shutout of UT in 282 games, and the first by OU over its rival since 1972. The win was Oklahoma’s fifth straight in the series, the second longest streak by OU over UT, and it gave Bob Stoops his 60th victory as the Sooners’ head coach. Trey DiCarlo started the scoring with a pair of short field goals, made more treacherous by wet conditions. The Sooners then removed all doubt with an 11-play, 80-yard march midway through the fourth quarter. Kejuan Jones covered the last six yards to give Oklahoma a lead that looked twice as big due to the way the team’s defense was playing.

White fired four touchdown strikes and a dominant Sooner defense logged five sacks, while limiting KSU running back Darren Sproles to just 34 yards on 13 carries. Oklahoma trailed twice in the game, but after falling behind 21-17 in the third period, the Sooners mounted a 10-play, 72-yard drive that yielded the go-ahead score. White engineered the march, hitting all five of his passing attempts, including a 15-yarder to Mark Clayton for the TD.
OKLAHOM A HISTORY
GAME SUMMARY As matter of fact victories go, this one was, well, typical. Oklahoma took care of business in its Big 12 opener, 28-13. Jason White was the picture of efficiency, completing 15-of-24 passes with three touchdowns and no interceptions. Running back Adrian Peterson, making his first start, ran 22 times for 146 yards and one score. On defense, OU did something it had not done all season -- intercept a pass. In fact, it intercepted three, including two by Brodney Pool. Tech piled up yards, but its normally high-scoring offense did not yield a touchdown until the 4:50 mark of the final period, and its point output was 25 below its season average.

White connected on 27-of-44 passes for 389 yards and four touchdowns with no interceptions. And by the end of the day, that running game that KU was trying to stop erupted anyway. Adrian Peterson tied Emmitt Smith and Marshall Faulk in reaching the 1,000-yard mark as quickly as any freshman in 1-A history -- 7 games. He had 22 rushes for 122 yards and one touchdown. In the meantime, the OU defense shut down Kansas. Seventy-eight of the Jayhawks’ 256 yards came on one play.

Jason White tossed three first-half touchdown passes, all to Mark Bradley, and Adrian Peterson broke loose for a career-high 249 rushing yards to spearhead the offense. The OU defense held Cowboy running back Vernand Morency under 100 yards for the first time in the season. OSU had a chance to send the game to overtime, but Jason Ricks’ 49-yard field goal with 11 seconds remaining sailed left.

Texas A&M, which scored two touchdowns on faked kicks, tied the game at 35 with 10:08 remaining, before White answered with a 39-yard TD strike to Mark Bradley.

The Sooner offense was slow out of the gates, but went to the locker room with a 14-0 halftime lead on the strength of a late second-quarter touchdown that set the tone for the remainder of the game. Oklahoma’s defense was nearly flawless in racking up a season-high seven sacks. Larry Birdine had three of those sacks and also forced a fumble that set up the Sooners’ first touchdown of the game. Baylor managed just two pushes into OU territory, one each half, and the Bears got no deeper than the 44 in the second half. Garrett Hartley shed his redshirt during the second quarter and converted all four of his extra point attempts.

But rarely had the Sooners been so dominating in sewing up a league crown as they were in securing No. 39. OU steamrolled Colorado 42-3 and thus secured an invitation to the BCS title game. The Sooner offense was its typically high-powered self, but this was a night when the defense simply broke an opponent’s will. Colorado had three first downs for the game and recorded 46 total yards, the fewest by any opponent during the Bob Stoops era. All the while, the OU offense was moving at will, especially early when it scored on four of its first five possessions.
OKLAHOM A HISTORY
GAME SUMMARY On a night when 23 Oklahoma players saw their final action on Owen Field, the Sooners systematically dismantled Nebraska, 30-3, before a record home crowd of 84,916. Both Jason White and the OU defense played nearly flawless football. White connected on 29-of-35 passes for 383 yards with three touchdowns and no interceptions. During one stretch, he completed 18 consecutive throws to break his own school record. Travis Wilson proved to be the favorite target. He established career highs with nine receptions and 135 receiving yards. The defense came within one snap of shutting out Nebraska and ending the Huskers’ 111game scoring streak but NU was able to boot a 39-yard field goal on the game’s final play.

The Trojans played a nearly flawless game, made even more so by five OU turnovers, and cruised to the BCS title, 55-19. Oklahoma got on the board first after marching 92 yards in 12 plays. USC answered with a touchdown on its next possession before the teams traded punts. The game turned for good when OU’s Mark Bradley muffed the punt and Southern Cal scored on the next play. Oklahoma finished the season at 12-1.
Oklahoma’s 11-game schedule for 2005 includes six home games at Gaylord Family - Oklahoma Memorial Stadium.

To lure the Sooners to Miami, the Orange Bowl director circled the Norman campus, leaving chalk messages that promoted the game. Tennessee’s powerful ground attack was too much for the Sooners, winners of 14 straight, as the Volunteers raced to a 17-0 victory in the fifth annual Orange Bowl. The victory was the 13th straight for the Vols, who were coached by Major Bob Neyland. The game was considered to be the roughest of all bowl games played that year as both teams combined for more than 200 yards in penalties.

The Sooners did not take long to get on the scoreboard, two minutes to be exact, on an Eddie Davis one-yard plunge. N.C. State roared back to even the score, but OU put the game out of reach by scoring 20 second-quarter points and coasted from there. The marquee matchup was made possible because of the Tournament of Roses committee decision to match representatives of the Western Athletic Conference (now the Pac Ten) and the Big Nine, (now the Big 10). This agreement made it possible for teams not waiting for a possible Rose Bowl berth to be picked by the Gator Bowl committee.

However, Kentucky, coached by Paul “Bear” Bryant, upset the Sooners and broke a 31-game OU winning streak. OU lost a bowl-record five fumbles in falling behind 13-0. A fourth quarter 17-yard TD pass by Billy Vessels narrowed the margin but a come-from-behind effort was foiled by an interception in the final minute of play.

Maryland came into the game as the regular season national champion with OU rated fourth. Twice, the Terrapins had first down with the ball inside the 10-yard line, and both times the Sooner defense refused to allow any points on the scoreboard. Sooner tailback Larry Grigg scored the only TD of the game with a 25-yard scamper in the second period. The 1954 bowl game was the first bowl game in which the players had to play both ways. Sooner hero Grigg also played defensive back.
REVIEW & OPPONENTS OKLAHOM A HISTORY
GAME SUMMARY Wilkinson’s team was rated second in the nation and it was the first one of his squads to post an undefeated record, 10-0. The game was one-sided and still stands as the largest margin of victory in OU bowl history. One of the many Sooner big plays was Leon Heath’s OU bowl record-breaking 86-yard TD run. The game was marred by an early-week incident where a former LSU player was caught spying on Sooner practices. It was the only time in Wilkinson’s career that he publicly blasted an opponent.

Duke, the ACC winner, was unranked. Oklahoma got only six first downs, lost the total offense battle (328 yards to 279) and picked up an OU bowl-record 165 yards in penalties, but used two interception returns for TD, including an OU bowl record 94-yarder from David Baker, two fumble recoveries, a blocked punt and a bad snap from center to win going away. The 48 points marked an all-time OU bowl record that stood until matched by the ‘91 Gator Bowl team.

It was the Sooners’ fourth straight Orange Bowl victory. Oklahoma ended the season ranked fifth in the nation, its only loss a one-pointer to Texas.

Although a slight underdog to the Vols, OU broke out to a 19-0 halftime lead. Tennessee came back to narrow the Sooner lead to 19-17 before Oklahoma defensive back Bob Stephenson picked off a pass and raced 24 yards to give OU an all important insurance TD. The Sooners desperately needed the insurance when Dewey Warren plowed in from a yard out. The Volunteers then missed a potential game-winning field goal as the gun went off.
OKLAHOM A HISTORY
GAME SUMMARY Florida State used a sophisticated passing attack to win easily. To add insult to injury, four of the Seminoles’ TD passes were thrown on fourth-down plays. Four Oklahoma players had been found ineligible the night before the game because they had signed pro contracts which was in violation of NCAA rules. FSU wide receiver Fred Biletnikoff finished the game with 13 receptions for 192 yards and four TDs.
TENNESSEE OKLAHOMA
REVIEW & OPPONENTS
GAME SUMMARY It was Bud Wilkinson’s last bowl game. Paul “Bear” Bryant, coaching his alma mater, repeated his victory as the coach at Kentucky in the 1951 Sugar Bowl with a 17-0 triumph. LB Lee Roy Jordan, the MVP, and quarterback Joe Namath led the Crimson Tide to the victory. The Sooners had first and goal twice in the first half, but fumbles ended OU’s chances and the Sooners never really threatened again. The lone highlight for the Oklahoma team was a visit by President John F. Kennedy to the Sooners’ locker room. Although President Kennedy claimed neutrality, it was obvious by the grimace on his face he was backing the Oklahoma team.

The Sooners had switched to the wishbone and they were running it to perfection by the time the bowl game rolled around. The “bone” produced 349 yards rushing and touchdown runs of 58 and 25 yards by All-American Greg Pruitt, but the Sooners still needed a late field goal by Bruce Derr to forge the tie with the Crimson Tide.

OKLAHOM A HISTORY
GAME SUMMARY This was a mismatch that was decided early on as Oklahoma rolled up almost 500 yards in total offense and cruised to an easy victory. The Sooners led 27-0 at the third quarter mark before the reserves added two more scores in the fourth period. OU did not punt the entire game, the only time in Sooner bowl history that had happened.
REVIEW & OPPONENTS
GAME SUMMARY Played for the first time on New Year’s Eve, the Sugar Bowl brought the Big Eight Champion Sooners to do battle with Joe Paterno’s fifthranked Nittany Lions. The Sooner defense posted a shutout while allowing only 11 first downs and 49 yards rushing the entire game. It was the first year that freshmen were eligible and Sooner wide receiver Tinker Owens celebrated with five catches, good for 132 yards and one touchdown. It was also the last game for Sooner head coach Chuck Fairbanks who left for the NFL the following spring.
GAME SUMMARY It was Oklahoma’s first bowl trip under legendary head coach Barry Switzer and a storybook setting. Ohio State, the No. 1-ranked team in the country, had lost in the Rose Bowl earlier in the afternoon. The upset gave the Sooners an opportunity to win the national championship if they could beat the Michigan Wolverines coached by Bo Schembechler. A 39-yard end around by Billy Brooks and a nine-yard keeper by Steve Davis were enough for a 14-6 victory and a fifth national championship.

When Notre Dame downed Texas in the Cotton Bowl, OU was in the running for a national championship. A big win over Arkansas might impress the voters and secure the crown for the Sooners. As a result, Switzer went against his own strategy by choosing to receive the opening kickoff rather than play defense. OU fumbled inside its own 10 on the third play of the game and Arkansas immediately scored for a lead it never relinquished.

The Sooners, ranked No. 1 with one loss, had lost a heartbreaker to the Cornhuskers, 17-14, on a late fumble at the NU three-yard line. When the Huskers were upset the following week by Missouri, producing a Big Eight Championship tie, the Orange Bowl officials came up with the idea of a rematch, much to the Sooners’ joy and the Huskers’ shock. It went as predicted: an Oklahoma victory.

After the Seminoles took a 7-0 first-quarter lead, OU unleashed 17 second-quarter points to take the lead for good. J.C. Watts was named Orange Bowl MVP on offense. He scored on a 61-yard option play and rushed for more than 100 yards. Bud Hebert, who recorded three interceptions, earned the award on defense. Billy Sims wrapped up his brilliant collegiate career scoring on a 22-yard pitch from Watts. Oklahoma finished third in the country and won the Orange Bowl for the third time in five tries under Switzer. The Seminoles crossed midfield only two times after the first quarter and never passed the 35-yard line.

Dupree ran wild early, amassing 239 yards before recurrent leg injuries forced him out in the third quarter. The turning point came when Oklahoma punter Michael Keeling could not get his punt away and was forced to throw an illegal pass. The Devils took over at the OU 43 and later scored when Darryl Clack raced 15 yards for at TD.
OKLAHOM A HISTORY
GAME SUMMARY This contest featured a rematch with a great deal more excitement as OU turned to a foreign weapon, the pass, to notch its third straight Orange Bowl win. QB J.C. Watts was chosen MVP and with good reason. The Seminoles used a fourth-quarter TD to break a 10-10 tie and seemingly gain control. OU was forced to start deep in its own territory after the kickoff with little time left. Watts went to work and passed the Sooners to the 11-yard line where he hit Steve Rhodes with a TD strike to pull the Sooners to within one with less than a minute to go. Watts then proceeded to hit tight end Forrest Valora for the two-point conversion that gave the Sooners their ninth Orange Bowl victory, including three in the last four years. Oklahoma finished ranked No. 3 in the nation.

GAME SUMMARY Brigham Young was No. 1 in the polls, but Sooner head coach Barry Switzer had argued that the Sooners should be No. 1 because of a tougher schedule. A win over a fine Husky team would solidify that claim. However, Washington refused to cooperate and turned a 17-14 fourthquarter deficit into a 28-17 triumph. The game was marked by a bizarre incident when, after an Oklahoma field goal, the Sooner Schooner raced onto the field as called for by tradition. The only problem was the drivers apparently had not received the proper permission for the trip. The team was penalized 15 yards and the loss of the three points.
GAME SUMMARY A swarming defense, a record field goal performance and two big plays helped the Oklahoma Sooners defeat Penn State to capture both the Orange Bowl and the program’s sixth national championship. Butkus Award winner Brian Bosworth had 13 solo tackles and the Oklahoma secondary picked off four Penn State passes to thwart any rallies. Tim Lashar booted an Orange Bowl record four field goals to give the Sooners an early lead. Lydell Carr and Keith Jackson then provided big plays, a 61-yard jaunt by Carr and a 71-yard pass play from Jamelle Holieway to Jackson.

LB Danté Jones, playing in place of All-American Brian Bosworth, led the defense which held the Hogs to just 48 rushing yards. Spencer Tillman gained 109 yards rushing on just seven carries. His totals included a 77-yard TD to give OU the early 7-0 lead. Todd Thomsen set an Orange Bowl record with five punts for a 47.6-yard average.

On the Sooners’ last possession, OU took the ball over on its own 20 with 2:59 left on the clock. QB Jamelle Holieway, playing in his final game, scampered 11 yards on a fourth down to keep the drive alive. Holieway then completed passes of five, seven, four, 12, seven, 12 and 13 yards, to get OU inside the Tiger 14 with 12 seconds remaining. Two desperation heaves by Holieway dropped incomplete to end all Oklahoma hopes.

Gundy was 25-of-31, including 11 straight completions, for 329 yards and two TDs. The Sooners scored touchdowns on four of their first five possessions to put the game out of reach before halftime. The OU defense never allowed the Cavaliers inside the 20. The 48 points tied the OU bowl game record (48-21 over Duke in the ‘58 Orange Bowl).
OKLAHOM A HISTORY
GAME SUMMARY The Sooners’ hopes of winning their seventh national championship were put to rest by Miami, 20-14. The Hurricanes took the opening kickoff and moved 65 yards in eight plays for a 7-0 lead, then never looked back. The Sooner offense, which led the nation in six categories, was held to only 179 rushing yards and 255 overall. Late in the fourth quarter, the Sooners scored on a 29-yard fumblerooski which gave the Oklahoma faithful a flicker of hope. The Hurricane defenders blew it out when they sacked quarterback Charles Thompson and caused a fumble to ensure the victory.

Meanwhile, the nation’s second-leading rusher was held to just 95 yards by the Sooner defense.

OU’s defense surrendered 485 yards and four touchdowns through the air. BYU’s John Walsh set Copper Bowl records for completions (31) and TD passes (4). Sooner linebacker Broderick Simpson was Defensive Player of the Game with 13 tackles, a sack and a broken up pass.

Oklahoma’s defense was that much better. The final statistics were as chilling and stark as the weather. The Razorbacks, who reached OU territory just two times the entire game, could muster only 13 passing yards on two completions while their rushing attempts (42) outnumbered their rushing yards (37). Sooner defenders tied a school and Cotton Bowl record with a whopping nine sacks. Late in the first quarter, Oklahoma set sail on a 13-play, 63-yard scoring drive that culminated in a oneyard sneak by quarterback Nate Hybl. Along the way, the Sooners converted two third downs and one fourth. The resulting touchdown and PAT made the rest of the afternoon academic. OU added a 32-yard field goal by Tim Duncan in the third frame to build a 10-0 advantage that felt like twice that given the play of the defense. Arkansas, aided by penalties, finally scratched out a field goal, but no serious threat to the outcome was ever mounted.

OU’s defense logged six sacks and two interceptions to set the tone. Rose Bowl MVP Nate Hybl tossed two TD passes and Quentin Griffin rushed for 144 yards as the OU offense wore down the Cougars. Oklahoma became just the fourth school in college football history to win the four BCS games and the Cotton Bowl.

OKLAHOM A HISTORY
GAME SUMMARY Top-ranked Oklahoma used a smothering defense to shut down the third-ranked Seminoles and Josh Heupel generated enough offense to lead OU to a perfect season. As the nation’s only unbeaten team, the Sooners were the unanimous winners of the AP media poll. They were automatically crowned national champions in the coaches’ poll under the Bowl Championship Series format. Led by Orange Bowl MVP Torrance Marshall, the Sooners time and again forced Florida State’s Chris Weinke into bad decisions. Tim Duncan kicked two field goals and Quentin Griffin scored the clinching touchdown on a 10-yard run up the middle with 8:30 to play. Florida State avoided its first shutout in 12 seasons when Stanford Samuels tackled OU punter Jeff Ferguson in the end zone for a safety with 55 seconds remaining.

Oklahoma entered the game as the naton’s top scoring offense, but struggled against the Tigers. The OU defense gave a good account too, surrendering 64 of LSU’s 312 total yards on a non-scoring run on the Tigers’ first snap. Still, it was the LSU defenders who stole the show. DE Marcus Spears returned an interception 20 yards for a TD on the first series of the second half and seemingly opened the floodgates. But OU stiffened and got its running game untracked. After pulling within seven at 21-14, the Sooners made another push to the LSU 12, but missed on four straight pass attempts, the last one with just 2:46 left. The crowd was the largest ever to see a sporting event in the Louisiana Superdome.

Billy “Curly” Vessels was the man who started it all. The first Sooner to win college football’s most prestigious individual achievement award, Vessels led the Sooners to a 26-4-1 record during his tenure.
Oklahoma’s Steve Owens was a 6-2, 215-pound powerhouse from Miami, Okla., who ravaged defenses from 1967-69, setting four conference records of the day.
The 1950 Sooners, under the direction of head coach Bud Wilkinson, went 10-1 to give the Sooners their first of seven national championships. As a sophomore, Vessels started on the 1950 squad, scoring 15 touchdowns.
OU’s workhorse carried the ball 358 times in 1969 for 1,523 yards while scoring 23 touchdowns (another school record). Playing on a 1969 squad that had been hurt badly by graduation in 1968, Owens carried the load for the Sooner offense.
But Vessels’ most successful individual season came during his senior campaign when he won the Heisman Trophy. Vessels rushed for 1,072 yards on 167 carries and scored 17 touchdowns. Creating a new meaning for the word “versatile,” the Cleveland, Okla., slasher was part of every phase of the Sooner offensive attack. Vessels was even a threat from above. “Curly” connected on seven passes for two touchdowns in 1952. The 1952 Sooners went 8-1-1, finishing fourth in the nation, and won Oklahoma’s ninth conference title. OU opened with a 21-21 tie with Colorado and then reeled off five straight wins, averaging 46 points a game. OU dropped a 27-21 decision to Notre Dame and then finished strong by sweeping the last three games. In 1953, Vessels turned pro for the Edmonton Eskimos and won the Schenley Award as the top player in Canada. Vessels then served as an officer in the U.S. Army. Vessels was elected to the National Football Foundation and College Hall of Fame in 1974. CAREER STATISTICS Year Att Yds 1950 152 938 1951 27 143 1952 167 1,072 Totals 346 2,153

Owens had two 200-plus yard games while leading the Sooners to a 6-4 season. Spurred by Owens’ effort, Oklahoma averaged 28.5 points a game in 1969. The great career of Steve Owens left a mark on the OU record book. Owens holds five Sooner records. He is the school’s all-time leading scorer with 57 touchdowns during his career. Owens holds the record for the most carries in a game (55) and career (958). He finished his career with 4,041 yards on the ground, the third most in school history. Detroit drafted Owens in the first round. He was the first Lion to gain over 1,000 yards in a season and was an All-Pro selection in 1971 and 1972. In 1991, Owens was named to the Oklahoma Sports Hall of Fame and was the Walter Camp Foundation Alumnus of the Year. Owens was inducted into the Orange Bowl Hall of Honor in 1992.

Billy Sims, a 6-0, 205-pound running back from Hooks, Texas, swept through defenses like a tornado flying across the Oklahoma landscape.
OU quarterback Jason White became the trigger man for the country’s most potent offensive attack. At a school where the points have flowed like an Oklahoma gusher, White led the OU team that outscored all of its predecessors (601 total points).
He set a Big Eight single-season rushing record in 1978 with 1,896 yards on 256 carries. Sims led the nation in rushing, averaging more than 7.0 yards per carry. He topped the 200-yard mark in four different games (a school best) during the 1978 season. Sims led the Sooners to an 11-1 record, Orange Bowl championship and third-place finish in the final poll. OU opened with a 35-29 win over Stanford and then crushed West Virginia and Rice by a combined score of 118-17.
OU responded by clubbing Oklahoma State, 62-7, and then was rematched with the Cornhuskers in the Orange Bowl. OU edged Nebraska 31-24 in the second meeting between the top-10 schools.

REVIEW & OPPONENTS
Sims is second in the OU record books for rushing yards in a season (1,896), most 200-yard games in a season (4) and a career (7). He finished his career with 4,118 yards and stands first on the all-time rushing list.
White set school records for touchdown passes in a season (40) and game (5, twice). His season passing total ranked No. 2 at OU. He was No. 4 nationally in touchdown percentage (8.87), No. 7 in passing efficiency (158.11), No. 18 in interception percentage (2.22) and No. 22 in total offense (264.0).
THE SOONERS
The Sooners rolled over Texas and the first five games of the conference schedule heading into the Nebraska game. Sims ran for 153 yards, but it was not enough as the Sooners fell, 17-14.
He did so with uncanny accuracy, especially on deep throws, and a touchdown to interception ratio (four to one), so gaudy that it read like a typographical error.

ALL-AMERICANS UNDER STOOPS A two-time finalist for the Rimington Award as the nation’s top center, Vince Carter was a four-year fixture at Oklahoma. He was rewarded as a senior when he was named to the presitgious Walter Camp All-America team.
Dan Cody was so destructive as a senior that OU coaches devised a special position for him. Cody, at times, stood up from his defensive end spot to play a spinner role. In that capacity, he roamed the defensive front and menaced opposing offenses. At season’s end, he had the top sack total in the Big 12 with 10 and a spot on the FWAA’s All-America team. Cody was a two-time finalist for the Hendricks Award who was noted for his all-out effort. At Texas A&M, he blacked out while exhorting teammates, then returned to the game.
The Waco, Texas, native stepped in as a freshman when Josh Smith went out with an injury in 2001 and went on to start at center for the Sooners for four seasons. He earned first team All-Big 12 Conference honors in 2003 and 2004. As a senior in 2004, Carter helped pave the way for running back Adrian Peterson and protected quarterback Jason White -- both Heisman Trophy finalists -- as the Sooners completed a second consecutive undefeated regular season and won the 2004 Big 12 Conference Championship. As a junior in 2003, Carter finished with 118 knockdowns and one sack allowed. He did not start the first game of the season due to an injury, but then started the last 13.
Cody also led the team in sacks in 2003 with 10 including three in Oklahoma’s 52-9 rout of in-state rival Oklahoma State. The Ada, Okla., native led the team in tackles for loss with 17 (-93 yards) and was No. 3 on the team in quarterback hurries with 17. He earned second team Academic All-Big 12.
2004 & 2003 * ALL-AMERICAN * JAMMAL BROWN * OT
The best season ever by a freshman? The argument could be made. Adrian Peterson set an NCAA freshman rushing record for most rushing yards with the third-highest figure in the nation for the season. He also eclipsed the OU standard for most rushing yards in a season.
A dominating senior season led to Jammal Brown earning Oklahoma’s fourth Outland Trophy. He followed that up as a first-round pick (No. 13) by the New Orleans Saints. He did not allow a sack or hurry during the regular season while logging a team-best 130 knockdown blocks. At season’s end Brown was a consensus All-American.
Peterson broke three NCAA freshman rushing records: most consecutive 100-yard rushing games (9), most total 100-yard rushing games (11) and most rushing attempts by a freshman with 314. Year 2004

As a junior, Brown had the highest line grade in a year when the offense had one of the most productive seasons in school history. The performance landed the Lawton native on the American Football Coaches Association’s first team All-America squad. Brown had 127 knockdowns and ran his string of consecutive starts to 28 during the season. The Sooners posted their highest scoring total ever with 601 points. By allowing just one sack, Brown also proved a key protector for Heisman winner Jason White. As a junior in 2003, Brown had the highest season grade among Oklahoma’s offensive linemen and finished with a team-high 127 knockdown blocks and just one sack allowed. Brown’s athleticism and speed for a 313-pounder were on display in OU’s win over UCLA when he ran down Bruin linebacker Spencer Havner to make a touchdown-saving tackle at the end of a 72-yard interception return.
OKLAHOM A HISTORY
Peterson’s durability was surprising for a freshman. He led the nation with 339 rushing attempts and went over 100 yards in 11 of 13 games, including his debut. A thundering power back, he also had eight bursts of 35 yards or longer and 44 of 10 or more.

As a sophomore in 2002, Carter helped open holes for OU’s first 1,000yard rusher (Quentin Griffin) since Bob Stoops became the head coach. As a freshman in 2001, Carter started the last nine regular season games and the Cotton Bowl at center. He was named to The Sporting News AllAmerica second team.

2003 * ALL-AMERICAN * ANTONIO PERKINS * RS
Noted as one of the great stories of progress in OU history, Mark Clayton went from struggling to bench press 135 pounds in his first workout to twice being named an All-American. By the time his career was over, he held virtually every Sooner receiving record and was widely regarded as the best to ever play the position at the school.
Antonio Perkins became the nation’s most feared punt returner by re-writing the NCAA record book during his junior season. He set an NCAA mark with four returns for touchdowns on the season, including an NCAA record three against UCLA.
After a wildly successful junior season, Clayton’s numbers dipped somewhat as a senior, but that was attributable to an improved runnin`g game and a deeper receiving corps. He still led OU in receptions and yards and was named the the AFCA All-America team. Moreover, when punt returner Antonio Perkins was injured, Clayton added that role and took back one for a touchdown at OSU. As a junior, Clayton built a reputation as perhaps the most elusive receiver in the nation with 533 yards after catch (YAC). He set OU standards with 83 receptions for 1,425 yards and broke the school mark for receiving yards in a game with 190 against Texas. Year 2001 2002 2003 2004 Total

He also set an NCAA mark with 277 punt return yards against the Bruins. His other touchdown return, which tied the NCAA career mark at seven, came against Missouri. The returns were spectacular too, with lengths of 84, 74 and 65 against UCLA and 65 against Missouri. Perkins, who also started every game at cornerback and had two interceptions on the season, finished No. 20 in the nation in return average, but that figure was diluted by the fact that his 53 attempts out-distanced the rest of the country’s returners by at least eight.

Derrick Strait duplicated former OU great Roy Williams by winning the Nagurski (best defensive player) and Thorpe (best defensive back) Awards in 2003. Strait earned consensus All-American and All-Big 12 honors as a senior. He was named AP Big 12 Defensive Player of the Year.
From two reconstructive knee surgeries in successive years to consensus All-American. That was the out-of-the-blue story for Jason White, who wasn’t even announced as the team’s starter until the summer before the 2003 season. He posted mind-boggling numbers, the most impressive of which were the 40 touchdowns and just 10 interceptions.
Strait set school records for starts (53), career interception return yards (397) and passes broken up (53). The Austin native ignited Oklahoma’s 65-13 win over Texas in 2003 with a season-high 11 tackles, an interception, a 30-yard return, two fumble recoveries and three pass deflections against the Longhorns. Strait was a Thorpe Award semifinalist and consensus first team All-Big 12 selection in 2002. He started every game at corner and tied for the OU lead with six interceptions. He contributed immediately as a redshirt freshman and was named Big 12 Conference Defensive Newcomer of the Year in Oklahoma’s 2000 National Championship season. Year 2000 2001 2002 2003 Totals

White proved particularly adept at completing the long ball and set a school season record with 17 hookups of 40 or more yards. He completed 50 percent or more of his passes in all but two games and was over 60 percent nine times, including 16-of-21 against Texas and 16-of-18 vs. Texas A&M. He fired five TD strikes against both Iowa State and A&M and had a career-high 394 passing yards against Texas Tech. Year 1999* 2000 2001 2002* 2003 2004 Totals

ALL-AMERICANS UNDER STOOPS Tommie Harris rose to the pinnacle of his position in his junior season, which would be his last at OU. He departed for the NFL after just three years in Norman. As a junior, he continued to rocket into opposing backfields with his uncanny quickness. Harris had 10 tackles for loss and 19 quarterback hurries.
Determining the greatest linebacker in OU history is a tough chore. With Teddy Lehman in the mix, determining the fastest is much easier. That speed, which made him an outstanding high school sprinter, set the Sooner backer apart from his peers. He capped a brilliant career by winning the Butkus and Bednarik Awards after finishing as a finalist for each just one year earlier. His ability to get from sideline to sideline caught a lot of attention ... and ball carriers. As a senior, he had 117 tackles, including 19 for 47 yards in losses.
After finishing as a finalist for the Lombardi Award one year earlier, he won the coveted piece of hardware in his final Sooner season. He also was one of four finalists for the Nagurski Award, which went to teammate Derrick Strait. Harris’ sophomore season was impressive despite an injury. Slowed all by a groin pull suffered in August, Harris still faced regular double teams. He was named to three All-America squads and was named a finalist for the Bednarik Award. He was the 14th overall selection in the 2004 draft by the Chicago Bears. UT 19 13 19 51

Most punters are known for the length and/or the accuracy of their kicks. Jeff Ferguson was outstanding in both areas. But Ferguson separated himself with athletic ability and intelligent play that made him the complete player at his position. He ended his career as the school record holder for punting average in a career and became just the second player in school history to average more than 40 yards in each of his four seasons. The length of the kicks did not come at the expense of accuracy. Twenty-one of his 71 senior season punts were downed inside the 20-yard line. The thunderous punts and the balls that trickled dead deep in enemy territory will be secondary as time remembers Ferguson’s career, though. In his junior season, he made a brilliant play in the national championship game against Florida State, turning a bad snap into a safety rather than an opportunity for the Seminoles to get back into the game.
Six interceptions, with 107 yards in returns, would indicate that Everage understood the centerfield nature of his position. The 94 tackles, thirdhighest on the team, speak to the linebacker-like mentality with which the Oklahoma free safety played. It was that combination of abilities that landed Everage on the All-America rolls. Everage recorded 60 tackles in 2003 (44 solo) including four for loss and one sack. He also nabbed one interception with four passes broken up. Year 2000 2001 2002 2003 Totals

As a junior, Lehman logged 112 tackles, including 17 for loss. He also had two interceptions, which went for 51 yards in returns, including one that set up the go-ahead touchdown against Texas. His one-yard return against Texas as a sophomore, the one that came on the back end of a play that saw Roy Williams leap a blocker to disrupt Longhorn QB Chris Simms, is one of the most memorable plays in school history. He was picked in the second round of the 2004 draft by the Detroit Lions.

By the time his career was over, Roy Williams was more feared by offensive opponents and more respected by his defensive peers than any player in the country.
Only a few players define their position, but that is precisely what Rocky Calmus meant to college football. As a senior, he won the Dick Butkus Award as the nation’s top linebacker, but also was a finalist for the Nagurski and Bednarik Awards as the nation’s best defender and the Lombardi Award as the country’s top interior player. His senior year total of 117 tackles vaulted him into Oklahoma’s top five career tacklers and capped an incredible career.
In his final season at Oklahoma, he won the Nagurski Award as the nation’s top defender and the Thorpe Award as the nation’s top defensive back. He was No. 7 in the Heisman Trophy voting, the highest finish of the year by a non-quarterback. Williams bypassed his senior season of eligibility to enter the NFL draft, but still left his mark on the OU record book. He was drafted in the first round (No. 8 pick overall) in the 2002 NFL Draft by the Dallas Cowboys. Year 1999 2000 2001 Totals

As a junior, he was named the toughest player in college football by The Sporting News during the Sooners’ 2000 national championship season. OU’s all-time leader in tackles for a loss by a linebacker, Calmus was named Big 12 Defensive Player of the Year by the Associated Press and was a finalist for the Butkus Award. A first-team All-Big 12 selection in each of his last three seasons, Calmus led the squad in tackles in each of those years. He was drafted in the third round of the 2002 draft by the Tennessee Titans. Year 1998 1999 2000 2001 Totals

The runner-up for the 2000 Heisman Trophy, Josh Heupel became Oklahoma ’s first consensus All-America quarterback and the first Sooner QB to earn All-America honors since Jack Mildren in 1971.
A standout on both defense and special teams, J.T. Thatcher was named an All-American as both a defensive back and returner. The Mosi Tatupu Special Teams Player of the Year Award winner, Thatcher was one of only seven players to return two or more punts for a touchdown in 2000 and ranked ninth nationally in punt return average. A four-time Big 12 Special Teams Player of the Week selection, Thatcher set OU’s single-game (160) and single-season (599) records for punt return yards. He also posted the second-highest single-game kickoff return yard total with 150, including a 93-yard return to set up OU’s go-ahead touchdown against second-ranked Kansas State. Thatcher was a semifinalist for the Jim Thorpe Award and tied school records for interceptions in a game (3) and season (8).
As team captain his two years with the Sooners, Heupel is largely credited with turning an offense that statistically ranked as one of the worst in the nation before his arrival into one of the most explosive in the country. Heupel was named Associated Press Player of the Year, Walter Camp Player of the Year, The Sporting News Player of the Year, CBS Sports Player of the Year, Big 12 Player of the Year and Big 12 Offensive Player of the Year in 2000. The first-team all-conference selection guided OU to a school-record 13 wins and its seventh national championship. Heupel left with virtually every OU and numerous Big 12 passing records.

OKLAHOMA TRADITIONS Records & Championships
CC CC
Sports fans are hard-pressed to find a nickname that is as unique and as linked to a state’s history as a Sooner. The University of Oklahoma is the only school known as Sooners. Oklahoma Territory opened with the Land Run of 1889. Settlers from across the globe, seeking free land, made their way to the prairies of the plains to stake their claim to a new life. One of the few rules to claiming a lot of land was that all participants were to start at the same time, on the boom of a cannon. Settlers who went too early were called “Sooners.”
CC
OU athletic teams were called either Rough Riders or Boomers for 10 years before the current Sooner nickname emerged in 1908. The university actually derived their name from a pep club called ‘The Sooner Rooters.’ The success of University of Oklahoma athletic teams over the years has made the nickname synonymous with winning.
Crimson & Cream
In the fall of 1895, Miss May Overstreet, was asked to chair a committee to select the colors of the university. The committee decided the colors should be crimson and cream and an elaborate display of the colors was draped above a platform before the student body. The students approved with great enthusiasm and immediately pennants, banners and decorations of every description appeared on the streets, in the windows, at chapel, in classrooms, and all public places around campus.
CC CC CC
Sooner Schooner
The Sooner Schooner is a Conestoga, or covered wagon, reminiscent of the mode of travel used by pioneers who settled Oklahoma. The Schooner is powered by matching white ponies named Boomer and Sooner, and it ventures onto Owen Field in a triumphant victory ride after OU scores. Although the Schooner was introduced in 1964, it did not become the official mascot until 1980. The Schooner is well-recognized by college athletics fans across the country and makes regular appearances at university functions.
Boomer Sooner!
In 1905, Arthur M. Alden, a student in history and physiology whose father was a Norman jeweler, wrote the lyrics to the fight song, borrowing the tune from Yale University’s ‘Boola Boola’ but improvising the words. A year later, an addition was made to it from North Carolina’s ‘I’m a Tarheel Born’ and the two combined to form the university’s fight song today. Though the tune was first made known by Yale, the everlasting success of Sooner squads has taken the melody of ‘Boomer Sooner’ to national popularity.
Oklahoma!
The Pride of Oklahoma plays perhaps the most popular and recognizable state song in history. Oklahoma! is the final rousing chorus of Rodgers and Hammerstein’s epic musical. Breaking all Broadway box office records when it opened in 1943, Oklahoma! was the first collaboration between the legendary pair who were awarded a Pulitzer Prize for their seminal work.

The OU Chant
NC CC BC 7 39 23
Every fan who wears the official colors, each current student and student-athlete and all OU alumni are encouraged to stand and raise one finger in the air during the playing of the Chant -- a symbolic gesture that shows the greatness of the university and the unity between all Sooners. The Chant was written in 1936 by Jessie Lone Clarkson Gilkey, who directed the OU girl’s glee club from 1936 to 1938 and was voted Outstanding Faculty Woman in 1937. O-K-L-A-H-O-M-A Our chant rolls on and on! Thousands strong Join heart and song In alma mater’s praise Of campus beautiful by day and night Of colors proudly gleaming Red and White ‘Neath a western sky OU’s chant will never die. Live on University!

The Prentice Gautt Academic Center provides student-athletes with a modern, state-of-the-art academic support facility that promotes excellence. The environment encourages a collaboration between staff members and student-athletes. In addition, it is highly conducive to learning in all areas of students’ academic endeavors and features seven learning centers. Located on the second and third floors in the north end of Gaylord Family - Oklahoma Memorial Stadium, the Academic Center houses Academic Counseling Offices, two Computer Centers, Learning and Skill Development Centers for reading, study skills, math, foreign languages, career, and communication, mentoring office and study areas. ACADEMIC ADVISING Academic Advising Services, considered a campus-advising unit, are conveniently located within the center. The athletics department employs five professional full-time counselors who are here to help student-athletes through the educational process. It is important that student-athletes utilize their services. They will assist student-athletes with planning their class schedule and deciding on a degree program that will suit their needs. In addition, they can help student-athletes with career planning, setting academic goals, academic support strategies and personal counseling. CAREER CENTER Whether student-athletes are freshmen, sophomores, juniors, seniors or alumni, they will benefit from the services of the Career Center. It provides a system of services that educates and guides students through the career development process. The Career Center is dedicated to helping student-athletes make the transition from college to career by developing an individualized career plan where they gather information to assist in making a decision about a career. Additionally, they may obtain information on the suitable career list; explore classes and publications in the field as well as obtain experience; and gain knowledge and skills necessary for résumé writing, job-related letter writing, and interviewing techniques. KERR FOUNDATION COMPUTER CENTER In the 21st century, computers have become an integral part of the learning experience. Students need access to computers and their resources almost daily. The Athletics Department provides each student with the equipment and support necessary to succeed. There are currently two computer centers within the Prentice Gautt Academic Center. These centers have more than 200 computers, and are available exclusively to OU’s student-athletes. This ensures that they will never go without computer access. Laptop computers are checked out to student-athletes when the Computer Centers are unavailable. The laptop program is very important in helping OU’s student-athletes stay on top of their schoolwork when traveling. Group training is available for all new student-athletes during the first week of supervised study. This helps familiarize each student-athlete with the department’s resources and procedures. Individual training sessions are available to each student upon request and lab technicians are always on hand to help. The Athletic Computer Centers have been a model for other universities around the country. Upgrades are scheduled annually for both centers along with a face lift for the entire facility. A deep commitment from the
2005 OKLAHOMA FOOTBALL GUIDE | SOONERSPORTS.COM
Athletics Department ensures that the excellence in the Computer Centers will continue for a long time. COMMUNICATIONS CENTER A new addition to the academic center focuses on developing communication and public speaking skills for student-athletes.

Audio Listening Work Stations – allows student-athletes to listen to various language audio tapes and assigned materials. Foreign Language TV/Video Viewing – provides the opportunity to hear native speakers in conversation as well as providing access to cultural information. There is a TV/VCR combination unit for showing foreign videos and cable connections to allow viewing of foreign language television programs. Word Processing Software – allows student-athletes to complete foreign language writing assignments. After completion, student-athletes are able to print their assignments using the laser printer. Tutoring – offered by the Language Center consultants, knowledgeable of the languages taught at OU, provide individual or group instruction.

As a supplement to class instruction, the Math Center provides all levels of math computations, concepts and problems to help student-athletes review course material and offers personal and group tutoring sessions. STUDY SKILLS CENTER If student-athletes have trouble with assigned textbook readings or studying, the Reading and Study Skills Center can help. It provides studentathletes with reading and studying techniques and how to make direct applications to current resources. THOMPSON WRITING CENTER Because learning and writing are essential life-long skills which can always be strengthened, the Writing and Study Skills Center offers personalized instruction to student-athletes who seek assistance in refreshing, reviewing, or improving these skills. The professional consultants of the center help student-athletes with a variety of academic tasks, from learning strategy instruction to any stage of the writing process including preparing for an essay exam and the formal research paper.

DAVID & MOLLY SHI BOREN
UNIVERSITY PRESIDENT
David L. Boren
13th President, The University of Oklahoma David L. Boren, who has served Oklahoma as governor and U.S. senator, became the thirteenth president of the University of Oklahoma in November 1994. He is the first person in state history to have served in all three positions.
In 1968, he received a law degree from the University of Oklahoma College of Law, where he was on the Law Review, elected to the Order of the Coif, and won the Bledsoe Prize as the outstanding graduate by a vote of the faculty.
As a senator, he was the author of the National Security Education Act in 1992, which provides scholarships for study abroad and for learning additional languages, as well as legislation to restore the tax deductibility of gifts of appreciated property to universities in 1993. Boren, also a former state legislator, spent nearly three decades in elective politics before becoming the president of the University of Oklahoma. Boren was the youngest governor in the nation when he served from 1974 to 1978. Known as a reformer, Boren campaigned with a broom as his
Over $700 million in facilities construction has been initiated during his tenure. During his first decade over $1 billion in private contributions were given to the university and the university contributor base was increased from 17,000 donors to almost 100,000. Presidential Travel Scholarships, students from 111 countries on campus, more reciprocal international exchange agreements than any other university and the new International Programs Center are all making OU more international. Above all, the Boren years have been marked by an emphasis on putting students first. There is not a university president in the country that is more committed to students as his number one priority. He teaches a freshman-level course in political science each semester and is one of the few presidents of major universities to teach. Boren is married to Molly Shi Boren, a former judge and English teacher. Molly Boren has two degrees from the University of Oklahoma, a master’s degree in English and a Juris Doctor degree from the OU College of Law. Mrs. Boren is actively involved in university life and has led the landscaping effort on all three OU campuses. Boren has two children, Carrie Christine Boren and Dan Boren.

OKLAHOM A HISTORY
One of Boren’s most far-reaching projects in promoting quality education at all levels is the Oklahoma Foundation for Excellence, which he founded in 1985. The foundation recognizes outstanding public school students and teachers and helps establish private local foundations to help give academic endowment grants to local public schools.
Under Boren’s leadership, the University of Oklahoma has developed and emerged as a “pacesetter university in American public higher education,” with 20 major new programs initiated since his inauguration. They include establishment of the Honors College, a new expository writing program for freshmen modeled on the program at Harvard, an interdisciplinary religious studies program, a new International Programs Center, and the Faculty-in-Residence Program putting faculty family apartments in student residence halls. The Retired Professors Program has been started, bringing 50 retired full professors back to the University to teach freshmen. The new Honors College helps to assure that no students need to leave Oklahoma to find an educational experience to match their potential.
REVIEW & OPPONENTS
As Oklahoma’s governor from 1974 through 1978, Boren promoted key educational initiatives that have had an enduring impact on Oklahoma. Established during his tenure were: the Oklahoma Summer Arts Institute, the Scholar-Leadership Enrichment Program, and the Oklahoma Physicians Manpower Training Program, which provides scholarships for medical students and medical personnel who commit to practice in underserved rural areas. Also, the first state funding for Gifted and Talented classes was provided in 1976 and, from 1976 through 1978, Oklahoma ranked first among all states in the percentage increases of funding for higher education.
Boren served from 1988 to 1997 as a member of the Yale University Board of Trustees. His university experience also includes four years on the faculty of Oklahoma Baptist University, where he was chairman of the Department of Political Science and chairman of the Division of Social Sciences. In 1993, the American Association of University Professors presented Boren with the Henry Yost Award as Education Advocate of the Year.
THE SOONERS

A graduate of Yale University in 1963, Boren majored in American history, graduated in the top one percent of his class and was elected Phi Beta Kappa. He was selected as a Rhodes Scholar and earned a master’s degree in politics, philosophy and economics from Oxford University, England, in 1965.
Boren left the U.S. Senate in 1994 with an approval rating of 9l percent after being reelected with 83 percent of the vote in 1990, the highest percentage in the nation in a U.S. Senate contest in that election year.
COACHING STAFF
During his time in the U.S. Senate -- from 1979 to 1994 -- Boren was the longest-serving chairman of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence.

Gaylord Family - Oklahoma Memorial Stadium is one of America’s most recognized college football cathedrals. Situated on the east side of the Norman campus, this historical facility is the largest sports arena in the state and, following its recent expansion, now ranks among the 15 largest on-campus facilities in the nation. Memorial Stadium’s rich heritage has not hindered its evolution, a neverending growth fueled by the football program’s overwhelming popularity. Almost since its inception, the stadium has been a work in progress. That fact holds true today. Using bond money and generous contributions, the stadium has recently undergone a number of changes. The most major of those was a $65 million venture that added 8,000 seats, including 27 suites, on the east side. Work was completed in the summer of 2003. At the same time, the press box was remodeled and outfitted with several state of the art features. Another phase of that project stretched into 2004 when renovations to the Santee Lounge, restroom and concessions facilities and a new brick facade on the west side were completed. In the two years prior to the stadium upgrade and expansion, renovations were completed in the coaches’ offices, locker rooms, sports medicine and weight training facilities.
2004 MEMORIAL STADIUM
An additional 27 suites in the new east upper deck opened in time for the 2004 season bringing the total number of suites to 63. In 1921, University of Oklahoma students started a movement for construction of a student union. By 1925, the idea had grown to include a combined football stadium/student union. In the original architect’s drawings, the north end of the proposed structure was strikingly similar to the present Oklahoma Memorial Union, which eventually was constructed separately when head coach Bennie Owen suggested it would be best to raise funds for a union and a stadium. The first game played at the site took place Oct. 20,1923 (a 63-7 win over Washington, Mo.), before the stadium/union plan got under way. The field was named Owen Field after Owen, who became a charter member of the National Football Hall of Fame. In 1925, the first contest was played in front of the new stands on the west side of the field. The 16,000-seat Oklahoma Memorial Stadium, named in honor of University personnel who died in World War I, was erected at a cost of approximately $293,000. Stands on the east side of the stadium were added prior to the 1929 season. That addition increased the seating capacity to 32,000, where it stood for 20 years. In 1949, OU president George L. Cross pushed for expansion and the result was a six-foot lowering of the old playing surface and the elimination of a running track that surrounded the playing area.

In July, 1970 the original natural grass surface was removed and artificial turf was installed. That tartan turf was replaced with super turf before the 1981 season. Owen Field returned to grass in 1994. A Stadium Master Plan was approved by the OU Board of Regents in June 1994. Construction of nine west side suites began in April 1995 and was completed that year. The suites are leased annually. Eight of the suites seat 12 and the President’s suite seats 24.

Eighteen years later came the addition of the upper deck and new press box. Another 8,436 seats were added at a cost of $5,726,345. Capacity for the 1975 National Championship season was 71,187. Before the 1980 season, the old green bleachers were replaced with the new south end zone facility. In addition to improved seating, the complex included coaches’ offices, the weight room, meeting rooms, a training room, the equipment room and two locker rooms. The addition brought the stadium capacity to 75,004. Capacity was decreased to 72,765 prior to the 1998 season to provide more wheelchair seating.

The changes produced 7,000 new ringside seats and brought capacity to 55,000. The north end of the stadium also was enclosed. In 1957, green grandstand bleachers were added to the south end of the field, enabling the stadium to hold 61,836 fans.
Subsequent improvements included the installation of stadium lights to allow night games, a new scoreboard and a video screen.
