Rod B get any love?! I agree about Brackens!! @Blake Munroe do we need to post the kicker destruction to make our case lol? I’m just gunna do it

   

 

 

I knew the girl who married the Tech kicker. They're divorced now I believe.

But I remember her telling me that the kicker never remembered that hit. And I said, "well, I'll never forget it!"

What did the member poll look like? Same top 10?

[Burnt Orange Horn]

Bottom line is this just needs to be a top 50 as there are 25 out of the 2095 team alone.

Agree!

He had better stats in 3 years than Orakpo in 4!

I would actually have Brackens tied with DJ at 4

Hahaha I bet he didn’t. She probably got the ick after seeing him get demolished by TB lol. I’ll never forget that hit either. I was watching with a bunch of friends in middle school at a birthday party and my dad and brother were at the game. It’s all any of us could talk about for 2 weeks straight.

Brackens was a shining light in an era of dark and ill-advised defensive schemes.  

I would have a hard time putting him over Hampton though.

All those guys make perfect sense.  But I have to give a tip of the hat to Peter Gardere.  He is the only QB from either Texas or Oklahoma to have beaten the other team four straight seasons.  In each of those four seasons OU was ranked and Texas wasn't.  Results count.

Quinn deserves some recognition. Led Texas to 2 straight playoff appearances. If he hadn't been injured and missed multiple games throughout the season. I think he could have been on the list

I like the list!  I would have Leonard Davis significantly higher though - a truly dominant player at a critical position

The chants by the OU fans at his final RRS for him to graduate 🤭
