A Stack of Sooners on the Heisman Podium
Seven. Yes, you read that right. Seven phenomenal Oklahoma Sooners have brought home the prestigious Heisman Trophy. That ties them for the most Heismans of any program in college football history, sharing the top spot with the likes of Notre Dame, Ohio State, and that team down south (you know the one, with the crimson and white).
These Sooner legends aren't just numbers on a list, though. They're players who have etched their names in college football lore with their dazzling performances. We're talking running backs like Billy Vessels, the "Jet" who could outrun a cheetah, and Billy Sims, the "Oklahoma Drill" himself, who juked defenders out of their cleats. We've got quarterbacks like Baker Mayfield, whose brash attitude and pinpoint throws led the Sooners to a national title.
Let's not forget Kyler Murray, the dual-threat dynamo who could scramble for a first down or launch a laser downfield with equal ease. These are just a few of the Oklahoma greats who have brought Heisman glory to Norman.
QuickTip: Skim the intro, then dive deeper.
