Just 13 hours, 42 minutes until #10!!

Man, there sure have been a lot of good #11s over the years. Here's Keith Cash (WR, '87 to '00), catching the game-winner against OU on fourth down with about 2:00 to play. Perhaps the most famous 4th down play in UT's history??



The catch is around the 54:00 mark of this video:



Watching the last-second field goal at 1:06:10 is fun, too. He misses wide left every time!

Yes, J D Lasher ALWAYS misses that kick and goes to his knees!

Then ou fans everywhere are CRUSHED... I love it!!!

Just 13 hours, 42 minutes until #10!!

What is so special about #10? Was there a player that was pretty good that wore that number?

The good news is we are almost to single digit days until kickoff!

I like the cocky Lasher bobbing his head and holding up the #1 to the crowd before coming on the field for the kick. Then the miss and he craters on the field.

Sadist much?

Me, too.

Is there a more definitive angle showing whether that was a fumble at 1:04:15? Irrelevant, but I'm curious.

I know we shouldn't post pics of Sooners, but I think we can make an exception with this one of
Darrell Royal, OU All-American Quarterback, 1949.

D.J. and Huff saving the day against the porkers

Shameless self promotion.

I feel unclean posting a photo of a Sooner on this thread, but DKR is the exception to every rule.

I'm happy to report that I got positive feedback for posting DKR at #21, so you should be okay doing the same at #11. Apparently, this Board loves DKR more than it hates OU.

Shameless indeed, but we like it. Keep bringing the good photos!

I like Peter, but I hope I am missing the sarcasm in him being better than VY.

Ain't nobody better than VY, and we've had a lot of good ones!

Sarcasm? What would ever make you think that? Other than one national championship, two BCS bowl wins, and a near Heisman trophy (he was robbed!), VY has nothing on Peter the Great.
