Adrian Peterson Photo Shoot | Adrian Peterson Bio
Peterson exploded onto the national scene as a true freshman for the Sooner football team in 2004. The Palestine, Texas, native set an OU and NCAA freshman rushing record with 1,925 yards and finished second in the Heisman Trophy voting -- the highest finish ever for a freshman.
Earlier in the season, Peterson tied an NCAA mark by reaching 1,000 yards in his seventh career game. Florida's Emmitt Smith established the record in 1987 and San Diego State's Marshall Faulk matched it in 1991.
Peterson eclipsed the century mark in rushing yards in 11 of Oklahoma's 13 games in 2004.
