Members of the Oklahoma football team were asked to share their favorite football memory, whether it was here at OU, in high school or even from their pee-wee days. Here are some of their responses.

"Probably in high school - my senior year - when we won state and went 15-0. The team really let everything go. We had some problems, but everyone set everything aside for the greater good of the team and it was just a beautiful thing to go out and win."

“Back in pee-wee football, when I was in fifth grade, I was a running back and I literally juked out a whole team.”

“I had a pick-six in the state championship game my senior year against Gerald Jones, who went on to play at Tennessee.  It was the first time we had been to state in 20+ years. We ended up losing the game, but that was a big moment for me.”


Michael Hunnicutt

“That's an easy answer for me, when I scored a touchdown against Oklahoma State last year in Bedlam.”

“My first high school memory is probably my first varsity football game. It was played in the Cotton Bowl against Duncanville. I went out there for my first start game and we got a win, which was really cool. The whole atmosphere of the Cotton Bowl, I don't know if I was committed to Oklahoma yet, but to know I would eventually be playing there again was a really cool thing. It was really cool to play there in high school and to experience that setting and get out there and a get a win.”
