contrary to stats shown during Saturday's game he is NOT yet one of OU's all-time tackle leaders for a season.The TOP 10:
10) Rod Shoate - 145
9) JackieShipp - 147
8) George Cumby - 154
7) Rod Shoate - 155
6) Darryl Hunt - 157
5) Darryl Hunt - 159
4) George Cumby - -160
3) Steve Aycock - 175
2) Darryl Hunt - 177
1) Jackie Shipp - 189
I don't remember the tackle totals listed on the graphics during the game but I recall thinking they have to be talking about Stoops era only.I think Curtis has around 130 tackles for the year so with 2 games left he should crack the Top 10.
For those curious about the lower tackle numbers of OU's recent leading tacklers ,bear this in mind,ALL 10 of these players are LBs who played in the Okie 5-2 alignment which was largely predicated on the 2 linebackers making the majority of tackles.I wonder if McCoy,Granger and co. realize just how BAD Shipp was in his playing days.
