Leon Heath starts Sugar Bowl rout

Jan. 2, 1950: No. 2 Oklahoma entered the 1950 Sugar Bowl at 9-0, and former LSU player Piggy Barnes must have been worried about his Tigers, who entered at 8-1 and ranked No. 10. Barnes was caught spying on Oklahoma's practices with a telescope and camera, but it didn't work well. Leon Heath broke a scoreless tie in the second quarter with an 86-yard run and added a 34-yard run later in the quarter to send the Sooners to a 35-0 win and take home MVP honors.

Leon "Mule Train" Heath. Classic photo in former Norman Transcript Sports Editor Jim Weeks' book "The Sooners" of OKC Dentist Dr. C. B. McDonald, "an ardent OU fan," helping the police arrest LSU spy Piggy Barnes. The good doctor, sporting Stetson, suit, and tie, is winding up to deliver a haymaker to the hulking Barnes. Great!

That spanking of LSU was in the Sugar Bowl. How about a rematch this year in NO to exorcise our BCS Championship and SEC demons? It might be the all time signature Oklahoma Football victory.
