It is indeed IMPORTANT, certainly to the fans, for a team to win its bowl game.

January 1, 1963 – Orange Bowl Stadium

JFK Watches ‘Bama’s Show
President John F. Kennedy was one of 73,380 fans to witness Alabama linebacker Lee Roy Jordan single-handedly turn back Oklahoma, 17-0.

Jordan, who met Kennedy during the coin toss, recorded 31 tackles as a defensive battle took shape right from the start. The tough Alabama defense had allowed only 39 points all season and had not been scored upon twice in any game.

After ‘Bama had taken a 7-0 lead on a 25-yard pass from sophomore Joe Namath to Richard Williams, Oklahoma botched its best scoring opportunity. The Sooners lost a fumble on the Alabama 7-yard line, after a 56-yard Ron Fletcher-to-Allen Bumgardner pass led them down the field.

In the second quarter a 15-yard Cotton Clark run stretched the 'Bama lead to 14-0, and the Tide extended that to 17-0 on Tim Davis' 19-yard FG.

Both teams compiled 260 yards of total offense, but Oklahoma was unable to get into the end zone. Despite his fumble, Grisham earned 107 tough yards on the ground for the Sooners.

Thanks for the post.

The first Stoops-Brown massacre in 2000 is the most fun OU game I have ever seen. Who could have imagined that there would be 3 more Stoops-Brown massacres before Mack was finally forced out.

The last 2 games have been two of the most satisfying games for me as a sooner fan.

You might need to check with the doctor for heart pressure as soon as you can. Jumping, yelling, and holding breath and breast do affect on the aging heart Sir.

Definitely the best two game "fun/feel good" run ever.

[rock on sooner]

I vaguely remember the '54 game and the only ones I dint see
was when I was overseas. Indeed, there's only one Sooners!
Been Sooners lover since '52...STILL ticked at Dick Lynch and the
sweep around the right side!

Last 2 Sooner Natl Champs were best for me. Orange Bowls against Florida State and Penn State.

Sooner were heavy underdogs to the Seminoles just like against Bama and they shocked the country.

Lots of upsets required in '86 culminated with Miami getting crushed and then the Sooners taking care of business against Penn St
