Win-win. If AD wins, Boomer Sooner. If Barry wins, Madden curse will probably result in something awful for him (like an 0-12 Poke football season, hmm???)
Adrian is a credit to the Sooners still --- he was very gracious in defeat, didn't pout like Vince Young losing the Heisman or even act sad. He was clearly happy for Barry (probably because he knows he's a shoo-in for the cover once he gets the rushing record). Besides... Barry is a Lion and a Poke. If they can't win a video game cover contest, what can they win? Hardly anything :stunned:
I'm a big Sanders fan but he didn't have a star on his team to compete with for the Heisman like AD did. Oh wait, he DID, and he didn't do **** in Stillwater until Thurman left.
Thurman was all-american & all pro. sanders played a lot when he was injured. also ran back kicks. barry had best year of any college rb, bar none. over 2800 yds in 12 games.
Not to sidetrack an Aggy thread, but 4chan has had some funny "Touchdown Thurman Thomas" works over the years. Unless you get highly offended at bad words and offensive things, here's one such thread: NSFW I cannot emphasize enough how NOT SFW that thread is.
