#21 Syracuse Orangemen at Oklahoma Sooners - 1997 - Football

[arenateam]

@xcuseMepleez DeMond was the reason you watched from 96-98'.

[xcuseMepleez]

I was four when this happened and when OU football became great again, people tried to forget the 90s, so i ignored it as well. I really only watched this video to see how McNabb fared against my favorite team. But Demond Parker was apparently a monster.

Boomer sooner



[lazerlazer]

WOW. Terrible play by play. They were so pro Oklahoma it was disgusting. Always call any sport neutrally!

[b1walker]

[b1walker]

YEs! I was at this game and rushed the field! BOOMER!

[lastcatamount]

[michaelantonio]

[statman16]

Quentin FREAKING Spotwood!!

[ErikS1975FreeState]

This was right before the Stoops era began at Oklahoma

[cedriclovesaaron]

Dmond was the only thing we had along w Cedric Jones.

[arenateam]

De"Mond was a great RB for OU - one of the best I think. One thing though, Cedric Jones played from 92 to 95. Was drafted #5 in the 96 NFL Draft. Parker played from 96-98 (redshirt 95')..

We did have good defensive players though during that time: Kelly Gregg, Travian Smith, Tyrell Peters, Broderick Simpson, Dale Allen.

[charlesricky]

does any one remember how hot it was that day what great memories even though we sucked

[piercematt]

Yes! I was at this game. Great game. sec 24 row 67 seats 13,14!!! Theirs only one Oklahoma!

[StrmChazr]

This was probably the last time the fans rushed the field.

[arenateam]

OU fans rushed the field against Nebraska in 2000.

[arenateam]

I would have loved to have seen Demond Parker alongside Josh Heupel in 1999. I think with Parker, we would have closed the door on Notre Dame, Texas, & Ole Miss. (all close losses). Could have won 10 games with him.

[ThunderSooner2835]

Then again, we were alright without him in 2000.

[agoo7581]

Yeah, but it was still unfair to him that he had to be on all of those not-so-good OU teams.

[ThunderSooner2835]

Yeah, but unfortunately, life's not fair.

[soonerscott2007]

I remember working on my car this day & listening to the game on the radio. If I remember right McNabb couldn't handle the heat and was throwing up on the field.

[matthewayne]

He vomitted all right, but was not te heat. it was NOT hot that day. Temps in the 70s during the game. He got cranked in the helmet on the very previous play

[agent00blake]

@matthewayne It was a 90 degree high that day in Norman.

source: I googled it

[agoo7581]

Lol, he did that every game.
