“Oklahoma Football Vault: The Oklahoma Football Story,” by Kenny Mossman. Whitman Publishing, 2018

If you are a collector of Oklahoma football memorabilia or a connoisseur of Sooner football history, you will find hours of pleasure with this information-packed collection of OU gridiron history.

From the famous Cottonwood Creek touchdown in the inaugural football game between the University of Oklahoma and what was then Oklahoma A&M to the record-setting 47 straight victories to the Lincoln Riley era, this nicely packaged volume covers the complete Oklahoma football history up through the 2017 season.

Kenny Mossman, OU’s senior associate athletic director for external operations, has put together a collection of Sooner football stories that also includes vintage photographs, artwork reproductions of old game programs and tickets and other memorabilia drawn from the OU campus archives.
