1 – Torrance Marshall – 2000 – vs. Texas A&M
Before he “got his boy’s trophy back”, Marshall saved the Sooners title hopes with this pick-six on Kyle Field.
The Sooners run was appearing to look like it was finally coming to an end. The Aggies had played a clean, possession heavy football game and looked prime to drive the field and seal the victory with a two-score lead. That was until Torrance Marshall decided to dust off the ol’ Sooner Magic and take one back to the house. The Sooners went on to win the game 35-31 and move to 9-0 on the eventual National Championship season.
Thanks again Mr. Marshall.
