OU Football Tradition | 1950 National Champions

Oklahoma's initial national championship, the first of three under legendary head coach Bud Wilkinson, set the football program on a course that regularly meets with high-level success.
 
Consensus All-Americans Leon Heath and Jim Weatherall paved the way and got assistance from a first-year player, Billy Vessels, who scored 15 touchdowns that season. Two seasons later, Vessels captured OU's first Heisman Trophy.
 
Wilkinson's first title team featured homegrown talent (he limited his recruiting to a tight radius of the campus), yet achieved on a level that was recognized from coast to coast.
