When I woke up this morning, the realization dawned on me that I can now count on one hand how many days there are until the Oklahoma Sooners kick off the 2018 season. With only five days left to go in our Countdown to Kickoff, I want to take this opportunity to look back one of the greatest winners the game has ever seen. I’m talking about two-time national championship-winning quarterback Steve Davis.
Born in Louisiana, a young Steve Davis moved to and was raised in Sallisaw, OK. In 1973, Barry Switzer was entering his first season as the head coach of Oklahoma, and he couldn’t have asked for a better QB to kick start that tenure.
