It’s time for an update on our Countdown to Kickoff! As of today, there are 36 days of the offseason remaining before the Oklahoma Sooners open the 2018 season against Florida Atlantic.
For today’s edition of the countdown series, I want to highlight two of the best players to don the No. 36 for the crimson & cream: 1969 Heisman Trophy winner Steve Owens and all-everything fullback Dimitri Flowers.
Starting with Steve Owens — the man was a straight-up load in the backfield. Not only did this tailback bring the thump, he could tote the rock for days.
