One win (if we’re calling it that?) on the content side of things during this pandemic has been that I’ve been diving into the history books more than I normally would. There’s more time, and it’s more necessary if we’re going to keep churning out interesting things.
One thing I’ve been wanting to do is walk back through all of Barry Sanders’ games from the 1988 season and write about them individually. That’s what this series is about. Old articles, quotes, stats and tidbits you may have missed or didn’t know about.
Game 5: at Nebreaks (October 15, 1988)
Oklahoma State experienced its first loss of the 1988 season, even though Barry put up 189 yards and another four TDs in Lincoln.
