Landry Jones

Fans’ memory of Jones will be set by Bedlam

by

Landry Jones will play his last game at Owen Field on Saturday.

He will end the day as Oklahoma’s most prolific passer.

Despite that, it’s no secret that Jones may be the most under-appreciated. At least by fans.

The Notre Dame game will be at 7 pm, with ESPN’s College Gameday coming from the OU campus.

It will be the first visit to Norman for the Fighting Irish since 1966.

Oklahoma’s game against Kansas was highlighted by Landry Jones throwing for 291 yards and three touchdowns and the Sooner kicking game, which accounted for a kickoff return and a punt return for touchdowns in the same game for the first time in school history.

Justin Brown made up for a lost fumble on his previous punt return by running his next chance back 90 yards and diving at the pylon for the score.
