Congrats Murray, beat’s Jim Brown’s 1958 record with 7 consecutive games of 100 yrds+. Now go catch Eric Dickerson’s record. #RBU
7 consecutive games to start the season. Barry Sanders holds the record with most consecutive games of 100+ yards with 14 in 1997. Fantastic record, to be sure. Anytime you do something the great JB didn’t do, it’s a good thing!
Correct CKill. He still a ways to go for consecutive games
As a Sooner, I am proud of D Murray and his achievement. I wish him good luck and really hope he can finish the whole season and quiet the “injury prone” talk.
I noticed on the game last night that one of the announcers gave some very positive props to Corey Nelson.
Sundays, now more than in a very long time, should be a big recruiting tool for the coaches. OU has former players now contributing in the NFL at every position group (and most of them at a very high level, too).
Get it Casey!
You should mention Roy Finch in the CFL just for kicks. Already becoming a star, I think an NFL team should grab him
