Oklahoma Memorial Stadium is one of America's most recognized college football cathedrals.

Memorial Stadium's rich heritage has not hindered its evolution, a never-ending growth fueled by the football program's overwhelming popularity.

Season Preview:
Youth could limit Oklahoma's ability to defend the South Division title it claimed last season after Texas suffered a late-season meltdown in the Big 12. Nonetheless, the Sooners can never be counted out. It always seems Bob Stoops and his staff get as much improvement out of their teams as the season progresses as any in the conference. If you figure on getting the Sooners, get them early. Although Stoops seems certain the Sooners will rotate a variety of backs come fall, a potential eye-popping replacement for Adrian Peterson does exist. DeMarco Murray, a redshirt freshman, averaged 11.3 yards per carry in the Sooners' three spring scrimmages and appears to be a potential game-breaker. If Oklahoma adequately sorts out the battle at quarterback, the offense should be multi-dimensional. Building a nasty presence along the edge with a pass rush is the most pressing concern for Oklahoma defensively, though the Sooners also lost LB Rufus Alexander after he was named the Big 12 defensive player of the year. OU should still be solid in the back end, though the secondary could be tested if opposing quarterbacks have too much time or blitzes are required to create pressure. The Sooners are in good shape with Garrett Hartley, a senior who doesn't possess the strongest leg but is accurate. Harley missed just one of 18 field-goal attempts last season as a finalist for the Groza Award. Oklahoma also ranked first in the Big 12 in kickoff coverage, which will be even more important with teams now kicking off from the 30.
