Sportshots > Craig Hall  > OU football > OU vs. Iowa 9-15-79
These are photographs taken by my father, Gene Hall, during Iowa's football game at Oklahoma on 9-15-79. The Sooners won the game, 21-6, overcoming several turnovers to pull away in the second half over the Hawkeyes, which had a promising freshman defensive back named Bobby Stoops on the team.

Craig Hall > This is Bob Stoops (#41 in white) tackling, or trying to tackle, Billy Sims of OU.
Craig Hall > In this shot, Billy Sims cuts upfield as Bob Stoops (#41) leaps over an OU blocker. Of the three pictures of Stoops, this is the best. On the ground for OU was fullback Barry Joyner (#42). I'm not sure who is blocking Stoops but it was probably tight end Forrest Valora.
