Happy Birthday to the legendary Billy Vessels! Your dazzling runs at Oklahoma still echo through football history. Who could forget your incredible 1952 season, sprinting past defenders and snagging that Heisman Trophy? You made it look so easy—like outrunning linebackers was just another day in Norman.Sure, your NFL career with the Colts might have been brief—but hey, legends don't need long careers when their college highlights are timeless classics. Today we celebrate you: a true gridiron great whose legacy remains undefeated by time or tackles. Here's hoping this birthday is as memorable as those epic touchdowns!
