Every OU fan has a go-to shirt for game day—but if you really want to turn heads in Norman or Dallas, it’s all about the OU Football jersey flex. Here are nine OU football jerseys that bring the swagger, the nostalgia, or the chaos—because what you wear is part of how you tailgate.
1. Brian Bosworth – #44 (LB, 1984–86)
The Boz is the ultimate tailgate statement piece, and among the most popular all time OU football jerseys. Mohawk optional. Chaos guaranteed. Vintage #44 jerseys are loud, rowdy, and instantly recognizable.
2. Adrian Peterson – #28 (RB, 2004–06)
One of the greatest running backs in college football history. A #28 jersey is iconic, classic, and still gets nods from every Sooner fan within 50 yards.
3. Baker Mayfield – #6 (QB, 2015–17)
The walk-on turned Heisman winner who planted the flag in Columbus. Rocking Baker’s #6 is equal parts swagger and legend. It screams “I talk trash, but I back it up.”
4. Roy Williams – #38 (DB, 1999–2001)
Want to rep the guy who broke Texas’s soul in 2001? The Superman leap over Chris Simms is still one of the greatest OU plays ever. The #38 jersey will bring back a lot of fond memories for OU fans.
5. CeeDee Lamb – #2 (WR, 2017–19)
Stylish, explosive, and undeniably fun to watch. A CeeDee jersey pairs well with modern swagger—plus, he is one of the most popular current players in the NFL.
6. Sam Bradford – #14 (QB, 2007–09)
Heisman winner. 50-touchdown season. Sooner legend. A Bradford jersey is a smart throwback—less flashy, but still iconic.
7. Tommie Harris – #97 (DT, 2001–03)
You wanna flex some lineman love? This All-American was the anchor of some nasty early-2000s defenses. A #97 jersey stands out because no one else is wearing it—but they should be.
8. Jalen Hurts – #1 (QB, 2019)
One-and-done, but unforgettable. OU Hurts jerseys are slick, rare, and great for fans who appreciate both Bama and Sooner grit. Bonus: he's now one of the NFL’s most respected leaders and just won the Super Bowl.
9. Kyler Murray – #1 (QB, 2017–18)
Heisman winner and two-sport athlete. Kyler’s OU jersey is sleek and modern, with just enough flair to match his style of play. Great choice if you want to stand out without going full throwback.

Pair it with a flag — nothing hits harder than a great jersey + a flying OU flag.
