The other article was talking about Hunter and Bryant being All-Americans, but there is no reason why Pettigrew could not make it a trio of Cowboys. That would be quite an accomplishment.

Oklahoma is a college football state! Proud of both nominees, but especially of my Cowboys star . . . Brandon Pettigrew! Just like Billy Bajema before him, can't wait to watch him on Sundays.
