Landry Jones' record-setting career as Oklahoma's quarterback comes to an end Friday when he leads the Sooners against Texas A&M in the Cotton Bowl. Jones will finish where he started - at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Four years after taking over for Sam Bradford in a loss to BYU, Jones has surpassed Bradford in OU's record book. He's the OU career leader in passing yards, completions, attempts and passing touchdowns and owns the three best single-game passing days in OU history.
