Bud Wilkinson
Ever try to argue that Bud Wilkinson isn't one of the greatest college football coaches? Good luck. With his three national championships and a win streak that feels longer than a Monday, the man turned college football into a chess match where he was always five moves ahead. Ever meet a Wilkinson fan? They've got stats and game plays tattooed on their brain. Debating football with them is like trying to convince a cat it’s a dog—futile and a bit hilarious.
