DALLAS (AP) -- Former Oklahoma A&M football star Bob Fenimore is selected for induction into the Cotton Bowl Hall of Fame.

Fenimore, who played in the 1940s for what is now Oklahoma State, led the Cowboys to a 34-to-0 win over Texas Christian in the 1945 Cotton Bowl. In that game, he passed for 137 yards and scored two touchdowns.

Fenimore was the first two-time All-America player in OSU history.

Fenimore is one of seven people in this year's induction class. Other inductees this year include former USC receiver Keyshawn Johnson, former Texas A&M linebacker Dat Nguyen, former Notre Dame coach Ara Parseghian and former Texas offensive lineman Jerry Sizemore.

The class will be officially inducted in April.
