Not a Texas fan...but a huge fan (and historian) of College Football. That 1969 team was one of the all time great teams. Very deep and talented.
Darrell Royal never had a losing season as a head coach for his entire career. They broke the mold when they made him.
Hook Em Horns !
Best Longhorns team ever!
I've been watching football for 63 years now and have to say I have never seen two bolder plays than the Streeter to Speyrer 43-yard bomb on 4th down and the decision to go for 2 after their first TD against Arkansas in the '69 Game of the Century. The pass, of course, was the bolder of the two. It is not as if a young Tom Brady was playing for Texas. They were a run-oriented Wish Bone team that might pass 8 or 9 times a game. Yet, when its 4th and 4 in their own end of the field, Streeter convinces Coach Royal to let him throw a deep pass. If Al Michaels was broadcasting that game, he would have said, "What in the world...."
and he caught the ball in coverage also. amazing play
Jim Bertelson was from Hudson WI
James Street was underrated as a passer, and Tom Campbell was Johnny on the spot for the defense. My takeaways
Coming up on the 50 year anniversary. Well a year away. 😁 🤘🏾
Outstanding
The Horns hooked everyone in 1969!
Excellent!
At 5:16. Looks like the 4th and 3 against Notre Dame in the 1970 Cotton Bowl on the third Texas drive, late in the fourth quarter! See 27:40!
Looks like the same play all right.
Dig the texas flavored soundtrack
Is that Walter Cronkite narrating?
No, not Cronkite. Sounds like one of his protégés, Austin newsman Neal Spelce. He was the anchor at KTBC, the station that produced the Darrell Royal Show and often produced films for the football banquet, etc. Nowadays the media would all be produced in house.
The great Earl Campbell would play for them later!
Notre dame's first bowl game in 35yrs
Was there a reason Billy Dale didn't play vs Arkansas? Also whatever happened to Eddie Phillips ?
Eddie phillips quarterbacked them next Fall to an undefeated regular season, but they lost to Notre Dame in the Cotton Bowl. Don't know about Billy Dale in the Arkansas game.
No , 1969. Billy Dale did not play in the Big Shootout. He said in the documentary that he didn't know why he didn't play. He scored the winning TD in the Cotton Bowl vs ND though.
Dale was second string behind Koy, who was a captain. He played in the Cotton Bowl because Koy got a concussion. Phillips was also second string in 1969.
