    WorsterMan SEC here we come!!

    Thanks. A short game and sideline video. Makes us UT football scholars hungry for so much more in the early DKR days.

    So AC, how did you procure this? :smile1:

    Hey, the guy twirler shown at halftime....is that the famous alumni band guy who throws it just about out of the stadium then almost always catches it?? Haven't seen him in a few years though. I so that's pretty awesome!!

    Oh and was it my imagination or did Bevo look like a midget version?!?

    I really wish the LHN would get into finding and playing more old films like this.
    Have some of the older guys do some commentary. I think it would be very popular.

    Also the chearleader doing cartwheels in a poodle skirt was somewhat impressive

    Actually, Bevo was the same; we just used to have giants in the Texas Silver Spurs.

    Good one VYFan! My brother (Silver Spur Alumn) will laugh at that. Guessing that was a first year Bevo in 57’. Probably a yearling bull.

    According to this and a couple other sites, this Bevo was in his 3rd season at the time of the OU game. Later sent out to pasture that season after charging the Rice bench.
