Yeah, very different times. The world was at war. If you enhance that photo of the fans at the CB on the visitors / Texas side there are a LOT of fans wearing ARMY uniforms and a handful of NAVY uniforms. Cannot make out any Marines and the Air Force would have had uniforms similar to ARMY.
America loved football, but was far more focused on the war and much less on sports or pastimes in 1943. The outcome of the war was far from certain...
