SignUp Now!Hopefully Baxter’s injury isn’t serious. He’s had a rough time staying healthy early in his career. There is a lot of talent in that room but not much experience.
Good point. If it ends up that he is out for a while how does Texas adjust? Put a TE as an H back in the backfield or the next best RB that can pick up blitzers?And it would show up in pass protection, IMO. Yeah, hope he's just dinged a little.
Nice ones, I was at the last 3.#1 -1969 - James Street pass to Randy Peschel for 44 yards against Arkansas in the Game of the Century.
Others:
Ernie Koy ran 79 yards for a touchdown against Alabama in the 1965 Orange Bowl.
1963 - QB Duke Carlisle 1-yard QB sneak against A$M, with 1:19 left in the game, to beat Aggie 15-13. The TD capped a rally from 13-3 to win. This propeled Texas to a national championship.
1977- Earl Campbell's 60 yard screen pass touchdown against a$m. Earl had 222 yards and four TDs against the Aggies. This helped him clinch the Heisman Trophy.
1998 - Ricky Williams breaking the Tony Dorset's record on a 60-yard TD run against a$m, where he broke three tackles.
1990 - Peter Gardere TD 16 yard pass to Keith Cash on 4th down vs OU to win game.
1994 - Stonie Clark stopped OU running back James Allen a yard short of paydirt with 43 seconds to play to save the win.
One more that doesn't get a lot of fan fare: Tommy Nobis stopping Joe Namath at the goal line in 1965 Orange Bowl. It was spectacular!

That must have been awesome to see those live.Nice ones, I was at the last 3.
Robert Brewer scoring on a QB draw vs Bama in the 80 (?) Cotton Bowl was nice! James Brown's 4th down pass to D Lewis in the first Big XII against the Corn was thrilling!
I had the opportunity to talk to Phil about that kick when he spoke at our local FCA banquet. I helped with the silent auction stuff so I was able to get in early, take photo with him and talk. That kick was also into a 20 mph wind.Dawson's 50 yard FG into the win vs Virginia and beating ou by scoring on 4th & 7 (Peter the Great to Walker or Cash if I remember correctly) late in the game.
Yea, I noticed I left the "d" of the word wind in my post.I had the opportunity to talk to Phil about that kick when he spoke at our local FCA banquet. I helped with the silent auction stuff so I was able to get in early, take photo with him and talk. That kick was also into a 20 mph wind.
