Favorite Texas Football Picture

What Srr said. It epitomized Texas defensive football under Darrell Royal and is what Dick Tomey, DE coach, espouses in terms of tenaciously protecting your goal line.

Slick/Srr,
I will have to send that to my father-in-law, who graduated from AR in 69. He was at the 69 game and had seats about 4 rows up from where Peschel caught the pass. He still talks about all those games still and when he describes the 69 game it sounds like the images are crystal clear in his brain, right down to every detail about the entire game.
 
While we're on the subject of goal-line stands, anyone got Stonie Clark making the stop on the 1-foot line in our 17-10 win over the okies.
 
Srr, my dad lived in Prather in 1937 and my son lived in Prather in 1996. I lived in Brackenridge for one semester in 1965.

I have to go with the picture of Treadwell and Culpepper in the 1962 Arkansas game. Best football game I ever attended.
 
Hornian:

That catch that Sloan made against Tech was amazing. I was in the North end zone a 10-20 rows up. It was one of the best catches I have ever seen.
 
I don't have a copy of the picture, but any of you older guys might remember the pic of Duke Carlisle intercepting a Baylor pass from Qback Don Truell (sp?), to Lawrence Elkins (I believe), in the endzone in the 1963 Texas-Baylor game to save the victory. If you don't remember, Truell and Elkins I believe were all-americans, and Baylor had driven down the field with Texas nurturing a mere 3-4 point lead, when Truell threw a pass in the corner of the endzone to Elkins, when in the picture you see Carlisle jumping with arm outstretched barely pulling the ball down, just before it was about to land in Elkin's hands. Saved the victory and a great moment in Longhorn history.
