Dennis Partee avenges UT's sheer luck of John Lagrone's block/deflect of
UT field goal which directed a wide shot to make it good for a 12 -10 Longhorn lead.

That picture of LaGrone on the cover of Texas Football - you knew he was a ballplayer.

The mid-sixties were a special time for SMU football and the students, like myself, who enjoyed our success playing in the Cotton Bowl. Turnout was good.

John was and is a 'class act'!

Mr. Pony: "Those were some cool SMU unis."


That's an understatement!!! The best outside of the 30's thru the early 50's!

More than I've changed pairs of underwear!!

Unfortunately, SMU threw so many of our great traditions out the door long ago!!!

Not to fear, we've kept losing around for over twenty years now.

In those days (mid-sixties), the BLVD consisted of fraternities renting Dallas transit and school buses from the campus to Fair Park, with kegs of beer and parked near the Cotton Bowl. We all went to the games fairly timely, but often leaving some of our pledges passed out in the bus.
