Unfortunately Texas lost this game to Texas Tech. 

Regardless, a cool piece of Texas history for you all!

The road to the SWC championship runs through Lubbock. They’re still waiting to see who’s on the road and when anyone is coming…but it’s in Lubbock lol

11:00 o'clock games are an abomination. I like night games.

68 years from now OTF will be posting about the first drone show in DKR!

A 31-10 win against Wyoming. Tech can’t take that from us!

@PaulieD took his grandkids to that game!

This was almost a generation AFTER aggy won its last national championship.

Also, was this picture taken from someone’s backyard? That fence is a bit out of place.
