In fact, in today's game, I believe that play would have whistled dead before he made that throw.
Other observations in these videos:
- The punting was bad, particularly in the 1st half. Real bad. By both teams. I'm talking Junior High school bad.
- Terry Bradshaw was not perfect. He made several really bad throws in this game.
- Lots of dropped passes, especially a lot of dropped potential INT's by both teams.
- Bradshaw was not afraid to run, and he did so quite often. I never saw a slide.
- Bradshaw made an outstanding run for Tech's 5th TD (9:26 of the part 3 video).
- With Tech holding a 33-13 lead late in the 4th Qtr, Bradshaw is eventually replaced by a QB wearing #27. Does anyone know who this is?
- For some reason (#27 may have been hurt), Bradshaw comes back into the game (at 3:28 of the 4th video) and promptly throws an INT.
- #27 comes back into the game at QB on the very next series, the last of the game.
- The Band of Pride went out onto the field and celebrated with the players after the final whistle.
Keep in mind it was 12 degrees below freezing at kickoff. Boxscore lists weather as "20 degrees, cold, snowy, windy."
#27 was Ronnie Wiggins from West Monroe. He's listed as a DB-QB on the roster.

He didn’t slide, but wasn’t he a known wife-beater?

In Branson, Missouri for the weekend. Had someone stop me to ask if we were from Shreveport. I told him Ruston. And he said, “saw the Lah Tech on your hat and figured so.”

Dixonfor6,
I have been around Tech football for 44 years, and I have never heard what you just stated. I would be absolutely certain before I repeated something like that.

I thought the same thing and decided if it was fake news.

Are you thinking about Pat Collins? I have never heard this about TB.

Re: We got El A Tech'd again.
Back to the original topic, everything I've heard here in DFW so far has been "lah" Tech. I heard more than one show on more than one radio station talking about SMU hiring Dykes and him coaching against his old team and it was all "lah Tech." I don't love it, but it's something we've embraced and it's better than the title of this thread.
Re: We got El A Tech'd again.
We could solve the problem by simply changing our name to "Louisiana." :laugh::laugh:
