Kings for a day Owls remember 50 years later

It was not however an entirely happy homecoming for the Bear. Every time I look out the window Bryant growled I think of that damned football game. So vivid were memories of the game in question that no elaboration was required. It was played Nov. before the largest crowd to see a football game in Texas between Bryant s Aggies ranked No. in the nation and winners of consecutive games and Jess Neely s Rice Owls who emerged a victor. Had the Aggies prevailed they likely would be celebrating the th anniversary of a national championship. The last outright title In his heyday it was said November belongs to Neely. in the nation before a loss to Navy in the Cotton Bowl. Never again save the fluke five way tie for the title would Rice win a SWC championship. And never again to this day have the Aggies reigned as the No. ranked team in the land. team in the nation. Instead I got a chance to beat the Aggies when they were No. in the nation which was a neat thi! ng. Hill s first quarter interception at the Rice yard line launched the Owls lone scoring drive. The Aggies had the ball on the Rice yard line as time expired. The Aggies awoke on the morning of Nov. If the story hadn t appeared they would have played an entirely different game. Bryant said It s jerks like you that cost me the national championship and slammed down the phone. Word of Bryant s departure had a great effect on the team Crow said. On that day Rice was the better team. I don t think they would have beaten us the following day or the day before. But on that day they were the better team. After a day of upsets also on Nov. The Cardinals also had the second overall pick and selected Crow. The two were teammates for three years before Hill was dealt to the Philadelphia Eagles in . Life after football J. Whitmire who helped organize today s reunion said he received NFL offers but opted for a career in engineering. Other players he said went into teach! ing medicine or financial services. Organizers expect more than forme r players to attend today s game.
