We are 10 days away from the Longhorns squaring off against Ohio State for the season opener. Normally this is where I would ask who your favorite number xx is, but with today being 10…

Let’s give Peter Gardere some love.  4-0 against ou. 
 

 

My first Texas jersey was #10 for James Saxton. 

Vince Young days away. We're getting close

He probably would’ve been the school’s first Heisman winner if not for the infamous TCU game.

I met Buddy Iles in 1970 and relived that awful game. 🤘🏻

It’s been said over the years that it was the toughest loss Coach Royal ever suffered as a head coach.

One more note on Jimmy Saxton is he held the school record for single-season yards per rushing attempt with 7.9 in 1961 until Bijan Robinson broke it in 2020. That was one of those Texas records I never thought I’d see broken.

D.D. Lewis gets an honorable mention today.
