1976 North Texas Vs. Texas (19) Football Game (Score 14-17 Texas)

[All About UNT]

So I was just going through the fan-boards of both teammates and conferences and I am seeing so much of a lack of regard for who North Texas has history with.

Obviously many of us know about UT and 1988 

 

But archived (below) are clips of the 1976 Texas (19) vs. North Texas State game that ended as a 14-17 loss by the good guys.  

I assume they have been posted here before but at the least I figured it need a refresh PLUS you can find the links to other Hayden Fry Era games here https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc272161/

Three things strike me watching the highlights from 1988.

1. That was a really bad Texas team and a damned scrappy North Texas squad. 
2. There were two non-TDs rewarded to UT and the refs didn’t call a couple of hits out of bounds.

3. Over thirty years later and we still can’t contain a QB in the pocket.

UT was lucky there wasn’t replays on scores back then. Two of those “called” TD’s would have been overturned.
