I had recently watched Friday Night Lights on cable, and that led me to do a little research on the 88 Odessa team. While doing this, I found a web-site for Odessa's first state championship season 1965. This is their 40th anniversary for that championship year, which started it all for them.

I had the privilege of watching that first championship team, although I wasn't pulling for them at the time. They played their semi-final game against Texarkana (the team I was pulling for) at Amon Carter Stadium.

Here is a trivia question for us old-timers. What future University of Texas stars played in that 1965 play-off game?
