Texas wanted no part of LSU in the Cotton Bowl, having been shut out in their previous bowl game with LSU,


That was seven years earlier. Would you really be scared to play, say, Penn State because they beat us in a bowl game eight years ago?

Actually it was six years earlier. But LSU beat an undefeated Arkansas team just three years before that and that game combined with the earlier win over Texas definitely caught their eye. I've had a few Texas boosters tell me that much over the years.
