1963 Cotton Bowl Question
Posted on 7/17/18 at 1:08 pm

Was the LSU touchdown that was called back by the officials a legitimate call?
(If allowed to stand LSU would have defeated #2 Texas who came into the 63 Cotton Bowl a heavy favorite and undefeated 20-0)

This make no sense. LSU won 13-0 over UT in the 1963 Cotton Bowl and finished 7/8 in the final polls. UT finished 4th that year.

actually the touchdown that was negated resulted in a made field goal. Had Amedee's pass to Truax not been called off for an ineligible receiver LSU would have won 17-0.

I've been a Cotton Bowl season ticket holder for over 40 years. How many have you attended? No, I wasn't at the 1963 game (I was only 3 yrs old), but I've seen it on tape.
Really easy to search this information: 1963 Cotton Bowl Classic
Also, in 1962 (this was the 1962 season, since the 1963 Cotton Bowl was played on January 1, 1963, after the 1962 football season), the final AP and Coaches polls were released on December 9, 1962 before the bowl games, which was the common way it was done back then. At that time, UT was 4th in both polls.
Who is crazy? You must be in a lot of pain since it is so obvious.

I guess I have to do everything for you.
FACT - UT was #4 in 1962 (Why couldn't you look it up?).
FACT - USC was undefeated, ranked #1 and won the National Championship in 1962 (the same season as the 1963 Cotton Bowl).
FACT - Wisconsin was 8-1 and finished 2nd in both polls (you may recall that Wisconsin lost its bowl game just like UT, but it didn't matter since the final polls were already published before the bowl games).
FACT - Ole Miss was undefeated at 9-0 finished 3rd in both polls.
FACT - UT was 9-0-1 and finished 4th in both polls.
Actually, UT was #2 preseason and climbed to #1 in Week 4 and remained there for Week 5, but dropped to #5 in Week 6 (behind LSU) when Rice tied UT 14-14 on October 27, 1962.
I can only recite the facts, not speculation.
I guess you are just trying to rewrite history - must be an interesting subculture you belong to.
Partly in your defense, in 1963, UT went undefeated and won the national championship and played in the 1964 Cotton Bowl against Navy and Roger Staubach. I think you have your years mixed up, which happens to a lot of people. I am not trying to dig you or mess with you. UT was undefeated and untied in 1963.

First of all it is nothing to laugh about.
Second of all my father attended that 1963 Cotton Bowl and brought me back a pennant which is worth money these days.
Third of all the UPI polls were hideous and biased in those years so much so Paul Bear Bryant was left out of the 1966 UPI national championship. (Stovall was hosed at the Heisman too)
To suggest Texas was in anyway a less powerful opponent is a indication that I oughta bounce your arse cause you don't know jack!
Of course you are free to disagree. Only a boy refers to those polls from those years in writing. It is HORSE DUNG.
