The First Texas Longhorns Football Team

[Vic Mackey 46937]

From 1893

[Topper13 3201]

First thing I saw was Radical Larry. I blame the Shag.

[Reese Bennett 3605]

And the first undefeated Longhorn team. 

Those guys look like a salty bunch.

[Lhorn 4886]

The OGs

[Nueces River Rat 5530]

We need to wear throwbacks to honor this team.    Coaches must participate.

The top 2 to the left and the bottom right look like they could really put the hurt on you.

[Roofle 266]

Is that Jordan Shipley?

[Armybrat 40754]

I part my hair differently now.

[Steamboat1874 4033]

Holy shit Spock was on our first team.

Time travel must be real.

[Katfid54 8593]

Can't wait to see them after an offseason with Yancy.

[SwanderedTalent 5761]

they could've beaten our 2016 team

[Armybrat 40754]

And our 1956 team.

[The Ace of Aces 5107]

Top right - what’s that he’s wearing over his jersey? Did he just run from basketball practices at the local orchard?

Concealed carry vest...... for his Colt 1851 Navy .36 Cal. cap & ball.

[lemonandaturd 4285]

Blake Gideon much?

[lemonandaturd 4285]

Did we kick the aggy ass?  

[NWAustinDude 2252]

I thank our head corch for killing himself recruiting Florida to build that first team.

Not the first year. We beat the Dallas Athletic Club and something called San Antonio Town twice each.

But in 1894 we beat A&M 38-0, as you might expect. 

[NeverMarryAStripper 21784]

Yes, but it was before they admitted women, before scholarship limits, it was an even year, and an odd century so it really shouldn’t count

[Huckleberry 32710]

The picture in the OP was 46 years before A&M's only actual national championship.

It has now been 80 years since that national championship.

This is another way of pointing out that A&M's only national championship was closer to Abraham Lincoln's initial election than it is to today.

[Pato del Muerto 52364]

Probably gave Galveston Ball a whooping.

I bet Paul and Ray gave William a lot of shit for how he spelled his last name.

[po elvis 2070]

so apparently the whole Mac thing at UT started in 1893.

[Fuck Tim Beck 3806]

R.U. Lee or R.U not Lee? 

[DigglerontheHoof 21080]

Damn, you think we have RB depth issues now...

One on the left is tough and ruthless.  One on the right is rough and toothless.
