22 DAYS🤘

 

 

Was at that game with my uncle in the end zone. Nunez's catches were incredible. Also fun fact, that was the first year that they colored the end zones orange and crimson, and it was also the last year the end zones had the words Cotton Bowl. 2000 is the first year they had Texas and Oklahoma written on them.

Scooter Monzingo, punter

How important is a punter to the success of a team? Well, maybe UT isn't the place to examine the indispensable nature of standout punting.  The two lowest punting averages over a sixty-year span came in national championship seasons.  The wishbone offense was short-circuiting scoreboards in 1969, so Scooter Monzingo was called on to punt only 34 times, for a modest 34.7 yards per attempt.

“Everybody in Austin was a punter after our first game,” said Scooter Monzingo of the Texas Longhorns. “Nearly everyone I saw last week had some suggestions for me.” Monzingo, a senior from Del Rio, averaged just 31.8 yards on six punts against California. But against Texas Tech he increased his average by 11 yards and gave the ball to the Red Raiders on their nine-(twice), 13- and 12-yard lines. The tip that made the difference came from Assistant Coach Willie Zapalac. “I had been holding the front end of the ball up a little too high,” Monzingo said. “This week I held it down more and got under it.”
