Description
Arkansas and Texas, two proud universities with strong football programs and rabid fan bases, collided on a chilly day in December, 1969. The Big Shootout it was called. In 60 minutes of competition settled a conference title, plus a national championship and sparked coffee chop debates for years.
One team came away from the nationally televised event with more points, and the immediate spoils of victory. But those where just so many bulbs on the Razorback Stadium scoreboard. They say nothing for the human element before, during and after the contest.
In fact, as you will learn in these pages. the final gun of The Big Shootout was not final at all. It did not signal the end. It was the beginning.
This book was written by author Mark S. McDonald and illustrated by Bill DeOre.
