DALLAS -- Two games into the 1968 season the Longhorns, in search of an offensive spark after suffering a loss and a tie, made a switch at quarterback. In came James Street, who guided Texas to eight straight wins, a No. 5 national ranking and a matchup with No. 8 Tennessee in the 1969 Cotton Bowl.

Against the Vols, Street directed the Texas attack with sheer precision, helping the Longhorns amass 513 total yards in a 36-13 pasting.

Street and the UT offense were ruthless, jumping all over Tennessee to the tune of a 28-0 halftime lead. Known for its dominating rushing game, Texas unloaded a full arsenal upon the Volunteers. Street and Cotton Speyrer hooked up for two of the Cotton Bowl’s longest scoring plays ever; a 78-yard bomb in the opening quarter and a 79-yarder late in the third.

As if the aerial show wasn’t enough, the Tennessee defense frantically looked for ways to plug up the leaks that allowed UT’s stable of running backs to storm for 279 yards, including 85 yards from Steve Worster and 82 from Chris Gilbert.

Worster started the scoring avalanche with a 14-yard burst midway through the first quarter. Following Street’s long score to Speyrer, Ted Koy opened the second quarter with a nine-yard score and Texas led 21-0.

Gilbert added the fourth touchdown just before the half, taking a Street pitchout five yards for the score and putting the game out of reach.

Speyrer and Street shared the game’s MVP honors with Texas defensive back Tom Campbell, who helped harass Tennessee to a 16-of-41 passing performance.
