Reason Bible Explains UT SMU Point Play, 1930s
Austin, Nov. 4 Coach Dana X. Bible of the University of Texas said he did not urge his gridmen to pad the score against SMU after a 34 to 85 victory. He recalled a past game when SMU used its starters for touchdowns, then pulled them, and Texas saved its depth for later. The Longhorns finished with their third team on the field against SMU, as Bible answered questions about starter usage.
