re: LSU-Texas 1963 Cotton Bowl

I don't think we were a major underdog. The Tigers were a top 10 team. The year before we went 10-1 (losing to Rice in game 1) were #4 and won the Orange Bowl over #7 Colorado by 2 plus touchdowns.
Going into the Cotton Bowl we were 8-1-1 beating #5 GA Tech and losing to #6 Ole Miss (a power back then)by a TD and tying nemesis Rice.
Texas was #4 and we were #7.
You might be thinking about the 1966 Cotton where we were 7-3 and unranked and beat #2 Arkansas 14-7 snapping a 22 game winning streak by the Hogs.
