🏈 The Most Obscure Team Every Big 12 Team Has Ever Played

This scene from Friday Night Lights had grown men crying in the theater

In honor of Tarleton State playing the first Texas CFB game of the season today, let’s take a moment to look at the time UTA attempted to bomb the Tarleton bonfire, but ended up crashing a plane instead. During the early half of the 20th century, Tarleton and UTA were bitter rivals, so much so that games sometimes had to be canceled for the safety of students. Things would come to a climax in 1939 when Tarleton students attempted to prematurely light the UTA bonfire. UTA students were so angered by this that a pair students with their pilots licenses took 2 small planes with the intention of dropping phosphorus bombs on the Tarleton bonfire. However, the dean of UTA was tipped off and warned the Tarleton administration that angry students and 2 airplanes were on their way to Stephenville to attack the bonfire. Armed with this knowledge, the Tarleton students prepared to defend their bonfire. When the planes arrived the UTA students were surprised to see an army defending the bonfire. All of the bombs dropped missed except one, but the fire was quickly extinguished. With several students defending from a nearby water tower, the unthinkable happened, Tarleton student L.V. Risinger threw a 2x4 block of wood at one of the planes as it made a low pass and somehow managed to hit it. The piece of wood cracked the propeller causing it to crash. Thankfully, the UTA pilot was uninjured but had to be protected by the Tarleton ROTC until UTA officials could drive from Arlington to retrieve him. The football game to the surprise of everybody went on as planned the next day and Tarleton emerged victorious; 6-0

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐨𝐢𝐜 𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝟏𝐬𝐭 𝐋𝐭. 𝐉𝐚𝐜𝐤 𝐋𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐮𝐬 Lummus, born in 1915, was a standout athlete at Ennis High School and an All-American at Baylor. Despite having good grades and soon set to earn his degree at Baylor, Jack dropped out, it’s still unknown why he dropped out, but it’s thought that the war in Europe influenced his decision. In the late summer of 1941, Jack traveled to New York, where he earned a spot on the Giants roster for the 1941 season and appeared in 9 games. Following the attacks on Pearl Harbor by Imperial Japan in December 1941, Jack enlisted in the Marine Corps Reserve, and worked his way up to the rank of First Lieutenant before being deployed to fight in the Pacific Theater in 1944 as a officer in the 27th Marines. On the morning of February 19th, 1945, Jack and his platoon were among the first of 70,000 US soldiers to land on Iwo Jima. Over the course of two weeks, Jack participated in nearly nonstop combat, fighting to advance in the day, and digging in at night. On March 8th, Jack and his platoon were nearing their objective when he was wounded by shrapnel, but still managed to destroy two Japanese pillboxes. Following this Jack rallied his men and advanced, but were stopped by another pillbox. Without hesitation Jack charged the well-defended pillbox and destroyed it. Wounded, Jack and his men advanced until he stepped on a landmine, instantly losing the lower half of his body. Despite being mortally wounded, Jack attempted to get up and fight, but could only support his body up with his elbows. Not giving up, Jack shouted to his men, "don't stop now, keep going." The sight of this selflessness and bravery inspired his men, who would finally break through some of the final Japanese lines and securing their objective. A corpsman immediately came to Jack’s aid and and carried him to an aid station where Jack was pale and in shock from the loss of blood upon arrival. In the aid station Jack saw his friend and fellow Texan, Doc Brown, and with a frail voice and a smile, Jack looked at Doc and said, "Well, Doc, the New York Giants lost a mighty good end today." After being transported by jeep to a field hospital by jeep, it was too late, Jack died that evening at the age of 29. For his bravery, leadership, and actions on Iwo Jima, 1st Lt. Jack Lummus was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor
