Mavric Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Quote Now, thanks to Mike Leach, the 1999 game can officially be added to that same legacy. During pregame warmups of that year's Red River Showdown, an underhanded script outlining OU's opening offensive plays was spotted on the field by one of Texas' student assistants, who scooped it up and took it to Longhorns defensive coordinator Carl Reese. To the heavily favored Longhorns, it seemed as if they'd caught an enormous break. "We were trying to figure out if it was authentic," Reese said. "We were in this state of, 'Can we believe this?'" They shouldn't have. It was a fake, part of a plot hatched by Leach and consulted by the Longhorns, who quickly fell behind 17-0 before realizing they'd been duped. ESPN 1 Quote Link to comment
