Texas 16, #15 Arkansas 14
Saturday, October 17, 1987
War Memorial Stadium (Little Rock, Ark.)
Texas, down 14-10, started at its own 44-yard-line with 1:48 left on the clock and one timeout to spare.
In keeping with the great tradition of exciting Texas/Arkansas matchups, quarterback Bret Stafford
answered the call and led the Longhorns on a 11-play, 56-yard drive that culminated in a 18-yard
touchdown pass to wide receiver Tony Jones with no time left on the clock. Jones, who made the
reception just inside the goal line, took a couple of hard hits just as he caught the ball, but the 5-foot-7,
140-pounder somehow managed to hang on. The game was the first in UT history to be decided on the
final play of the game.
