As soon as Walt had the ball I thought it was a score. Houston had him-- a great play by a great player. I believe that was Walt's last season and the one he made the Pro Bowl?

I was watching the game in the TV room of a dorm as a freshman at UT Austin. The whole room was screaming for Walt to break the tackle -- alas, he could not. I'm sure Walt would like to forget it, but I still remember that play. Although the Redskins beat us that day, we went on to win the NFCE but lost to the Vikings in the NFC Championship Game.

His ability to keep moving through a group of tacklers was amazing. I hated when he got injured and could not come back to play. Typical of his toughness was his leading the team in rushing in the 1971 NFC title game with a broken ankle! If there was ever a player who provided exciting highlights, it was Walt Garrison.
