In what amounted to an instant classic of a Peach Bowl, won by Texas 39-31, Longhorns placekicker Bert Auburn added to the drama when, shortly after missing a 48-yard field goal that would have given his team a late fourth quarter lead, he missed a 38-yard attempt that would have won his team the game at the end of regulation.
Fortunately for Auburn, Texas prevailed over Arizona State in two overtimes. But in the moment, the missed kick loomed large.
