A bit of WilCo football history while you enjoy the bowl games: Among the county's fine football players is Dickie Moegle, a Taylor Duck student who made all-American at Rice Institute in 1954 and played pro football. Moegle became a national figure on television in 1954 at the Cotton Bowl when he was tackled, on his w...ay to the end zone, by an excited Alabama player from the bench. Dickie and Rice were awarded the touchdown as the referees ruled that no Alabama football player, on the field, would have caught him. Land of Good Water, p. 408.
