They're 0-3 in State Finals games losing to Groesbeck in '91, Everman in '02 and Gainesville in '03

Didn't they tie somebody in 80's? SLC? Or was that the semi's.

They had the dubious honor of winning three tie games in a row in the 1991 playoffs:

Regional: won the tiebreak over Vernon 20-20
Quarters: won the tiebreak over Marble Falls 14-14
Semis: won the tiebreak over Southlake Carroll 7-7

I know the Southlake Carroll fans old enough to remember still curse and wince when the name Burnet is brought up. I believe that little streak had a lot to do with the UIL implementing the overtime system we have in place today.

I was at the state championship game the next year between Burnet and Gainesville...the entire Everman team, along with Corey Fulbright, were there to greet the Burnet players at the beginning of the game....it brought me to tears!!!
