Correct......Jets Steve O'neal back in 1969. Cowboys Matt McBriar had a nice 75 yd punt against the Texans. That is second in Cowboy's history behind Ron Widby's 84 yd punt in 1968.

The "Walking Encyclopedia of Texas High School Football" (the Red Mustache) has informed me that Steve O'Neal was from Hearne Texas and also played at Baylor. He is currently a dentist in Bryan.

Sorry to argue, but Steve O'Neal kicked for Texas A&M. I'm looking at my OLD trusty Texas Football mag from 1966 and 67 as I type. I attended quite a few Aggie games back then............and yes I am older than most dirt!!!!!!
