Texas Longhorns players stayed on the field during the singing of “The Eyes of Texas.”
The Dallas Morning News was there. From the Morning News: “While some sang with the crowd, others stayed quiet. Some put up the traditional “Hook’em Horns” hand sign, while others in the back kept their arms down. Regardless of who sang or just stood around after Texas beat Baylor 27-16 on Saturday, Texas school officials got exactly what they wanted: The Longhorns stood on the field together and it appeared nobody left in protest.”
