The Eyes of Texas:
|
"The Eyes of Texas" is the official Alma Mater of the
University of Texas. It was written in 1903 by John Sinclair, in response to a requ-
est that a song be written
for the Co-
wboy Minstrel Show. Since he was given only a few hours in which to come up with a tune, Mr.
Sinclair hit upon the idea of using a famous sayi-
ng of Colonel Prather, who was the President of the
University. The Colonel always told his audiences to remember that "the eyes of Texas are upon you."
This expression was fitted to the tune of "I've Been work-
ing on the Railroad" and is played prior to the
start and at the close of all Texas sporting events and at all other official University of Texas functions.
The original manuscript hangs in the Alumni Center.

BEVO
|
BEVO is the name of the University of Texas mascot. The
most-told lege-
nd says that back in 1916, either in retaliation over a humiliating loss to UT or in an act
of pre-game bravado, Texas A&M branded a Texas Longhorn (steer not football player) with 13-0, the score
of a previous A&M victory. In a perfect example of turning lemons to lemonade, UT rebranded the Longhorn.
13 became B. The hyphen became an E. A V was added then the zero remained as O. BEVO was born. Over the
years a series of loaned steers have done the honors as official mascot for the UT Longhorns. |
