Recently, the FWAA released their 75-year All-America Football Team. There were a slew of great names on there, including some classic players. (Tony Franklin of Texas A&M made the squad as the 3rd-team kicker!) We decided to dig deep and put together the all-time Texas Aggie Footballing Squadron from the Fightin' 1800s.
