Edd Hargett was blessed with a rocket for a right arm. He could throw. And he did just that in lighting up the Southwest Conference in the late 1960s. Hargett set the bar with his passing proficiency at Texas A&M. By the end of his senior season, every school passing record carried his name. He guided the Aggies to the conference championship in 1967 and was instrumental in a 20-16 upset of Alabama in the 32nd Cotton Bowl Classic. Hargett aired out the stadium with 21 pass attempts in the first half alone to build a 13-10 lead over the Crimson Tide. He threw for two touchdowns that day and had 74,000 fans sitting on the edge of their seats from start to finish. Hargett and his teammates gave their head coach Gene Stallings one of his sweetest career moments by upsetting his mentor Paul “Bear” Bryant and securing Texas A&M’s first victory in the Classic in a quarter-century.
