Underwood, 'Little Pig' and former SWC official, dies at 82

FAYETTEVILLE — Harold Horton attended the University of Arkansas’ football game at Texas A&M on Nov. 24, 1989, but the Razorbacks’ 23-22 victory is mostly a blur.

“I don’t really remember but one thing about that game,” Horton said. “And that was the call.”

The memorable pass interference call was made by line judge Ronnie Underwood on a fourth-and-3 play for Arkansas from the Aggies’ 19-yard line with less than five minutes left and Texas A&M leading 20-17.

It’s a call many Texas A&M fans still complain about, especially because Underwood was an Arkansas graduate who played for the Razorbacks from 1954-56.
