So grandpa, how did A&M finally beat them?!..."

“Well sonny boy, the tight end fumbled near the goal line, and Greedy Williams picked it up to run it back for a touchdown to seal the victory, but as he was running, the referee felt sorry for A&M, and gave them another chance by blowing the whistle while Greedy was mid stride.”

“So the Aggie’s had life again, Grandpa?”

“No, they benefitted from cheating. Cheaters never win, sonny boy.”
