I played against Cedric Benson in 1999 Eisenhower vs Midland Lee state championship game. 🙏🏽RIP fam We lost to this Westlake team in the Astrodome in 2000 we were about to play Midland Lee for a second straight year in the state championship. Great days

RIP CB from Midland to UT 🕊

[@UTClassof]

wow, Houston Street played at Westlake? He was the son of James Street, who was the QB for the Longhorns in the 1960's. Both were great baseball players as well. This is really cool to watch. Cedric Benson was just insanely good. I cant believe he was killed in Austin on a motorcycle.

Anybody notice anything different about the commercials compared to 2021?

[@bJT42]

Yup, less propaganda and more family oriented, also more uplifting and realistic.

[@HawkingRegime13]

Less Jewish influence, although it already begun years before

[@ClassicCollegeFootball]

Benson's run at 2:04:27 is about as impressive a display of athleticism as you'll ever see at that level.

I had the pleasure of being at this outdoor game, and watching the Rebels win their 3rd straight state title, and be recognized by USA Today as the mythical national champions!

[@bJT42]

Awesome, they were an incredible team, extremely athletic and very well coached. Must have been something watching them play.

Long Live Cedric Benson

Pretty boy Westlake got owned by West Texas grit

[@slofever512]

Yes they did

[@andrewholifield2405]

My favorite part of this is the end when the Midland Lee coach is asked about what it feels like to when 3 straight and the reporter ends the question with, "You may not win another." Since this game, Midland Lee hasn't even made it back to a Semifinal Game much less a Final and it took them 17 years to just win 10 games in a season. Meanwhile, Westlake went back to a State Championship game in 2001, 2006, 2009, 2015, and just won its 2nd State Title in a row this year. They even made the Semis in 2012, 2017, 2018. How has the West Texas grit been working lately?

@@andrewholifield2405 And Midland Lee wouldn't have 3 Titles in a row if Katy hadn't got disqualified in 1998.

Cedric benson, Eric Winston, Huston street

[@johnhuffman9970]

Looks like the marines are they’re recruiting athletes, and there’s players on that team that love being a Midland Lee Rebel!!!! Until they had to change their name and we all know why!

[@ryanmccarthy8625]

Yep, because a bunch of leftist pusscake dicklickers got their precious feelings hurt over the fact that the school's name came from a Civil War general. Bunch of petty crap if you ask me.

[@ryanmccarthy8625]

Just imagine if either Midland Lee (no, I'm not going to refer to them as "Legacy" you snowflake pudsmoochers) or Odessa Permian crossed paths with North Shore or Katy.
