Tom Campbell was a standout defensive back for the Texas Longhorns in 1968 and 1969. He played a crucial role in Texas’ 1969 National Championship season and was named a consensus All-Southwest Conference (SWC) defensive back that year.

Campbell made some legendary plays, including a game-saving interception against Arkansas in the famous “Game of the Century,” which secured a 15-14 victory for Texas. He also had a critical interception in the 1970 Cotton Bowl against Notre Dame, which sealed a 21-17 win and the national title for the Longhorns.

His father, Mike Campbell, was a longtime Texas defensive coach, and his twin brother, Mike, and younger brother, Rusty, also played for the Longhorns.
