ALEX’S ART | 88th GOODYEAR COTTON BOWL CLASSIC

ETBlitz.com photographer Alex Nabor, shooting for both Kilgore College and our site, had, oh, probably 250 excellent shots from Friday night’s 88th playing of the Cotton Bowl, this one between Ohio State and Missouri, a 14-3 Missouri win at AT&T Stadium in Arlington. Here are a few. Kilgore College’s Rangerettes performed before the game and at halftime. Later this weekend, we’ll have a gallery of the Rangerettes’ weekend in Arlington by Jacob Lucas and Jenna Lucas. For now, here’s some action through Alex’s lens.
