No other mascot better symbolizes the spirit and character of the university than a Texas Longhorn. Since 1966, Bevo has been present on the sidelines of Texas football games and represented the university at countless official events. In the fall of 2004, Bevo XIII—the Bevo to see the most football victories in the university's history—retired, and a young Bevo XIV (pictured here) took its place on the sidelines to continue the tradition of one of college's most popular (and heaviest) mascots.
