1946 Howe Bulldogs

9-0-1, Co-District Champions

The 1946 team gave up 19 points in 10 games to become the best defensive team in Howe history. New coach Jack Osborne brought his undefeated record from Missouri to Howe. The Bulldogs had seven shutouts and finished the season 9-0-1. The 6-6 tie with Pilot Point (and a mishap by the officials), however, cost the Bulldogs a playoff spot. Howe shared the District Championship with Pilot Point and for the first time had the label of Co-Champions. During that season, Howe sported an arial attack for the first time with Jack Gattis throwing TD passes to Ned Estes time and time again.
