Biffle is dressed in a black ballcap, red and black jumpsuit, and a black jacket, a dark glass bottle held in his right hand as he raises his arms in celebration. Logos decorate Biffle's jacket and jumpsuit while a black belt fastened over the jumpsuit has Biffle's full name stitched in white at its center. The group of men surrounding Biffle are all dressed in tan hats with black bands and red and black shirts with the same logos as Biffle's clothes on them. They cheer Biffle on and raise their hands into the air while smiling. A large metallic trophy sits to the left of Biffle, held steady by two men. In front of the trophy and Biffle crouches a man wearing a blue headset and a black jumpsuit, smiling open-mouthed while an ESPN-labelled microphone is held in front of him. The only object in the dark sky behind the group of men is a large white board filled with logos and the word "Texas". The label on the back of the photo identifies the men grouped around Biffle as his championship crew.
