    Tucker misses 48 yd FG try at the end of the first half that would have tied the game.

    Stanford hires a graduate of Berzerkley, while one of their own is working wonders on South Main and goes ignored. A few things have happened in Palo Alto the last few years that make me think either Fenves or the ghost of Bill Powers is running that comedy club.

    I might be wrong and I don't want to rush an opinion
    but I kinda get the feeling you don't think much of Fenves or Powers?:coolnana:
    And of course You had no influence on them leaving.:yes:

    Tucker's next FG attempt is blocked. Ravens have fumbled, been intercepted, missed a FG, had a FG blocked, and were stopped on fourth down inside the 10. Other than that, they are playing a great game. (Duvernay had a nice gain on a screen pass). ;)

    Go Owls
    and Go MOB
    they’re a different breed off South Main and Greenbrier
    strange birds
    but make no mistake, Rice students are every bit as smart as those in the Ivy League
    and on occasion, their football team slays giants
    (There was this one REALLY RAINY game….)

    Best education in America for the dollar. UT is less on tuition & fees, but housing ruins the price. Plus every student at Rice is getting financial assistance not loans. Virtually every Rice student goes on to graduate school, particularly Baylor College of Medicine (across the street) or McComb.

    They were in desperate need of some warm bodies to play Southern Miss. I suppose I ought to root for the Golden Eagles since my dad was a Dean there from 1978 to 1986. (He returned to Texas after that gig.)

    GO OWLS

    It is amazing to think that Miss with population of 3 mil sent 4 teams to bowls( Texas sent 10 If I counted right. Most of any other state)
    too many Bowls?

    I prefer the old ”Y” logo on the helmets rather than the cat in a hat logo.

    I like the comedic effect of the triple D.

    Dumb birds beat the smart birds. Guess the early bird got the worm.

    And the irony is that the guy named Mordecai plays for the Methodists, not the Mormons.

    SMU’s been working the ground game pretty well.

    Football trivia—SMU invented the “Counter Trey” play, later made more famous by the Washington Redskins.

    SMU went for two and failed.

    BYU wins by 1.

    Good comeback.
