I was at that game. Louie Kelcher was all over their wishbone offense that day. He had like 20 tackles or something like that. Aggies were completely in shock after that game. To make matters worse, our band played and played until they left the stadium, denying them their customary losing game mandatory "yell practice". We also messed up their halftime show with the whistle trick. Their block T ended up kind of almost looking like the Longhorn logo.

Good Lord, I would love to have another Louie Kelcher on the team. He was greatness.

I was in that band. We were delirious - and perhaps a bit "medicated."

My third college game was with my Dad, and brothers at the Cotton Bowl in 1966. SMU 21 A&M 14
Jerry Levias runs a punt back 80+ yards for the winning TD :!:

My fifth college game was with my Dad, and brothers at the Cotton Bowl in 1968. SMU 36 A&M 23
Mike Richardson has something near 250 yards rushing :!:

I was at the Cotton Bowl as a SMU student in 74 to see SMU 18 A&M 14.
Louie Kelcher was all over the field that day on D :!: and one wing of the A&M band's T was 10
yards behind the other.....priceless.

could this be a trap game for aggies? they have Arky at home next week, and they're totally overlooking us. we've had 2 weeks to prepare, are re-energized under a new coach that gives a ratsass about football, anything can happen in college football.

Let's forget logical statistics. We are 29-44-7 all-time against the Ags. Besides the tie in 1994 we are on a 12 game losing streak. I decided to look at this game on the 10's. We are technically 4-2-2. (2005 does not count either since we lost 8-66 and it messes with my highly scientific analysis)

    1924 T 7-7
    1934 W 28-0
    1944 L 6-39
    1954 W 6-3
    1964 L 0-23
    1974 W 18-14
    1984 W 28-20
    1994 T 21-21
    2004 -
    2014 ?

We all know to expect a blowout. But maybe, just maybe, we upset the overconfident Ags and Kenny "Trill" (true and real). Anyone who nicknames themself "Trill" deserves to lose in Dallas tomorrow.
