Love it. Was Benners QB in 50?

Yes, he drove the Buckeyes crazy the 2nd half. He, Rote and Johnny Champion were the real studs of the game. Doak came down from Detroit to watch that game.

Never. Gone to SMU games since 1989. Can not remember seeing us win on the road and have probably gone to a road game on average once every other year. Guess I always go to the wrong ones

This question makes me sad - I count myself among those that have never seen a road win. Hell, I can count the home wins on almost 1 hand.

UTEP this year.
Was at Compass Bowl, too.
Wins away from Ford are always a little bit more satisfying.

I prefer to rephrase the question as to "when was the last, best road win you saw in person?"

Not counting last year's TCU game, because it is so recent, I nominate the following memorable wins:

1. SMU v. Texas, 1980 (20-6) Oh, what a game. I still have the video.
2. SMU v. Florida 1978
3. SMU v. Arkansas 1982 (Fayetteville) and for the SWC title (They had a live razorback then)
4. SMU v. Texas Tech 1982-83? We won in the last seconds and were ranked number 2 in the nation
5. SMU v. Tulane (pick a year, because we never lost to them when I was partying in the Dome)
6. SMU v. Ohio State (1978) (We tied them, does that count? Extra point try hit the upright!)
7. SMU v. Navy (1992) (Because Annapolis is worth the visit)
8. SMU v. Arkansas (1992-93??) (Little Rock) (Because the death penalty come-back team beat the Hogs)

Oh, and the SMU v. AM saber-rattling game in the early eighties...
About 25 feet from the Hillcrest track... With the boots so tall and the writing on the wall...

TCU 2011, then Hawaii Bowl 2009. My biggest wish: the 1997 TCU game. Things could be so much different, I think.

I saw one of the greatest road wins ever.

1982 in Austin, sitting (lots of standing) in their student section.

Last bowl game aside, I cannot remember winning a road game.
In the future I will have to travel along as my bride will not travel again for an away game. So many quiet rides home.

This year, we beat Rice on the road. Book It.
