I love the kid's hand gestures and slight frustration that he has to explain the 'queen' part of his joke.

Not just played, but beat Princeton 6-4 November 6th 1869 in New Brunswick.

Here is a photo of the Statute in front of the Stadium commemorating the event, the feet of which the players touch during the "Scarlet Walk" (and fans including myself touch for good luck on gameday):

That is a cool piece of history to have. Glad we get to play y'all at least once. Sorry we are going to have to beat you, but not too sorry. :wink: 8)
SMU's first president, Robert S. Hyer, selected Harvard Crimson and Yale Blue as SMU's colors to symbolize SMU's high academic standards. We are one of the few Universities to have school colors with real meaning...and we just blow them off.

Does this mean we will wear grey jerseys to honor Rutgers?

Neither team had a strong offense. Princeton fell to bottom of Bottom 10

I'm aware that this was satirical - but, 6 "goals" to 4 in 1869 would be roughly equivalent to 42-28 today.
