Since it's homecoming, any chance any of the guys from the '92 team could give a pre-game speech in the locker room? I would vote Mike Romo or Jason Wolf. Don't remember if Mike Bowen was on that team as his eligibility may have already lapsed. Could be a theme along the lines of "let's finish what we started long ago to get the Ponies back into a Bowl game." That '89-'92 post DP team didn't win much but certainly left everything on the field.
Hey man, I'm not here to tell you boys how to motivate your team... but perhaps having a bunch of guys come in before the game and say, "these guys thrashed us 95-21" isn't the most uplifting and reassuring thing you could do to get spirits up. There are at least a few guys in the room that will think... "dang, I hope they don't do that to us again."
