I was the one that started the "only home games" thought. I was wrong. That is my 2013 mistake. Glad there is only a little more than a month to go in the year, the pressure builds not to make a second one.

Which ones did we lose when scoring first? I know Cincinnati is one , because I was very disappointed to lose after scoring first given our long track record of wins and losses based on which team scored first.

You are correct, so it is TCU and Cincinnati. Both were road games so I get why mrydel was confused.

Rutgers was definitely not one of them! :lol: They were dominating us at the end of the first quarter 14-0.

Homecoming in Memphis?

It was homecoming in Memphis. I was King and Ponyte was Grand Marshall. We were celebrated on television. RGV was a featured alum and Terry Webster gave the invocation. The winning float was to be root beer but due to the cold weather we went with hot chocolate.

Another was held in Dallas the next week for those who could not make it to Memphis.
