Message: [QUOTE="AZHuskiePop, post: 2351242, member: 1609"] UConn was decent Div 1AA at the time or what we now call FCS ? The game was televised ,apparently there was morbid national interest,we actually got jobbed on the road as it was a pathetic SMU team with limited Scholarship Players. SMU even without the death penalty might not have survived when the old Serah Williams conference merged with the Big 8. TCU , and Houston were purged along with them as ESPN only wanted 4 teams from Texas Texas , and AM were locks Baylor and Tech somehow made it in. Those are head scratchers but Im sure there was plenty of politics involved. Both TCU and SMU had more football success than either and I believe Houston only got in the Serah Williams conference when Arkansas left and was always a step child. I’m doing this from memory so I might have left someone out. [/QUOTE]
