What teams were there in '96?


Texas Tech and SIU. Those were back in the days when the shootout was a 4 team event. That was pre-Knight era Texas Tech (Dickey was the coach, Knight took over in 2001)

It's interesting to look back at the OOC schedules played in those days. 96-97 OOC:

Home: Creighton, Colorado, Denver

Neutral: Texas Tech (Casper), SIU (Casper), Montana State (Billings I think)

Away: Long Beach State, Saint Joseph's, UMASS, Austin Peay, Utah State
 
I was at the 1990 tourney helping Jack Nokes keep track of fouls...

Southern Mississippi (who ended up winning the tournament)
Holy Cross
Northern Arizona

Loved it when he announced the final score of the 1990 Holiday Bowl to the crowd. The thunderous roar was heavenly. Texas A & M destroyed BYU that night, 65-14!

Man, I'm not sure. I keep thinking maybe Texas Tech.. I remember seeing Bobby Knight..

Bobby Knight was there with Texas Tech in I think 2002 (outside chance it was 2001). I was selling programs and ended up in the tunnel at the end of the game, and caught him steaming as he basically ran through the tunnel to the locker room. We'll just say I'm glad there weren't any chairs in that hallway!
 
i went to that game against Texas Tech in Casper and Mr Knight was a hothead that night but we handled them easily, took my folks and had a wonderful time, remember it well, fun times, I sure miss the Cowboy Shootout
 
96 was also Texas Tech but before Knight got there. It was So. Illinois, NMSU and Texas Tech.
 
my very 1st Wyoming game, living in Buffalo, was that So Miss game with Fennis and Crew against Witherspoon and the Golden Eagles in Casper, I'll never forget it, as a bit too far to go to Laramie from Buffalo
